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.
I Have No Plans to Get Married
In the past life, as far as Arabella knew, all Alwin did was support Ferdinand.
During the time that Arabella thought he was dead, Alwin was back in Estrella still working for Ferdinand.
Alwin never got married.
If he did, he wouldn't have been willing to throw his life away to revive Arabella just so Ferdinand could have a chance at finding happiness.
[I don't want to get married! How should I escape this?! But wouldn't my lord be disappointed in me if I don't take responsibility? No. There was nothing to be disappointed about. I didn't propose or assault Blanca. I just healed her. My lord wouldn't be disappointed in me because of something like this.]
It was almost funny how Alwin looked so horrified about the thought of marriage.
It was the first time Arabella had witnessed Alwin so panicked about something since he seemed to have a solution for everything most of the time. But right now, he doesn't have a solution in mind for this because he had lost his composure.
