Via, The Villainess
Naviah Mendoza is a brilliant and elegant secretary working in a business company. Though she presents herself with grace in front of her boss and VIP clients, she is feared by her officemates for her bossy, almost villainous demeanor. However, no one dares to report her behavior since the boss favors her above all. But fate plays a cruel trick on her—one moment, she is walking into an elevator, and the next, she finds herself in an entirely different world.
In this new reality, she is inside the body of Via Shin, the infamous villainess of a drama-like world where power is everything. Here, wealth and social status dictate survival, and betrayal lurks behind every polite smile. Via's own family, an elite household known for their elegance and prestige, hides a sinister darkness that only the original Via had been aware of. That knowledge cost her life; someone murdered her in cold blood. Yet, for reasons unknown, she has returned, but with Naviah's soul inside her.
Determined not to meet the same fate, Naviah carefully navigates this treacherous world, playing the role of the villainess while secretly investigating the truth behind Via's murder. With her sharp mind and experience from the corporate world, she maneuvers through dangerous alliances, manipulative relatives, and high-stakes power struggles, all while trying to figure out who wanted Via dead. Was it her ruthless father, the Chairman who values power above all else? One of her siblings, who saw her as a threat? A business rival who wished to erase her influence? Or someone even closer, someone she never suspected?
As she uncovers layers of deceit, she realizes that every move she makes could either bring her closer to the truth or seal her fate for good. In a world where trust is a weakness and power is the only shield, Naviah must become a true villainess, not just to survive, but to win.
