Ines and the men she chose

StoryofMinglan December 7, 2023 10:34 am

The manhwa adaptation hasn’t done a good job of explaining how things started between Ines and the men she previously chose. I see some act as though Ines loved only one man. Wrong. Ines fell for Emiliano after they were fugitives together and he was very kind to her. He treated her better than Oscar. One thing that Ines likes is guys who are kind to her. The reason she fell for Oscar is because he treated her nice and special at first. She loved Oscar during their engagement and their first years of marriage. They were married for 10 years so I would say maybe the first five or so were good years. Ines never denies this fact. She said it in ch 9 and says again later in the story.

As to Emiliano, she woke up/regressed wanting to love someone after Oscar treated her so terribly. Ines will always admit she chose love first then added the man to the equation. So, it didn’t even have to be Emiliano. It could have been just another random nice guy and she would have fallen for him. Ines also idolizes her life with Emiliano because it’s a stark contrast to her life with Oscar and Emiliano practically worshipped her (which shows they weren’t equal like partners should be). The jewelry store shop keeper hinted at this too when he finally met Ines and wasn’t as impressed with Ines’s beauty like he was told by the person who left the pendant that almost killed her.

With Carcel, she had firm walls erected against him She never intended to love him and she always tries to deny anything she feels for him. However, wouldn’t it be something that despite her walls and all the ways she talks herself out of staying with him that her heart loves him even if her mind doesn’t want to? It would be ultimate proof that she fell for him in spite of all her schemes and inspite of herself. It would also mean she met he first man she never intended to love but couldn’t help loving.

As to all three men, Carcel is by far the most suited for her. She has the most in common with him, they are equal in status and quite frankly, they get along swimmingly. The manhwa hasn’t even done justice to the relationship that is shown between Ines and Carcel since they began their marriage. All the times Ines has laughed, all the times they bicker, all the times they complement each other, etc. Hopefully the manhwa will now begin to show it as they go into the next stage of the story.

Also, if readers are basing Ines being with a guy because of a kid, then they’re building their foundation on sand because story will reveal a hidden fact about Ines’s past that makes that point moot.

    Correction: she woke up/regressed wanting love from someone.

    People who keep thinking Emiliano was the only one she love bc of the kid are just ignorant when she had 2 kids with Carcel in the rl 1st and Carcel was the 1st. They call Emiliano her 1st love but it's really Carcel too

    They think that because manhwa obscure the truth. Most people who think this way believes that Ines met Emiliano and fell for him. They don’t know she saw him, liked his face and decided to use him to runaway from marriage with Oscar. At least when manhwa had her sitting on him back in ep11, they don’t even realize how unmoved her face looked at first and then he started to cry, that’s when she looked surprised. She was dubconning a complete stranger whom she barely knew anything about so that she can use him for her goal.
