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.
Showing Off
Chester and Fatima bade their goodbyes formally.
Arabella learned from their thoughts that they were to ride their carriage until they reach the exit of the gates of Medeus.
Once they were out, they would have Marcus teleport them to the kingdom in Eliora bordering Zygos. They didn't want to traverse the roads on a foreign continent.
They didn't trust Eliora despite having the agreement to be allies.
Arabella understood though since there could be assassins waiting for them.
But Zygos had no particular enemy in Eliora except perhaps for Ferdinand after Chester provoked him.
Her father wasn't one to provoke fights they could not win either so Lobelius wouldn't dare do something.
Chester escorted Fatima to her carriage before walking to his own. They were riding separately as royals usually do.
Arabella froze when he glanced her way and smiled.
[I may not have been able to get a taste of her now, but I can come back later.
