I hope he don't bcs he doesn't deserve that. Lara better with better person than this shity prince. Character development? Nope, i wish he doesn't have character development bcs i want him to shame with his stupidity. He can fix himself why bother need Lara to fix him? Only ti burden sweet Lara, how much Lara need ti handle his shitty arrogant self. Lara deserve kind, caring and gentle partner and it definitely nit him. ヽ(`Д´)ノ
I read the novel, babe, he'll never have character development. Besides Lara and Astana are technically 2nd cousins. The empress and Lara's mother are cousins after all. (Novel Spoilers Ahead ) It was pointed out in the novel. So don't ship them, please. Even Tia was disgusted. And he has some kind of romantic¿ feelings for Tia but it was never addressed bc of his sh!tty personality and idk his emo teenage phase. If you look closely there are hints of his feelings. Expect to have more of it in the next chapters. Honestly, it could've been his chance to have a character development. Boy was he just stupid. What do u expect from someone who was raised like he could have it all? Especially one who was raised by that crazy empress.
I would actually love it if the first prince goes after her for ill intent and then ends up falling really in love with her and have a character development (▰˘◡˘▰)
