Refusing to Be the Male Lead's Second Wife
Episode 1
A girl stands inside a virtual world, facing a massive screen that displays her achievements from countless lives across a hundred different universes.
Each accomplishment shines faintly, carrying the weight of memories from other worlds.
As she watches the screen, her eyes light up with excitement. After all these years, the moment she’s been waiting for has finally arrived.
Every bit of her hard work is about to pay off, and the reward she’s longed for is finally within reach.
???
Finally, it's over!! *satisfied smile*
System 5217
Congratulations host for completing all your missions... *mechanical voice*
???
Now can I go back to my world?
System 5217
From today onwards you are free from system 5217...
System 5217
You need to decide whether you want to keep your memories or erase them.
System 5217
Most of the previous hosts chose to erase their memories to live a peaceful life, as their memories often haunted them.
???
Now, send me to my world.

"Soul" is ready to be transported to the real world.
In a beautifully decorated room, a girl sits in an unnaturally still position, almost as if she were lifeless.
A few sleeping pills rest in her right hand.
But suddenly that lifeless girl opened her eyes
???
I'm sorry for giving up on myself...
???
This time..........
I promise to live the life I've always desired, surrounded by the people I love. *teary eyes*
???
*looks down at the pills in her palm*
???
looks like I am back at the moment when I committed suicide... *sad smile*
???
I was really stupid. I took my life for a person who doesn't even look in my direction.
???
I was just a responsibility of him...... or a unwanted part of his life. 💔
???
While doing missions for the system I got to know that this world is a novel and I am not even a side character..... I am just the female protagonist's cousin. Who is not even mentioned.
???
*tears rolling down her cheeks*
???
No. I will not cry anymore. *wipes her tears*
???
Because I’ve promised myself that, from today onward I, Katherine Moretti, will live my life on my terms. And the first step is leaving this hell behind.

Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*determined*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*stood up and walked in front of the full-length mirror*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
....... I am looking like a dead person.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
While she was looking at her reflection in the mirror someone knocked on the door.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
Who?
Maid
Master is calling you. *arrogantly*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
......
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
( These people really don't respect me. But don't worry I will not leave until I teach you some lessons. *eyes darken* )
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
( this one?..... Ah! My mother in law's dirty spy! That woman really has no chill! )
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*walked towards the door, opened it and pulled that arrogant maid inside*
Maid
Maid: Eek!! *startled*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*pressed her mute point*
Maid
*screaming in fear but no sound is coming out*
Maid
( *terrified* m-my voice! My voice is not coming out 😭.... This b*tch what did she do to me. )
Maid
*raised her hand to slap her*
She holds that maid's hand and pricks a pin on a point that made her hand paralysed.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
What's wrong? Why are you looking so afraid?
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
Slap me! come on! Slap me! *sweet smile*
Maid
*run away from there in fear* ( she is possessed by a monster! 😨😭
I need to tell madam. What if I can't speak anymore! I can't feel my hand. 😭 )
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*let her run*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*smirk* That was satisfying!
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*sigh* This is why I didn't erase my memories....because I knew all the skills and knowledge I’ve gained all these years would disappear if I erased them.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
And *sigh* I also know these memories of hundreds of lives would haunt me everyday...
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
But there is a saying, no pain no gain.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*locked the door and went inside dressing room*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
Well, I don't have many things.
she took her luggage and a small bag and started walking out.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
Now let's meet him.
Riley came downstairs with her luggage, catching the attention of all the workers in the mansion. They looked at her in confusion, sensing that something about her had changed because her entire aura was different.
She was naturally introverted but had a warm and kind aura. Unfortunately, this made her an easy target for some workers, many of whom were assigned by her mother-in-law, and they began to bully her.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*looks at them emotionlessly*
Maid: what's wrong with her? *whispers to others*
Maid 1: don't you know yesterday she and the master had a fight. *whisper back*
Maid: *felt bad for Riley* sometimes I really feel bad for her.
Maid 2: don't be silly, just because she acts nice doesn't mean she is a good person.
Maid 2: if she is that good how did she manage to marry our master? She is just a middle class girl with a poor background.
Maid 1: but she never really bullied us though. And I even saw her being bullied by the maids madam assigned.
Riley just simply looked at their directions, and they shut their mouths.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*started walking fast and stopped in front of a door*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*knock on the door*
When she knocks, a man responds with a cold, curt reply.
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
*opened the door and walked inside*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
( This room still gives me that creepy vibes. )
She looked at the front and stopped a few steps before the table
He didn't look up just asked her,
???
What took you so long to get here? ❄️❄️❄️
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
( There was a time when that cold tone used to make me tremble with fear. But now, it doesn’t faze me at all. )
???
I am asking something. ❄️❄️❄️
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
...... Mr. De Luca
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
let's get divorce. *emotionless voice*
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
( Yes, this man, Mr. Lorenzo De Luca, is my husband. I’m his second wife after his first wife.... my cousin and the heroine of the novel died giving birth to their son. He married me to my uncle and aunt's request. )
Katherine Moretti-De Luca / FL
( It’s ironic that our lives are just pages in a novel for people in another world. )
Lorenzo De Luca / N ML
*finally looked up at her face with cold eyes*
*his dark eyes met with her mysterious pink eyes*
This is the first time in four years that he’s ever seen what his unwanted second wife looks like.
Because this marriage means nothing to him.
This marriage of convenience was only to give his son a mother.
