- He hasn’t changed since the very beginning of the story. Except maybe for the fact where he now has feelings for her, which he probably won’t recognize or acknowledge because he thinks love is a farce that leads you to be foolish (like his foolish parents who loved each other so much, they skipped town and abandoned him when he was a kid)
- The FL chose this to survive the slums and when she chose this, she knew exactly who he was because he has been his genuine self from the very beginning. Thus she has no need to run, nor does she want to
- She doesn’t hate the ML and she’s probably already in love with him, which is probably why she’s protecting herself by being cool and detached when he’s nearby, but we’ve already seen hints of her contradictory thoughts on that.
SPOILER Also I keep thinking she’s already in love with him because from what I remember from the detailed spoilers, even in the novel, she was very good at hiding her emotions and she only broke down when the ML asked her not to sleep with Esdra and she told him to beg her on his knees and when he actually went to his knees, she just started crying because she didn’t expect him to go that far.
