She's in denial. After everything she did when she's with Asher and some of his actions makes her deny that he's the prince. But ultimately, when she thinks of who he really is, she only come up with one constant answer which is he's the crown prince. Hahahahaha. I love those two. Wish there would be lovey dovey moments now. Or some jelly jelly moments would also suffice. Hahaha.
the novel gives more details on aria POV than the manhwa and it justify lot of her doubts. For example, in the past, the crown prince is not someone influential and many of his plan/ work for the country is failed. He is someone being toyed by the aristocrats. He also married Isis.
Since Aria change the past, its somehow has butterfly effect on the prince achievement and he start gaining power.
Oh, ok-? ( ̄∇ ̄")
Besides, what I'm talking about is, Some of the main characters are smart, but dense when it comes to figuring out.. important things? Haha, I don't know how to explain it.
For example, there's this intelligent main character that can probably figure out anything but when it comes to an important side/main/lead character(Idk anything about characters), she/he can't seem to get it.
Do you understand? Lmao, I suck at explaining ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭
Aria guessed that he's the Crown Prince many times but there are two reasons why she doesn't fully believe it
1: in her past life, the Crown Prince was being used by the aristocrat party and was useless to the general public
2: Asher's personally isn't like what Aria would expect for a Crown Prince. In her mind, a Crown Prince are those type of people would would sit there and wave at the crowd braindead. Not a man who's all secretive and cunning.
with both of these in mind and add on the fact that there's a better chance of getting hit by a carriage than being acquainted with the Crown Prince, it makes sense that she's denying her guess.
I know she thought about it before but at the same time I feel like she should be able to tell that he's the crown Prince? It's the only thing frustrating me so far
