@Malte I don't get her logic either lol. It seems like writers will come up with any reason to explain/justify the MC's actions, even if they don't make sense. I think the writer here wanted Kayena to appear weak in front of the ML to appeal to him at this moment, hence this logic was made out...
I'm impressed the emperor caught on to Kayena's act; that she was spinning her misfortunes into opportunities. Usually in these the stories, secondary characters are oblivious to the MC's facade, especially those the MC are specifically trying to fool.
@Bluehammer12 Really late reply but a lot of maids that served royalty are actually women of lower nobility. Well there are maids of different rank and one's social status determined that. Those who came from a low-ranking noble family would normally serve their masters personally, such as...
@frenchfry I love her mother also! She's materialistic, not very involved in Aria's life and probably not the "best mother" out there, but she's willing to go through thick and thin with Aria. I like her more than other mother characters that are loving and supportive in a cliche way. You'd...
@BimBim85 This would be believable if they were engaged and living together for a few months or a year. Even if he tried his damn hardest to avoid her and not pay attention to her, I find it hard to believe that he never noticed how others treated her. They were together for SEVEN YEARS (not...
@Kynnath Exactly this. The duke's character makes no sense. I had to make sure I got the timeline right. It would be a little more believable if they lived in separate households (minimal contact) and/or he was away at war for the majority of their engagement. I feel like the author didn't think...
@Pokari I feel the same way. I was willing to suspend my disbelief if the flashback showed that he was a person kind enough to stand up for her, but that little dialogue she overheard had no indication of it whatsoever. All he said was that he hoped to, at the most, have a good relationship with...
@nobile No problem, I had to reread the previous chapter again because I kind of forgot who he was as well. I think the problem is the manhwa structure; I think if we were to be binge-reading it, it would be a lot easier to understand.
@kittten @Rubbiccino Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought OG!Beatrice was adopted after sometime after she left to study abroad. I'm pretty sure during a discussion she had with OG!Raeliana before leaving, she was still with her orphanage. So technically reincarnated!Raeliana doesn't have...
@paprika93 It is annoying when authors do that to create drama, but in this manhwa, I can see why Raeliana still feels like Noah and Beatrice are fated to be together. In other manga/manhwa, once the MC escapes her death flag, she's pretty much a free being in the world. In this however...
@AuraQuartz I don't really know aye? Lol. I don't really understand their motivations; maybe it'll be revealed later on. But for now, the family just seems to be evil for the sake of being evil.
@Akera93 Same. I like how they're both calculating and wary around each other. I'm excited to see how their dynamic changes following this event.
@NgọcTrai I wouldn't be surprised if Charlize came clean about it honestly. It's already well known that the herb is rare and royal family has easy...
Ok, interesting. Instead of taking over the cannon fodder's body, Su Luxia has to work alongside her. I like how the author mixes things up, e.g. the taoist arc.
That was bittersweet! I'm so glad he didn't become her love interest. It was really touching seeing how strong their mother-son bond was. Su Luxia actually opened up to him about transmigration and he figured out it was her early on. I wasn't expecting the story to revisit his character at all...
