Ikr I always preferred the red hair chick
anyways you gotta remember anna was JUST a maid she couldn’t just do whatever she wanted unless she was willing to face whatever a noble (aka red hair lady) would do to her as a “punishment” anna also had an early exposure to sex/lust and had a hard time viewing it in a good way i feel the i my reason she did try with lily was because it was pretty much her last resort as it was the only thing lily wanted :/
I know she couldn’t actually physically do anything about the situation. I mean at the very LEAST with words alone, she could’ve reassure her that Lily’s love was mutual. She could literally sneak in a whisper “I like you.” Anna was clearly aware of her feelings for lily.
I don’t blame Anna for everything, it’s obvious the red haired chick had the power. But I’m mainly annoyed at the readers who only like Anna and bash lily right away just cause lily rejected her at the very end. Lily was a victim as well. I’m criticizing the readers who talk shit about lily while praising Anna only. Anna also had influenced lily in some way as well. If Anna planned to not do anything due to her position, she should have just rejected lily straight up so lily could move on.
If it’s like you said and Anna only tried to sleep with lily and confess as a LAST RESORT, then it just shows Anna likely wouldn’t be ready for a relationship with lily even if she went with her. That’s probably what lily is thinking, that if she went with Anna, she’d still be stuck in a vague relationship that would never go anywhere.
Totally Agree!!
Ngl these biased Anna stans are so hypocritical. They pick and choose who gets to be a victim. From the beginning everyone (both readers) and Anna KNEW exactly how sheltered and naive lily was. The red chick was obviously manipulative. Whether ppl recognized lily being a victim or not, if they did and just switched up just cause she didn’t pick Anna- then they’re dumb asf. Ppl defend those characters who are obviously manipulated, but as soon as it comes to their favorite character, they would revoke or IGNORE the manipulated character for them.
Chapter 6-7 Anna gets mad at lily for messing around with the red chick. Then when it came to a confrontation in the garden where red chick asks how lily feels, Anna encourages them to be together. Leaving lily right away, ending the situation on a bad note. Then chapter 8 starts and despite the previous argument, Anna is all happy and excited suddenly pushing lily to leave the mansion with her. Lily called her out, yet no reader here listened to her VALID POINTS. Anna didn’t do shit to confirm her feelings for lily and just ignored everything going on between the red chick and lily. Lily provided Anna with multiple opportunities to at least say she loves her back. But Anna refused to do that. Anna waited until it was too late to finally confess and realized that lily could choose someone else over her. And don’t say Anna was holding back for lily, when she clearly had no issue in her last chapter where she was about to go all the way and confessed regardless.
Why would the naive lily, choose Anna, who left her insecure about her feelings multiple times, and switched up last minute, over the red chick who was showering lily and reassuring her of the affection she had for her. It makes sense why lily made that choice. She chose the one who made her feel secure in that moment instead of the one who switches up whenever. Readers truly do not think with their heads as to why characters make decisions.
