Sold to the Duke of the Empire, I still had hopes of a happy marriage in my heart as I'd liked the Duke for a very long time. I wanted to give the Duke my everything, even if it was just a political marriage. I tried my best to fulfill the marriage but Alexavier Agnes, the man I got married to never showed up in our bedroom even once after six months of our marriage. One day while having dinner we had a small quarrel and he dashed out of the room fuming and panting in anger. That was also the night when my screams and cries echoed in pure darkness as I was murdered brutally by some assassins. Why was I killed? Why did my husband hate me so much? Why did he not show up in our bedroom for six months? There's so many questions I didn't know the answers to. I shed tears of blood as I took my last breaths and swore to myself that if I get a next life I'll never marry this man again. ... Turns out God listened to my prayers as I woke up as my younger self... But I failed to stop my marriage with him. And something strange happened as he unexpectedly showed up in our room on our very first night. "I only married you to save the marquis's fortune." I paused before adding, "I'll divorce you in an year." His brows furrowed as he growled, "You can not divorce me." Why? Why does he not want to divorce? He hates me and I hate him back, divorce is the best option for us. Then why? Just what changed this time?
"But now your time has yet to come!!!!" the mistress said, unlocking the door of the cell.
"Your execution time has arrived. Come out!!!" she said while pulling her out of the cell once again, making her skin drag on the rough surface, scaling her skin and making her bleed.
"Good!!! The faster it ends, the more you all will be suffering in pain!!!" Bernice said once again laughingly as she came out of the underground.
"Yes, yes!!! Your life will end, but the curse you place on us will never work," the mistress said, smiling.
As they came out of the underground, the maids fell on their knees.
"Mistress, please listen to us for one last time!!!!"
"We beg you to let the duchess go!!!"
"It happened because of all our wrong judgments."
"If we didn't come to a conclusion in a hurry, this would have never happened."
"Please let the duchess go!!!!"
The maids begged on their knees.
