The Official Main Wife is the Villain, while the Shit Father had his good melodramatic reasons.
Same, it's like telling people that being a mistress is better than being a legal wife, which is wrong. But in nobles especially royalty the "wife" is not just a spouse but an important position in a household with own responsibilities and they will prefered woman that is capable of running the household with the head so sometimes love is not important in this kind of union, and the man of the household ended up having a mistress as they are the woman they love. Which I understand in this kind of POV...
But the thing is the "man" doesn't handle this kind of situation well. I believe the man needs to know how to handle all of his women he brought in his household as they are his responsibility even if he loves them or not. Most that I see, they just let them fight and do nothing when they have problems which is so shitty. If you want to have a harem, make sure you can manage them well. They're not a mere fleshlight, they are people with feelings. They usually invalidated the wife feelings just because they don't love them or because of political reasons but is it hard to be at least civil with each other? Some are worse douche bag even personally abused the wife and when the wife fights back, they call them a villain.
Of course there are wives that have a shitty personality and greediness in them, that is a true villain.
Sorry for the long reply.

Some of the ideas and character designs reminds me of "Elqueenes".
I have to say, I do not like how adorkable this MC is.
That protagonist is way too forgiving towards anyone who has seriously harmed or tried to kill them, and they don't do really anything on their own or can't say really NO to many characters!
All I see is a weak wimpy crybaby main character constantly acting cute, being surrounded by many immature assholes & overprotected by powerful characters (which includes handsome + obsessive guys).
Why does she/he gets easily kissed/assaulted by pretty males!?
I do not understand the behavior / logic of Sir Joel.
Before chapter 26 he had a decent personality and then his character went off the rails.
He didn't even bother to protect "Haein" when they were framed for murder, stabbed with a sword by an angry grieving noble, who loved the dead abusive aristocratic bitch, and about to be executed.....
There are no real logical consequences in this story.
And about the Elemental Spirit King Father.....
I don't care about his sad circumstances and that he now dotes on the protagonist.
It doesn't change the fact that he first throw away his child into another world, then kidnapped them against their will, threatened + mistreated them with magical violence and misgendered them.
There is always this Evil Jealous Bitch Antagonist in Romance Fantasy.
