“I will never marry into money again, even if I have to become a villainess to stop it!” Sylvia, a marquis’s daughter, is dead set against marrying into wealth or high society. In her previous life, she was a commoner who rose to become a queen, only to be betrayed by the king and meet a tragic end. Determined to live a peaceful life this time, Sylvia decides on a bold strategy. She’ll act like a villainess to scare off high-status suitors and seek out a low-spec man she can dominate. She enrolls at St. Brydon Academy, where the kingdom’s prince is said to be a student but for Sylvia, marrying a prince is absolutely out of the question! Instead, she meets Conrad, a man known only as the “prince’s lackey.” Plain, unremarkable, and of low social standing, he seems like the perfect match… but little does she know that Conrad is hiding a secret identity of his own—?! https://www.cmoa.jp/title/282846/
