I would just like to take a moment and thank the translator for working so hard on this. You’re amazing. And I’m glad you worked things out with the original translators. (●'◡'●)ﾉ

Are we not gonna talk about the MASSIVE loophole Selena may or may not have accidentally created for herself? Her contract with Ignis is signed in her brothers name...grant it, it would require her to throw her brother under the bus. But she at least has a legal way out. And she’s stronger than Ignis. If it came down to it, she could take him on in a fight.
I thought of this too but I have a feeling if he found out she was female, he would perk right up and go the good genes route.
Ignis: "A woman stronger than me with unwavering dedication to family? Bear my children."
He may or may not throw her brother to the chopping block. He would probably be so enamored he would forgive the deceit since he admires her feelings of responsibility and all. He's already proven to be a man who doesn't stop to get what he wants.
Yeah I was considering that too, something like, “you’re a female? Great, now we can make our contract even more binding....with marriage. If you marry me I’ll even forgive you and your brothers deception.”.....
F*** man, that might happen. Although Ignis does need Blondie to be his wife for political stability. So idk, that might work in Selena’s favor if/when he finds out she’s a girl. Although, maybe he can he have multiple wives??? Oh dear.
Anne is spitting FACTS. Although I’m not down with using that sweet boy to get revenge with a fake engagement. Cuz I think he actually likes her a little bit? Although I might be miss remembering. He might just see her as a kid sister. But I feel like I remember their being a few moments where I felt like he liked her.
Well im just glad tgat she was straightforward and let him know it was for revenge
I also love the comments left by people who clearly don’t understand how abuse works. Just because the abuse and neglect stopped doesn’t mean everything’s suddenly better and now she can just accept her family’s “goodwill” for her. That crap doesn’t just magically go away. Not to mention they still act like everything in the past is still all her fault. I wouldn’t trust any of them either if I were her.
I really like this story overall. The dynamic between the FL and the ML is really fun to see. This is one of the only times I’ve been genuinely unsure of the MCs intentions, the FL obviously is just trying to get out of there alive, but I know she genuinely cares for the ML and wants to make things as easy as possible for him. Even though she still doesn’t know what his real feelings or intentions towards her. She’s walking a tight rope and it definitely interesting to watch.
The ML’s real intentions are actually a mystery to me. I still can’t tell if he wants to kiss her or kill her. Maybe both? He’s very good at playing affectionate brother. But it’s clear that to at least some extent it’s just an act. He protects her, but it’s mainly because it’s in his best interest to at the moment. And he seems to be possessive of her. But I don’t think it’s out of a romantic attachment? At least, not yet? Also, with that whole reveal about what his mom said to him about “don’t trust people who say they love you.” It was like, “Is he trying to play the FL right now? Is that why he has those random moments of affection? Why? Cuz he doesn’t actually believe she’ll step down as head?” I genuinely don’t know and it’s refreshing not being able to easily predict where this is going just yet.
