i love how grandpapa is just building tia's podium(the house heads) behind the scenes for her. like, he's letting the others share tia's strong traits without him needing to vouch for her himself. they wouldnt see it as favoritism from him because their other fellow house heads had first hand experience working with her and instead theyd be the ones strengthening that stepping stone so her ascension to being the lombardi head is as smooth as can be, and with no competion too.
i feel like the people that couldve stopped all this heartbreak is the dad and hedric(?), cs like on, the dad couldve gone easy on luan esp with how much eating up that older brother's lie and; two, HEDRIC, YOU COULDVE AT LEAST MENTIONED HIS NAME IN THE LETTERS YOU SENT, LIKE WTAF IS THIS
brother, the side stories are literally at 17 right now and theyre not finished JUUN11XX
Honestly I think they just labeled it "side story" and called it a day. The end of the "main story" was so cut off and then they just suddenly said the continuation is a side when it should've been part of the main plot.
i might be wrong but i think its bc initially author intended to end it at ch 16 and since they already marked it as complete they couldnt just "open it up" again so they saw how ppl didnt like the ending and decided to make side stories
its not often you read a story where the other lead be so adamant on staying away for good or they dont easily let their feelings win. i just love the angst.
