Is it just me? I just read up till the part where she figures she can turn back time however she wants and I was like why would she get so lucky? What did she even do to deserve it? And honestly the whole thing was too awkward for me to read. A grown woman turns back time, gets into her younger self’s body and starts bullying a child. I don’t even know why she wants to take revenge? For her own stupidity? I mean yes the sister did tell her to do this and that which led her to death but honestly she should have had some common sense. Also, it’s true that the sister turns out evil or what not later but this does not justify bullying her as a child who had just lost her mother and her father brought a total stranger home. Besides, if her mother was so unhappy in the count’s house why wouldn’t she just leave? Even after seeing how stupid her daughter was acting? I have no problem with a political and smart fl who can do some questionable deeds to get what she wants but the thing about this was that the story doesn’t own up to it at all! You can’t just first say people are villains and be mean to then while they are children and literally hasn’t done anything wrong yet, torment them and then later give them reasons to be hated! It’s like the fl caused the sister to turn into a villain and not in a “oh she showed her true color” way but in a “let’s bully a child who in a past life persuaded me to do bad things and I was stupid enough to do them and turn her into a psychopath!”. This just does not sit well with me. The thing that makes this genre is how the mc grows and stops making the mistakes of her past. THIS LADY DOES NOT GROW AT ALL! She is not smarter or a cool strategist or anything! She just gets lucky! And she doesn’t even deserve that luck! I mean this whole thing got me frustrated and I wanted to see if anyone thinks like me.
