A miscommunication trope isn't for them PLEASE! THEY NEED TO TALK THIS SHIT OUT, THEN KISS, THEN GET MARRIED, THEN HAVE THEIR OWN FAMILY, AND GROW OLD TOGETHER FOREVER!!!!
It’s not a miscommunication trope at all lol. She WAS hiding her og intentions from him out of embarrassment, yet he still figured it out.
This is more of a lack of transparency and trust problem more than anything.
You're right. At this point they will need to sit down and have deep conversations and all that stuff.
I get that we're now on chapter 90 and the slow burn is really on it's snail speed but understand that trauma is something that isn't easily absorbed by another person. Like, imagine. Put yourself in Ruby's shoes and then think as if you've lived two lives the first one with the trauma of physical, emotional, and mental abuse then in the second the same sht.. Would you be able to open up so easily to someone else about that? I mean think about it and REALLY think about it... Considering all the emotions and the thoughts in her head. The anxiety and (probably) depression... And that she was also thought to be the "beloved little sister who was treated as their precious princess"... You'd probably be scared as hell to tell someone else for the fear that they'd reject you... So patience my fellow readers. We'll get there eventually.
It's really unfair for the FMC since she is treated terribly by her supposed "friend" which is the prince.. Also to think that she might as well be used by her own father... that's just terrible
Time for a grand imperial wedding!!!!
