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.

Chapter 889

"I'm sorry, madam, but his lordship is in another mansion," an elderly butler said respectfully.

"What is going on? I thought for sure my husband is in this mansion," Althea still managed to smile a bit since the butler looked troubled.

He explained to her that Claudius wished for a solitary life and didn't want to do his responsibilities as a noble anymore. He just wanted to live quietly in the countryside and not be bothered by everyone.

'So I am also a bother?! That bastard! It's not as if I wanted to marry him. I just had to do this for my family.'

Althea almost passed out when the butler showed her a map of the dukedom and pointed out where her husband's other mansion was. It was so far away. It was already close to the borders.

She still insisted to be led to Claudius' secluded mansion. It was clear from the Head Maid's words in the castle that she has to be where Claudius was. The Duke and Duchess also asked her to take care of their son.
