Loser Lady From The Duke Family
A second-chance life trope with a slow-burn fantasy romance novel. ---------- Getting her second chance after failing at everything in her first life, Portia makes a promise to herself to get her happy ending and live peacefully this time. However, she can not escape from the fateful encounter and fix her past mistakes in order to achieve that slacking life. How will she manage all of that? Only time will tell Portia's long journey from a loser lady to soon-to-be Palmerston Duchess. ---------- Here are some things that you will find inside this story: 1. MC is an ambitious and kick-ass heroine. She will stand up and defend herself in her second life after receiving all the bad treatments in her previous life. 2. There is no harem route, even though there are many potential male leads. MC is aware of her feelings. 3. Romance is not the ending. ---------- Author notes: I will try to update this story every day. If you want a bonus chapter, please send me a gold ticket or coin in any sum. I will appreciate that and release the bonus chapter as soon as possible.

[Portia's POV]
"Father, you called me?" I open Anthony's office door and find him busy dealing with all the papers and documents on the table. I have a hard time finding his face because of all the piles of papers. Is he really a workaholic or is work just piling up lately?
"You've come, Tia?" Anthony stands up and looks at me through the piles of papers. "Wait there, I'll be right there! Ugh, why is all this paper getting in my way."
Anthony manages to reach me with extra effort and we both sit down on the couch, facing each other.
"So?" Anthony speaks first.
"So?" I repeat, find it hard to understand. What does he want me to talk about?
"How was your trip to Esterash? Did you have a good time there? Was there any particular problem?" Anthony narrows his eyes as if he is interrogating me.
