In my opinion the fact that she did so many things to please him and that he didn't look at her even once, he didn't look at his child, makes me really wary of him. And regarding the fl, I think she's beyond redemption at this point of the story she's way more manipulative than in her past but it's done in order to survive. They both did bad deeds, let's hope they can start anew and bring her family down

SPOILER
I read a different applied that said he is a good ML and truly loved her but he had no control of the courts so he pretended to not like her so they wouldn't hurt her. He immediately recognized when the original slighter was switched with her and so he killed her, took full control of the courts and raised their child talking about how great his mom was (▰˘◡˘▰)

she said that she has to kill the girl before her to take her place. and after that, she tricks him and didn't tell him she works for the duke and help the duke to control the throne. she felt guilty about it too, so she did trick him too. though I doubt it was his only reason to act this way. but we didn't actually see what he did to her or what he was thinking, we only know about her pov.
so I really don't blame the ML at the time at all. she also was at fault

to be fair, if I was trick by the person that claims to love me and they work for a duke against me to control the throne I would have acted the same way. she still tricks him and helps the duke get power only to get killed later, she wasn't an angel in this. so there is no need to hate him if you forgive her.
am I the only one that does not hate the ML here? really? I really don't get the hate, since she did horrible things to him too in the past and trick him ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ but she does not get any hate for it now does she.
