cedric who is the MC's former fiancee and charlottes current husband is actually a yandere for our MC

before the MC died in her first life, cedric betrayed her with charlotte because if the MC became a criminal, he would be able to lock her up and keep her all for himself without the nobles being suspicious. he didn't know that charlotte was going to kill her otherwise he would not have cooperated with her. after she died he was forced into a marriage with charlotte. charlotte is madly in love with cedric but the feelings are not mutual and they have not spent a night together at all since their marriage. rather, cedric often frequents brothels and sleeps with women who look or act like our MC or he sleeps with her preserved dead body

when meeting the MC after she has been reincarnated, cedric becomes obsessed with her again and basically becomes her dog



she distances herself from him though and sees him as but a pawn in her ploy for revenge. eventually, cedric comes to realise that the MC does not love him and that she cannot be tied down to him. this drives cedric to insanity and therefore he commits suicide saying he shall leave a scar on her soul forever. this was honestly darker than what i was expecting from this manga but hey, no complaints here.
