I cant hate her father that much. From every chapter youll see how much he cares for his daughter in his own way.
Calm...geez....i know the outcome of what he did and it is unforgivable. However, considering what happen to his wife, his daughter's engagement, his son leaving with no one to inherit the dukedom and his anxiety for seemingly being targeted by the royal family hes family is in verge of ruins. As pride man like him its understandable he'll do necessary measures for his family or maybe hes just pure evil selling his daughter off just like what iaos and his assistant said, "tool". Or maybe if you read it twice, youll get to see why he has to be controlling since fl was a child and being a lunatic. Fl cant leave his father either. He only have his daughter left. Yet id say again what he did to nanny is unforgivable and all the shit. But i cant hate his character that much. I love to speculate every pov of every character even in light novels thats what makes reading fun for me.
Umm... Of course it's not shown in the story, after all we're not seeing this from his pov. It's just fun to try and guess what he's thinking though, you may be right and he may be just thinking about using her but he may also be thinking of her in his own way but we don't know that. I think that's what Nerri was trying to express, that they like speculating on different pov of one character. After all before all those villainesses Mangas and novels became popular most people didn't like those mean girls but now that they have their own story and we see their point of view it's different right? ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~
"but he may also be thinking of her in his own way"
Thing is; the Narrative hasn't once supported this idea or given any credence to it. so we should just judge him by the things he's done so far, which is basically just using his daughter for his own political motivations ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ even psyche see's medeas father for the scheming weasel he is. what did he do to deserve being given the benefit of the doubt all of a sudden?
So handsomeeee.
