00:00I am the most esteemed princess of the Atlantis Empire.
00:04The merfolk kingdom.
00:06My husband, Arthur Brooke, however, ripped out every single one of my scales with his
00:11own hands for the sake of a disfigured maid, leaving me to be tortured to death by over
00:15a dozen deep-sea monsters.
00:18It wasn't until my dying breath that I realized the maid was his true love all along.
00:24To stay by his side, that maid had slashed her own face eighteen times just to enter
00:29my palace as a servant.
00:31Every time Arthur looked at her, his heart bled.
00:33He believed I had used my royal authority to force her into disfiguring herself and reducing
00:39her to a lowly maid, making it impossible for them to be together.
00:43To get his revenge, he secretly slipped me slow-acting poison and conspired with that maid to sell
00:49out the royal naval defense maps of Atlantis.
00:52My family was destroyed, and he, alongside his precious maid, stepped over the corpses
00:58of my parents to claim the throne.
01:00When I opened my eyes again, I was back on the day of choosing my husband.
01:05This time, I looked straight at my father.
01:08I want to choose Julian North as my husband.
01:11Hearing my words, my father frowned deeply.
01:13Although Julian North is a prince of the North Sea kingdom, he is merely an unfavored, abandoned
01:19outcast.
01:20Isabella, are you truly certain you want him to be your husband?
01:25Yes, father.
01:26Please approve our contract.
01:30Under the gaze of all the merfolk, I walked out of the palace holding the marriage contract.
01:35Waiting outside were four young mermen, the husband candidates my father had selected
01:40for me.
01:42Hmm.
01:45Your Highness, which one of us brothers is this contract for?
01:49I instinctively looked at Arthur.
01:51He was busy exchanging flirtatious glances with Chloe, who stood nearby in a maid's uniform.
01:56A wave of disgust washed over me.
02:01Do you even have to ask?
02:02It's for our Arthur, of course.
02:06Everyone in the royal cap knows.
02:08Her Highness is utterly devoted to him.
02:12Isabella, don't think that a mere contract can force me to like you.
02:16I, Arthur Brooke, have sworn an oath.
02:19My wife must be absolutely loyal to me alone in this lifetime.
02:23If you can't manage that, I'd rather marry a random maid.
02:27I will never sign that contract.
02:30In my past life, Arthur had said those exact same words.
02:34For his sake, I had rejected all the male merfolk arranged by the nobles.
02:39Yet, Arthur went behind my back to sleep with Chloe, spreading rumors that it was my chaotic
02:44private life that had scared the other suitors away.
02:47Seeing my face darken, Tristan hurriedly intervened to smooth things over.
02:52Ahem.
02:54Ahem.
02:54Your Highness, are you going to announce your chosen husband?
02:57I turned to look at Julian, only to find him secretly glancing at me as well.
03:02Hmph.
03:03It won't be too late to announce.
03:05On the day of my coronation.
03:07With that, I swam straight away.
03:09Oliver wasn't entirely wrong.
03:11I truly did like Arthur once.
03:13He was handsome, exceptionally capable, and deemed the most charming merman in Atlantis.
03:19But he already had his true love.
03:21And as a princess, the last thing I lacked was outstanding merman around me.
03:26Isabella of Atlantis!
03:28An urgent call echoed behind me.
03:30I turned around, only to see it was Arthur.
03:35Arthur.
03:36I furrowed my brows.
03:38What is it?
03:39And little Duke Brooke, shouldn't you be addressing me as your highness?
03:43Arthur's expression instantly soured.
03:47Stop pretending, Isabella.
03:48I know you like me, and will do whatever it takes to have me.
03:51I can be your husband, but we must sign an agreement.
03:54After the contract is sealed, you can find your lovers, and I can keep a mistress.
03:58We stay out of each other's business.
04:01I was so angry, I actually laughed.
04:03Arthur Brooke, where exactly do you place the dignity of the royal family?
04:09Why must you make it sound so ugly?
04:11It's just mutual benefit.
04:13I have no intention of forcing you.
04:16Go marry whoever you please.
04:18What do you mean by that?
04:20Just as I was about to explain, Chloe suddenly rushed over, hugging my tail and begging incessantly.
04:26Your highness, Arthur is just a bit blunt with his words.
04:30He didn't mean to offend you.
04:32If you must blame someone, blame me.
04:34It's my fault as a maid for not keeping a better eye on him.
04:37When did I ever say I was blaming you?
04:41Arthur forcefully pulled Chloe up, shielding her in his arms and glaring at me defensively.
04:46Chloe, you don't need to beg her.
04:48If she hadn't abused her power to ruin your pearl jewelry shop, you wouldn't have been forced to work as
04:53a lowe maid at the Duke's estate in the first place.
04:57I was thoroughly amused by this fool's audacity.
05:01In my previous life, Arthur was convinced I was the one who bankrupted Chloe's shop and hated me for the
05:08rest of his life for it.
05:10When I was dying, he interrogated me about it.
05:13But back then, I hadn't even heard of Chloe's name.
05:16I tried to explain and even pulled out the old judicial records as proof.
05:20But he claimed I had forged everything in advance, purely out of fear that he would one day discover the
05:26truth.
05:28Given a second chance at life, I couldn't be bothered to tolerate him.
05:33With her level of financial management, never mind running a shop, it's a miracle she didn't get scammed into complete
05:39bankruptcy.
05:40I turned to leave, walking right into the nobles arriving for the banquet.
05:45Before I could even greet them, Arthur hurriedly caught up with me.
05:48Isabella, who are you insulting?
05:51Fine, if you want me to marry you, I will.
05:54But as compensation for insulting Chloe, I demand that Chloe becomes my mistress.
06:00Besides, as the future Duke, what's wrong with having a few mistresses?
06:05If you truly like me, you should accept me embracing other women.
06:08My chest ached in spasms. Arthur had always been like this.
06:12He never gave a damn about my dignity.
06:15Take as many mistresses as you like.
06:18It's none of my business.
06:22Fine, you said it yourself.
06:27Arthur wasn't joking around.
06:29Upon returning to the Duke's estate, he immediately began frantically preparing the ceremony to officially take in a mistress.
06:37Cartloads of haute couture dresses and chests of deep sea pearls were all sent straight into Chloe's room.
06:44The Duchess finally couldn't take it anymore.
06:47She brought her guards and cornered Chloe and Arthur.
06:50Tie this slut up and chop off her tail.
06:53Let's see if she still dares to seduce my son.
06:57Mother, you and Isabella are going too far.
06:59Forcing Chloe to close her shop was bad enough and now you want to kill her?
07:03If you dare touch a scale on her today, I'll go straight to His Majesty the Sea King and expose
07:08you both.
07:10Let her go. Arthur and I have nothing to do with each other anymore.
07:14Your Highness, please don't say that.
07:21You, hurry up and beg Her Highness for forgiveness!
07:26Enough!
07:29I won't be attending on the day of your wedding.
07:33Take this pearl bracelet as my gift to you both.
07:36Hmph. Stop pretending to be magnanimous.
07:38You're just terrified I'll report you to His Majesty.
07:42As expected, no matter what happens, he will always think it's my fault.
07:53I genuinely wish you both the best.
07:55Hmph. Isabella, you'd better be telling the truth.
08:01Let's go. I'll take you to decorate our room.
08:04Watching their intimate display, memories of my past life surged back.
08:09Arthur once told me...
08:11If two people truly love each other, the bedroom must be personally decorated by the husband to make it warm
08:17and cozy.
08:18I had been so deeply moved, completely letting my guard down around him.
08:23I never imagined he was using the opportunity to steal the Kingdom's naval deployment maps and sell them to the
08:29enemy forces.
08:31The tragic image of my parents' gruesome deaths flashed before my eyes.
08:35I remembered my father holding my hand right before he died, telling me...
08:39My daughter, if I could do it all over again, I would marry you to a bastard like Arthur.
08:46The sea god had granted me a second chance.
08:49I absolutely could not repeat the same mistakes.
08:54Your Highness, recently some other sea regions sent over some magic fireworks.
09:00I heard they are quite beautiful.
09:02Shall I have a servant's take you to see them?
09:05No need.
09:06I'll go see them myself.
09:10In my personal coral garden, streams of magic-infused energy bursts soared upward,
09:16blooming into dazzling colors in the deep sea.
09:19They truly looked exactly like the fireworks I had once seen in the human world.
09:24Yet the scene beneath the fireworks completely disgusted me.
09:28Arthur gently held Chloe as they leaned against each other,
09:31admiring my fireworks in my coral garden.
09:35Chloe, thank you for the fireworks you made for me.
09:38Arthur, for you, even if it meant draining all my magic to make these fireworks,
09:42I would do it willingly.
09:46How did I not realize how utterly shameless they were in my past life?
09:50Forget it. Father told me to stay away from Arthur.
09:54Just as I was about to turn and leave,
09:56suddenly a stray firework veered off course and landed right in front of me.
10:01In an instant, a massive coral reef collapsed with a deafening crash.
10:05I dodged to the side, but the falling reef knocked into another,
10:09and I found myself trapped between the collapsing structures.
10:13Terrified, I reached out my hand toward Arthur.
10:17Arthur, save me.
10:20Arthur looked at me and was just about to swim over,
10:23but Chloe suddenly closed her eyes and fainted right into his arms.
10:28Arthur stopped instantly, holding Chloe tightly.
10:31Somebody come quick! Save Chloe!
10:37I stared at Arthur in sheer disbelief.
10:39I was on the brink of death, yet he was fussing over a girl faking a fainting spell.
10:44In that moment of distraction, a massive chunk of coral smashed onto my tail.
10:49Arthur, do you want the entire Brook family to be buried with you?
10:54Arthur glances at me hesitantly.
10:56Chloe let out a soft whimper, her trembling hands reaching up to rest on Arthur's shoulders.
11:02Arthur, I feel so awful.
11:05It's okay, Chloe, I'm right here.
11:08Another enormous coral reef plummeted toward me.
11:11In the split second before it hit, I caught the provocative, triumphant glare in Chloe's eyes.
11:18I closed my eyes in despair, but the crushing pain I expected never came.
11:23Instead, I felt someone scoop me into their arms.
11:26I cracked my eyes open and realized I was being held by Julian.
11:32The End
11:33Tristan hurried over with the guards.
11:35My heart was brimming with bitterness.
11:37I had thought that even though Arthur didn't love me, he at least knew what was at stake.
11:41I never expected that in front of Chloe.
11:43Not just me, but his entire Ducal family's survival was pushed to the back of his mind, trembling with lingering
11:48fear.
11:49I gripped Julian's sleeve tightly.
11:51He held me close, his hand gently patting my back.
11:54Don't be afraid.
11:55I'm here.
11:56When Duke Brooke heard what happened, he nearly fainted from fright.
12:00He ordered his men to whip Chloe ruthlessly and threw her into the dark reef water dungeon at the bottom
12:05of the estate,
12:06forbidding anyone from visiting her.
12:07I was resting in my bedroom when Arthur barged right in, pointing a furious finger at-
12:12Isabella, I never thought you could be so narrow-minded.
12:15Chloe was right.
12:16You're just looking for opportunities to get revenge.
12:18He was always like this, pinning every single thing on me.
12:24Arthur, I was injured too.
12:26So what if you're injured?
12:27You're a princess.
12:29Even if you get hurt, there's a dedicated medical team treating you, but Chloe only has me.
12:34Besides, didn't Julian save you?
12:36Can you stop being so dramatic?
12:39How did I ever fall for such a moron in my past life?
12:43Thinking my silence meant I was reflecting on my mistakes.
12:46Arthur grew smug again.
12:47Hmm.
12:48Scared now?
12:48If you're scared, come with me to apologize to Chloe, and then hire the best medical team to treat her.
12:54In your dreams.
12:56Isabella, if you keep being so stubbornly obsessed with me, I swear I will publicly reject being your husband at
13:01your coronation.
13:02I dare you to try.
13:04My chosen husband was never going to be him.
13:06For my coronation, my father generously offered his own pearl palace to host the ceremony.
13:11Under the watchful eyes of the merfolk, I wore my resplendent princess gown and swam toward the throne.
13:17Arthur's gaze swept over me, and he rolled his eyes.
13:20Who do you think the eldest princess husband will be?
13:23Isn't it obvious?
13:24It's definitely the young duke.
13:26Haven't you seen the princess constantly running to the duke's estate lately?
13:28The young duke is ambitious, yes.
13:30But don't discount the quiet ones.
13:32The scholar, perhaps?
13:34Anyone is fine, as long as it's not that prince from the North Sea.
13:37Why?
13:37A prince and a princess.
13:39It's a perfect match.
13:42Prince is just a nice title.
13:44Put bluntly, he's a piece of trash abandoned by the North Sea kingdom, a nobody that no one cares about.
13:48The murmurs grew louder, and Arthur's face grew increasingly smug.
13:53Tristan and Oliver exchanged a glance, then tactfully looked away.
13:58Only Julian watched from a distance, lost in his own thoughts.
14:02After the crowning, the presentation of the royal scepter, and a series of tedious protocols,
14:08the Master of Ceremonies brought out the other contract.
14:13Now, I shall announce her highness, the princess's chosen husband.
14:18Wait!
14:19Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Arthur suddenly stepped forward,
14:23walked to the center of the hall, and gave my father a fist-and-palm salute.
14:28Your Majesty Sea King, I refuse to become Princess Isabella's husband.
14:33After declaring this, Arthur lifted his head, but his eyes darted toward the outside of the hall.
14:38I glanced sideways, and spotted a familiar figure standing by the entrance.
14:43It was Chloe, just as I expected.
14:45She cast a provocative glance my way.
14:48But this time, they were in for a massive disappointment.
14:52Isabella, what is the meaning of this?
14:56My apologies, father.
15:02I suppose I wasn't clear enough with the young Duke, Brooke.
15:07Isabella, what are you talking about?
15:09Despite Arthur's tense expression, I took the contract from the host.
15:13The husband I have chosen is Prince Julia of the North Sea.
15:18An uproar erupts in the hall.
15:20Your Highness, did you misspeed? Haven't you always-
15:28You idiot! Hurry up and apologize to her mightness!
15:33There's no need!
15:35Under everyone's watchful eyes, I slowly swam over to Julian.
15:40Will you be my husband?
15:43Me?
15:44What? You don't want to?
15:46I do!
15:49Thank you, Your Majesty the King.
15:51I swear I will treat Princess Isabella well.
15:53I led Julian up the high platform hand in hand, casting a disdainful glance at the stunned Arthur below.
16:02Half his face was swollen and red, and he awkwardly endured the scrutinizing gazes of the nobles.
16:09He wanted to publicly reject me, and he got his chance.
16:13So why didn't he look happy at all?
16:19Julian's palm was sweating.
16:21I gave his hand a gentle squeeze.
16:25Don't be nervous.
16:27Julian quickly nodded, then turned his face away.
16:30But I still caught sight of the tips of his ears, which were entirely flushed red.
16:36After the ceremony, Arthur blocked my path, his face dark.
16:41When did this happen?
16:43What?
16:45You and that bastard Julian from the North Sea!
16:49When did you two hook up?
16:51Arthur, Brooke, who gave you the right to speak to a princess like that?
16:55You!
16:56Arthur's face twisted in displeasure.
16:58After a long pause, he finally spoke in an impatient tone.
17:03Enough, Isabella. Let's both take a step back.
17:06I won't make Chloe my mistress.
17:08I'll just keep her by my side as my personal maid.
17:11Hurry up and annul the contract with Julian.
17:14Let me be your husband.
17:15He's just garbage.
17:17He's not worthy of you.
17:19Julian silently lowered his head.
17:21I glanced at him, then took a step forward.
17:23I slapped Arthur hard across the face.
17:27Arthur stared at me in disbelief.
17:29You have no right to evaluate my husband.
17:32With that, I took Julian's hand, our fingers interlaced, and slowly walked out of the banquet hall.
17:37Along the way, Julian didn't say a word.
17:39I stopped and looked at him with a smile.
17:42You don't look very happy.
17:44Julian shook his head.
17:48I'm your wife now.
17:50You can tell me anything.
17:52Julian bit his lip, as if he had made up his mind with great difficulty.
17:56Your Highness, why did you choose me to be your husband?
18:00I paused, a little confused.
18:03Why do you ask?
18:07As you know, Your Highness, I am just a prince in name only.
18:12Seeing him so insecure, I suddenly found him quite endearing.
18:16I don't care about that.
18:18Shouldn't you marry someone you like?
18:20Julian didn't seem to expect me to say that.
18:22He lifted his head, looking at me cautiously.
18:26Then, Your Highness, you...
18:28What is it?
18:32When did you start liking me?
18:35I reach out and gently stroke his face.
18:39In my past life.
18:43Julian lowered his head, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.
18:47Huh. Huh.
18:49Your Highness, you really have a great sense of humor.
18:52I sighed helplessly.
18:53He probably thought I was just sweet-talking him.
18:56It's all right.
18:58One day, I would tell him everything.
19:01I'd tell him that I had fallen in love with him a long, long time ago,
19:05only I hadn't realized it.
19:07Julian and I had crossed paths a few times at palace banquets.
19:10Back then, all my attention was on Arthur,
19:12so I never really took a good look at him.
19:15Looking at him now, his looks were on par with Arthur's.
19:18His combat skills matched.
19:20Tristan's and his eloquence and manners were second to none.
19:23How blind was I in the past to have overlooked such a perfect man.
19:28Knowing he missed the North Sea, I pulled him along to see the rare sea anemones gifted from his homeland.
19:34But the moment we entered the Royal Kelp Garden, we ran into two figures bringing nothing but bad luck.
19:44Arthur's face was dark as he shielded Chloe behind him.
19:48What are you two doing here?
19:52Julian glanced at him, then at Chloe.
19:54Ah, the young Duke and your wife are here too.
19:58Her Highness was worried I'd be homesick, so she brought me here to give me that rarest giant sea anemone.
20:04Don't spout nonsense!
20:06Chloe's just a maid at the estate, not my wife!
20:08I raised my eyes in surprise.
20:10How rare!
20:11This was the first time I'd seen him not defend Chloe in public.
20:15Chloe's face stiffened, and she pitifully tugged at Arthur's sleeve.
20:19But Arthur shook her hand off and looked right at me.
20:21Isabella, I want a word with you.
20:23Alone.
20:24I don't have the time.
20:25Julian suddenly squeezed my arm and spoke gently.
20:28Princess, I'll go try on my ceremonial robes first.
20:31Come find me in a bit.
20:34Alright.
20:35I'll come find you shortly.
20:37I watched Julian swim away, but Arthur suddenly swam over, blocking my view.
20:42Isabella, are you seriously letting him be your husband?
20:45Arthur Brooke, who gave you permission to address me like that?
20:50Isabella, how dare you speak to me this way!
20:54I turned and walked away, but Arthur suddenly grabbed my hand in panic.
20:58Your Highness!
21:01Your Highness, do you really want Julian as your husband?
21:05Of course.
21:06But you don't even like him.
21:08You two won't be happy together.
21:10I let out a cold laugh, turned around and stared sarcastically at Arthur.
21:14And who do you think I should be with?
21:16You?
21:17You publicly rejected me, and even announced you wanted a mistress.
21:22I... I just...
21:23Enough! Let's not bring up the past again.
21:26From now on, Julian is my husband.
21:30I expect you to show him proper respect when you see him.
21:33But Arthur didn't give up.
21:35Instead, he became even more annoyingly attentive.
21:38He started seeking me out constantly, dropping off custom-made bracelets,
21:43or high-end seafood desserts, which thoroughly annoyed me.
21:46I had no choice but to let Julian deal with him.
21:49But not long after, Tristan came rushing in in a total panic.
21:54Your Highness!
21:54Your Highness, this is bad!
21:56Arthur beat up Julian!
21:59I rushed over only to see Julian standing there with his arms crossed, completely unruffled, his clothes perfectly neat.
22:06Arthur, on the other hand, had his clothes torn to shreds, his hair a mess, and was howling in pain
22:12as others supported him.
22:14What on earth are you two doing?
22:16Julian suddenly stepped forward, and clung to my arm with a wronged expression.
22:20Your Highness, someone hit me. It hurts so much.
22:24Arthur shook off two guards and lunged forward to attack again, consumed by rage.
22:28You bastard!
22:30Julian lashed his tail hard against Arthur, sending him flying.
22:34Oh, my apologies, Duke Arthur. I didn't mean to do that.
22:37Looking at Julian's innocent face, I couldn't help but let my lips curl up.
22:42Now I knew exactly why Arthur looked so battered.
22:45Alright, this is no place for a brawl. Everyone, return to your own homes.
22:49I led Julian away, leaving Arthur rooted to the spot, cursing furiously.
22:54While the doctor was applying medicine to Julian's non-existent wounds, I sat outside waiting for him.
23:01Unexpectedly, Arthur had followed me.
23:04Who let you in?
23:05Arthur didn't say a word. Suddenly, he hugged my tail tightly, begging.
23:10Your Highness, let's start over.
23:12What?
23:15Arthur gazed up at me with deep affection.
23:17Your Highness, cancel the contract with Julian and let me be your husband. Please?
23:22I looked at Arthur in disbelief.
23:25Arthur, are you crazy or am I?
23:27Your Highness, in the past, everyone kept telling me I was destined to be your husband.
23:32Only Chloe told me I was free and had the right to choose my own wife.
23:36I mistakenly thought she understood me, that she got me.
23:39But it wasn't until the day you chose Julian that I realized I do love you.
23:43I just hadn't noticed it myself.
23:45I looked at him coldly, my heart not stirring in the slightest.
23:49Perhaps he was telling the truth, but I simply didn't care anymore.
23:53Seeing that I remained unmoved, Arthur grabbed my hand and pressed it against his chest.
23:57Your Highness, believe me.
23:59He guided my hand slowly down his body in seduction.
24:02Just give me one more chance and I will serve you perfectly.
24:07Impossible.
24:08Why?
24:09I leaned down and tilted his chin up with my finger.
24:12Arthur Brooke, the person standing before you, is the one and only princess of the Atlantis kingdom.
24:18What makes you think that after all your half-hearted betrayals, I would ever accept you back?
24:26I know I failed you, and I'm willing to make it up to you.
24:29As long as I can be your husband, I won't mind if you take other lovers.
24:33Isabella shoves Arthur hard, looking down on him loftily.
24:36Enough!
24:37Julian and I are truly in love.
24:39In this lifetime, I will only ever have him as my husband.
24:42Your Highness, you can't abandon me!
24:44Arthur rushed at me in a panic, as if trying to embrace me, but I dodged him.
24:48When I tried to leave, he grabbed the hem of my skirt.
24:51Your Highness, that Julian has absolutely nothing, but I'm a Duke.
24:56Our family has military power and influence.
25:00I am the best candidate to be your husband.
25:02What military power?
25:04What influence?
25:05It all hinged on a single word from my father.
25:08Arthur prided himself on his vast knowledge, yet he couldn't even grasp this simple truth.
25:14Guards.
25:14Two mermaid guards walked in.
25:16Escort the young Duke back to his estate.
25:19The guards dragged Arthur away.
25:21He kept pleading and begging me to stay, but I never cast him another glance.
