I don’t know what kind of happy ending I was expecting when I started reading

I have two hopes for this.
1. The author doesn't pull the "and despite the ML committing countless unforgivable sins against the MC on purpose, the fall in love"
.2. The bitch dies. For fking once, the bastard needs to die and not have some bs twist make him a hero or martyr.

I have no expectation of happiness, especially since the author just dropped a death flag on the 2nd ML. Any time a character makes a "after so a d so, I will such and such" promise, they get a Ned Stark special ╥﹏╥
