Yeah like why is he regretting anything bro all she did is stop caring and he likes her oooooo he has bigger fish to fry
I thought he liked her the whole time, but due to his like duties to his family he acted cold to her?
Yeah I think thats what they were hinting at too. Because he talked often about how he saw the love she had for him, but had his own duties that took president over everything else that could be important. But it is certainly frustrating that he only started recognizing his faults after she decided he no longer needed to try and flatter him
I don’t think so, I think that he knew that she loved him but he didn’t really care. Like I don’t think he hated her, but sort of just considered her another burden/duty he had to take care of.
Yeah I think it’s this, otherwise how do you explain how quickly he held his sword up to her neck. If he had loved her even a little he wouldn’t have drawn it at all….
I think he felt some pity for her situation, but never considered helping her since his family hates the imperial family, and it wasn’t worth the risk. That’s part of the reason he feels so guilty now. Which led to watching/learning more about her and developing feelings, but in my opinion it’s too late and selfish of him.
I hope we see more of FL’s cold attitude! I hate it when they switch over/forgive everyone so quickly, I need to see suffering, remorse, and groveling
It was clearly stated by the first chapters that he’s surpressing himself because she’s from the family of an enemy and is another cliche workaholic and perfectionist cold young duke. He was also confused of his own feelings to the point where he asked his father; which the father replied it’s only guilt that he feel.
Don't understand how the male lead fell in love just like that, after all this time, so easily, just because of the short snippet of her changed personality at the start. Like after that one encounter when they talked? Just that? And then dude suddenly likes her
