WE’RE BACK BABY! I always knew Deon was gonna get what was comin’ to him but if he gets taken out by LANT of all people I will be severely disappointed. I was hoping for a showdown between him and Cass. Hoping he’ll be able to crawl away from this and fight another day.
Also, after re-reading this I have some things to point out. What’s up with the OG red haired ML’s weird attitude towards Roxanna? He acts like she did him dirty somehow and as far as I know they’ve had almost no interaction over the years except at the big house assembly thing and even then i think they’ve talked briefly like twice, so idk what his deal is. (I know they mention he has a hatred for women in general but he seems have a particular dislike for her specifically)
Also there’s a part where Lant talks about a deal he made with that one House Head that has the puppeteer power, which if I recall correctly, is that childish little sh*t who fell head over heals for Xana at first sight at the assembly party. Roxanna was dismissive of the deal since this was mid-coupe but what if that deal included selling off Roxanna in a marriage deal in exchange for whatever Lant wanted in return? Just something to consider I guess.
Is she…planning on killing herself once everything’s finished!?! I knew she’s been feeling more lost the closer she gets to completing her revenge but…idk I guess I shouldn’t be surprised if that’s her plan. Her whole goal in life was to get revenge on everyone who hurt her in the past and once it’s done her sole motivation for living will be gone. And it sounds like if things don’t go EXACTLY as she wants them to and someone else gets to any of the royal family before she can, she’s for sure just gonna end it all. I’m am concerned. I know her hubby is gonna make sure that doesn’t happen but still…
Man this last chapter was satisfying. She can’t trust NOBODY man, not even the head mage who was talking big about “protecting her to the bitter end” not too long ago. He was just sitting there like a lump on a log while the FL had to handle everything by herself. I hope her family gets f*cked over somehow in the long run and I hope the crown prince gets a big fat reality check from the FL soon. Even if he was under some mind-control spell or some other bullsh*t in the past she was still abused, imprisoned and killed because of him. The prince is garbage either way, but if he’s still doing all of this with his memories of the past in tact then he’s an entire flaming trash heap.
I’m glad they’re finally communicating properly and as much as I enjoy seeing their relationship progress….where is it going? Yes, he was obsessed with finding her and keeping her by his side and he clearly has genuine feelings for her, but for some reason I don’t see him marrying her or doing something to raise her status, which is the only way they could be together long-term in a proper relationship. ML and the rest of the household still very much subscribe to maintaining a class divide, and so far I haven’t seen anything from him that would suggest that he plans to do anything other than keep her by his side as a maid.
I finished the novel and I dare say, the novel goes more in depth about this topic and you'll see this discussed later on in this story. The gap felt in social classes is real in this story, and can't be solved, as easy as it sounds, by just giving Paula a title. In fact, Paula is conformed to being a hardworking commoner maid. This is her way of living, earned through her own efforts, and Vincent respects that.
I feel like it makes it more powerful if he gives her the choice, and she chooses to be as she always has. Yet despite being a mere "maid", will be untouchable by other peoples judgements. In my opinion the freedom of choice is what matters, and dismantling their power gap a good amount during their relationship. I didnt really put my thoughts down as good as i thought i would so i hope my point comes across alright
Yes, you have a point, butI highly recommend reading the novel. It is beautifully written and handles this topic in a satisfying way. I can't give details since I don't want to spoil, but honestly, the way they resolved the matter was a bit unique in a way.
But Paula's opinions and choice on whether to stay the way she is or becoming a lady of higher status has always been respected by others. That's just how much she is respected and loved in her group. I can't say for a fact that in this story commoners are treated equally, since they aren't. Everyone is biased towards Paula because of her influence on people, but realistically, there are obstacles Paula and Vincent must face even if there is bias or a status gap between them... I REALLY WANT TO TALK MORE BUT I CAN'T SPOIL HDJSNAJAAA
I’m loving the wholesome brother bonding content, but I’m also getting progressively more nervous the longer Ilay doesn’t show up. On the one hand I think Ilay should suffer a bit for all the shit he’s put Tae through, and cutting off his access to Tae is a great way of doing that in the story, but we all know that’s also just making him more unhinged to trying to find him. We’re getting snippets of the carnage Ilay is leaving behind, but I fear it’s about to get biblical.










Okaaaayyy, so blondie is WAAAAAAYYY crazier than I initially gave him credit for and that’s saying something cuz we been knew that man is a text book yandare. But I thought that their shared past was at least going to be a bit more substantial than it was.
I was assuming blondie was Sori’s co-worker back in the day and it might have been blondie’s first gig or something and Sori just didn’t remember him because he was so focused on the ass-hat who ended up being the source of his kink/trauma. Turns out Blondie’s just a hot sasaeng who happens to be Sori’s type.
Buckle up butter-cups! This one’s gonna be a bumpy ride!
Could you tell me in which chapter it's implied or mentioned that blondie is sori's sasaeng, I barely startes reading first chapter
Chapter 20, which is what I titled my comment. It shows where blondie met Sori at a premiere of a film he acted in and became an insta-fan. You see his obsession forming in real time during their brief interaction.
Myy baddd sorry I didn't pay attention to your comment's title. Now I've read it, he's surely a creepy kid lmao. Can't wait to see more of his freakiness towards sori
