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 naive 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 son. 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 right beside her. 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 doesn’t matter. Because there is only one thing she needed to do. “I will ruin you in this lifetime too,” that was her hateful promise to herself upon realizing she was reborn. And in her second life, Arabella was bestowed a gift to uncover the truth. Who was wrong and who was right? Only time will tell.

Under A Spell

"How did they die?" Arabella had to know or else she wouldn't know what to say to Nadia.

"Starvation and torture, Your Majesty."

Arabella was wide-eyed at this. Not only were they staved, but they were also tortured. Dempsey clearly did it out of hatred and grudges.

"Was the death of his first wife and first son investigated?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. To prevent further conflict and misunderstanding, investigators and knights from Dempsey were allowed in Mt. Esme to ensure that the mother and son were indeed attacked by beasts."

They ruled out that the Safiro Chief's and warriors' claims were true. The deaths of the mother and son were indeed due to beasts.

However, Count Dempsey did not believe them and said that they were probably threatened by Safiro when they went into Mt. Esme.

"According to the elders, Count Dempsey raised the issue and requested investigators and knights from the capital of the then Arno Kingdom."
