Yesss, the concepts are honestly great but the execution not so much. I feel like there’s build up to something that’s super interesting then we just get left hanging. The second prince was for sure a big one of the moments like Lottie’s purpose to the story is so odd to me because at first i was like okay we’re gonna get some child care trope but it ended flat like she was forgotten in the back. Also I thought the aide finding about she was Gabby was gonna be a big deal that fell flat too. So many things were just left hanging and a lot of the characters are inconsistent, I just feel like things are a little too rushed.
This manhwa would've been a lot better if they just fleshed out the details more. There's heart to this, and potential but everytime something comes out it feels like it is from nowhere- it and works only some of the time.

For example the scene with the 3rd prince and him taking out the paper heart that the original peony made- worked and admittedly cried, but like where did that come from? Wouldve been better to maybe mention he always carries a chest with him or a short flashback when he was reminiscing about his sweet naive sister, it would have hot harder.
For the times it didn't work- well most of the story is just that. Like the original main characters, gets lots and lots of exposition but doesn't appear at all and is suddenly close to the main characters- same with the fl relationship with the 3 commanders or something. And the 2nd prince, we are told he's evil and smart but from what little time screen he had he's just dumb and already is defeated…
I think they could've cut down all the would be remember be, and the multiple proposals and just have those scenes intermingle with them fleshing out the story, maybe the novel is better.
Do I have other problems with this manhwa? Yes, did I read it and enjoy it all- yes. I will wait til this finishes to read it again, also way to late to string any coherent reviews so if you read all of this I give you some lemon candy.
