Everyone Was Mistaken.

Elia Rosette, the beloved daughter of a Count. And Guest, notorious for rumors of bullying her out of jealousy over the male leads.

People believe Guest interferes with Elia to keep the attention of the Crown Prince, the Grand Duke of the North, the genius mage, and the Holy Knight for herself.

But the truth is the exact opposite.

The reason Guest is jealous is not because of the male leads, but because of Elia.

The two are already in a secret relationship.

In public, they are more distant than strangers. Elia treats Guest like someone she doesn't know for the sake of her reputation, and the more she does, the more Guest is misunderstood as a villainess.

But when they are left alone, the atmosphere changes completely.

The sweet and proactive Elia, and Guest, who doesn't easily show her feelings. Two people who are jealous of each other, hide their bond, and share secret affection.

A villainess story on the outside, a pure love story on the inside. A secret romance continuing amidst rumors and misunderstandings.
