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.
Not Back Yet
Once Alwin was done with the spells on Arabella, he sent Riley to report to Ferdinand.
In alarm and worry, Ferdinand returned to the palace just to ensure Arabella was indeed fine. He had to leave in just a few minutes though since he was scheduled to meet with the King of Crux.
Crux had finally responded to Ferdinand's letter and had begun sending back some of the people of Prudencia they had bought as slaves.
They requested a meeting with Ferdinand since his knights had surrounded Crux in all directions.
Ferdinand agreed to the meeting because his magicians discovered that some nobles were trying to sell off their slaves in other countries and pretend like they never had a slave from Valeria in the first place.
It annoyed Ferdinand so he rallied more knights to surround Crux and stay close to the borders.
Due to this, Crux was in a panic that they might get attacked any day so they finally wanted to have a discussion.
