No, I think the writer is trying to show the mind bending a narcissist goes through. Even though the author showed him "helping" his "friend" they also showed him ignoring the fact that he was ruining his wife's credit. The same wife he just found out couldn't have kids because of stress. People who are sympathizing and saying he was originally good are misunderstanding the point of the chapters
I think the twin brother purposefully didn’t help her or try to convince her during the execution, and possibly planted the idea of her getting executed to help Caesar, so he could get rid of her and get his brother to pay attention to him more (brocon)
Wait is the author trying to make us sympathize with him???
