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 naive 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 son. 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 right beside her. 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 doesn’t matter. Because there is only one thing she needed to do. “I will ruin you in this lifetime too,” that was her hateful promise to herself upon realizing she was reborn. And in her second life, Arabella was bestowed a gift to uncover the truth. Who was wrong and who was right? Only time will tell.

Chapter 654: Spineless

Ferdinand was sure they would have competed a lot on who would be the heir and yet, they were not willing to step up now.

'Spineless. Should I just change the ruling family here? But I would have to send my people to investigate which among the households here could do well. Or should I just assign someone from Riva?'

While Ferdinand was pondering on what to do, a female knight stepped forward. 

She had the crest of Morbal on her armor. She was a knight of the family. But it was easy to see that she resembled one of Count Morbal's wives who greeted them earlier.

Count Morbal frowned at the dame who, Ferdinand concluded, was one of the count's daughters.

The dame knelt and said, "Your Imperial Majesty, this humble servant is but a daughter from a third wife but if given the chance, I swear on my life that I will do my best to rule Morbal better than my father."

Ferdinand eyed the courageous knight.
