After Being Tortured and Killed, I was Reborn!

My Revenge Plan in My Second Life

I was reborn.

In my previous incarnation, I was the concubine of Charles Luker, the Earl, the heir to the Duke.

Charles had a girl in his dreams who had been tantalizing him.

Because of his dream girl's dislike for me, I was abandoned to a tormenting life with Charles' subordinates like a toy.

Eventually, under her instructions, I was tortured to death.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself alive again and returned to the day when I became Charles' concubine.

This time, I would send both Charles and his dream girl to hell.

***

On the day I died, it was snowing heavily in the capital.

It was the coldest time in winter, but I was left with only a terribly ragged undershirt, which was so stained with blood that I couldn't even see its original color.

I was covered with whip wounds, the tendons in my arms and legs all cut, and half of my tongue clipped out of my mouth.

I wanted to cry out, but I could only mumble.

Elizabeth Swallow stood before me and lifted my chin with her delicate shoe, clicking her tongue in disgust while looking at me, whose eyes were already swollen.

She snapped with heavy sarcasm, "Who can still recognize this is the beautiful and charming Lady Simons? Look at how hideous you look now. You can even give me nightmares."

She turned her toe and trampled on my face heavily.

"You don't know yet, do you? You are already three months pregnant."

The fact that I was pregnant with a child stunned me.

With bloodshot eyes and acute pain in my chest, I uncontrollably spat out a gush of bright red blood, which streamed down my cheek into the mud, instantly filling the air with the pungent smell of blood.

I was eager to reach out and touch my belly, but I was too powerless to do it.

At the sight of the scarlet lines in my eyes, Elizabeth giggled.

"Your child is so lucky that he has managed to stay with you even after being tortured like this. But he'll die along with his mother very soon.

"Your child will accompany you on your way to the underworld.

"How do a cheap woman like you deserve to bear Charlie's child?"

My heart overflowed with overwhelming hatred.

I had never hated someone so much and never yearned to kill someone so much.

I hated these hypocritical dignitaries, this unfair hierarchical world, and my own powerlessness even more.

I was so powerless that I could neither save myself nor my child.

I let out a hoarse and horrifying howl with all my strength.

Elizabeth took a step back in fright but was incensed when she saw that I still had the strength to resist.

"Anyone! Send Lady Simons on her way to hell!"

I closed my eyes with a smile on my lips.

Charles Luker, Elizabeth Swallow, if I had an afterlife...

When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the first day I was accepted into the Duke's Manor as Charles' concubine.
