I think so too, if you pay attention from the beginning he is mean to her for no reason, and he accused her of infedility with the crown prince which was uncalled for unless he had emotions he could not express so seeing her with other males made him jealous and envious .
what-
now it all makes sense. I DID NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT THIS POSSIBILITIES
What about Nora? What secret did he find out?
Maybe he's speaking about the things she did behind people back to protect the kids like acting as a couple with that dude to dodge her mother protest to remarry things like that. Because again in the first chapter she herself told what she did for the in order to raise them and save their fortune, i guess nora knew about these things that made him love her even more. (Ugh i really want a romance between them )
Thank you for answering my questions!
No problem dear !!
Does the cardinal actually like the marchioness, is that why there is whip marks on his back to stop the ‘urges’??
If anyone could answer it would be much appreciated
