Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

My wicked mother brought a girl one day.

She was the Duke’s hidden daughter, Loretta, the heroine of [Duke’s Four Children].

I am Melody, the villainess who was punished with my mother for harassing her.

I don’t want to die like that, so I have to treat her well now.

I fed Loretta, put her to sleep, and played with her.

And then her response was…?

“I hope Melody marries Loretta!”

The endless barrage of affection led me to join her back to the duke and she said, “I’ll stick close to Ms. Melody.”

Have you met someone who is a ‘Fool for Melody’ more than her?

Why am I being loved when I’ve only been kind enough to make myself live peacefully….!

4+ It's hard to find anything original in the rebirth type of story, yet somehow it does have a special flavor

not because the MC is the daughter of a true villain, but because she's a kid with a deep and complex background, she suffered some abuse, but not the gorish extreme kind, she obviously was an unwanted neglected, probably was beaten a bit, and bullied by some outsider for her bad origins, but not only - she was also recognized as a victim by the villagers who were ready to... more>> taker in and protect her. Brings an unconventional duality of people who judge her for whose child she is, and those who will consider herself, for who she really is. That's alone gives the character a realistic foundation, and the nice thing is that it sticks, her personality is really fleshed out, she has a brave heart, some courage, a kind nature but also a relatively low self esteem linked to a strong awareness of her origins - yet she's not pitiful, she has a lot of dignity and she is genuine in her feelings for the little girl (cute !)

The duke family and household also make for a wonderful cast with rich interactions, a number of characters that are not your usual caricatural archetypes, but are also richer. i tend to dislike extreme reliance on book novel as a tool for the protagonist, but here, she's a little girl which make this absurd approach more understandable, also it's very double edged from the start : of course she get a glimpse at potential danger, but she also has presumption about the people in her surrounding : some time it's goo (the cold duke is a goo person), sometimes it's not enough (she reads the second son bad mouth correctly towards his sister but fail to see the same when it's about herself) sometimes it a bit bad (she obviously has some prejudice against the big brother because of her reading and fail to fully see his kindness) - all of which is fun ! The rebirth part : (as I don't understand dragon_reader's comments ;)) The MC herself has been born into that bad person daughter, she grew up as such and it's absolutely relevant to see her as a child, because even with some memories from a previous life that «felt like reading a book ». Her past life herself was a miserable teen around 15, neither an adult with life experience or someone with abilities to pick outside of some book knowledge. Lastly, it's not like she's been replaced with her past life, she's still herself and a past life is still just that, thankfully ! <<less

Liked the novel. Somehow seems MC has digressed to her child-age (11 years old) and her thoughts and behavior has become more child-like though she is mature for her age...

Excited to read ahead! TL is great too!

Fantastic story that is more nuanced than it initially lets on. Author cleverly hides certain plot points until they become relevant to the story, which prevents lore dumps and provides good pacing. This lets the story breathe and take its time with the main character, Melody, and see glimpses into why she acts the way she does; Being a child forced to grow up too fast, but ultimately still a child, reincarnation knowledge or not.

Melody has a certain relatability that reaches out from the pages and grabs onto some of... more>> our darkest emotions of loneliness, regret, and helplessness. But it isnt all doom and gloom as you can see her grow for the better by surrounding herself with an excellent cast, and in turn enrich their lives as well.

What a lovely story. I cant wait to see what is next. <<less

I like so much this novel, it's the classic abused kid that start receiving love but is so good because it's different of the others novels that have the same plot, the only thing that is bothering me now is because every guy is falling for her, I hope that the ML is Claude because every brother is in love with melody.

The story is cute so far the only thing I don't like is MC being weak. I'm done reading the 3 years old is a villain and the MC raised my standard high. I love strong and cunning MC. That's why MC being a crybaby here is unbearable for me. It's understandable coz she died too young in her 1st life and her experience doesn't help her that much in her regressed life. She is still young and live a lonely life both in her past life and second life.

It's... more>> weird like the FL feels more like the MC coz the way she talk sound like a regressor or a posessor when in fact she isn't. She's smarter and braver than the MC. Lmao. Also, it's funny like the author shoving the 'special MC' in her readers mouth because everyone thinking that the MC is special when in fact nothing is special about her beside being weak.

I can't drop it coz I'm hoping for MC character development. I hope she gain confidence. I will try to read more and give it a chance. I will change the rating if ever. <<less

4.2 ⭐

I have finished reading until the last chapter.

One thing for sure, I liked our FMC x ML relationship.

... more>> Claude is the kind of ML that I liked, he's not "cliche" (that made me cringe) like other Korean shoujo novel character. Our FMC got a pretty awesome personality too.

The romance scenes between ML x FMC made my heart flutter too! And it's a plus point!

About the world building and other characters, I think it can be developed more... like, I was expecting something more but turned out it was just average?

Since this was a shoujo-like story ofc there always be that one troupe where FMC had to choose between two options without telling other people, which is kind of cliche, and I kind of frustrated about it but fortunately it was not draggy (well it kind of draggy for a bit but it solved after some chapters).

If you're worried about the romance part, our MC and ML only starts to "actually" liking each other when they're already adults. <<less
