she's never been truly scared of him which is obvious from how she talks to him and her actions have always been consistent with her personality. Also, how she being bossy. Del treats her as an equal and not inferior like other ml's so he listens to her. I don't if you only skimmed this but I recommend rereading if you truly think that. It's fine to not like her but your reasoning for it is flawed
Uhm? Are you kidding? He pushes everyone who is close to FL away. He literally made her maid go away. That's obsessive. He plans on like completely dominating her and hates when others talk to her. And why does she shiver around him and such? She may not be scared of him all the time but there are definitely times where she is really scared of him. And I've seen quite a few scenes where she's demanding him to do something or not do so3.
I'm not necessarily liking the female lead as much it's like chapter 40 and I'm starting to dislike her. At first I loved her character because she was smart but now I feel like she's becoming dumber by the chapter. Like she was worried that ML killed her maid and then the next chapter she suddenly admits to loving him? I don't understand this. She constantly thinks he's a psychopath and is scared of him then the next chapter she'll boss him around or something. I just don't see the consistency. She's like every other FL now with that shitty attitude while falling in love. The first 20 chapters really had me intrigued now she's really losing her likeable points. I don't dislike her enough to drop this but it's just a bit annoying.
