What happened in the original?
Spoiler
The ml found her. He gave her, her family's honor back. On the day of the ceremony, the fl was very cold to him but very affectionate to his brother which made him extremely hurt. He visited her mansion but the fl chase him away saying he didn't notify her of his arrival and he was very upset but cannot do anything about it. There were a few more scenes of this where the ml was pushed away. He even told the fl that he's willing to be her obedient dog. I don't remember how they eventually get together but the ml suffered a lot before that.
Tysmmmm
It's a chronic problem at this point.
So many of the manwha adaptation I read diverts in the 2nd half or 2nd to the last arc.....
Makes me wonder why
Spoiler:
They didn't follow the original story. In the novel there is so much more groveling and making the ml pathetic. I was really hoping this would be the case but alas the artist might be rushing the story now. All those times marinating was for naught.
