Well, despite everyhing that ogfl did to our fl, she was sort of pardoned and she and Cliff got engaged and eventually married.
Before fl left for the territory with ml she talked to her and advised to write her own story moving forward.
She totally misunderstands and all she does is stop pretending being modest and sweet.
She starts living lavishly, buying expensive and extravagant clothes and jewellry that put original Edith to shame.
Her extravagance and rude manner earned her critisism from nobels, royals and her own family. She decides she needs influence and starts pestering everybody in the house, including the aide : he eventually lives dutchy and joins the mcs.
Then she decides to act like the dutches and demands to be in charge of the end-of-year banquet (duke and duches are still in good health). She again makes the banquet more lavish than royal family. The dutchy got seriously reprimanded since it looked like a political challenge.
Family grew more and more distant: no one got along and fl notes how one girl destroyed such great ties in such a close family.
At the end ogfl gets desperate but rememberes the final event of the book where Lizz finds the lost prince at an illigale slave auction. Not this time though: all she gets is a similar looking boy, who she grooms to play the role. It gets out. Edith finds the real one and pleads for Lizz's life. Her marrige with Cliff gets annuled by the king and she is sent to a monestary.
Cliff spends half a year locked in his room, then appologizes to fl and ml. Couple years later he marries a nice girl and the family starts recovering
No , sorry for not being clear!
Lizz got nasty and often snaped at him. He stayed loyal and she acted annoyed and avoided him. Whenever he tried to asvise her she lost her temper. He couldn't even divorce her because she put a condition of no divorce in their merrige contract.
Thier marrige was annuled by royal family.
Cliff was depressed because he still loved her and tried to protect her and she didn't even pretend to care
Ml's father is definitely gonna regret how he treated fl, his ogfl is gonna ruin his dukedom.
