you said the duke is NOT the lead, but also that the story was more about the Lady who was dragged down by vicious rumors. is there still a male lead? & is it her childhood friend/crush?
Yes, there is a ML and it's her childhood friend .
If this was a korean webtoon that shows a trailer for what's to come I wanted to tell ppl it's not about a weak girl who falls in love with an asshole.
Thankssssssssssss i was worried about the ML, the duque is stupid and all his people are garbage
٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶ yay
Omg thanks! You literally save me from dropping this. Only chapter 2 and I'm mad angry at the stupid Duke and I was hoping she'll not fall for him. Thank god the ml is the child hood friendლ(´ڡ`ლ)
thank god I was going to drop it cause I read in top comment it's duke redemption kinda story
YESSSSSSSSSS ITS CLAUDE LETS GET IT
It pretty much sucks that the score to this manga is a 8.9 and that the top popular comments are regarding the Duke as Male Lead(ML) lol or that she's weak cuz she's getting bullied. Stories like Remarried Empress have top scores when she hasn't even divorced her husband yet and won't in 100+ chapters in. In this story she will divorce her husband much sooner maybe around chapter 15-20.
This is a story about a young lady that was pulled down by noble society and how vicious rumors can be. I saw one of the popular comments asking where was her childhood friend when she was getting attacked by these rumors? That would get answered soon with a POV chapter. The Duke is not the male lead he is an obstacle in the story for her he will get what's coming to him. The story is showing how she can overcome these problems, she is not a weak protagonist.
Give this manga a chance! If you can read Remarried Empress and suffer through Trashta and the Emperor then you can withstand this manga.
