Reflection time (sorry for the long post)

Wow! I love this story but I have so many thoughts right now. First, the FL and her dad need to learn how communicate ASAP. The dad is so cute but if only he could show his true feelings and expressions to his daughter. I think he doesn’t know how to express himself or is trying hold back his expressions in front of her. That’s why he always has a cold and neutral facial expression when speaking to her. I’m also having trouble with how young her dad looks, he looks more like her brother. He is so damn FINE!!! He is perfect ML material, so we need a flashback story of his younger days. Loving how the ML wanted to kill her but now he’s falling for her. My theory about the novel in the story, is that poisoning the princess was planned by the duke as a distraction to have his daughter escape and overthrow the king. The duke said that it wasn’t time yet, when he was thinking of overthrowing the king in the current story. His daughter getting put into prison was to not have the king target her. Since the prince is on his side, the prince’s mission was probably to have her escape and the duke gave her the knife to protect herself while escaping. That’s probably why the prince shouted at her to stop before she stabbed herself. I feel bad for the duke once he finds out she committed suicide. He’ll feel guilty and that could have been avoided if they communicated and he would’ve told her of the plan. Hopefully they do communicate this time and avoid that tragedy. ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
