This is really cute and I'd love to see where it's going. Pity it hasn't been updated for four years. One can always hope.
She was in the hospital, having nearly died and having lost her 7 month baby. He wouldn't go and see her because he couldn't show her any weakness. I'm sorry to be so critical, but this dude is several members short of a quorum. A person would have to be hard-wired this way in order to be so divorced from normal human emotion.
To those who absolutely hate this because it isn't 24 and 7 mayhem and murder, or the dramatic and tender love story (a la Manon Lascaut) to end them all - just go on to something else. The whole point of this manga is to be hilarious, silly, ecchi fluff. It definitely succeeds at that. It's broad comedy, and you're supposed to read it for the laughs.

Couldnt have said it better
On re-reading this I noticed something. No matter how much of a flirt and how enticing Rosa was as a teenager what Sophia's brother did is called rape. What Leo did, then and later, was to blame her for it. Another point I noticed when Leo was getting all horndog and still thought the FL was his first cousin: the family is traditional Italian and therefore almost certainly Catholic. The Catholic Church does not condone cousin marriage and regards sex between cousins as incest.
I've never understood this trope about men sharing relationship details with their buds. "I only married her because she's pregnant." Okay, Butthead, it may have slipped past your pitiful little brain, but you just betrayed your wife. I have had disagreements and misunderstandings with my wife, but I never even told my father, mother, or sister, to say nothing of some pal. It's as though all these "high class" types the authors write about have all the couth, loyalty, and delicacy of a drug dealer living in an abandoned mobil home. I guess that the spirit behind, "Never kiss and tell" is long gone from our society these days. What's next, something like, "Hey Bro, let me show you the nude sneak pictures I took of my wife."
The very nadir of Harlequin style "romance," with all the ML's going past mere stereotypes into total cliches of toxically chauvinistic, misogynistic, and entitled playboys who believe they have the absolute right to have sex with any woman who catches their fancy. Basically caricatures of those for whom date rape is a way of life.
I like it. A Betty Neels story where the doctor wasn't an idiot. She CAN create an ML that isn't so stupid that I want to kick him!
This double-header by Susan Meier was a real breath of fresh air after the toxic family stories. Her stories are always pretty decent and interesting.
As adorable and wholesome as it can get. I would definitely enjoy more of this manga.
