This had a lot of potential. It started out like okay as angst. And I was happy she followed through and left. But when the duke FOLLOWED HER, and wouldn’t leave her alone, continuously stuck his nose in thing to intentionally manipulate and make things harder for her, I was just fed tf up. Not only does she sternly tell
Him to go away, HE HASNT APOLOGIZED ORRR GROVELED in any shape or form. He’s just pushed his way into her life again after treating her like absolute shit. I managed to get through 41 chapters before deciding to give this crap a rest. I mean she’s got courage, but she’s dumb. I mean she managed to pay her fathers debt, flip flowers for gold and use that money to expand: but won’t tell the duke to leave her alone?? And then plot armor comes and has a random bandit attack her and lo and behold, guess who breaks down her door for the SECOND TIME, to get in her house because he “panicked”? I mean the whole premise is mid but he genuinely treated her like crap, yes there was miscommunication but the bottom line is when she needed him, he could never show up for her. Dropped.
