Tbh I don't hate the emperor and I understand that he wants love and not just a companion but he didn't even try to make their relationship well with navier. he just assumed she's too prideful to love, and now he's thinking he found that love in Rashta. tho, the truth is Rashta doesn't even love him. everything about her are lies and empress loved him but never showed it when he stepped over her feelings thinking she probably doesn't care. I hope the emperor realizes his mistakes at the end tho, especially the part that navier did love him and he was the one who threw it away
I can't stop crying that I bothered to read this mess
I feel bad at how many hours you must've wasted
I hope the female lead properly rejects him and kicks him or something if he tries something shitty
I feel like there's more to his personality than just being "workaholic". maybe he's frustrated because his family doesn't support his work so wants to prove himself to them and besides, making money as a writer can be really HARD.
