I just reread the whole thing because it’s been a while, but I’m still confused. I just can’t seem to remember or find the chapter that explains why they broke up??
It's in the very first chapter towards the end (it's broken into two parts on this website). Ritsu misunderstood Takano's laugh when he asked him if he loved him to mean that he was just toying with him and his feelings the whole time they were together as teenagers. It was just a nervous laugh but Ritsu ran off before that could be explained to him.
Oh my god I can’t believe I missed that, thank you
I’m up to chapter 21, is that black haired dude fl’s dad or something? Are the bastards not her actual parents???
SPOILER : Probably but it's not really said so can't be sure ( her parents aren't her real parents the king asked them to take care of her). Maybe she is the duke daughter.
**spoiler**
She definitely is the duke’s daughters. The king entrusted the shitty parents with her. The king is also behind the dukes missing wife and daughter. Her eye colour and the duchess’s eye colour is the same. There is a bit of conflict as to why the king doesn’t know about pink or red eyes. But he was withholding an artifact that could help the duke find his daughter but only gave it up just when the ‘daughter with pink eyes’ showed up (that was sent by the emperor himself). So it’s possible the artifact itself is tempered with. That also shows his hand in this matter and the fact that he used a spell that could kill the shitty dad if he ever utters the truth shows it’s regarding someone that could even threaten the emperor’s position.
I'm guessing the shade of eye is different in public or something. The Duke said no one knew, but idk how no one knows aside from it possibly coming from magic usage
It’s either that or the duke himself used a powerful spell to distort memory of the people who met her into believing her eyes were pink just to ensure there are no fakes or that the baby never actually had her mother eyes. Going by the last 2 chapters it’s also possible that the fl has her grandmothers eyes. The head maid’s reaction and the fact that the grandmothers face was shown is a testament to that.
Anything interesting happen in the last 30 or so chapters or should I keep waiting to catch up?
It's getting wild just wait for more
We still don’t know who the ML is. So.. wait a bit more
It's really interesting, u gotta keeep uppp
naahhhh we know who it is
The novel readers already know who the ML is.
Yes but we obviously didn’t read it.. i like my novels a lil spicy so I wouldn’t be reading it.
Based on the manga right? Not cus of the novel
Cause of the novel, a while ago someone posted a spoiler
Yep so we don’t know it yet based on the manga
I legit hoped the mother would, well, wake up but it looks like it’s too late at this point. I think even if Serena “gains feelings” at this point, and the mother realises what she’s done, Serena’s new understanding of “feeling” would keep her from forgiving her mother (at least I hope so, because bitch doesn’t deserve it).
I also can’t get over the fact that she just adopted a commoner without consulting her husband either and basically replaced her own child with her. Like wouldn’t she need a signature from her husband or something?? Especially considering that they’re a ducal household?
I actually want to think she's mentally ill. I couldn't really fathom the fact that she REPLACE her and even dared question if Serena is her daughter.
Like HOW? maybe she thought she's a changeling or something but WTF?
I don't know how she ends up being a hostess of a ducal household. Can she even think properly?
The guy is so unlucky with his wife imo. You know, if he ended up cheating with another woman, as long as she's more wise that his wife, I'll allow it. If only I can, I, myself, will introduce this man to a better wife material.
Maybe her being mentally ill could explain how she behaves in the beginning; when her daughter is nearly killed by a massive dog, defends herself and her response is oh well how could you hurt the poor doggy you should have dodged him. And then the other girl shows up and instead of comforting her own child, who just went through a traumatic event (as far as the mother was aware), and she just ditches her to comfort the new child (how did she get there anyway, you’d thing a ducal household is fenced in or something). Mother really is messed up in this story.
I do feel very sorry for the husband as well tho. He really does need someone else.
Right. Normally, a mother will ask her daughter first if she's fine. Second, that girl with a dog wandering inside their state should be question and even ended up in jail for trespassing and suspects her of assasination since her dog attack people. Though, I might be concern with the dog too but not the suspicious stranger coming suddenly.
I hope she doesn’t realize anything till it blows up in her face that her beloved adopted daughter was way more twisted than her actual daughter ever was and see her bio daughter happy with someone elsewas she lives with the regret of letting her bio daughter go ヾ(☆▽☆) but I feel like there’s still gonna be pain ahead like when the bullying is revealed the mother might not believe
That's possible and she will blame Serena instead. If that happens idk anymore smh.
Very very behind. Has the empress been punished yet?
not really, but cherie's dad does know that she's up to something so he's restricting her a bit
In case anyone looking for it, here’s the version with 12 chapters

You're the best!
Thank you
Thank you!!!
I’m finding it really funny that she treats a random stranger who looks like her dead child better than she treats a child she raised alongside her own kid, who also loved her kid, and who has a personality very similar to said dead child. And yes we can argue that because mc left she didn’t have anyone, but cmon. She could have easily found mc if she actually cared enough. She’s just choosing the easier option here by adopting someone meek and mild and willing to be adopted rather than atoning for her mistakes.
Said everything perfectly
Whoever did this, I just want you to know. Fuck you.
I highly second this.
That person can go deep-throat a cactus.
