There is No Next Chance, Your Majesty

Summary

“Don’t make me repeat myself. Answer me. I asked if he’s my child.”
***
After a life in the Lecanto Empire and a life in 21st-century South Korea,
the Imperial Empress Estelle returned once more to her first life.
“Why did I only realize now that you could never love me?”
In this life, she decided to leave Kaian—the emperor and the only man she had ever loved.
Because, across all her lives, the thing she regretted most was loving him.
This time, she had only one goal:
to protect the son she had lost in her previous life.
So she faked her death and fled while carrying his child.
Everything was perfect.
The child she met again was precious and dear,
and with the knowledge from her past life, she amassed great wealth.
However, an unexpected variable appeared.
“It seems you’re mistaken, but I have no intention of leaving either you or Aer here.”
“I don’t understand what you mean.”
“It doesn’t matter. The fact that you belong to me won’t change.”
Her ex-husband, whom she encountered by chance after four years, had begun to obsess over her—
even though she pretended to have lost her memory in an accident.
So she realized instinctively:
he would never willingly let go of this ill-fated bond.
But—
she had no intention of giving another chance
to the man who had already abandoned her.
