I actually dropped this after finishing the novel even though it is happy ending. I didn't want to see the webtoon part where the empress knows that she is *hahdbjkamsnxkakodn* , it is too cruel :(
Those comments are right. Patricia is NOT infertile.
The physician who was in charge of the test results when they were choosing the Empress accidentally overheard Rosemond and Lucio talking about choosing someone who was infertile. So the physician fakes Patricia's health results because he believed (considering Patricia was of high noble status) she would be a great empress. The physician leaves the palace after that so that he doesn't get caught.
Around the middle or nearing the end of the story, Patricia finds out about the physician and thanks him.
WAIT WAIT WAIT!! I just re-read it and correct me if Im wrong but LIBERTIA is actually the EMPEROR's LEGITIMATE DAUGHTER because he clearly said that Leberitia's mother is the former empress while the current crown prince is the son of the woman he truly loved?? Meaning THE CROWN PRINCE should not be the "next in throne" but Libertia right??? NOTICE ME GUYS!!!
I cried at chapter 2... knowing the anxiousness and pain of our precious uke really depicts the real struggle of our gay sisters :( ya'know they mostly think that all we ever want in a yaoi story is the smut scene but they didnt even know that we get to see the view of others that we didnt know. We get to feel their problems, heartaches, worries and even their break ups. They all just want to have someone who accepts them and love them for who they are. Society really suck.
tried my best not to cry at the last few chapters especially when he got informed that they have a child and died at his hands :(( didnt expect this story to be good even though its pacing is kinda fast.
