Plotting My Escape from the Villain’s Fate

If my sister had been here, she would’ve given a thumbs-up at the housekeeper’s cold remark.

She used to say that was exactly why Seong Chanyeong got cursed out nonstop throughout the entire novel.

Seong Chanyeong was a truly greedy character.

If there was something he wanted, he had to have it.

And if he couldn’t have it, he made sure no one else could either.

In short, he was the kind of picture-perfect villain authors love to torment.

‘And even when he got what he wanted, he got bored of it quickly and went looking for something else.’

Baek Dojun—Chanyeong’s fiancé—was one of those cases.

Their families were connected through business, so they were already acquainted.

But Chanyeong’s family held the upper hand, which meant Dojun’s side was the one in a weaker position.

Then, as if by fate, a dominant Omega—Seong Chanyeong—and an alpha—Baek Dojun—were born into their respective families.

Dojun’s family saw it as the perfect opportunity.

–Omegas are naturally drawn to alphas.

–Dojun, even if you’re not a dominant alpha, you should still be able to win over the youngest son of the Seong Group.

If the two married, it was obvious that the Seong Group would bring benefits to Dojun’s family, if only for Chanyeong’s sake.

‘And they didn’t want to miss out on the genetic advantage of a dominant Omega either.’

That was what Seong Chanyeong represented.

To outsiders, he was a sweet prize no one wanted to lose.

Within his family, despite being an omega, he was still their precious youngest son.

It was no different for Baek Dojun’s side.

His father repeatedly told him to win Chanyeong over.

–Why should I?

But Baek Dojun was one of the obsessive male leads in this novel.

The chances of him liking a villain like Chanyeong were practically zero.

The very first time they met, he said this—

–I don’t like you. You’re annoying.

It wasn’t that he genuinely hated him at first sight.

It was just that his family kept pressuring him to get close to Chanyeong simply because they were both young and of compatible traits.

The stress made him lash out.

–Really? Then I’ll choose you.

–What?

–Father, I want him as my fiancé. That arrogant little brat.

Unfortunately for Dojun, that remark flipped a switch in Chanyeong.

Among the wealthy kids around him, Dojun stood out with his looks.

And that sparked Chanyeong’s desire to possess something rare.

‘On top of that, it perfectly suited his sadistic tendencies.’

And so, despite not wanting it, Baek Dojun became Chanyeong’s fiancé.

Though calling it an engagement was generous—

In reality, he was treated like a servant.

Even though Chanyeong didn’t like him, he constantly called him to run errands.

He made him fetch things, attend to him personally, and even used fake illnesses as excuses.

No matter how much Dojun hated it, the engagement never broke off.

Even when Chanyeong met other people or begged the male leads for affection, his family opposed ending it.

So the housekeeper’s guess wasn’t entirely wrong.

Chanyeong had cried wolf so many times that it was believable.

‘The problem is… if I’ve transmigrated into him, maybe the real Chanyeong actually attempted suicide.’

According to my sister—who devoured every BL novel in existence—

Transmigrating into a character for no reason wasn’t trendy anymore.

Usually, it only happened if the original character was seriously injured or died.

My head started spinning.

Why would Chanyeong, who only kills himself at the very end of the story, attempt suicide earlier—something not even in the original?

And why me, of all people?

Then—

The housekeeper’s voice cut sharply through my thoughts.

“Since he keeps bothering you, how about we just expose Seong Chanyeong’s secret this time?”

What?!

I almost shouted out loud.

Not because of me—

But because I was worried about her.

‘Ma’am, don’t do that! You’ll get yourself killed!’

The only reason Chanyeong managed to hide being a recessive Omega was because of the immense power of the Seong Group.

His family cherished him, but the moment he was classified as recessive, they immediately agreed to cover it up as him being a beta.

Everyone in the family had dominant traits.

A recessive omega was a flaw that had to be hidden at all costs.

So his condition was kept secret.

The staff naturally knew, since he had to take suppressants regularly,

But anyone who tried to use that information for blackmail…

Was quietly dealt with.

‘So seriously… don’t do anything reckless…’

I swallowed hard.

Chanyeong wouldn’t fall just yet, but depending on Dojun’s response, things could go very wrong.

If he agreed to expose it, it wouldn’t just hurt Chanyeong—

The Seong Group would come after Dojun too.

‘Please don’t do it, Dojun!’

I’m sorry for calling you just some character in a dumb BL drama.

I won’t do it again, so please don’t make a stupid decision.

Maybe my desperate internal prayers worked.

After a short pause, the housekeeper let out a deep sigh and replied,

“…Understood. You’re right. I was being too hasty. I’ll wait a little longer.”

She got into the elevator and left.

Only after I heard it descend did I drag myself back to the living room and collapse onto the sofa.

“So the ‘right time’… means the moment to destroy Seong Chanyeong, right…?”

Aaagh.

I punched the cushion repeatedly, trying to escape reality again.

But reality didn’t budge.

Baek Dojun was already monitoring Chanyeong, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

That meant the original story was already in progress.

The reflection in the mirror showed an adult Chanyeong.

And he was already living as a “beta,” hiding his true identity.

Which meant—

“The main character, Seo Eunsu… I’ve already done a ton of horrible shit to him, haven’t I?! Damn it!”

Why couldn’t I have transmigrated before the story started?

Why now, when redemption feels basically impossible?

“f*ck, I’m stuck cleaning up all the shit Chanyeong caused!”

I yanked the cushion apart in frustration—

Riiip.

It tore clean in half.

“……Chanyeong is strong, huh.”

So much for thinking a recessive Omega would be physically weak.

Another piece of new information I never saw in the original.

Staring blankly at the torn cushion, I suddenly thought of Seo Eunsu.

‘Did he get hit with this kind of strength? Damn, that must’ve hurt.’

He’d definitely want revenge, right?

No matter how kind he is, he’s still human…

“Aaagh.”

Everything kept circling back to the original story.

After murdering a perfectly innocent cushion, I slumped back onto the sofa.

Grrrrr.

“Seriously… my stomach has zero timing.”

Dragging myself up, I searched the cabinets for instant noodles.

But this bastard Chanyeong—

Maybe he inherited obsession from the obsessive male leads—

There wasn’t a single pack of ramen in the house.

Is he even Korean?

How do you not have ramen?

“Ugh… I’m starving.”

So I opened the fridge instead.

Inside was a dazzling array of dishes, neatly stored.

Each one even labeled with the name, expiration date, and reheating instructions.

“Wow… braised Hanwoo short ribs, dakgalbi, boiled pork, makguksu… even homemade tangsuyuk…?”

These were dishes we’d only see at home on birthdays.

Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Western—everything was there.

All made with top-quality ingredients.

‘This is chaebol-level living, huh.’

For a moment, I even forgot I’d transmigrated into a villain.

I quickly grabbed a bunch of dishes and devoured them in no time.

“Ugh… I feel alive.”

After a satisfied burp, reality came crashing back.

How the hell was I supposed to avoid being sold off to some old, perverted recessive alpha?

“…Wait. Isn’t it simple?”

Something suddenly clicked.

My sister’s constant rambling about transmigration came back to me.

–When people transmigrate into novels, they always try to escape the original story, right?

–Yeah, yeah. Sure. Uh-huh.

–If that were me, I’d use everything I could. If I became Seong Chanyeong, I’d take his money and go chill in Hawaii.

‘That’s it!’

I didn’t have to follow the original ending.

And I could still live comfortably as Chanyeong.

“Let’s farm. I’m gonna farm!”

I’m leaving to live the farming life I always wanted!
