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 naïve 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 child. 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 in her arms. 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.
Chapter 684: Your Husband Did Not Tell You?
Arabella hoped they would understand, but perhaps they were still too young since they looked at her sadly even more.
'How do I explain this if they keep looking at me with such eyes the more I explain?' Arabella wanted to scratch the back of her head.
"Brother Benjamin said the Emperor seems to really like you. He had been looking at you all the time too since you arrived. Does he love you?" Lei spoke this time.
Arabella smiled at their youngest's observation. "Yes, he likes me a lot. He loves me. A lot."
"But he used his power to marry you. Everyone knows no one could say no to a marriage proposal from him," Nicholas pointed out and Eloisa nodded in agreement.
"Yes, but he had since apologized about it repeatedly and regretted starting our relationship that way. He admitted it was a mistake on his part not to try to woo me and try competing with Andrew as the others did," Arabella clarified.
