I hope Cayena doesn't fall in love again with the Duke or even if she does, she doesn't get swayed and flustered all around. I want to she her planning, plotting and using the characters to her advantage until she's free. Until then, author-nim please don't let the fl get confused or stuck in cliches...

It’s not a big deal… but, she canceled her plan of run away because she figured that Rezef wasn’t suitable to be emperor. She realized this especially after he decided to kill her nanny and tried to cover it up. So she decides to become empress herself, temporarily, until her little brother (half sibling I’m pretty sure) is ready to take over the throne.
She cancelled plans for fake husband because when she and Raphael became lovers, at the time, he already had a solid position (he became the Duke/Grand Duke (I forgot his fathers title.)) so Rezef couldn’t do anything to harm Raphael. Therefore she didn’t need a fake husband anymore.
Doc Dan is gonna get sick but JK is still going to forcefully have sex or he is not gonna do it and then lose the match, which we can imagine will only make matters worse for our Doc Dan.
