As much as I loved this one shot. I would fully be invested in a full length story about her parents. Her dad was too bad beforehand. But with proper meals and healthcare he surely blossomed into a handsome man.

Also, serves the 3rd prince right. Even if the dad was forcing them together for some old creepy reason, he was still a horse ass.

Ah well. He gets to live life, with his ‘true love’, scurried off in the deepest part of the castle.
Honestly annoyed the people who gave false testimonies weren’t punished.

Ngl, the noble ranking of FMC is wildly inconsistent here. First it was margrave (marquis), then earl, and then a count?? Girl's noble rank keeps getting demoted each page lmfao. Also her named changed to Victoria for some reason then back to Natalia. Translator was a bit high on shrooms

Apart from the "annulling" a promise (engagement) nonsense. And the lack of consistency with both ranks and names. And the periodic lack of agreement.

Another chapter with incorrect use of "queen."

  • the spouse of any royal is a "consort" (use that when in doubt)
  • the wife of a prince is a "princess"
  • the wife of a king is a "queen" (the husband of a queen regent is a "prince consort" — husbands of female rulers use titles a rank or two below)

Not quite her parent, but there's this:
https://mangadex.org/title/3013e1e9...wa-tsuihou-sareta-moto-akuyaku-reijou-deshita

Still a gen 2 story of exiled villainess.
There's also, Like Hell It's Okay to Have a Heroine Like You!

If you go for it, read the novel (the manga is one of the worse adaptions I've seen). The twist is that while the protagonist reincarnated into the assigned villainess role, her late grandmother was also reincarnated and tried to avert the situation entirely by switching grooms with the grandmother of the assigned first heroine — it went about as well as you might expect, as in, it starts a feud and motivates the first "heroine" and her mother to be evil. It's also notable for having two assigned "heroines" — the protagonist's half-sister and a "commoner" classmate. As the title suggests, the first of these is a real piece of work, so the protagonist actively maintains a villainous persona to block her (and gold diggers') attempts to seduce her cousin, one of the capture targets.

not only that, mom was heroine who apparently got bad ending, realized "holy shit I was the heroine lol" a little too late, still enjoys her life afterward anyway.

It's fun twist ngl.
Here's another twist.
"Villainess is the real heroine."

The mother was not a bad ending'd heroine, she is a good ending'd villainess that turned her fate around to become the real heroine.

Behold, an explicit in-story example of, "The term 'villainess' has lost all meaning", and a reminder that a broken engagement alone isn't enough to qualify. Beyond that, this is the classic Hallmark holiday special plot of, "Person in a relationship that they don't like meets someone that happens to like them." That combines with the twist of, "Someone was reincarnated, but it has zero bearing on the plot." Outside of an amusing character quirk, it doesn't have anything going for it. (The awkward reason for engagement I could take or leave, but it mostly seems to be there for comedic impact, rather than being required for the plot.) It just manages to escape being 'bad' by being a bit too plain.

My ratings on the series, from best to worst (with lines between 'enjoyed', 'neutral', and 'disliked'):
1-2, 7-3, 2-3, 2-4, 6-4, 4-5, 5-2, 6-1, 2-2, 4-1, 5-5, 2-1, 1-4, 7-2, 3-2 | 4-4, 6-6, 7-4, 6-5, 7-1, 4-3, 4-2, 3-1, 6-3, 5-1, 4-6, 2-6, 5-4, 1-5, 3-3, 8-1, 8-2 | 7-5, 3-4, 1-3, 2-5, 3-5, 5-3, 6-2, 1-1

I like the twist. The parent is the reincarnator instead of the "villainess", would read a full blown story about it.
In that case, you might enjoy My Husband Changes by Night. The protagonist's mother was a transmigrator while the protagonist herself died as a toddler in the OG!story. It's not an "akuyaku" story, however, the titular husband is one of the OG!story's villains.

The main antagonist is a fantasy combination of 20th-century mad doctors engaging in human experimentation — primarily Nazi, Japanese, and Soviet ones — his modus operandi is closest to Mengele's twin experiments: senseless and completely lacking the scientific method, with practically only civilian casualties and of all ages. In other words, extremely messed up and terrifyingly close to actual perpetrators of real-life atrocities. And it's all vividly depicted, at least, in the novel (I haven't touched the webtoon). Honestly, no fictional villain has ever frightened me half as much as the one in that work.
