“There was a lot of blood and the wounds were deep. Her leg was broken and had to be fitted. And I thought she might really die because a branch pierced between my ribs.”

It was as if the gruesome scene of that day was unfolding in front of Arsene.

Arsene stopped entering the room.

He felt like he was going to stop breathing, so he couldn’t take one more step. Arsene’s body trembled.

‘What’s the difference?’

Everything he never had before was ruined. And without her, Arsene lived well. He lived a life with no regrets. But why was Abella different?

It was like that before.

After making plans to blow up the carriage, he was afraid she would die, so he couldn’t even step out of her villa.

It was terrifying to hear of Abella’s death.

“You really almost lost Abella.”

Cade whispered into Arsene’s ear.

“It’s too early to be reassured because she’s not dead. Aren’t humans really fragile beings? If it’s not this time, it could be the next time, and if not then it could be the time after. Arsene. Can you really stand it without Abella?”

It was a voice like the devil that possessed Arsene.

Cade’s red eyes darkened. It seems that Cade was also affected by Timur’s mist. His violent hatred and anger flared up.

It was only the difference between revealing it or hiding it, and Cade was clearly obsessed with Abella. The ease and kindness he showed was only limited to Abella.

He wanted to kill Arsene.

Since Abella decided to return to Timur and continue her relationship with Arsene, no.

He’s been like that since Abella gave Arsene occasional glances. It is a human habit to live with the devil in mind, so Cade was engulfed in intense hatred for Arsene.

It still was .

Had it not been for Arsene, would Abella have been in such a condition?

Had it not been for Arsene, would he ever have been competing for Abella?

Wouldn’t it have been easier to protect Abella from the dumb curse of Skellus?

“.... Go, Arsene.”

Cade asserted.

“Lady Lyla will help you. Go.”

Arsene chuckled.

The eyes looking back at Cade were dark and dead. There is nothing left of life. Cade had seen the same look in his previous life.

After Abella’s death, he looked at him in the mirror, and it was the same with Arsene’s eyes that he had often encountered.

He had goosebumps for some reason.

Cade struggled to ignore the feeling and said.

“Otherwise Sirius will be shut down. I’m going to get you out of Abella’s side by any means.”

“What will happen if I leave?”

Arsene murmured.

“Will Abella be okay? Does it mean that she doesn’t have the Skellus curse? Do you think the people of Timur will forget about the Day of Skellus?”

“No.”

Cade answered.

“But, it would be more helpful not to have someone like you who can’t even control the monster inside of you than to be there. You still want to kill Abella, don’t you? Even though you don’t want to lose her.”

Arsene clenched his teeth.

Cade knew Arsene correctly. He was obviously afraid of Abella’s absence, but he wanted to kill her just as much. The heart was still there to destroy what he couldn’t have.

The contradictory twists filled Arsene.

Arsene passed Cade by.

“I warned you.”

Cade’s low voice reached Arsene’s ears.

It was late that night when Abella woke up.

She had no pain anywhere.

It seemed that she was not seriously injured, given that she was able to move without difficulty, but the pain that spread from her heart was squeezing Abella.

“I lived.”

Abella muttered in despair.

Fortunately, no one was in her room. She didn’t want to show anyone how ugly it looked, so she was relieved. Abella covered her eyes with her palms.

She couldn’t take it anymore when the floor underneath her collapsed.

The moment she threw herself from the balcony, she had no regrets. She wasn’t even afraid of death. Rather, she was afraid that she would survive.....

Tears flowed as hot as the burning pain.

“Huuuk.....”

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

Then, why has Abella been subjected to such harsh disgrace? Her family, who tried to kill her, and her mother.

Why did Abella have to lose everything?

There was no one on Abella’s side.

She felt as if her heart had been pierced by a deadly sense of loss. Abella pulled the blanket. She was not confident to throw her body back to death.

She was not afraid to die, but she was afraid to live again.

Abella sobbed as she crouched down like a wounded beast. Her broken foot was still there, yet there was no place to stand.

Simons tilted his little head and turned the bookshelf.

As soon as he was born, he realized that he had returned. At first, the mind of the young child did not notice the fragmentary of his mind. However, as time went on, Simons realized that it was his future.

There, Abella committed suicide.

Simons lost the fence that had protected him the whole time after his parents passed away. Simons doesn’t know much about Abella’s death.

However, he understood why Abella made that choice. The curse of Skellus, those who want to kill her, and those who, against it, try to save Abella. Meanwhile, Abella gradually fell apart.

He vowed never to let something like that happen again. By the time Simons gradually adjusted to his memories of the past and began to walk on his two feet, he slowly put his plans into practice. The first thing he did was to find someone to move for him as a young boy.

To protect Abella.

But this time too.

‘Aunt.....’

He failed.

Abella was breaking out from Simons’ gaze. As usual, he reads books with the help of the teacher, but a vortex is raging inside her Simons.

‘Father, what should I do?’

Simons let out a long sigh.

And it was then.

“Simons.”

Grand Madam Amerigo came to visit.

*

She knew that the mansion was noisy. Abella had attempted suicide and the servants were hushing, but a doctor from the Imperial Palace was taking care of Abella. The Emperor also comes and goes every day, so how can the mansion be quiet?

Grand Madam Amerigo’s hand had been holding crumpled newspapers for the past few days.

“.... Miss Abella is awake.”

“Ha.”

Lorelia gasped and exhaled.

She might have been better off dead, but she wondered why Abella came back alive. Lorelia pressed her head. Her mind was mixed up and she felt nauseous. She thought it was better for Abella to die, but she was glad she was alive.

It seems that the maternal love she thought she had abandoned still remained within Lorelia.

Abella attempted suicide and Amerigo’s bullies contacted her over and over again, but Lorelia never responded.

They have been threatening Lorelia over Abella and Simons.

However, Abella is no longer a weakness for Lorelia. It’s not a curse isn’t it? Although it has not yet been definitively announced, the names of influential figures have been repeatedly discussed in newspaper articles, indicating that this was a known fact.

She can’t even anticipate what Amerigo’s burden will say again.

This rotten Amerigo.

What kind of muddy fantasy has Lorelia been trying to protect?

Not knowing that her fingers were all rotting away.

Losing her husband and one of her children wasn’t enough, she nearly lost Abella as well. Only then did Lorelia realize.

That Abella is also her child, whose weight is not different from Carlo.

That she hadn’t really imagined losing Abella.

Lorelia’s fingers trembled.

‘Should have died.’

Rather.....

‘I?should have died.’

It was she who should have ridden the carriage instead of Abella, and it was she who should have died in the duke’s place.

Then she would have been able to break this damn bridle early. After Lorelia’s death, Amerigo’s burden has no one to press on anymore.

They cannot threaten young Simons, and Abella won’t be afraid of them in the first place.

In the end, Lorelia was the problem.

Lorelia put down the newspaper in her hand. Lorelia opened the door, stepped on the floor with her feet. A door that had never been opened since she saw the newspaper article was opened.

The handmaids guarding in front raised their heads.

They said, taking a step back from Lorelia, whose eyes were shining brightly.

“Grand Madam Amerigo.”

The bloody title pierced Lorelia’s heart.
