i heard that after he is slaped he reveals all of "the villainesses" acts done and states why they were done (aka to protect her sister) and then proposes to Villainess.
Only the slight issue of Marso wanting luxury. High end sweets, servants, money and modern world items which could be difficult to obtain but I’m honestly jealous of her position. I want that. I’m lazy so I would fit in perfectly ( ̄∇ ̄")
They are not lovers to elope what he wanted was to prevent her from becoming miserable not being together. And prologue seems to indicate they are going to leave together eventually
This is a roller coaster ride with lots of twists and turns which will make you hold tighter while feeling nauseous.
