Abused fl turns into abuser as a defense mechanism. She's secretly in love with the finacee of her half-sister, who is part of the cycle of abuse she is trying to escape from (the half-sister). Whether fl and ml have feelings for each other or not is currently unknown cause she acts like a villainess and he's emotionally distant. Other cast members include emotionally neglectful parents, psychotic half-brother, and various other palace staff, some of whom are actually helpful.
I've read all the available free chapters. Which is up to chapter 69, I don't know if all the people saying she's dead have read much farther or if there's just a misunderstanding.
From the point I'm at she's not dead, but she does get injured badly.
There IS hope, but so far, we're really just at a "wait and see" stage. Without too many spoilers, she's about to change her environment and hopefully things start to look up from there.

what the fuck is this manhwa even about?!
