Young Emiliette, constantly mistreated by her servants, suddenly remembers her past life. She realizes she’s been reborn into a story she once read—now the child of the main characters.
Three years after the novel’s ending, her mother died in childbirth, leaving her father distant and grieving, with only Emiliette remaining.
*I can’t go on like this!*
When news arrives of her father’s return, she resolves to change things. But their first meeting doesn’t go as hoped—his cold stare chills her. *…But I won’t give up!*
She tries everything:
1. **Frequent run-ins**—”Hi Papa! Where are you going?”
2. **Gifts**—”Papa~ Here’s a present! Let’s be close, okay? I’ll visit every day!”
3. **Compliments**—”Wow, you’re so dazzling~ I can barely look at you!”
Yet something feels off. Though he responds, his answers are always blunt:
*”The office.”*
*”Another useless thing.”*
(Though he keeps the “useless” gifts anyway.) *”…Quiet.”*
He’s especially flustered by praise. Does he truly dislike her?
