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.
[What should I do?! What should I do?!] Narcissa only panicked when she realized Arabella had a lot of evidence against her. She thought there was no evidence, so she was confident earlier.
"I have asked Ivan numerous questions, so he had no choice but to tell me everything. It appears you have been bullying him behind everyone's back. And you are making him quit as my assistant. You cornered him to the point of depriving him of food, which, I had wanted all my assistants to have freely. And you even had him beaten up. Why?"
Arabella gave Narcissa a chance to explain herself.
"I… Your Majesty, that's not me. It must be someone else disguised as me to try ruining my reputation," Narcissa tried to cover it up.
"I have also spoken with Nadia and Odette. Odette had witnessed you being extremely rude to Ivan. She asked you not to treat him that way, but you began treating her differently after that. And Nadia had personally witnessed you having your men beat up Ivan."
