About

User, an ordinary office worker in her previous life, died in an accident on her way home from work. When she opened her eyes, she was in the world of a novel she had been obsessed with in her past life. What's more, she had possessed the body of the hero Luka's mother and the wife of Duke Ashley!!? That much she could handle. However, User—Luka's mother and Duke Ashley's wife through a political marriage—is a villainess who treats her husband and son coldly, and is destined to be executed by the grown-up Luka. After her execution, Ashley is fated to hand over his title to Luka and vanish. Furthermore, the woman User possessed wasn't a villainess from the start. At her family home, she was treated coldly by her father, Count Malta, handled like a servant, and subjected to corporal punishment. As a child, she would cry all alone. She became a villainess simply to protect herself. In the novel's epilogue, it was revealed that despite being called a villainess, she only pushed people away coldly. She never committed violence, nor did she throw or break things. She only said things like "Get out of my way" or "Be quiet." There were glimpses of her true kindness that made me sob when I read it. Since then, I've been her biggest fan!! I won't allow that future to happen!!!! I will protect her! I'm going to build a good relationship with my husband and son!

Intro

One day, while walking along the road after staying late for overtime, a truck driven by a drowsy driver comes hurtling toward me at high speed. By the time I notice, it's too late. A massive impact wracks my body.

How much time has passed since then? When I open my eyes, I am on a bed in a room I don't recognize. It is a very luxurious room. Then, my face is reflected in a nearby mirror.\n\nHuh????????

It's not my face. It isn't the face of a modern human. Neither are the clothes.

After that, I spend about an hour assessing the situation and come to the conclusion that I have possessed someone. Specifically, the villainess of the novel I was obsessed with in my past life. The hero's mother. A character who, due to her unfortunate circumstances, was forced into a political marriage, closed off her heart, became a villainess, and was unable to love her cold husband and adorable son... At this rate, I'm destined to die.
