Eurenia, the firstborn child of Count Vincent, is widely believed to have sacrificed her vision and speech while rescuing her godfather Euclid from a blazing fire. However, the hidden reality reveals she deliberately poisoned herself to inflict these injuries, using them as leverage to wed Euclid’s son, the powerful Duke. Tragically, she became nothing more than a pawn in the earl’s schemes before perishing from the lingering effects of her self-administered toxins.
When consciousness returned, she found herself transported four months into the past. Determined to rewrite her fate, she resolved to dissolve her unwanted marriage to the Duke and seek a genuine cure for her condition.
“Why have you been evading me all this time?” His piercing violet eyes studied her intently. “Is it truly fear of exposure, or do you despise me?” The crimson hue that suddenly flooded his gaze betrayed his turmoil.
“May I approach you now?” Even his ears flushed with emotion. The once-domineering husband who ruled with an iron fist had inexplicably transformed into someone hesitant and uncertain. The tyrant who once commanded without question now tread carefully around her, his demeanor entirely altered.
This unexpected shift left Eurenia bewildered—how had her ruthless spouse become so cautious? The man who once inspired fear now seemed almost vulnerable, his actions laced with an unfamiliar tenderness. The dynamic between them had irrevocably changed, leaving her to question whether this second chance held more complexities than she had anticipated.
