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.
Arabella had to remind herself she was the older one there.
That she shouldn't succumb to her anger and the storm of emotions she was feeling right now.
'Is this my punishment for what I have done in my past life?' Arabella thought bitterly.
Was this how Ferdinand felt back then?
It was so terrible.
[What?!
She's just going to agree like this?!] Ferdinand frowned.
He finally looked up and stared wildly at Arabella.
But she didn't spare him a single glance this time.
If this was her punishment for her sins, she should just accept it, right?
What more can she do if Ferdinand wanted a concubine?
"I knew Her Majesty would understand," Carmella beamed.
But that smile on Carmella's face was making the anger inside Arabella burn boil.
She didn't like that venomous smile in the slightest.
Carmella was even more dangerous than Lucille.
Does this mean Arabella would have to see this smile on a daily basis in Riva?
