I enjoy reading manga and light novel. I even read reincarnation mangas but who would have thought that I suddenly discover an unexpected turns of events related to my previous life.
“W-What…is this?” I stuttered as I flipped through each page of a manga named DEATH OF THE HEROINE.
It was about the heroine named Kathleen Rose Reinhold. She’s the main character of the novel called Death of the Heroine. She is the only daughter of Cass Reinhold – the Head of the Family. She was sweet and kind but stubborn. Cass Reinhold doesn’t want a weak and kind-hearted daughter. That’s why he adopted an orphan girl named Ryle Devas. She’s an orphan girl with almost the same appearance of Kathleen Rose Reinhold.
This is the main reason why Cass Reinhold unhesitatingly adopted her and treated her as his own biological daughter. She’s not only strong-willed and arrogant but also stubborn girl. Because of Kathleen’s identity as the real biological daughter of Cass Reinhold, she felt threaten of her position as the favoured daughter. So, she decided to manipulate her birth certificate after knowing of Kathleen’s birth story.
She arranged everything like a puppeteer. On Kathleen’s 18th birthday, she bribed the doctor who’s in-charge of Divonne Rose’s secret pregnancy that she exchanged Divonne’s baby to the unknown woman who was attracted to Kathleen’s bright purple eyes. The doctor claimed that the unknown woman carried the real daughter of Cass Reinhold while the Reinhold Family carried the fake daughter.
There are documents presented as evidences of their own claimed and the unknown woman revealed herself in front of Kathleen, saying that she’s her real biological mother and she had no other choice but to exchange her for her life’s sake. Kathleen was petrified and couldn’t immediately swallow the sudden turned of events of her life.
However, the Rose Family doubted Ryle as they were the one who took care of Divonne’s maternity months and the doctor was just there for birth delivery. Even though Cass Reinhold believed Ryle and insisted to let Ryle be his heiress, the Rose Family stayed quiet as they couldn’t defend Kathleen because Cass Reinhold handled the Rose Corporation on his hands.
After that, Cass Reinhold threw Kathleen away from Reinhold Family to the Devas Family and announced Ryle Devas as her heiress and real biological daughter. The aristocrat families congratulated Ryle Devas and changed her last name from Devas to Reinhold. She becomes Ryle Rose Reinhold.
From that day onward, Kathleen Rose Reinhold lived as Kathleen Devas. She thought that her bad luck ended there but it wasn’t. Ryle Rose Reinhold still pestered her life. Ryle sent assassins to the shabby house of Devas Family to kill Kathleen. She didn’t even spare the people of Devas Family.
Ryle also secretly transferred the financial resources of Rose Corporation to the Reinhold Corporation so that she could easily manipulate the business firms of both the Reinhold and Rose Corporations.
The unknown woman, they claimed as her real biological mother, is Dianne Devas and her real biological daughter is Ryle Devas.
Divonne Rose’s maternal grandfather is Damian Thornvines, a known Military General in the country. He and Divonne Rose’s paternal grandfather, Leonard Rose, are sworn brothers and the two families will be connected through arranged marriage of Divonne’s mother and father – Candice Thornvines and Dexter Rose.
On the other hand, Dianne Devas is the daughter of Athena Devas. Athena Devas is a poor woman who lived nearby the Reinhold Family Mansion. Dianne and Cass were childhood sweetheart. Cass Reinhold promised to marry her after they finished College but Dexter Rose and Cass Reinhold’s father; Dominic Reinhold decided to merge the Reinhold Corporation, to the Rose Corporation, because of financial debts piling up.
Cass Reinhold couldn’t reject his father’s intention because he’s the only son of Dominic Reinhold. Being the only Heir of Reinhold Family, he should carry the burden of Reinhold Family. Indeed, the wedding took place after he sullenly broke up with Dianne Devas. However, Cass couldn’t easily forget about Dianne Devas. He secretly looked for Dianne Devas and they had a one-night stand after the day of his wedding honeymoon with Divonne Rose.
After nine months, Divonne Rose gave birth to Kathleen Rose Reinhold while Dianne Devas gave birth to Ryle Devas after the day Kathleen was born.
However, Kathleen doesn’t know the real identity of Ryle Devas. She only knew that Ryle was an orphan girl who was cast aside by her mother because she is the illegitimate daughter of a known rich family in the country but she never thought that Ryle is her half-sister.
Ryle Reinhold, who changed her surname from Devas to Reinhold, completely destroyed the Devas Family. Shockingly, Dianne Devas took Kathleen to the hidden passageway to let her escape from the assassins sent by Ryle while crying as she never thought that her real biological daughter destroyed the Devas just for Kathleen.
She knelt down in front of Kathleen and revealed the truth to her that she’s the real daughter of Divonne Rose and Cass Reinhold and Ryle is her half-sister but Ryle didn’t know that she’s the fruit of Cass Reinhold and Dianne Devas’s affair. She wanted to kill Dianne who knelt down in front of her but she felt Dianne’s repentance. She wanted to revenge but she remembered Cass Reinhold’s doting on Ryle even though he didn’t know that Ryle is his illegitimate daughter.
Kathleen and Dianne were about to escape but Ryle blocked the entire Devas Family territory and successfully captured Kathleen. Ryle revealed to her that she must die so that she could finally have the Rose and Reinhold Corporation because Dexter Rose and Leonard Reinhold stated on their will that Kathleen will inherit the Rose and Reinhold Family even though she was casted away by Cass Reinhold. Ryle was enraged and argued with Cass Reinhold until Cass Reinhold had a heart attack. Right now, he is in coma that’s why she can do everything at ease. Unless, the Rose and Reinhold Family found out that she fabricated her birth certificate and Kathleen’s.
Without wasting time, Ryle killed Kathleen with her own hands by shooting her forehead and Ryle also shot Dianne without batting an eyelid as if Dianne is not her biological mother. When Kathleen was about to lost her consciousness, she heard Ryle’s words.
“Your existence hinders me from my previous life. In this life, your death is my trophy”
However, the word ‘previous life’ keep repeating on her head until she reincarnated in another world.
