Like usually the person I feel the worst for is the second male lead who would be the crown prince in this case. His wife who doesn’t really love his is the main cause of his problems. His best friend, who he found out his actions lead to his attempts, treats him like an annoyance. Said “best friend”’s wife hates him but due to her powers he has to keep her around which she uses to her advantage to make his life worse sometimes via blackmail. His father seems to prefer his best friend over him. He is slowly losing power and his mind with no one truly on his side.
I truly feel for him because even at the end the person on his side is under the duchess like someone please save him. Like how Hes came to save cael. He needs someone to come save him but a happy end isn’t in sight for him (at least one I don’t think is happy)
