He doesn't have an outside lover , as the novel reader he's listing Richard mother whose already married with the past grand Duke.

Where do you read the novel?
OH OKAY TYSM FOR INFORMING ME.
I probablu got it mixed up with some other manhwa I think or jusy misread ⁄(⁄ ⁄·⁄ω⁄·⁄ ⁄)⁄
OKAY I KNOW WE ALL HATE THE EMPEROR (i do too)
But it doesnt hurt to put ourselves in his shoes. Okay first of all, he was forced by the shitty empress because yknow she is a dominant omega. We can see the hints that he already has an outside lover(?). So him getting forced to have a child made him mad.
I DO AGREE, ITS IN NO WAY JUSTIFYING HIS BEHAVIOUR TOWARDS ETTIENNE.
I still wouldve hoped he suffered from the emotional trauma and neglect in parental duties.
Fuck him and the shitty empress.
