PROLOGUE

I transmigrated into a novel and, in a flash, became the heroine's mother.

With the entire plot in my hands, I should have been able to conquer the world.

But then one day, my daughter dragged a man before me and announced, "Mother, I don't want to marry into some wealthy, powerful family. I only love Shane."

"Even if it means a simple life of poverty with him, even if he has nothing to his name, I'll accept it. True love is priceless, Mother."

"You made me study the classics, you forced me into this engagement with Tristan Devereaux. It was Shane who helped me realize I'm not your puppet. I want to be myself!"

Her barrage of vows hit me like a tiger's roar, and all I felt was a dull ache in my teeth.

Is this heroine a complete dimwit?

Did I transmigrate into a bootleg version of the novel?
