When the story started i thought tha the stepmother would just be a good mother to Cinderella since she was the protagonist of the story+ her(the stepmother) just trying to save her ass only. But then i stump into this MASTERPIECE where the stepmother doesn't care who is the prettiest to treat her the best, but a woman, who is now a single mother of three daughters, where she doesn't have the help of nobody else but herself, who lives in a period of time when not having a men in the house is considered the wort thing that could happen to a woman. But this QUEEN doesn't need of a man to support her. She takes care of all her daughters equally and without biases. She prioritizes her daughters' happiness over hers. She lets them know that they are more than just physical appearances, and that they are loved regardless of anything. She's doing a pretty good damn job for someone who became a mother out of nowhere. It's truly beautiful. ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ノ~
At some point I really really wanted to see tia becoming the hard of house Monique but after I have spoiled I have come to the realization that it’s better for everyone if tia becalmed the empress. I MEAN JUST THINK ABOU IT. What if that b* became empress and tries to HARM TIA!! . Tia as the head of house Monique( A LOYAL HOISE THAT CANT GO AGAINST ROYALS!) will have to obey her orders without question them. I don’t want that to happen to tia. That would be really messed up. I don’t want tia to have to follow orders from her like she had to in her past life.
So, throughout the story I have been wondering one thing and it is killing me to know why. That question is why did Ruve hate Tia so much. And know I have a theory. I reread the story 3 times now and there’s a part that caught my attention. At the beginning ruve always referred tia as heartless cold woman that did not had feelings, but I didn’t felt that way so I thought that tia must have done something that hurt ruve and therefore have that opinion of her. And the story foreshadows that tia doesn’t remember what she said about her mother in one of the first banquet. I think she said(and this is just my opinion) that because she didn’t remember her mother, she did not care or didn’t feel bad about losing her. We all know that ruve holds madam Monique as a very special person( because she cared of him like a mother). I mean it’s not tia’s fault that she didn’t remember her mother but it would explain why in this life he cares more about her. Because tia resembles her late mother and tia learned more about her more and feels more connections with her and doesn’t act like she doesn’t care about it. I haven’t read the novel so what I just said can be complete wrong but something tells me it is not.
If you want to know what she said about her mother...
It was basically "I don't really feel the loss because I have no memory of her". And he hated her way before that. Dont you see the way he was at the beggiing of teh secod timeline? He also humiliated her during their first dance during the first timeline, when she was still a child.
She is not from that world. She is not related to him by blood and you may think that they " well but their parents were were married " for siblings that are not related by blood to be considered "siblings" they have to have an EMOTIONAL connection, which they dont, because they literally met once( not sure) they are strangers to each other. Thought im not hoping for the story to take that turn, honestly it wouldn't surprise me. So i would love for you all to shill in the comments. Of you are the kind of person that gets offended or dislikes those types of plots( the ones that seem to be going towards" incest") you should problably stop reading when you feel that it makes you uncomfortable. It will save you some peace in mind.
Exactly, and who said they r blood related? I swear I read TAS who died w the parents r the ones that is half blood related. The ml has no wutsoever blood connection w her since he's born from the previous Duchess .
Yea, and they never got the time to build a sibling realitionship although the author could only be using it to vary from the typical cliché story, cant blame them for that kind of move.
