He couldn’t get the father so he came after the son.l, what a sicko. Yes, I hope the author clarifies this and I hope Ethan was not aware before he entered into the relationship and found out after. This and the cheating also is too much for my brain to handle. Let’s not panic, we wait for next chapters.
That’s actually quite a common trope in BL where they either fall for a person and because of unrequited love they date a family member similar to them. Even one of the biggest Japanese BL’s junjou romantica had that kind of plot. I’m not really bothered by that much since it seems like Ethan was in the know and they just used each other to fulfill what they want. It’s what happened with Ethan and the ex whilst Ethan is in a relationship that messed me up. I just know the author is tryna add stuff like this to build tension but it’s like a complete 180 of their characters in s1 and seems out of nowhere. I kinda expected the wren and Tristan obstacle since obviously they hinted that Tristan was in love with wren in the past and Wren is now being manipulated by the uncle to come in between their relationship. But the whole Ethan and his ex and the kissing came outta nowhere and out of character considering how jealous Ethan is. I literally never expected Ethan to go that far and down that route. Just disappointing.
You telling me Ethan’s dad was cheating on Ethan’s mom?!!!!!’ I better get some back story. How you in love with the father and tried to marry the son after the father passed? This is getting weirder and weirder….
