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.
Since Ferdinand had been so honest, Arabella responded in turn.
"Thank you for reflecting on your past actions. I was indeed hurt very much then as I painfully parted with the man I once loved. I had to marry you all of a sudden when from what I know, I had never met you before. But all of it is in the past now. I have moved on from my past lover so I have forgiven you as well. I hope we can make this marriage work well instead. I look forward to our future together," she bent down and kissed her husband's forehead.
Arabella accepted his apology for the past her, who was hurt so deeply by Ferdinand's actions.
It took a whole lifetime and now, it is in their second life, that she got to hear these words from him.
This apology meant so much to Arabella.
Her soul could finally truly let go of the ill feelings she once had; caused by how they got married including, the pain it once brought about.
Ferdinand sighed so deeply and thanked Arabella for forgiving him.
