The MC is chasing after the ML and still wooing him. We are currently in the flashback what went wrong and why the ML is angry with MC. Apparently in the present the ML was like to the MC “Why did you left and betrayed me? If you came sooner I would have forgiven you.” It was kind of ambiguous at first is because the MC seems like the type to stick to the person they love no matter what. But we got to the flashback and that’s when things became clear. Apparently the two had young love. Then the MC outed the ML to his abusive father (we still yet to reached that part. But it was already mentioned in the previous chapters that the MC outed the ML.) the ML runaway and dropped out of school, MC felt betrayed tracked where the ML is and tried to kill him (like if I can’t have you mindset then you better off dead.) but the MC called his name while sleeping so the MC didn’t kill him. The MC disappeared, continued to study art in the overseas and became successful. The ML got married to please his abusive father but the marriage fell through. After the divorce the MC resurfaced. It turns out he has been watching all along. He orchestrated a 10 year plan, got famous, wealthy and influential all just so he could have power to protect the ML. (MC was poor when they were young). The father hurt the ML again and the MC found out about it. Barged to ML’s father’s house and beat the heck out of him and burst his ear drums.
This has such a good story, it is the only BL story I read so far where the MC didn’t villainize the ML’s ex wife. The MC was like if there’s one person the ML has to apologize for it is his ex wife because he hurt her emotionally. The MC is very reasonable person. He didn’t hold grudges when the ML married a woman to please his abusive father even though they both promised to only love one another. The MC honored that promise but the L didn’t. Nonetheless the MC still pursues the ML. If you are into a strong MC then this is definitely for you.

So like people is there any romance in it or just all toxic, All angst and no redemption or whatsoever?? Should I read it??
