heh! I don't care how anyone tells this and that about Helena's character, she's still shit.
She's just a jealous hypocrite with overwhelming confidence on other people's kindness that she don't have to do anything to spite anyone because someone else would do it for her. All she has to is act oblivious and sit pretty.
that hurt look on her father though... he may not be expressive, but he dearly cares for her daughter. I remember reading somewhere that he didn't support marrying her daughter to the royal family, but because of the king's order he had no choice, and it seems that Eris loved the prince so... IDK if I'm right or remembered it clearly though.
Fuck the Prince! the kingdom's future is dark with you as their future ruler. Just fall off the castles walls and die.

He can bungee jump to hell for all we care, that would be fun for sure.
Fly off the wall with yer rotten soul, ye raggedy shit,
(dear me, I'd risk going to the gallows just to curse him at his face if he was real, then I'd wait for him in hell and apply to be a staff just so I could get assigned as his punisher and put him in a boiling pot of magma and mix it up with a ladle.)

And that friends is one of the example of equality. Man, woman, Humans, animals, plants, all lives are the same. When inflicted harm goes beyond insanity, no matter how young or old they are, Traumas never choose their prey.
In reality, we are all capable of doing anything, it's just that our mind is the limit.
I feel bad for the king, though he may be a fictional character, I hope his and the real people out there's trauma heals. (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ c'mon have some hugs.

I feel like ML had let her go and go for some illness... IDK
There's more to the story and though there's pain they both parted their ways peacefully and with regret.
I support them rekindling their love because why not? And from the looks of it, ML was the first one to get shot by Cupid's arrow. I'm curious what will happen next.
I was nervous I thought the update will have just more talk less fight and I was afraid to wait for another update.... boy I was not disappointed! more please! hahahahaha
eat that namgoong!
and well, we've had a lot of transmigration stories already that the novel characters are not what they seem like in reality and that many things happened that was not said in their respected novels.
thinking back to that chapter where MC visited the original FL of their world, they had a talk about the poison thingy and that original FL is not bad as well, they're friends. so it got me thinking that, the original Haewon is much like how is haewon now, she's just more honest and upright compared to the previous Haewon who's cunning and eccentric in many ways.
and maybe, she doesn't really have any feelings for the namgoong shet, I can see her as someone who does not have any martial arts power would try to make their marriage happen just for power and status so that she can have a say in their family.
She's a villainess indeed because she lived and followed her own virtues. Indeed she's done a lot apart from the poisoning incident but that's in the line of her being noble in status and from which family she came from. her being haughty is justified, she's rich and have a powerful family.
I don't think she's an idiot as well, like how the novel says that she listens and just accepts her fiendish stepmother's whispers. she didn't look like that in the flashback. and before the Mc even transmigrated, she didn't try to redeem herself and clear her name like what jealous and brainless cliché villainess would have done. I think that maybe she thought that unnecessary because she don't feel compelled to clear her name. And maybe another thought is that she share the same sentiment with the original FL as they're both powerless women that couldn't even dare to chase their dreams so as experiment, if the original FL was able to change her fate by drinking the poison, maybe a change of tide would happen to her as well...
Omg... my theories hahahahahaha
