I comeback and read this time to time. And, every time i feel like a highschool bully lackey going, “ yeah! Make him more pathetic and miserable. What a loser for sticking around! Ha-ha!” And at some point I realised this manhwa js comically bad. Its so funny and stupid. This subgenre of toxic rich x poor shit has truly broken my logos ethos pathos. There is no perverse enjoyment other than sticking around to see how bad can it get from a writers standpoint.

Nothing new ever happens. There is no depth in plot, interpersonal relationships no world building no chemistry nothing.
Its all so tiresome.

Man the whole starbucks journey was so cringey. I dont fucking care about romanticising capitalism, i get that she needs a title to free herself from future dangers of getting hitched but she built enough of a relationship with her father for that not to happen. All her success is dependent on ML and that’s so fucking icky. She just asks ML for shit and it happens . Every arc is the same. Also the whole shtick of her introducing coffee to the ml like she is jesus cringe The chemistry between the main couple isn’t enjoyable, the father-daughter relationship here gives me the ick. She just uses the father as an atm machine, the older brothers are stupid. I do like her interactions with Henrique/ Enrique idk the kid but i feel like its another relationship where she is the messiah to the person.
The comedy isn’t my type point blank so there isnt much to say.
Man i just want a good isekai with decent world building and character development. Thats just too much to ask for

Not everyone is "obsessed" with her. She now has relationships with her brothers, her dad, and the ML. There is still the original FL and ML that want to get rid of her.
I feel like you are forgetting they have a partnership, a contract. She comes up with plans, ideas, etc. He helps her with resources and does researching. They both contribute in their own ways. They both gain money, why would she do all the work??

Thats the “business model” aspect of their relationship. The extent of her brilliance is limited to the same series of events. She asks ML to do something for her in exchange for money then ML will go like pikachu oh meme i have never met anyone this sPecial fmc will “try” to appear smug about it bcs she “bad” . Although i haven’t seen her do nothing bad. The author seems to rely on the actions speak louder than words theme it seems bcs people will talk shit about her but she wont do anything just either stare at them and the people talking shit will get intimidated on their on or she will break some stuff. This changed like chapter 62 and she actually stood up and did something bad (the nanny scene) and i liked that but its so much filler shit. If she was an engineer student in past life i would love to see real application of college math instead of just one recycled formula and repeated dialogue about arithmetics. This had such dark academia potential but it just wanted to be everything.
Flap or philip whatever, bro basically humiliated her on multiple occasions. On which it was always the ML who stoof up for her. How come there is no repercussions for him to have tried to burn Deborah literally on school grounds. No matter how ill-perceived her reputation is. She is still a princess and a niece to the academy dean and i assume one of the investors daughter. An old noble to boot. How come the word never reached the Seymours. This would have been an opportune place for political drama but nah ML solved it again.
Dont even get me started on the ogFL. She is point blank boring as an antagonist. Same shit different day typa shit.
The Seymours relationship feels unnatural and boring. The older brother is supposed to be comic relief but it’s giving a whole lotta nothing. I know many of you enjoy it but not me. As i said the humour aint doing it for me chief.
I do like the younger brother and appreciate his screen time.

Say what you will about this guy. Without him this manhwa wouldn't be half as interesting as it is now.
His twisted ugly feelings for Pen could have made him Eckles level psycho but his head kept him on the "right path" even if it meant killing parts of him with Pen. The feeling meter sometimes feels like a reflection of his feelings to him not for Pen as the MC but a reflection of how he feels about his feelings for Pen.
I need a Derrek POV just to see him suffer through his anguish when he realises just what exactly he wants of Pen. To face his his ugliness instead of shirking away from them in guise of honour when in actuality it's cowardice. His guilt from when he lost Yvonne and his misguided attraction towards Pen always stopped him from seeing Pen as his sister, adoptive, though, it may be. His lashing out on Penn, telling her to not appear in front of him, cringed at hearing ogPen call him brother to Pens indifference when she calls him the Lord. It's all obviously sad. Something no rationale could justify or empathize to. Being the logical man he is this is even harder for him to accept that what he feels for Pen isn't petty dislike for stealing his sister's place but his loathsome lust placed on a misfortune girl.
What can I say, I love a tormented mentally ill boy
He hates the king? Bro he wants you ain't no one asked your political opinions dawg. This duke Aaa mf smh
