Leanna is an orphan, with no one to depend on, and must face the cruel world alone. She once liked someone when she was still in college, but she never had any luck in life—because that man never had her in his heart.

Leanna transmigrated into an Omegaverse novel and became an Omega female in that world, but her life only became worse than before. In the novel world, she became a wealthy villainess, and her misfortunes didn't stop there.

The original Leanna had parents and two siblings, but she never received any affection from her family. They all adored Athania Relica—except for her mother. Athania Relica, an Omega female, was adopted by Leanna's father.

No one knows that Athania is actually Leanna’s father’s illegitimate daughter. Leanna tried hard to win her family's favor, but everyone doted only on Athania. Leanna had only her mother's love and affection, and that was enough for her to keep going.

The original Leanna had a husband, but he only loved Athania, his first love. She could only rely on her mother and herself.

Her husband—also the second male lead—married her only as a tool to get closer to his first love. Leanna nearly fainted when she realized she had transmigrated into a tragic novel.

But her misfortune didn’t end there. Having an unloved family wasn’t enough—her new husband had the same face as the boss she used to love in her previous world. Not only her husband but his entire family shared the same faces as his real-world counterparts—except for his older sister.

Leanna stopped caring about her Alpha husband and planned to run away. But then, without her realizing it, he began to change.

The Film Emperor knelt on one knee and begged for his wife’s forgiveness. He even did a live broadcast to let the entire world know how much he regretted his past mistakes.

"I will do anything for you, but please forgive me, my wife."
"I don't need you anymore."
"I will let you split open my chest to prove my love for you."



Her family also began to change—not long after she started ignoring them.

 "I won’t let anyone live peacefully after bullying my older sister."
"I’ll buy anything for my little sister."
"Leanna is my favorite daughter—who says I don’t favor her? They’ll get what they deserve."

Hugo was Leanna’s former boss—a cold and unreachable man in their country. Hugo never realized his feelings for his secretary until it was too late. She died in his arms, and her death left him haunted by unending nightmares.

Then, Hugo was transmigrated into an Omegaverse novel with a second-gender concept. One day, he realized his wife not only looked exactly like his former secretary—she was his secretary.

Hugo began his journey to win her back. It’s never too late for a second chance… and to reclaim their happiness.

When my eyes fluttered open, the world outside the window was painted in hues of twilight. The clock on the wall pointed to 7 PM. Dazed, I blinked several times, trying to piece together why I wasn't in the guest room where I had last fallen unconscious.


Strong, rich, and suffocatingly familiar.


I shifted and instantly felt it—the unmistakable weight of an arm draped over my waist. My entire body stiffened. Slowly, I dared to turn my head.


This is not happening. This is not my fault!


"H-Hugo?" I whispered, as if saying his name would magically untangle this mess.


His eyes opened lazily, and that stupid, irritating smirk curved on his lips. "You're awake."


"Why am I here again?!" I shot up, though his arm around me stubbornly held me in place. "I didn't—! I wasn't—! I didn't hug you first this time either!"
