I’ve read the novel till ch 33 for now, contrary to popular opinion, I think the ML isn’t that bad, he hasn’t coerced or forced the MC despite having an upper hand in every possible way, i think he seems desperate to earn his trust… to the point he scars his own face everyday, in fact he’s trying to win him over by kindness, BUT the thing is ML does have red flag thoughts and schemes about MC but he also kinda has a soft spot for MC, maybe he doesn’t realize it yet, so he fails to act on his thoughts.. he’s just weak when it comes to MC!!
