Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait I'm confused. Why did he burn that letter? Wasn't the blonde guy's family name Ruman? Roman? Or was it the family that Lorrain married to in the past life? WHO IS RUMAN? HELP! I NEED NOTES . Also why did the grandfather burn the letter?

yes ruman is the blonde guy that proposed to lorrain! no spoilers (hehe i read the novel)
however, the grandpa has such immense pride for lombardi, i mean he literally refused a engagement from the royal family, especially one where its an arranged marriage is not what he wants. he basically wants his family to have anything they truly want, and he doesnt know if lorrain even wants to get married

a quick search should give u results but this one has up to chapter 313, so the main story is done but i think the rest is pretty hard to find? (idk if im mixing this novel up w another novel haha) https://lightnovelheaven.com/series/in-this-life-i-will-be-the-lord/

Ruman/Luman/Roman it's confusing lol but basically he had to burn and "ignore" that letter so as not to drag Ruman into the impending cold war (3days) between Lombardi and Imperial Family. Also from my understanding, to avoid "conspiracy against the Imperial Family" which can be twisted as treason.
It's to show that the aggression is one-sided only and only from the Imperial Family.
Funny how the emperor thinks Lombardi can’t survive without being the capital. Honey, you can’t survive without them HAHAHAHA
