Oscar plans to marry his fiance and make Ines his mistress after he kills Carcel.
essentially in a time frame that women were considered property, royal bloodlines were stricter on purity and inheritance of name rights. She comes from a very powerful family and having her, he would also get the backing of said family. He also covets her as a possession, so he doesn't care about legitimacy when he wants to be the one to "own" her. She proud, beautiful, and from a prominent family and he also has a deeply ingrained inferiority complex against Carcel. If he gets rid of carcel, he will be able to pressure her family into giving her up to him, and he will still maintain the pride and dignity of his time because her value has "gone down" ╮(￣▽￣)╭
Just as the first commenter said, the crown prince wants to make Ines his official mistress after he marries and kills Carcel. Rest assured he is highly delusional. Ines would never allow it, Carcel would never allow it, his father, Duke Escalante wouldn’t either nor her father, Duke Valeztena. In this timeline, the circumstances are different. The moment he and his wife even attempt this, they will literally seal their demise.
I didn't get it. If Carcel dies, Ines will be a widow and she cannot marry a royal (Oscar). I especially do not understand the part where they said that an unmarried man cannot take an official mistress.
Sorry, but what were they implying? Thank you.
