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, I… I can explain. I didn't mean to…" Ferdinand glanced at Benjamin.
[Wait! Was it that bad? I don't think I broke his arm. I flipped him and sure he got hurt but his bones didn't break. Why does he have his arm wrapped thickly like that as if the injury was so bad? Or, did I accidentally put more strength than I thought?]
Ferdinand frowned as he eyed Benjamin's cast and bandages.
'Huh? What's going on? Why would Ferdinand flip Benjamin? Did they fight?!'
Arabella was horrified at the thought since she already knew Ferdinand was so much stronger than her brother.
[Why is her expression like this?! Did she conclude I hurt her brother on purpose?!]
"Ferdinand-" Arabella was about to ask what happened but Ferdinand's attention was caught by something behind her and he was wide-eyed.
