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.
The Shame of the Family
The men were executed days ago since all the proof against them was already there.
Sonia and the Head Butler were also supposed to be executed. However, for the sake of Brent and Monica, they were exiled instead.
Brent and Monica were supposed to go with the two. However, the Head Butler's parents were against it since the children were innocent and still part of the ducal family.
They begged the Duke to allow them to raise the children in a secluded area in the duchy so they wouldn't remind him of the betrayal of the two.
The Duke agreed as long as the children were taught and raised properly and if the children would rather be with their grandparents instead of their parents.
Sonia was shocked and horrified when Brent and Monica chose to be with their grandparents even if it meant they were to never meet again.
Sonia loved her children so much, but they did not choose her.
