The Unwanted Northern Heiress Shines Again

“In my past life, I exhausted my massive dowry and used my own body heat to keep my dying mother-in-law alive, guarding the estate for three years while my husband fought on the battlefield. But his first act upon returning victorious was to kick open my door, his arm wrapped around his new, noble Dragon Knight bride. "A cursed, magic-less thing like you is only fit to be her lowly personal maid. From now on, you will wash our bedsheets every morning!" They drained my wealth while trampling on my dignity. Worse, they deliberately delayed reinforcements, getting my father and brothers killed and my entire family brutally butchered! In the end, his new bride locked me in a freezing dungeon and burned me alive with her dragonfire! Opening my eyes, I was back on the night he forced me to step down and humiliated me. Looking at the arrogant pair, I didn't drop to my knees and beg like my past life. Instead, I calmly took off the ancestral Dragon-bone ring and gave a perfect, subservient curtsy. "As you command, My Lord." The moment I turned my back, I froze every single copper coin of the estate's accounts, cut off his mother's life-saving medicine, and packed up my massive wealth along with my eighty loyal servants. I rode straight to the Dragon King's palace in the dead of night. "Your Majesty, I demand a Rejection Ritual." Three days later, when the almighty Dragon Lord realized his glorious estate couldn't even afford a moldy scrap of bread, and that he was about to be beheaded by the King's decree... he finally lost his mind.”
