▍Story
The series follows a young woman who was reincarnated into the body of Katarina Claes, the villainess of an otome game, Fortune Lover, that she was playing just before she died.
Her past memories are recovered after she was accidentally hit on the head with a rock while she was harassing Prince Jeord, as her prior self was infatuated with him. With the memories comes the realization that the heroine’s ending would result in either her exile or death, depending on whether she received the good or bad ending, as the villainess would repeatedly try to interfere with any romance attempts – particularly as the game’s Katarina has forced an engagement upon Jeord.
After attempts to avoid becoming engaged to Jeord fail, Katarina resolves to try to avoid the bad endings by thinking up ways to escape death as well as taking up gardening as a potential occupation if she is exiled. She also decides to try befriending or resolving issues concerning other characters that would result in her receiving a bad ending, such as repeatedly telling Jeord that he is free to end the engagement at any time.
