He's the only one who nevers admits to anything and redeems himself, until the bitter end. Also, he harbors feelings of romantic nature towards Penelope, which he can't admit to. That's why he's willing to destroy the familial bond they have as a brother and sister. While no doubt this Ivone isn't the real one, I don't remember him being enchanted to bring her to Penelope's coming of age ceremony in the novel. He, in fact, just saw it as an opportunity and did so willing. He's the only one who never truly accepts her as family. His feelings are selfish and nauseating. Also, i disagree, his hypocrisy in the chapters you've already read are in fact enough to make him loathsome to many. His brother is at least admitting his mistakes and has character development, enough to actually make him redeemable.The same goes for the father.
Fair fair. He was very annoying especially when Penelope was held in prison during the hunting arc but I didn’t mean that he wasn’t annoying just that everyone seemed to hate him more than expected when checking the comments like something he did recently was bad. But that’s fair I did not know he liked Penelope will be interesting to read tho
I’m on chapter 30 and now I have to know what Darek did for everyone to hate him this much
