You're not even sharing a spoiler. You're just sharing your opinion of something fake. Yeah, he say he loves her bc he does love her. He had loved her in ALL 4 lifetimes. Now that is spoiler. He was married to her in 1 where they were each other's 1st and only. The prince stole her in 2nd and he still loved her. Painter got her in 3rd and he STILL loved her too. In 4th, she brainwashed him after he loved her and then he fall for her again after they marry so yeah, he STILL loves her. Now this is spoiler.

For the last time, she NEVER brainwashed him. She just let things happen. She NEVER manipulated him into doing ANYTHING. She just created situations which as we have already seen, IF Carcel wants he can avoid it or put a stop to it. So, him being a manwh0re before had nothing to do w Carcel.

Ines*

wait what is that first life? they were together before?

Did you read the novel?

Spoilers ahead.









Yes. Carcel is the husband she belonged with all along. They just don’t remember their first life together yet.

She did manipulate him and the manhwa just chose not to show it so ppl like you can simp for her and excuse her. She been telling him since he young that it normal for him to be like that. Hear it enough and he'll think it's fine and normal.

She the one who think he's naturally a playboy just bc she misunderstood him in the past life so she kept telling him that like that's totally fine for him to be like that. Even that dinner when she was talking to her dad she was all like it's good to share him. When she was talking to Carcel, she even say things like it's good to leave him like that and he even ask if she's brainwashing him. "A flower withers when plucked, doesn’t it? So leave it where it belongs, and I’ll leave you as you are." Ines was wrong about him bc she'll realize that he was not a playboy in the previous life. Everything she kept thinking was wrong. Her unreliable narrative make all readers like you brainwashed into what she thinks.

Yeah. He was her rl husband from their 1st life where they were married and each other's first so he was nvr naturally a playboy and she thought he was bc she misunderstood him in their 2nd life. She don't remember the 1st life yet. They were meant to be together and their fate was broken so that's why the novel is called The Broken Ring bc their marriage ring fate was broken. If Carcel was naturally a playboy he wouldn't even have loyally been in love with her all lifetimes. This person don't know anything and just hating.

@snapplecider, excellent point! Inés has the majority of these readers brainwashed. Well, manhwa did cut out her flaws and terrible actions to make her more likable so only discerning readers would see she’s wrong when she’s wrong. All the rest thinks her trauma justifies her behavior to Carcel or they’re just making up a whole lot of assumptions about her.

“Rather than that, I just want you to be free.”

“…….”

“You were swung by me. Having an engagement you never wanted because of me, becoming the successor to the duke at a very young age because of me, having to be the escort of a fiancée who was too much and unwelcoming, no, you’ve already spent nearly 20 years escorting, and you took off to the navy with your precious body with thoughts of being married for a lifetime to a not so beautiful, unfriendly, boring fiancée that is like a nun in a chapel. You’re just thinking of living that way a little later.”

“…….”

“So, I’ll compensate you for your losses. I don’t want to spoil even a bit of this handsome face at all.”

The cheeky light taps on the cheek like the old days.

Nevertheless, it was still a face that was as virtuous as ever. The face of an innocent fiancée who would give up all her pride and face solely for the sake of her fiancé’s convenience…….

Concession, meekness… the one person who coped with his fucking character?

Words could not be everything. Cárcel was convinced that that wasn’t all. Even though he didn’t even ask, it was suspicious as it is with her talking for such a long time with that annoying personality.

An ulterior motive. Obviously, there was some intention.

Cárcel narrowed his eyes and leaned forward, drawing closer to her face. Inés continued to speak without batting an eyelash.

“Your childhood was tied to our marriage, but everything will be different after we get married.”

They were only about two hand spans of distance away, then one and a half span.

“You’ll be freer than before marriage.”

The way Ines talks to Carcel in the novel is very manipulative and she been doing that since forever. If ppl think she didn't brainwash him then they better watch some videos on how cults brainwash ppl.

“So, I’ll compensate you for your losses. I don’t want to spoil even a bit of this handsome face at all.”

“Actually, it’s a waste of resources to keep that face for my own. I’ll be dumping a gold mine that shows up, and not collecting salt from the sea.”

“Since I’m proud of Lord Escalante, I won’t let him go to spoils.”

“In that meantime, don’t leave out your handsome face. How would I have lived if you weren’t handsome? Yes?”

“A flower withers when plucked, doesn’t it? So leave it where it belongs, and I’ll leave you as you are.” (in the manhwa)

“You just have to keep looking like this. With a very handsome face. Eyes, nose, mouth, everything stays the same.”

“As a matter of fact, Cárcel. For a handsome man like you, it is very easy to live like a dog. And it’s not your fault. The world made you like that....”

She say it so much that he thinks he's a "manwh0re" before he even became one.

Human memories were inherently cunning. They sometimes do
anything for their owners. 'I'm a rag by nature. It was true that he felt
comfortable thinking he was a rag before he even became a rag. What
does a fiancée who's not even interested in me have to do with
anything?
