Male Lead, Don’t Follow Me!

One day, I realized I had been reincarnated as the female lead’s friend who dies trying to save her in a depressing novel. I steeled myself to confess everything to the female lead, but to my surprise, my words were muted as if to prevent spoilers. Frustrated, I finally ventured into the forbidden forest and shouted my secret at the top of my lungs, cursing the male lead as well. “The male lead is a son of a b*tch!” Though there was no way anyone could have heard it, rumors soon spread far and wide that Grand Duke Bishwaltz, the male lead, was gay. What’s more, he even launched an official investigation to uncover the source of this false rumor… “…Your voice resonates perfectly in my ears.” I think my life is ruined.
