When Freya Stone woke up, her head felt like it was exploding. She rubbed her head and sat up, only to be scared back down by the scene before her.
In front of her were rows upon rows of bags, and the floor was covered with countless clothes. Lying on the bed, she felt as if she were in a sea of bags and clothes. Except for the small empty space beneath her, there was almost no place to step.
Didn’t I die?
Freya stared blankly at the ceiling, her mind recalling the despair she felt when she was stabbed to death by a thug, the pain, in her heart making it almost impossible to breathe. Indeed, she had died, absolutely no mistake about it.
But the scene before her eyes wasn’t fake either.
So, did I time–travel?
Speaking of time–travel, Freya felt that this scene looked very familiar. Where have I seen a room like this before, packed with bags and clothes?
As she thought about it, Freya suddenly widened her eyes and sat up from the bed again…
That novel!
Two days before her death, Freya had read a novel titled “I Love You, My Mr. Lavette.” In the book, there was a minor character who didn’t even qualify as a supporting female character, and she had the same name as Freya. That was why she remembered it so clearly.
This minor character was the wife of the novel’s antagonist, a brainless gold–digger who only knew how to spend money. Her existence was meaningless, serving only as a blemish on the antagonist’s otherwise perfect life.
At the end of the novel, it was mentioned that the antagonist had been defeated by the male lead. The final scene depicted the minor character lying in a newly rented room, surrounded only by the bags and clothes she had bought in the past, the last things the antagonist owned.
Freya still remembered that passage.
“The only things Louis had left were his wife lying in the bedroom and her expensive bags and clothes. But Louis himself knew that this woman, who never paid him any attention except when she wanted money, would soon leave him with her bags and clothes. He had failed, and he would end up with nothing.”
So, I’ve time–traveled to after the novel ended?
Freya looked around, her eyes aching from the overwhelming array of colors. But if converted into money, it would still be a considerable sum for her.
She was grateful for the minor character’s past habit of shopping sprees, as these items were now left behind. If she had bought houses or cars, they would have been frozen or seized by now.
Rubbing her temples, Freya thought of the now–bankrupt antagonist and sighed deeply. The antagonist’s character, family background, and even abilities were impeccable. It was just that he was in competition with the male lead in business, and with the female lead’s help, the male lead had foreseen all his plans, leading to his bankruptcy. He was quite an unfortunate fellow.
The reason the minor character had married Louis was purely because her grandpa had once saved his grandpa. Out of gratitude, Louis had married her after she became an orphan.
The minor character was beautiful but only cared about money. After marrying Louis, she had no sense of being a wife and only spent the money he gave her on shopping. The two of them lived separate lives, and now that Freya had taken over, she didn’t have to worry about being exposed or Louis giving her a hard time.
Looking at the bags and clothes around her, Freya sighed again. This was probably the most luxury goods she had ever seen in her life, but unfortunately, she had no interest in these things.

Moreover, these items belonged to Louis. The money he gave was out of care for his wife. She wasn’t his wife, and now that she was here, she couldn’t just take the remaining wealth and leave while Louis was at his lowest point. Besides, the minor character had no relatives, and Freya had just arrived here with nowhere to go.
