Yeah, the usual trope of throwing in the mitigating circumstance to excuse the ML being a total shit. Happens in a lot of stories.
Oh, he had me raped: but he was beaten as a child and starved so he got warped.
Oh, he had me and family beheaded: oh, but he was under the influence of a lying advisor and a plot.
Oh, he had my child killed in front of my eyes: oh, but he was under a spell.
Bring in early drama with abuse, then excuse the abuse. It's so common we should have expected it, and many of us did.

it very good and the FL's become so badass and independent
I was hoping this was one where she changed her fate and ML, but naw. :)
I tend to forget what I read after I read it (in terms of titles and stuff). And the truth is, most of the He's an Abusive Shit With An Excuse ones rehabilitate the guy.
There are two I have on my bookmarks that update now and then (one where they knew each other young and the ML. basically sold her to be abused as a slave; the other the ML really is fucked up mentally, even in the second rebirth, it's obvious he was horribly abused, and she is still trying to change her fate, but I don't remember the names of either).
Hum no, this doesn't have even the slightest resemblance to what she said. Death Is The Only Ending For The Villainess doesn't have that kind of plot. Idk how and why did you think that it was this but I wasn't. I don't remember the name for the first one she said but it's a girl with purple hair and the webtoon has a really beautiful art (which is a pity, the story is shitty). I cannot retrieve it because I despised this so much, I didn't give a mark. So I don't remember the name too.
Anyway Penelope has nothing to do with this.
with Penelope shes not the same person who got treated horribly by her family, and yet she realizes they are scum (she does not forgive them). its about her not forgiving them and finding new people she can trust.
Tia is just obsessed with Ruve, he could just ignore or do something horrible again, maybe even by accident, and tia would be like, "its not your fault, k". She really needs an extra dose of self respect.
Did the prince and fl end up together? I hope not
