Lol yall forget these are teenagers with feelings out of whack and growing brains or something? If you think he’ll have rational thoughts only because it’s his mother who rejected him and not his sister, you better think again.
I wonder if they’d been given the option to choose which parents they’d like to live with. All that resentment he’s feeling might not be so exacerbated by his sister’s presence if he could be with his dad instead of his mother.
Anyway, I’ve enjoyed what I read so far. Looking forward to the continuation. Curious to see how he’ll genuinely fall for her.
The emperor reminds me of one of those men who say the wrong thing while their hearts feel something entirely different. He’s not doing it on purpose, he simply hasn’t worked it out himself. Plus I’m guessing the memory of his dead lover is playing a part in that.
Anyway, I’m really into his character and I can’t pinpoint why exactly.
Here are my theories:
1. MC didn’t know that the price for removing “death” so he and the ML could be together forever was his reincarnation, so the “betrayal” wasn’t done on purpose.
2. To remove “death,” ML had to be in the underworld for 300 years or so. In order not to suffer during that time (let’s assume he’d normally get tortured in the underworld), MC took his pain in the form of the bad luck that kept following him since he reincarnated.
Loving the grand-ma already. I wonder when the FL will fall for him though. According to spoilers…
***SPOILER***
She’ll eventually admit she has feelings for him but still refuses to act on them so she goes through with being with Lucrezia’s brother.
He’s super kind to her, but in the end, he’s only that way because he believed she was a Bonuaparte. The moment his sister tells him she isn’t, he drops her and treats her like she’s not even worth being polite to. FL then realizes that she ignores the signs of his true personality throughout their relationship, because he’s always treated commoners and people of lower status like they don’t even exist or like they shouldn’t even try to be or speak around him.
It’s empress consort, not dowager.
was about to say lol she looks hella young for an empress dowager
The yalso mistook «emperor» for «crown prince» in the previous chapter
Yeah, that was confusing to read
