I KNOW!! I KNOW THAT YOU MIGHT HATE ME FOR THIS OPINION!! BUT!!...
I am actually thinking he is not that of a bastard. I also thought he is the worst. But maybe in reality he was trying to make adele happy at times, but bc of lack of common sense he never thought those things would scare her so much. In addition, he did not even knew abt how the father bastard treated her. I know, if i were Adele i would have still were irritated by him amd so on...but even with the incident with throwing her out of the window, he never wanted to hurt her. Like....he carried her around and wanted to scare her but that what it is. True, him, demanding apologies were out of place, and maybe there is a reason behind it...still, from how he was shocked we could tell he never intended to hurt her. But his pranks were out of place or misunderstood. For me, I still did not forgave him totally, but partialy and in this chapter when he is trying to speak I pity him. And ofc, I am understanding Adelle. She did not know the other side, so ofc she would hate him. And many of you might hate him still ans so on. But personally i pity him
It is clear as night and day that someone from royal family is involved. Even without few last pages, i knew from words, trafficking in capital and corruption of guards that it is not simply a person as from the duke position, bc then, royal fa m.j ily would have made moves, but it is undoubtedly royal family itself. Hope, heroes have brains to understand that
DUKE IS NOT AT FAULT! READ AGAIN! HE WAS THREATENED AND CORNERED! from the wife's side, adding to her inability to stand herself so it would be easier for him to handle household affairs, from father's side, threatening with lives of many ppl, and from the emperor's side. WTF ARE U EXPECTING?! He couldn't even handle his ex bc of all sht! IF YALL BLAMING ML THEN YOU SHOULD BLAME FL TOO!!! SHE WAS NOT THE ONE UPSTANDING HER TITLE!! SO AT LEAST HELP DUKE OR HER SON!! SHE WAS THE VICTIM OF THE PAST!! SO HOW COULD YOU DISREGARD MLS PAST TOO?!
hmph... ( ̄ε(# ̄)Σ
Also i do not hate nor MLs mother, nor father, nor foster mother. They aaaall had reasons and did not actually abuse as for this chapter. So it was just a hard situation
Like yall expect him to overcome trauma and stable his position, when there is attack from every way, with not even single opportunity to realise all that plans, but still saying it is OKAY for fl bc of her traumas, with attacks only from dukes side to still be depressed?!! Duke was unable to tell her bc of spies. But thoee spies are not mesnt to kill Gl if she acted more confidently.....
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS, i've been trying so hard to get this message out but everyone's like nope
Yaaaaaassssssss(๑•ㅂ•)و✧
