Of course, that's not a problem, because as readers we have different views on each story, I understand that feeling... After reading the spoilers about this story I even thought about whether I still want to continue this story or not, because it seems that this will only end as you said, no justice for MC just a word of apology... And of course that doesn't make me satisfied either...
So the Stepmother was never a Saintess, she just used her "power" to manipulate and brainwash ppl into thinking she was. When in reality she was a dark mage.
After the first wife died the Saintess brainwashed the father and everyone into thinking she was a Saintess and became the second wife. She used her power to make the father belive that a curse had been placed on their family aka Ophelias curse and had Ophelia sent away for "her own sake".
The father came acorss Bonny /Boni who was starving and was intrigues by the will to live in her eyes and took her in. The Stepmother used an exuse of Curse tracfer from Ophelia into Boni to save Ophelia, but in reality its a curse on Boni to make everyone hate her.
The stepmother had brainwashed everyone and wanted to hurt Boni, making her life tormented and have her die from mentaly breaking. Hench the "teacher" drugging her and manipulating her (later it is revealed that Boni may be the next saint, hench the stepmothers hatred for her)
If FL is the next saintess, the temple will have to get involvet which will reveal the stepmothers black magic. Hence the atempts to break FL.
The father knows something is off in the house as the mindcontrol on him is weaker because he was been away, but still lets things slide. The brothers warm up to Fl and start to care for her. But the stepmother increases her mindcontrole as it no longer works on FL.
The brother will try to hurt FL and try to slander her as they grow older, under the step mother mindcontrole.
Later the stepmothers dark/ black magic / mindcontrole magic gets reveal and she gets imprissoned and executed. The brothers ask FL for forgivness and she gives them that, but also states she never thought of them as her family / brothers.
Oh and when the stepmothers dark magic / brainwashing was revealed, the father confronted her. The stepmother threathended him with Ophelias life if he did not let her go. He did not, he had a feeling that Ophelia was already dead.
Aparently after stepmother sent Ophelia away.. Ophelia was killed by monsters in a dark forest.. So she was dead al along.
Fl belives she reincarnated / soul trancfered into Boni's body after a failed ritual, but the truth is she did not soul tranfer/ reincarnate. She is Boni with memories and knowlege tracferd into her through the ritual from a dead person from another world, so Fl was alway Boni.
Damian is a whole other story...
So the Emperor became obsessed with Damian's mother, going so far as to kidnap her and inprisson her in the palace under the guise of "protection". He R-s her and force her to become his comcubine, and the Empress feels sorry for her.
An Orical arives stating that Damian the comcubines son will be the Hero of the Empire, brining salvation. This Orical causes the Emperor who has an inferiority complex to spread word that Damian will bring war to the Empire instead, on the day Damian is born the Emperor starts the war and blames his son for it.
The Empress helps Damian's mother flee with her child and has ppl help hide them in the Trash Pile.
The Emperor spreads word that Damian's mother was a Seductive Black Mage who brought chaos and war to the Empire, all because he didnt want his son to be a hero when he himself was a failure.
Fl helps Damian become Empreror and he asks her to be his wife.
Thats all i could find.
Tho there are sidestories.
