Reborn as a Mind-Reading Empress
Falling for his warm touch despite his usual coldness, she loved him only to be disappointed and betrayed in the end. When love turns to darkness, it festers to be poisonous and consumes the soul. The naive Arabella evolved. *** “Thank you for becoming my wife,” was her cold husband’s last words before he died, coupled with a smile that had never before graced his lips. Not on their wedding day. And not even at the birth of their only child. Emperor Ferdinand, someone Arabella loved so much, killed their son. She became a villainess and vowed revenge for her beloved son. For a decade, she used everything she could to make Ferdinand pay. Until finally… he fell to ruin! With her revenge complete, Arabella's life soon ended with her dead husband right beside her. But fate wasn’t done playing with her. All of a sudden, she was back two decades ago right after their wedding. Was it a curse or a blessing? It didn’t matter. Because there is only one thing she needed to do. “I will ruin you in this lifetime too!” This was her hateful promise to herself upon realizing she was reborn. But in her second life, Arabella was unexpectedly bestowed a gift to uncover the truth. Who was wrong and who was right? Only time will tell.
Capture the Culprit [Bonus chapter]
"What trials did Ferdinand go through to revive me?" Arabella couldn't help but ask.
"See? You just read my thoughts.
I will tell you after you fully believe me.
But before that, break your hairpin first.
I can restore it back to how it was before once His Majesty is here.
But I'm sure His Majesty would prefer to do it himself in Estrella later."
Alwin said that in case Ferdinand does not believe whatever reason they tell him, they can admit the issue about Renee since he had already reported about it last time.
"Your ability to read minds would also be more useful if His Majesty also knew about it.
We can use it for a lot of things."
That was true.
"But would it be alright?
I have also been wanting to tell him at least about this ability first.
But how would I explain it?"
Arabella hadn't been able to tell since this ability only appeared after she was reborn.
If she had told them, Alwin would have known about her secrets earlier too.
