Most readers blame Annette cause as most will say “ she ought to “, “ she would have “… pls do not impose an emotion on Annette that you as a reader feels she lacks and judge her for it… especially if the author did not make it clear…
Sheltered is sheltered, being sheltered does not make you a bad or good person… just highly ignorant/ naive to current affairs…
I will die on the hill that not everyone deserves a second chance and that not every relationship should end in romance… having a trauma bonded non romantic relationship is also good for healing…
Annette did nothing wrong and was mentally brutalized because when the ML went to see her in her gilded cage she smiled at him… like damn!!! She’s in a cage… not aware of outside situation .. what do you expect..
Heiner CONVENIENTLY forgot that it was her perceived innocence that drew his scrappy ass in …then turn around and hates her for it…
… I think people straight up confuse dark romance with domestic abuse…
PLUS
I think the problem is all you people that is cheering for Heiner X Annette to get back together really don’t care about her and is more about your fantasies…
You see her as a doll with no sense or emotion, sth that should just shrug off her past 4 years of Hell and learn her lesson then ask Heiner to forgive her for her ignorance then get together and live happily ever after…
But my question is where will they live Happily ever afterwards…,? In the Capital..???
1) the same capital that
a) shunned her after the revolution
b) made fun of her after her miscarriage
c) said she was seeking for attention after her double self elimination trial
2) in the Palace
a) where NO ONE respected her
b) where she was bullied by the workers
c) Heiner’s 2IC. Constantly throws gabs at her
MIND YOU ALL, Heiner heavily encouraged cause you know, she’s naive and must be punished…
Pls you guys should stop, I guess she can forgive him BUT it doesn’t mean they should get back together..
They can both just move on and heal independently… Damn!! And it could still be happily ever after
I visualize him with a semi deep tone, suave and does not rush anything in life.., his speaking, short and straight to the point, his stride …perfect gait, never speeds up for nothing heck even his exercise is weight lifting with his constant (sexy ) neutral expression…
In short, I want his dad!!!

...Some comments here piss me TF off...
Why MUST HEINER HAVE ANNETTE..???
MF was obsessed, put her on a pedestal and was then angry with her for staying on the pedestal...
I am truly sad about his past situation, BUT I am still trying to calculate how that affects Annette.
All I heard with his story was that, "your dad and the noble family hurt me, so I PICK YOU ONLY to pay that price.: I wont tell you what you did exactly but I will make sure you hate yourself enough to try self elimination twice".....
That's exactly what he was heading to...
NOW, for the Grande Finale..
Heiner;- Look at my chest wound and use the already built-up guilt to bind yourself to me again.
See, I am all for forgiveness, but this type of relationship is BS...
Ok then, where would she go back to?? The capital where even though she was the "wife" of the commander, no one respected her cause they knew Heiner wanted it that way???
Will she pretend to be civil with all those officers that openly ridiculed her, or will they be forced to give an insincere apology cause Heiner wants them to???
Or will the capital folks suddenly forget she's the child of their tyrant, and for 3 years after the revolution, she was the media punching bag...
These people MOCKED her when she had a miscarriage and said she wanted "attention" when she tried to self eliminate TWICE.. cause Heiner did not protect her image at all
I mean, think about it, is it so bad if she lives in a small village and be happy there with new friends... she can be their nurse... WHY MUST SHE EAT HER VOMIT after some tears...
...The only logical reason I could come up with about those who applauded when they reconciled is that you do not see her as a "real" person. I know she is a character, but it's beyond my point....
I want you to tell us with your hands on your chest that if Annette was your Younger sister, cousin, BEST FRIEND, or neighbour and you were well aware of what Heiner put her through, you would support their tearful reconciliation...
You might say yes, but that just means you are emotionally removed from they friendship to begin with. no sensible person will support them coming back together..
They could be a little friendly with each other if they ever met, but sincerely, you would not want them together anymore...
Even the Author knew what she was doing. She NEVER LET Annette completely disappear from Heiner's grip; she was ALWAYS at his reach WHEREVER she went ...so of course they have guilted / gaslitted her into thinking she bears any fault whats so ever...
If Annette is guilty of anything, is that she was unaware of the plight of her countrymen (because she was HIGHLY sheltered). That is her crime. SHE DID NOTHING WRONG TO HEINER...
He can cry me a river, but it does not dispute the abuse he rained on her for 3 years and gloated over...
Y'all will really forgive anything....
I do not get this household AT ALL... why are they bent on giving her sh*t when they never even let her on the playing field.. I mean, our crazy FL never even went to school, or am I wrong???
YET..
They are all making it seem like it's due to her incomprehensible "incompetence" when it's not. By the looks of it, without even trying, she's good at business. Meanwhile, the Men are enjoying what was handed to them on a silver platter, and they are acting as if they built it brick by brick from the trenches.
The firstborn should chill a little...
ps.. I support her systemic destruction of that family....
... I know the background of this manhwa is done in greyscale BUT I would love to see her in colors... nothing too fancy cause this drab chic vibe is beginning to weigh her down especially now she's dating the ML....
Look, from the get-go, we KNEW they would get together. It was the "how" that intrigued us.
BUT
What I find insufferable is that they are making her so weak towards him... I am wondering, thinking back to their last interaction after her escape and her insane fear of his arrival that she gave up her Royal position to wait for his "attack".. even though it did not come to now, BLUSHING at anything he says/does... This is insane. I do not get the leap or glide through...
Girls can see the prettiest man in their life and walk by without looking back or even meet a stranger in a bar and have the most soul-connecting conversation and at the end wave goodbye as if nothing happened.. so to see her blush LITERALLY at anything he does is a little disconcerting...
...What is this????
what does it mean????
what "regret" is the author trying to force on her(us)...
This is skewing to the left ......
... I have exams...
BUT
I would have preferred Cayena staying dead, you know, to razzle dazzle this monotonous story line.. MIND YOU, I LOVE HER so this is no hate on her character.
I just think it would be a good departure from norm.. it could be a bitter sweet ending where her and Regef pass on and the (buttoned up) ML will actually think for himself and live a life he thinks she would approve of...
Hence, the snot-nosed white-haired kid now becomes the ruler... all innocent and free of malice..
... The step-mum is so ridiculous...
I mean, if you hate this child so much that you would deprive her of basic education, trap her at home and isolate her from her step brothers... The least you could do is deal with her narrow world view and her obsession with you..
This woman would have sent this girl to a boarding school in Switzerland, and nobody would know who she is, prevent her from ever coming back and give her the means to stay abroad, BUT no ...
please deal with her as she systematically unravel your household
I am blind in my left eye and can barely see from the right when it comes to REGEF...
From the beginning sth about his love/obsession with Cayena was just too sad. it endeared me to him ..
I know now CAYENA is Amazing, but in her first life, even the ML did not like her so that says a lot about her character..
..But she's THAT GIRL now..
This is for Heiner's apologist. Please revisit chapters 15 to 20 again and still try to blame Annette for not wanting anything to do with Heiner
...But for the rest of us, let's start from chapter 16 to really cement our dislike for him again..
we need a boost cause his passivity might be getting to some of you so pls go back to chapter 16 and remember what this MF did to Annette
I almost had a seizure thinking Heiner would say yes to her request, SO I am glad he said no to seeing her. We need space , people...
I do not need no trauma-bonding partnership here...
