In the past life...What if after tia died , ruve actually regret for killing her cause he realized that he actually love tia and not jieun and that's why jieun is acting like a bitch ... Cause if jieun really had a happy life with ruve in her past life , her face wouldn't be so empty back when she first was brought to the castle...
That's why I thought , after tia died , ruve realized his mistake and ignore jieun while only remembering his memory of tia...and that's why the jieun who is ignore by ruve held hatred for tia .
And that's why in the current life , jieun turn to Duke zenia to get the prince and show her hostility towards tia clearly...
Well that's only a what if situation...so plz don't criticize me.... ╥﹏╥

I beg to differ. For me he never loved her. He never knew her. Until the very last line of his POV he only called her "bitch" and "concubine" in his mind. He had to ask himself who she was because he had no clue. He realized that she was a good worker, but not that she worked to the point of collapsing. They did not even eat more than two times together. Their only interractions was him abusing her. He regret killing her because she worked hard and he realized that he misundesrtood her. But love? Hardly so. He only missed the "idea" of her or the fact that he lost someone that cared for him after all. But nothing behond that. Also, he only started really regretting two years after the execution, when he found out that she was the one who prepared the cook for him and that she never planned to overthrow Ji-eun after all. He was selfish to the end, period.
And that goes for the second timeline too. He only like the emotional part of her. Her weark and childish side who cater to his taste and ego. He dislike her social mask and colder side (it's even clearer in the novel).

nono i totally agree with you. i don’t believe he loved her at all either. i’m not even sure if he’s capable of love LMAO but i just said that because that’s how majority of the readers perceive ruve and tia (that he had always “loved” her and that she had loved him too) but i don’t see it that way, he’s manipulative and has a inferiority complex towards tia

It's mostly subtext in fact. But super clear substext. Like him being sooo glad that when she is 40 years old she still act like a child and get cream on her month while eating cake. Mind you, she should be closer to 55 years old of mental age since time was turned back. Or him complaining when she use her social mask on with when, you saw it in the lastest chapter, he is worse than her in this aspect. At the very least she was not petty enough to give him the cold shoulder and just ignore him when she did not get her way.
Is this a good read or nah...?? ( ̄へ ̄)
The plot looks nice so and I just want to confirm...what do you guys think...???
honestly i got bored VERY quickly and im thinking of dropping it. plus the translation is bad, so that bothers me as well.
It's a nice story i enjoyed it
(=・ω・=)
I liked it. Some parts were a bit boring to read but other than that it was great
The first must be boring but trust me for me the story have a developement
oh ok then
i might start reading it again lol
I liked it very much. The top is such a smooth-talker. He’s down to make his lover feels at his best. Though the top is more to the denser side he is very gentle and loving to the bottom. however, the translation is a bit bad but I didnt mind abt it much and i’m probably going to read the raws afterwards... If you thirst for heart-warming stories that put more focuses on relationship, this one is def a go haha
