Good luck they are all so full of energy.
like and she thinks if she was nice to him then she could open his route? cuz that's happened in these stories before.
It's not too late to tell someone the truth! Run now! Redeem thyself!!
Like he's not even really trying to get back with her anymore. He is just going after the ML. I think on some level he knows that she doesn't want his ass so he's going for the "softer" target.
Was he pissy that his mom couldn't deliver them in person? I get that he isn't at 100% with her, nor should he be, there is 15 years of neglect to cross over. But now there is gonna be some weird fight isn't there? Like the new chick was simply told to deliver some flowers, she's just doing her job. She can't just tell your mom no cuz she is a lady in waiting. So take the flowers and throw them away later or whatever.
Yes, he was mad, but he's an emotional teenager so applying logic is moot.
Real life people deal with shitty abusive and hateful parents, as well as parents in law all the time. At some point if a couple wants to thrive they gotta tell their parents to fuck off if their parents cross a line. If they don't their marriage will either continue to be hell, or it will fall apart. This story is that but cranked up to 1000
What I think we hope to see in future chapters is the Ml filling in the FL on her fathers behavior(cuz she doesn't know that there father is pressuring her husband). And that he makes an open stand against his shitty father in law. He is an adult and now has a high noble. Who cares how he got it, he has power now. He doesn't need to simply ignore his father in law's threats, he needs to tell him to stuff it. Even if it means getting the royal family on his side. Not because he loves her, though that would be nice, but because it isn't right to torture people over misplaced grudges.
Because right now both the FL and the ML are living life the way the want too. The Fl has no reason not to live her second life to the fullest. But if the ML can just do whatever he wants now, then why was he so scared of the father in law in his past life? They went back in time but I think it is safe to assume that they both returned shortly before Elle was born. Which means that he should still be under threat from the father in law.
They need something big to bring them together, or at least to get them talking about what happend in the past. The father in law is the best thing to do that. It would make the ML look like less of a coward in his past life if the father in law actually does something threatening in this life. Because other wise he ignored her to the point of getting back with his ex fiancée and letting her die alone just because the father in law threatened to take his dukedom away, and to kill the FL. Well his son rebelled and joined their country's enemy after learning the truth, so their goes your dukedom. And she died of sickness and heartbreak while you did nothing, so did you even care about her life at all? If the father in law can't actually take away his title(or at least doesn't try to take the title away). Or if he doesn't try to assassinate the FL, then his sob story is just like...Dude you got played in your last life.
Omg you literally wrote my thoughts. I agree with you like 200%.
To answer your first question, the ml was someone who didn't know how to make decisions, he was scared because his wife could die and he could lose his child, but now that he's turned back time, he can use the resources he had later in his life to better the future of him and his
*wife
What future resource does he use? And he didn't think to use it over the course of her life?
He was someone who didn't know how to make decisions for sure. All characters need flaws but his had such a big impact on other peoples lives.
He had the same resources later in life in his past life as he does now. All the events in the past are the same up until they both reawaken a bit before Elle is born. In the flashback he is shown showing concern for the FL and Elle while she was in labor, and then he went back to the norm of ignoring her. In this timeline he is trying to change.
What makes him unlikable, maybe even unredeemable to me, is that fork in the road. He was so riled up that he pulled out his sword and threatened one of the doctors that they shouldn't let her die. And then....nothing. She was able in this life to dismiss all those shitty servants like it was nothing. Surely if the father in law's treats were real then he would have had some spies within those servants. But either there was no push back, or the writer is (hopefully) gonna use that push back to big effect later in the story. The ML mentioned that his ex fiancée was in league with the father in law, and that the father in law kept positioning her near him in order to torture the FL. But in this new timeline the ML and the Fl pushed back against the ex fiancée in public at that party. So far no negative consequences from the all powerful and scary father in law. To my remembrance we've seen the FL once in this new time line and he was still taking the same bull shit. At least his son/her brother pushed back. I just hope that was some foreshadowing for future actions.
The father in law HAS to pull some shit in future chapters in order to complete the story and really give the ML a true redemption. Otherwise previous timeline him was just an easily swayed person that never thought of using his newfound power to push back and do the decent thing. Not even for love, just decency.
Remember when he married her, he had just started his life as a duke, he didn't have as many helpers like before, when I mean future resources I mean like having more support from other famous people etc
I agree with you, though I don't forgive him yet, I'm just waiting for him to redeem himself
But Reina literally just fired all the employees, as is her right as the lady of the house, he could've done that as well. Or just anything, really. Idk.
Holy crap are you a mind reader? Totally agree with you >_<
Once you get the money you need from him tell him to fuck off. Or don't tell him? Live your life, hire your own servants. In this time life it doesn't seem like the father has much influence at all. Is the only difference that she has been revealed to be a spirit user? Either way if he's blaming her dad it seems weird that her dad hasn't tried to meddle in this time line.
I don't know if the writer has considered that plot hole or if we just haven't seen her father act out yet. I do hope it gets addressed, because without it the Duke isn't fully redeemed yet. Right now he's done the minimum he could do to be nice to her.
I feel like we’ll hear from him soon actually, we shall see anyway
We'd better! That's too big of a plot thread to just leave hanging.
Yeah, it’s too big of a thing for it to not be taken seriously
Hahahahah .He thought he was being so smooth too with that "I think of you when I'm alone" line. She's already told him that she thinks he is less attractive than her brothers (the blonde has a better face, the red eyes has a better body). So Idk why he's still trying.
But really the stones on this girl, just friendzoning a mother fucking prince.
The High Priest is the MVP!! I'm so glad he is an upright person. He knew that the divorce was shit because Navier is the perfect Empress.
