Isn't her goal helping the duke be happy ? Which is why she wanted to make him comfortanble when he had the curse and just wait for the original heroine and then when she lifted the curse, the MC's goal was again, his happiness which is why she left so his reputation wouldn't be smeared by rumours of him loving a maid.
Now she came back with the conviction that the original plot is no more so she might as well help the duke be happy with her and achieve her own happiness in this love.
So, the way I see it she never strayed from her original goal. It just changed from "I hope he can be happy without me" to "I see his happiness is with me so I hope he can be happy with me"

Exactly. Well said! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
She is his happiness and likewise, he is also hers. She lifted the duke’s curse already and stopped his suffering. It’s high time they be together. And dude she didn’t change. She loved the duke in the very first place. If anything, maybe she loved him more lol
Anyway, idgaf about the princess in the story arch rn. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Okay girl. WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO OUR FL?! DID SHE CHANGE WHEN SHE LEFT?!
IT'S FUCKING ANNOYING YOU KNOW. It's as if she FORGOT her goal. I'm still reading this for one reason and that reason is our ML. BUT IF FL IS GOING TO BE LIKE THIS TO THE NEXT CHAPTERS THEN HELL NO. GOODBYE. LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT THE ORIGINAL STORY IS. USE THAT FRICKING KNOWLEDGE FOR YOU AND ML'S OWN GOOD. (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸 DON'T PUT YOURSELF IN DANGER. ( ̄へ ̄)
