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.
Tell Me So I Would Understand
Before Lucille and her family could leave, Arabella asked to speak with Lucille alone.
Ferdinand frowned at this and only agreed if both Rendell and Alwin were to be with her. Arabella agreed and so did Lucille.
"Lucille, I did not know you liked Andrew too. However, even if I knew, that doesn't mean I would have given him to you. It was his choice to be with me, not mine. He pursued me and I fell for him," Arabella narrated to Lucille how Andrew had pursued her for almost a year before Arabella finally agreed to go out with him.
Lucille was shocked since she didn't know. She thought Andrew had been looking at her all those times after all.
"But I believe you have already gotten over him. Or perhaps trying too. I know it's hard. It was for me too. But maybe he simply wasn't the one meant for you. I wish you can also find happiness with someone who truly loves you," Arabella wanted to settle this once and for all.
