The Evil Emperor's Fragile Heart

Mana was a brilliant young lawyer working for the biggest international law firm in the world. With her prodigious talents, influential family and a perfect fiancé, her life was considered a dream come true…until a freak accident cost her everything. Or so she thought. After three years of being confined to a hospital bed, the man she had loved with all her heart told her about his betrayal as he slit her throat. The next moment, Mana found herself in the body of a sickly ten-year-old princess of the same name, in a world she thought to be fictional. “The Legend of Mars” was an ancient epic chronicling the adventures of the divine King Mars and his virtuous wife, Queen Astra, and their triumph over the evil, half-demon emperor Raven. Princess Mana was the unfortunate half-sister of Princess Astra, who died at the age of ten…and somehow pulled in Mana’s soul. And thus, Royal Princess Mana decided to make the best of her new chance at life and seek happiness. However, she soon found that what she had read in “The Legend of Mars” and the actual people she met were very different. Why was the divine child Mars an insufferable brat? Why was the virtuous Astra plotting nefarious schemes? Why did the brother of Mars look exactly like her traitorous fiancé of her previous life? And the meek little boy she accidentally rescued was actually the fearsome evil emperor …? But why on earth was he clinging to her and looking at her with puppy eyes?

Chapter 253 – Negotiating a Good Deal

Then Astra grabbed hold of Mana's shoulders. "Mana, you are a business genius, aren't you? You must have some way for me to earn enough money to pay the renowned Poison Expert Naver!"

Mana shook her head sadly. "Big Sister, actually I don't…" she murmured.

"No, no, I'm sure you do!" Astra insisted, shaking Mana's shoulders.

Raven clenched his fists, and controlled himself with great difficulty (and only because Mana lowered her head and shot him a warning glance, telling him silently not to take action). But that didn't stop Raven from wanting to grab this horrible girl Astra and throw her off Mana! How dare this filthy woman lay her hands on his precious Mana?!

Perhaps Raven's aura was a little too strong, but Astra suddenly felt a chill run down her spine and she hurriedly stepped away from Mana.
