Spoiler warning
From the novel so far I do think the silver guy likes her but it’s very subtly. He is always looking out for her and doesn’t oppose the marriage between Talia even tho he has the power to refuse through veto. Stars aligned for him so he’s probably going with the flow but I wish he wasn’t so nonchalant. Unfortunately, from the latest update she’s dead so hopefully she might be able to achieve what u said. Novel has hinted his bloodline being able to read mind or foresee future but I don’t think it’s been confirmed yet that he can.
The ml still can't show emotions properly. But he does love her. Actually he former empress priorized the safety of her children and bind the ml with a magical oath. That's why he always priotizes the twins. And in recent chapter of the novel Thalia died and now alya is trying to marry the ml. It really hurts
The novel isn't finished. But our FL is already dead. She didn't even have any revenge on twins and she also got crippled when everyone was under a attack, that's why ml was asked to marry her. And during the attack ml saved alya but thalia was left under the debris. Now that she's dead alya is trying to marry the ml.

So please tell me that silver guy did end up falling for her but by that time she gets to learn what real love should be and loves herself properly and goes to live alone traveling in different countries living freely without all the drama and toxicity surrounding her. I don’t want her with anyone else but herself. I can understand everyone’s perspective so just let all of em be free gosh I hate that I love this kinda annoying stories so much ヽ(`Д´)ノ
