The Foreign Object was Me

I was once a candidate to become a saint, but I fell victim to a wicked scheme. Falsely accused of bringing down the duke’s family, my only ally, and attempting to poison my rival, Diana, I met a miserable end. ”What is this? Am I some throwaway character in a third-rate novel?” To my shock, I realized I had actually reincarnated as a minor character in a novel! When I woke up again, I miraculously found myself back in my childhood. This time, I vowed to live a righteous life. By mending my ways, I unexpectedly won the duke’s favor, befriended his eldest son—who had once met an untimely death because of me—and even healed the terminally-ill younger son. ”Great! Now all I need is to avoid any death flags!” But as I tried to steer away from the original plot, I kept getting entangled with potential male leads… And Diana, once known as the kind-hearted heroine, started acting strangely hostile.
