See not gonna lie I'm somewhat of a masochist that enjoys sad plots where the FL needs to thrive by herself.
It's all the more better if it slowly turns into a bittersweet love plot and then even better, to the point of relief and obsession.
This was a roller coaster and I CAN'T WAIT FOR AN UPDATE.
I'm glad I only ever picked this manwha up right now, else the anticipation and waiting would've killed me
If yall have any other recommendations similar to this one, please let me know.
BTW someone said this was quite similar to "My Belived Opressor" that's one reason to picking this story
Another one would be the FL and ML's personality. There's nothing wrong with a little manipulation but ML needs to learn to be Empathetic.
But hey, I'm here for the romance and desperatok and obsession.
Season 3 I hope you are releases out soon.

The person with the mental disease was the ML.
ML didn't love FL, merely was obsessed with her. Twisted obsession.
FL had faith in her parents being good people and didn't try to question their jobs and actions they took. Nor did she try to get into politics, exactly the way she was raised.
FYI, noble ladies are usually taught from childhood to be into hobbies that aren't really money making or political.
ML despises FL's fam and killed and overthrew them but started projecting this anger onto the innocent FL just because he didn't have anyone else to vent on.
ML also gaa lighted himself into believing that torturing her was right. And that she was meant to live unhappy.
And thought she'd be unhappy if she wasn't with him.
FL is ignorant and could walk out of i, but the trauma followed and made her unable to lift that obstacle.
FL just needs a will to live.

The translation in the first few chapters didn't make sense. But from chapter 18 onwards, it made sense
+ why is the ML being so kind and caring towards the FL???? She doesn't deserve it. Like no, I don't support him harassing her but he shouldn't be kind towards her either... he legit got taken advantage of, his feelings got trampled on, she cheated on her husband with him, blamed Jhim, hit him, punished him and banished him to die.
She deffo deserved losing that leg of hers.
Let's be honest. If the roles were reversed, we'd all be cursing if the FL was caring about the ML.
Just no. Stay strong and strict and cold dear ML. You deserve the world, you poor one.
So cute.
I love their progress.
I love how she used her situation to her advantage, even if she needs to be treated like that, she's ready for it and faces it.
Love the princess.
Love the young Duke. Doesn't complain regarding his situation and he's adapting well without removing his anger or resentment on her.
