After Tia's brother became emperor of course it was all with the help of tia of course and idk what happened but they had to find someone to become the black sheep and take responsibility for the crimes or whatever I forgot and the emperor ordered to cut Tia's hand and legs. After that when Tia gave up and was in prison our ML sort of kidnapped Tia and asked for her help because he knew that she was used by her brother and with the help of her knowledge they could even win their fight against the emperor in the rebellion and he didn't accuse Tia inside sympathized with her pain and begged for her help. That's why she said that it was ML who choosed her. I'm sorry I'm not really a good narrator but yeah basically this is it
I FORGOT HOW THEY MET IN THE FIRST LIFE SOMEONE PLS REMIND ME
