Poor girl, I think Richard forgets that while she has the potential to be a domineering queen, she needs time to shed her lack of self confidence and needs to feel like she’s not playing dress up as a princess, he should’ve never left her alone even if she’s proven she’s capable…when you’re faced with your family who have beaten you down most your life it will take a long time to overcome such a wall which is even more reason he should’ve had something in place to help her against them….for such a smart man he sure does some dumb shit ┗( T﹏T )┛
While I wish she handled things more on her own I like how they stay true to the fact she can’t do much because the malnutrition and lack of muscle…there’s also other factors starvation can affect like sleep, judgement, etc because she’s in survival mode so it makes sense she struggled to have much more of a reaction to even her maid deceiving her as well as much of reaction to being treated well so I’ll forgive the fact she needs help currently but I do hope that she isn’t so helpless in the future and doesn’t need to be constantly saved
As for the ML, I like the clueless ones but I do wish he didn’t “fall” for her so easily, I’d have rather had the progression go from interest to allies to friends then lovers but it could’ve been just to set him up as ML from the beginning so we’re not left wondering? We will see how it unfolds but overall I like the art and the story while cliche has a few fun lil twists and lore to keep me entertained
Side note: I can’t wait to see her mothers side of the family get absolutely crushed (▰˘◡˘▰)
The east manor chapters really brought everything together, I always hated when the FLs family/friends would question if the abuse really happened when there should be physical and psychological evidence to prove it ╥﹏╥
Also because I’m nosy, you gotta start the Eternally Regressing Knight series you have in your want to reads! Soo good, highly recommend ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~
I hate her family but man imagine figuring out the daughter you thought you finally got back is just some monster wearing her as a skin basically….I don’t think any of them will be sleeping well after that
Side note I hope that instead of Penelope staying there that the Prince gets to find her in her OG world cause genuinely Fuck like 90% of those people (/TДT)/
Man while this story isn’t bad I really wish they didn’t jump from curiosity straight into romance, honestly they accidentally made the chemistry with sion and the FL better, I also just know that fake red ring is probably the thing they’re all looking for…sincerely hope they figure out soon, I also hate how they glossed over the ML and mother issues…she didn’t even apologize properly, AND ! Last complaint I don’t get why she isn’t making use of her medicinal knowledge???? Wouldn’t being a doctor or something be better then a lowly maid?? I don’t know ┑( ̄Д  ̄)┍
Not only did he let some random girls surround him, let one hang off his arm like a cheap bracelet, AND to top it off they’re clearly doing some kind of hidden play….if I saw my man smiling at some other woman with a boner I think id simply crash the Fuck out, he also wasn’t being observant of his girl even though he knows this is all new to her and that her family is a sight for sore eyes….icing on the cake is him fucking off even though there’s no way he didn’t hear the commotion or see others reacting to it…MAJOR Fuck up, one can only hope this doesn’t ruin all the effort Courtney put in to raise herself to his level (╯°Д °)╯╧╧
That plot twist of who she really was is absolutely perfect, it really brought the whole story together so beautifully…the way they’ve fallen in love in every time line…I wanna sob at how absolutely amazing that is that it didn’t matter who she became he always chose her every time regardless of her the way she looked, her family and background…a true story of loving the soul ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
Absolute masterpiece depiction of people who yearn for each other, it makes me recall that song that’s popular currently “drag path” by 21 pilots …seeing a piece of you in every moment because my vision and mind is filled with thoughts and memories of you ╥﹏╥
Side note Fuck the family for thinking any negative impact was because of the uke…he would’ve never got to that point if they didn’t lie like scum (╬ ̄皿 ̄)凸










The mystery was so lovely throughout, constantly had you guessing who was the real culprit? Why? How? It definitely added a layer of entertainment and complexity in the story since it showed how the FL could be an unreliable narrator in some instances, giving biased opinions on information she gave us, I only wish the ending wasn’t so rushed and that we get side stories(▰˘◡˘▰)
Also side note if you liked this manga you definitely should try watching bon appetite your majesty! (๑•ㅂ•)و✧
