omg I was right for the most part and I still feel really bad for og family. she's happy with her new family tho kdjsbdjajbs.
maybe this prob could be solved if emperor and Duke just get married and they can have shared custody LMFAOOO. if she does grow past her trauma, it'd be nice if she could get along with her og family even if she doesn't actually go back to them. that poor dad;; At least Duke is treating her with all the love in the world

I think I read that the ig family (mostly the father) didn’t get bewitched or brainwashed. He just believed that because MC had no spiritual power that she wasn’t worth it and since his second daughter had spiritual power that she’s his real daughter, so I don’t feel bad for og family at all
Sure they got brainwashed and lied to but the Mc is in a worse place bc she got abused and even after telling og fam she’s the real one and her power got stolen the emperor didn’t believe her so yk
in the first couple chaps, I can tell this is one of those "the og family was possessed/magicked/etc to hate mc and treat her poorly" which always make me so sad. most of the time the og family loved the mc when some fake child takes over and ruins everything or smt. og families are sometimes victims but still get hate hurts, tho the way some mcs refuse them even after the truth is revealed due to trauma is so valid ╥﹏╥
so far I'm betting the empress threw away this mc without the emperor or prince knowing or realizing in some way?? I'm a lil sus in the sense that depending on when mc was thrown out, how long did it take her father to realize? I can imagine he took a long time to find her cuz I don't doubt there's a bunch of orphanages. the current empress if def not mc bio mom cuz that would not make sense. so maybe in the orphanage for like 3 yrs? on top of the the red haired chick is clearly scheming and I'm positive somehow manipulated mc father.
gonna have to continue reading to see how much of these general "predictions" are right but damn if I'm right im gonna be emotional. I can't imagine having a child and loving them only for you to lose them due to some jelly new wife and then treating them like shit cuz of like magic or whatever. that sounds like a parent's personal hell.
idky I'm yapping like this is the comments lmao
