Bianca de Blanchefort. The wife of Zachary de Arno, thrown out of Arno family after his death due to her self-indulgent, frivolous, and immoral behavior. She had nowhere to go, the Blanchefort family having already fallen to ruin, and was more or less kicked to a convent out in the border. A woman who ultimately met her end on a cold stone floor. A villainess with no honor: that was Bianca's life before she went back in time."Is this truly reality? Did I really travel back to the past?"This was neither a dream nor a hallucination. This feeling of hunger, fatigue, the vivid sense of everything around her This was all real. If this was indeed reality If God truly gave her one more precious chance!I'm going to carry out a business. A marriage is a business in the end. Zachary's child will be the perfect source of financial support. I'm sure my dowry will remain safe too. I won't have to lose the Blanchefort or Arno territories to that damned viscount either.'Then whether it be through seduction or persuasion, she needed to give birth to her husband, Zachary's child."How much was my dowry exactly?""400 calves, 900 pigs, 100 units of silverware, 300 rolls of silk, 2 crates of jewels, and a portion of a territory Equivalent to a two-year budget for the Arno county.""Don't you think you should compensate for that?"

Disregard the other review because the point of the story is not about how she's a evil wife but is how she needs to change her act or she'll die lonely.

It is because of the change in her attitude with the employees, with the people of the region and especially with her husband, she is related to the possibility of loving him and him loving her

Spoiler!
She married him when she was 8 and he was 16. He is a warrior who never stayed home. Even though they live in the same house, they don't know each other.

Do you want to do a review? Do it, but don't mention me (even indirectly). Especially since you clearly don't understand my review and the absurd amount of inconsistencies that this story presents.

Sorry for any mistakes, I write with the help of translators. Sometimes something goes unnoticed.

@Self.Love  I think you misunderstood the story and why I told you to disregard your review and came to my review on five different accounts is not going to change my opinion.

Spoiler!
She was literally a child who was practically kicked out of the house by her father and the only person she knew was the nanny who was a wall between her and her husband, and when the nanny dies he makes no effort to get close to her, and give jewelry and clothes will not fill the heart, she was not a "bad wife" but a lonely TEENAGE girl away from home with no friends. She felt so alone that the first man who showed her a little affection gave herself to him.

@MalSeok_Jin How the f*ck is her husband going to give her affection if she kept him away and mistreated him? She was HATED by everyone for how she acted. A small example: Read chapter 1 and 5 carefully, and if you have the minimum intelligence (which I doubt) to know how to interpret what is being shown, you will realize that she was not a saint. 
- When all the "cheating sh*t" starts, the story has already completely changed the narration (out of nowhere), and now FL is a "saint" and everything is ML's fault (as I described in my review, but you didn't even read everything apparently). 
- Why don't you talk about the other points I mentioned instead of just focusing on the point that she was not an "evil wife"? 
- There are many, many, many characters who go through much, much worse things (yes, I am talking about children/adolescent characters) and don't act the sh*tty way she did. 
- I made 5 different accounts? LMAO Free accusations now? Because I only have two accounts.....WTF?

@Self.Love  Well since you insist that I hit all the points in your review I took the liberty of doing so.  I wanted to avoid giving spoilers to the story as much as possible but here we go

Honestly I don't know why you felt so offended by my opinion of the story and your review that you felt attacked that your responses made it seem like I was stalking you. You question my understanding and intelligence just because I don't agree with your view and for someone who makes it clear they don't like the manga the fact that you had the need to be gratuitously rude to me in my review when yours is over 4 months old difference and I didn't even tag you are ridiculous and immature. At no point did I offend you, maybe if I had said I disagreed instead of disregarding your review, your lack of politeness wouldn't have shown, but you can't expect too much from people on the internet. If you don't like the story why are you here reading and attacking who likes it?

@MalSeok_Jin I didn't read what you wrote in this reply and I won't. I've already wasted too much time on this, both reading and talking about it, and I'm not going to waste any more of my time on something so bad. 
Have a good life. Adieu.

Self.Love 2 years ago Sucks big time
This is one of the most inconsistent stories I have ever read. And to make matters worse? Virtually no one talks about it.  

FL is literally described as a "evil wife". She SHOULD be the villain of the "couple". Interesting, isn't it? Almost always ML is the "bad" one in the relationship and he has to change. It's something different, right?........Not really. 

Spoiler!
The story will forget/erase everything bad she does, and for no reason/out of nowhere the blame will fall on ML. This chapter makes it clear that everyone didn't like her, and that she had harassed the Count. As I said before she is literally described as a "evil wife" in this chapter. In the future it will be clear that SHE also kept ML away, and yet he still did the only thing he could for her: Give her everything that money could buy...But as I said, out of the blue the story will forget that and will throw the blame on ML, saying that he was cold, that he didn't do his duty as a husband, etc. No, it is not a second point of view, he literally becomes the only guilty, out of nothing. And for what? So that she (FL) has reasons to have cheated on him in her past life. You know what's curious? The ONLY TRUE difference between her current life and her past life is her personality. ML only changes the way he acts with her because before she kept him away, he doesn't change his personality or anything like that. You don't need to be a genius to realize the amount of inconstancies, right?

But, let's get to a few more things in the story:
(+SPOILERS!!!)

Spoiler!
- The same woman (in this case FL) who was a "evil wife", who is in her second life, who in chapter 5 is going to beat up a waitress a lot, this same woman in the future is going to be almost abus*d and won't even be able to scream. And who saves her is a woman theoretically "weaker" than she is.
- Up to the moment of my comment, the story never showed the details of why everyone disliked her in the past life, never showed why she was called a "evil wife", even this term doesn't appear again in the future (because the story decided to forget all that).
- The guy that she cheated on ML with in the past life will appear again in this life, him having an affair with married women is treated as something almost comical. 
- The major antagonist of the story is a Prince, which makes it very difficult for ML/FL to do anything against him. And yes, he "wants" FL.

 The story begins with her praying saying that if she could she would change how she acted and a miracle happens doesn't mean she's a saint, just that she has a second chance.
 
  She was not "literally" described as an evil wife, she was rumored across the country and reigned as she was.  And her supposed acts of evil was having a meltdown and breaking things up after the babysitter died the rumor got strong because before she was just a spoiled brat.  And she is never showing the acts of evil and why she has not.  "She abused ML" how?  if he didn't even talk to her he would talk
  She spent most of her life in her room alone and every now and then having a meltdown.  He is a war hero who saves the region where he counts, everyone is grateful for not having to suffer the consequences of invasions (which happens all the time since he lives on the battlefield), and that's why no one likes her
 
  "How dare this outsider not be an exemplary wife for our savior"
 
  And it's not just that he's to blame for this failed marriage, but he also has responsibility for it.  He is older than her and yes he had to grow up fast but he knew that she felt alone and that she missed home, he knew that she was afraid of him, that after the nanny the only person FL trusted dies she becomes more unstable .  What's the use of giving all the luxury in the world if she has no one.

- She is a woman of the nobility that the only source of power and security they had came from her husband (if they were lucky that he at least liked her) and a descendant (who had to be a man). She hit a maid with a stick in her hand who couldn't react if she didn't die, the FL all odds in her favor. Different from when she is attacked by a man at a banquet who already had a rumor that she cheats on ML is that she had to juggle politics involving the king to clear her name. If she screams it was her reputation on the line.
 She is not saved by a woman weaker than her, her personal maid who is stronger, historically stronger than she is if we take into account that the story takes place in the Middle Ages.
  There was no plumbing so in all the baths who carries the buckets of water? The maid, who cleaned the castle on her knees? The maid, who carries the wood for the fireplaces? The maid.
 
 - The lover is treated as comic and I will not deny it. The character's function reinforces how FL was naive and futile in her past life, which was just a second-rate singer speaking some pretty words that she fell in love with. A singer who was put in her life by ML's brother to steal his brother's land because if by a miracle she was pregnant, since it is said that ML and FL only had a relationship when he went to battle in the dark, paternity could be questioned.
 
 - As for the second prince, FL was going to fall on his radar one way or another. ML is one of the greatest and strongest military supporters of the first prince so much so that in FL's first life he only usurps the throne after ML dies. He's obsessed with FL because he's a man who's always had every woman in bed whether she's married or not. His feeling for her is a feeling of possession, he treats her like an object to be conquered

@MalSeok_Jin As I said in my comment above, I will no longer discuss or read anything involving this story (I didn't read these two replies either), sorry for making you waste your time.
