Story Idea - An Unwanted Lady’s Second-Life
Neglected.
Unwanted.
Unloved.
Ignored by her father and brother, even most of the servants, it was no wonder she clung to the minute kindness of her half-brother’s closest friend, the Duke’s son. Since she was a child, she devoted herself to him, trailing after him in adoration and hero worship that bordered on a puppy crush. That devotion led her to being targeted by the daughter of Earl (FVC), who was skilled at making herself look like a victim in comparison to FMC’s awkwardness.
Everything comes to a boil when she is accused of attempting to murder the FVC and is imprisoned.
No one believes her.
Cares for her.
And in despair, she gives up, dying from pneumonia and malnutrition.
When she wakes up, she finds herself once more in her youth. She finds that she has just woken up from being terribly ill after waiting in the rain to see her father. This illness was what made her health so fragile the rest of her life and made it easy for her to perish in the damp, cold, dank dungeon.
At first, she thinks its a dream, but when she realizes its not…she plans. She will flee from her father’s household, to her maternal grandmother, whom she only knew through letters.
Maybe from there, she can build a life of her own…
