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.
Descendants [Bonus chapter]
Arabella stopped herself from smiling at the expression on Alwin's face after Blanca's words.
Alwin's mouth was ajar and he blinked repeatedly when he finally realized what Blanca wanted.
Blanca just needed more mana to recover instantly so she made things complicated to get it until it was Alwin himself who said he would give her as much mana as she wanted.
[This kid! She must have lived among the humans for too long to have learned these petty tricks.]
'Alwin, you fell for it though.'
"You could have just said that from the start instead of making things so complicated. I'll compensate you with as much mana as you want but not today. I have to heal Esmeralda too so stop being so selfish," Alwin heaved a deep sigh. Very much relieved that Blanca was not really set on marrying him.
Esmeralda perked up at hearing she would get healed too. She thought the mana Alwin gave her earlier was her part.
{You will heal Aunt Esme?!!}
