Upon realizing this, Elysia decided to turn back time to take revenge by choosing a husband that would follow her lead. She needed a commoner to play the role of her husband as her puppet... but the man she hired to act as her husband turned out to be someone above and beyond, going beyond her wildest dreams. Elysia then had no choice but to alter her original plan.
