Synopsis
#secondchance #getingbacktogether #slowburn #diplomacy #kingdombuilding
Bright looked up, his tender gaze aimed at softening Emma's heart. "I've only just realized the depth of my love for you, and I can't bear to lose you."
"You're aware that I don't believe in love, aren't you? So, please don't use that as a justification," Emma responded sharply.
"Alright, then, I simply need you in my life, Emma."
Emma gritted her teeth. "So, where were you when I needed you, Your Highness?"

(Setting: 19th Century)
Seven years had passed since Emma last saw Bright Alejandro Anderson—her first love. Emma had almost succeeded in living her life normally. She was doing fine.
But that man resurfaced in Emma's life as Prince Anderson, who led the royal legal affairs team. He not only appeared in Emma's life but also forced her to look back. To revisit memories she desperately wanted to forget.
For Emma, Bright, aka Prince Anderson, was the most bitter lesson in her life. From him, Emma learned never to trust anyone.
Not even God.
~~~
Emma's tears flowed, voice cracked and pained,
"Even if I were to die," her despair remained,
"I'll hate you forever, it's only fair,
Don't come to my funeral, don't you dare,
Set foot at my graveside, expect no embrace,
Don't ever anticipate my heart's forgiving grace,
I'll spend my days, my bones, in hatred's grip,
A love once cherished, now a sinking ship.
~~~
"I've just killed someone with my own hands. Ah, this is how deep my love for you is, Emma. I would kill for you, and you've just witnessed it with your own eyes."
...
"I'm here... don't be scared... this time I'm not leaving you, unlike before when I left you."
...
"I was stupid. I am sorry. I regret it with every breath I take. I wish there was a way to turn back time to fix the past. But despite everything I can do, I can't. So, I sincerely apologize, even though I know I don't have the right to do so."

Such a good story of love . Setting characters and development of characters is really good. Wording of story is impressive .It's catchy and intriguing .Highly recommended.
I know I'm imperfect, but i wanna be perfect for you! This is a great one from a great soul. Maybe one day I will tell the similar story if the pieces of my heart still available to amend. If only I can realise that I can't lose her/him.

My My! I'm already so giddy to read this book, the synopsis alone is gripping! I can tell I'll be so in love with the characters. I'll be selfish to ask for many and quicker updates and looking forward to it. Thank youuuuu!
Good wording good story plot . Synopsis didn't attract me but story seemed a lot better . Recommended
The author possesses a unique aesthetic soul. I find myself intentionally reading their words aloud, and it resonates with a poetic beauty. It's truly delightful.
I read a few chapters of these book and oh my, I am so captivated and intrigued by the plot and everything thing in it, good job author.
It’s a book that is worth a shot, you will not regret it! ✨ I enjoy the interaction between the female and male lead in this story. 🪴 The dialogue flows naturally and doesn't feel contrived like in many other novels. The descriptions are vivid yet allow room for my imagination to fill in the details. 🦄
Hello, this is Tizz! Again, please don't read this if you don't like spoilers! "The Man of My Bitterest Mistake" is my 4th novel in webnovel. It is the story of two imperfect individuals, love each other but also end up hurting each other at the same time. The tale begins when both become each other's first love during their time at the academy. As teenagers, they are still naive, and like most first loves, it serves as a life lesson for both. Separated for seven years, they lead separate lives, each undergoing their own emotional journey. Emma dates several other men, and Bright does the same. Emma sees Bright as a reminder of her bitterest lesson in life and, since then, she dates without involving her emotions. Emma's heart has hardened, and she becomes quite unbearable. Get ready for it! Haha... Meanwhile, Bright, during his relationships with other women, realizes he consistently measures their worth against Emma. Eventually, he gives up and decides to find Emma again. Despite Bright appearing perfect due to his royal upbringing, he is far from flawless. Raised as an heir to the throne, he struggles to understand himself, born without the love of both parents and pressured to meet the expectations of many. The complexity and depth of their characters are the main driving forces behind the central plot in this simple love story.
