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.

Suddenly Back [Bonus chapter]

Raymond explained to Arabella that in the meeting Ferdinand had with the King of Crux, they learned that it was the nobles who had been hardheaded despite the King wanting to return all the slaves as soon as possible.

The King could not force the nobles since they were also his support.

The noble families were powerful so even the King cannot just demand that they follow his decision when most of the nobles were against it. Moreover, slaves were important in Crux so the nobles didn't want to let go of theirs.

With the King's powerlessness, it took so much time to respond to Ferdinand's letter. Some of the nobles were only alarmed after they heard there were more knights at the borders and that Ferdinand himself was already there.

A lot of the nobles were still hardheaded though. But the King knew that they were in danger so he asked to meet with Ferdinand.
