I Am The Male Lead's Child

Young Emiliette, mistreated by the household staff, suddenly remembers her former existence. She realizes she’s been reborn into the world of a story she once read, now the daughter of the protagonists.

Following the novel’s conclusion, tragedy struck when her mother passed away during childbirth, leaving her father distant and emotionally withdrawn.

Determined to escape her miserable circumstances, Emiliette resolves to mend their fractured bond upon hearing of her father’s return. But their first encounter shatters her hopes—his piercing gaze offers no warmth.

Undeterred, she devises a plan. First, she ensures their paths cross often, greeting him with cheerful enthusiasm. “Hello, Papa! Where are you off to today?”

Next, she showers him with small tokens of affection. “Here’s a present for you! Let’s become the best of friends—I’ll visit every single day!”

Finally, she lavishes him with praise. “Oh, Papa, you’re so dazzling! I can hardly look at you!”

Yet his responses remain indifferent. He dismisses her gifts as pointless, though she notices he never discards them. When she compliments him, he only mutters, “…Quiet.”

Despite his cold exterior, subtle hints suggest he might not despise her as she fears. Could his aloofness simply mask something deeper?
