I was super on edge waiting for Jia's response cause I was sure as hell not going to be okay if she were to reject them and I was holding my breath as the chpater loaded and I'm srly just happy for Haebom that he got to reveal his relationship with a close friend. Thank god the author didnt make Jia an enemy cause Haebom and taesung deserves good people in their lives.

Is there a point to her being 12 and married to a 33 year old????

In the novel it's mentioned that her uncle, the king, wanted her away from her father. Her father didn't show up when she was born because it was his youngest child's birthday party. When he showed up his formal wife had died and her last wish was to return to the palace. So her half-brother was furious. Which is why he married his son and niece saying that an official wedding would be held when she becomes an adult (15) and kept her in the palace. However, the duke only has one legitimate heir and that's her. So she's both the crown princess and the duke's heir. Meaning she's in the way.

The most realistic thing in this chapter...
Canaria: *gets a haircut that barely makes a difference*
Canaria: new hair, new me!!!

It looks like she went from thigh length to waist length, which is about 2 hand spans. Of course on any shorter length, this would be more dramatic, waist ->shoulder, shoulder -> pixie. It's just math percentages playing with people's heads. Its like how 10-1 doesn't seem dramatic but 2-1 does. Still, visually doesn't change any thing but may make it easier too draw?
I swear im really liking this manga more and more. An non OP protag who is really just a cute little boy with auditing knowledge. You go Herscherik!!!
