Original plot for the parents!

whatever June 2, 2025 7:08 pm

I'm hooked by the plot with the ml's mom like she doesn't seem to love the duke and even one of the duke's first question to the ml was "what is your mom planning?!" not "where is she, I missed her so much!" and even his interactions with the ml are kinda weak? like he isn't overly defensive/agressive towards the duchess when it comes to him so I'm like was there really an affair or was the duke manipulated by the ml's mom??? Even more so when you look at how the duchess behaves. She really doesn't seem that bad and aside from not giving his original room to the ml she didn't really do anything malicious. She seems to act like a decent duchess too, she's not arrogant nor really jealous ... while ml said she despises him it could be that it's not because he's the result of her husband's affair but more like he's the result of some dark manipulation plot by ml's mom? Bro... I'm more invested in that side of the story than the romance between fl and ml... which seems quite predictable for now tbh (〜 ̄△ ̄)〜

    yup! I thought the same but maybe I'm reading too much into things because I just want to read something with an original plot for once instead of the boring romance for which you can already predict the plot by just reading the first two chapters ( ̄∇ ̄")
