So.. I'm guessing he burned his palace down, gave all his stuff away to his people. While making sure the rumor that he died in the fire spread. So he can go live an ordinary life with Mishe? From now on he's a dead prince. He doesn't have a title on his shoulders.. That's just a guess tho.
And what he said while thinking of her, something along the lines of - Your happiness shouldn't solely rely on being with me. So I wonder what Mishe will do now that the hope she had to be with him is gone? I mean that's all shes been thinking about for 6 months. That's really sad :(
Will she fight and escape? Get revenge? Or give up? :O

Yeah I agree with you. If he did 'fake his death' to run away I think that'd be too clichéd. And he doesn't seem like the running away type. Even mishe would hate him for that. Honestly I think he did that so he can get a rise out of Mishe, only cause of what he said thinking of her. & that his brother automatically thought of giving the 'memento' to mishe. I wonder why? Maybe she'll wreck havoc now in her hostage situation

I thought of this also because I've seen comments saying Mishe isn't as how she was in the beginning. 'No longer a strong female lead' almost like a damsel in distress. While I can see how they think that, I honestly just think she's integrating herself into palace life & realized that in other people's eyes she's just one of the Prince's lover. Which, idk, made all her actions about that. Maybe cautious, calculated, almost like her identity was always with him.
So I'm hoping to see, once she realizes that her prince isn't going to save her, what's she gonna do?
And this theory is just where she DOESNT know he's still alive.

ROCK MY WORLD
(° ʖ °)

I mean he could've literally said something else like "come at me" or "come on" similar to the last time or something and it woulda been on parr with the rest of the manga but like ROCK MY WORLD came out of his mouth and I'm like:
(⊙…⊙ ) Is this really the SAME character? It's not like he's one of those flamboyant neon gays so what gives.
I JUST WANNA PUNCH HIM IN THE FACE GAAAHH
