((also a guess))
I think the ml will be more at peace when he finds out the reason, because of how distrustful he is when receiving help with no downsides. It just feels like he's gonna go "oh so there is some use of me. she won't just throw me away when she gets tired of me"(I haven't read the novel so no spoilers)
I lowkey have a bad feeling that there’s angst coming when the ml finds out the fl is only really with him bc he enables her special ability. Like yeah getting proposed to a lot is annoying, but it’s nothing she hasn’t been able to ignore before. Getting her ability to make money back was the *real* reason.
She’s told him all sorts of things abt how she likes his face, likes his misfortune (etc) and endangered herself to save him, and he’s now thinking things like ‘she’s the only one who sees me’. He’s gradually coming to trust her but I’m not sure how he’ll feel when he finds out about this??? If I had to guess, he’s gonna feel used & go back into his shell emotionally at least.
I can’t remember who knows the real reason but I think the little brother will be the one to accidentally spill it (if he does know)
