Well, I guess it's true that the 2nd Prince is in apparent bigger danger but ofc he ended up choosing his favorite kid as always, huh? He simply doesn't care about the ML, he doesn't know wtf happened to the 3r Prince yet he thought "oh, it's nothing" but he still likes to pretend he does care and that he's the perfect father. Disgusting. :l
Oh, darn it, poor Crown Princess, she was evil but still (wonder if she'll give up or this is really her ending). :c
