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.
"Oh, and don't worry.
I'm not trying to take Ferdinand away from you.
Let's share nicely, alright?" Arabella said in a playful manner when she recalled Alwin tended to have territorial thoughts about Ferdinand.
After all, it was Arabella who was an outsider and suddenly joined them.
It was probably among the reasons why Alwin didn't like her.
He may have felt like Ferdinand was taken away.
"What are you talking about now?
His Majesty was never mine in the first place."
Alwin didn't understand what she meant.
Or pretended not to.
"I'm saying, I know Ferdinand is very important to you too.
And even if he doesn't show it, Ferdinand cherishes you as well.
So, we don't have to fight since he loves us both.
Let's treat each other well so Ferdinand doesn't have to worry, alright?"
[What the hell is she saying right now?]
"I am just His Majesty's magician while we are here.
And I am just someone he happened to pick up.
I don't know what you are talking about."
