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.
Things They Must Do
"Why did you sigh like that?"
"I thought you would scold me because I just used your seal without permission," Arabella admitted.
"As I said earlier, you can use my seal as much as you please. I give you permission. I'll write down an edict, so no one can complain if they realize it wasn't me who did those documents."
"Thank you," Arabella was amazed and touched at how much Ferdinand trusted her. She could use his seal for a lot of evil and selfish things, and yet, he was even writing an edict that allowed her to use it as she pleased.
"I'm the one who should be thankful. You did both my work and Raymond's in addition to yours. We both panicked and failed to consider these things. Thank you for covering for us. The Ministers would have been at their wits if all these documents were delayed without proper explanation. You did everything so well too. I might end up wanting you to work in my office instead of your own," Ferdinand praised and thanked her instead.
