Spoiler: Careful: novel spoiler in the novel, at a certain point Cael decides to not ask publicly to dethrone Diana (under Helios request). Hestia thinks Cael still love Diana and she is sour about this. She doesn’t talk to him for a day. She thinks about her old world while sitting on the balcon. Cael sees her and runs to her room thinking she wants to commit suicide. He barged in her room and drags her away from the there. He starts to cry silently while hugging her strongly. Hestia is shocked and Cael becomes a little depressed again and doesn’t leave her for a second. After a confrontation with Helios, Hestia feels better and Cael asks her to go to the north. They go there for 2 years and they cultivate their love (while she is not managing the land, they spend their time making love ). When they return to the capital, their love is sturdier than diamond
I notice this after I re-read the webnovel while listening the audio book. Spoiler: A little what I thought I think Hestia doesn't think Cael still like Diana, but she think "Cael can't escape from his destiny as a Second Male Lead who will helps The Female Lead until the end". Look at Hestia' POV between after Diana apologize and Cael tells her that he will help Diana, she already realizes that Cael only can see Hestia and won't look at any other woman, so she feels heavy because of it, thinking what will happen with Cael if she leaves this world (I think they already foreshadowing this in the new chapter of Webtoon, at the panel chibi Hestia is erased from chibi Cael's side). Look at her talk with Heli, Cael told Heli that Hestia thought Cael still loves Diana. Hestia replies if he was wrong. She is bitter because "it's not the ending" she wants.
i hope this time God will give her an answer. Looking at Cael's attitude in the manhwa, i don't think he will let Hestia draw a line between them
The manhwa hasn't got to that part yet. That comes after the trade ship sinking and Diana's fall from grace. We still have a bit to go before we get there.
Cael being 'mean' to Hestia Spoiler: Webtoon Ch 83 Spoiler Cael doesn't like it when Hestia said if they will never do anything 'like that'. So, even though Hestia fell asleep after they kissed, Cael tells Hestia to ask Uros to 'change the bedsheet' before leaving her room. In his POV, he wants Hestia to focus more on their relationship rather than about Heli and Diana, but he already knows that Hestia won't change her mind, so he will... Erinyes asks Hestia if she and Cael already did it (what she means is the dinner with the envoys), so Hestia almost splitting her tea. The noble women talk about Diana and The Temple. They will help Hestia to gather the evidence about the temple doesn't do their job properly. The scene is ended with Heli calls Hestia because he already knew about her plan. He tells her that he will do anything to protect Diana. If the manhwa reach that point, it means the ending is near.
I felt so bad for Helios when he said that. Like man's still willing to go far for Diana to protect her when she has done nothing good during their marriage. Omfg as much as I was squealing for the Cael x Hestia scene, I am bracing for the inevitable to come.
i feel bad for Cael hahahaah. At least she didn't deny the kiss part...good luck Cael. In my opinion, his brain was already making the plan that would lead to his "quarrel" and the balcon scene. He would let Hestia play with Helios and Diana and then he would reap the benefits: Hestia would achieve her goal and Cael would get his Wife's full attentions... he still doesn't know...
He still isn't fully aware of her true colours. If only he knew what she truly thought of him and how she's trying to seduce Cael back to her side...... At least Helios did actually seem to be truly sorry for what he did to Cael, but Diana is just... blech. I support Hes' revenge on her.
(I’m reading the manhwa.) Does the trade ship owned by Baron Potos sink? Also, Hestia mentioned that instead of repaying the nobles who had invested in the trading ships… he would run away at night?
Spoiler: spoiler about Baron potos in OG novel, the ship sank and the baron and his family run away at night. This time, Diana decides to invest a big sum and Helios "invite" the Potos family to the imperial castle as "guests" until the ship sink. Hestia told the prince about the sinking and the prince, "imprisoned" the baron to make them take the responsability (they will have to work for generations to repay the money, i think"
Spoiler: trade ship baron potos sank, straight into the deep ocean and meet fish. made many nobles run to the palace where the baron and his family were temporarily imprisoned to ask for compensation. ahhh my favorite chapter...
Not much different with novel, but Hestia looks more angry towards Heli in the webtoon. Spoiler: Webtoon Ch 84 Spoiler Heli asks Hestia to not attack the temple and tells her about the loophole in their agreement, so it becomes invalid. He offers Attica to her and Cael's rank up into Duke before the negotiation, as long as she agree with his new term above. Hestia leaves him with angry face, reminds him to address her as Duchess the next time they meet (in the novel and audio book, Hestia is helpless by her own mistake and Heli is the one who camly said that he will address her as duchess the next time they meet). Cael runs towards Hestia when she gets off from the carriage, asking what Heli said. Hestia tells him that she is tired and will tell him later. When Cael tries to catch Hestia, he notices her sad face. I hope they show us Cael's angry face because of what Heli did to Hestia.
it is! but i saw some complaints about the translation before so decided to just retranslate it for myself lol
I see. Yes, I did. I remember tl-ing side story 6 and the 'dream kiss' scene and posting it here in the forum somewhere xD Good luck! Looking forward to your tls
Finally! Dream kiss Spoiler: Webtoon Chapter 85 Spoiler Cael looks at Hestia's face then tells Uros to prepare to go to the palace. He shouldn't let Hestia went alone and wants to know what Heli said to make her almost crying. Hestia says if she isn't crying, but she mad. Hestia tells him what happened. When she thinks that she needs to look for other noble to take her place to make a complain about the temple, Cael offers himself. In his mind, if he can't stop her revenge, he will join with her. He tells Hestia to believe in him, kisses her hand, then hugs her. The scene moves to Hestia, thinking that night Cael kissed her, but she could feel the vivid feeling and he said about "dream". She is happy with it but she thinks if she needs to think about reality. The scene is ended by Uros reads the news about the departure of Baron's ship.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Those weeks of copiums were worth it
Now I can't wait for the next chapters when: Diana finds out the ship sank Helios finds out about Diana's deal with the church Diana and Helios' reaction when Cael takes over Hestia to accuse the church So much drama ahead! Number 3 should be especially delicious since Diana naively believed that Cael is still in love with her!
