He's brainwashed, sure. It's normal to feel sympathy over his up-bringing. However, I believe that it doesn't add up. Clearly he has some type of obsession with her, the day he found her when he witnessed the deadness in her eyes. It just doesn't add up to him simply feeling brotherly love... I can't put my finger into this feeling yet, but it gives me the creeps. I do understand that he's a victim to his own father's abuse and threats, and I know he's doing this to "protect" her. However, one thing I've noticed from what's shown is that his father has never ever broken his own promises over things, and the recent chapter where he got angry over the monks having abused his "daughter" showed he wouldn't allow it to happen again, as he promised his son. I wonder how the story would have been if the FL had received that "freedom" that time. I don't defend the father though, I despise him to the core over how neglectful and abusive he is just like his greed. I just wonder what caused the original "Ruby" to end up like what was showed in the end. In Caesar's point of view, he hadn't laid his hands on og Ruby before, and it seems og Ruby did cherish him before. Was it that og Ruby also rejected the marriage with the Duke? Why did she wish for the downfall of her family, as she was also brainwashed to believe she was loved wholely as she is. I say so as Caesar clearly doesn't love her healthily and is insanely obsessed with her.
