Two sisters, both are being wed to old perverts because of their father's debt. They have blonde hair, which is unique in that era or place. ML is suspicious. He seems to want to kill fl's soon to be husband, for what reasons? We don't know. Actually, he's very mysterious and foxy. But that's what makes him interesting.
Oh gosh I'm invested in reading this new manhwa the artstyle is different and nice. Man! poor Lavielle and her sister Levi, hope they don't get used by those old disgusting perverts hope they have a painful death. So annoying to see them defenseless in such a situation with no one to help and protect them. Ml is very sus, initially he'll try to take advantage of Fl and might fall in love with her later, poor Lavielle might be devastated later upon learning the truth she's being used by Lucien too who knows but I feel something like that might happen tho I can be wrong. Priest guy nah too weak,so worried about the poor baby sis too both are in such a horrible predicament really feel bad for them tho!
Spoiler: ML's real identity ML is not the Marquess' son. The Marquess' real son is Niel(Lucian's stepbrother). Niel's mother had a relationship with the Marquess and got pregnant. But while pregnant, the Marquess kept feeding her certain medicines. Later on, he decided to abandon her and their child. His mother eventually remarried to ML's father. They were okay at first, although Niel's mother kept on hating the Marquess'. Lucian and Niel grew up like a real siblings, they were very close and admired each other. But then Niel started to get sick and slowly started to get paralyzed. When his mother saw what was happening to her child, she became depressed and kept on blaming herself and then committed suicide. Niel found out later on the reason why - it was because the Marquess used him for his experiment. And mother blamed herself for not being able to stop the Marquess into doing that. Niel became completely paralyzed and suffering. He was slowly being consumed by hatred and wanted revenge. At first, he sent someone to kill the Marquess but he wasn't satisfied with that. He didn't want the Marquess to die because dying means resting. He wanted the Marquess to suffer. He found out that the Marquess was in love with his wife, so he thought if his wife will die then Marquess will suffer. So, Lucian decided to take revenge for him. He pretended to be the Marquess' son so that he could kill the FL but he started to pity her and fell for her. And he knew that killing her will meant nothing to the Marquess since he is a narcissist who only loves himself Spoiler: Marquess ending Lucian killed the herbalist. And then he set up a plan to poison drugged the Marquess. So the Marquess became paralyzed. Lucian asked Rose to keep feeding the Marquess his medicine. Rose did so, she had an idea of what was happening but chose to ignore it. She hated the Marquess for what he did to FL. So Marquess was lying in bed for a long time. In his mind, he said he was in so much pain, he felt like his insides were burning but he couldn't even cry about it. He was praying to die instead of suffering like that. But Lucian didn't want him dead. He wanted to experiment on him to find a cure for Niel's condition When FL returned to the mansion and saw the Marquess condition. She was still scared of him - even though he was laying in bed, FL still feared him. But FL decided to end it all... so she went on and strangled the Marquess. The Marquess died but FL said it seems he was thankful to her while she was choking him. Spoiler FL and her sister reunited. FL'S sister was pregnant with the Duke/Priest child. So seeing that her sister is now in good hands, FL finally forgiven and accepted ML ML inherited the Marquess title and his properties. Honestly speaking, I wanted the ending where ML will experimented with Marquess body so that he will suffer for many many years. And was disappointed that FL killed him, it's just as Niel said - Killing him just ended his suffering quickly hence the Marquess was more thankful towards the FL for killing him. Although I understand, FL needs to kill him in order to move on. Kill him in order to erase the reason for her fear.
Could you please spoil what his inner turmoil was like when he began falling in love with her and also the details when the female lead find out he was planning on killing her? Is there a male lead regret arc and how bad is the angst if any lol
It's been a while so I am starting to forget this series lol. But IIRC She got upset when she found out the truth. She was hurt and scared, and so, she decided to leave. His only regret was not telling her the truth early on. And he busied himself for the revenge. FL only forgives him later on, when he showed her the Marquess' paralyzed body. I do not remember much if he had inner turmoil after falling for her (so I don't think he did) He was rational the entire time and had his priorities straight. And honestly speaking, the revelation just came in the later part of the novel, and the author kept his thoughts secret the entire time. So you only get his POV later on.
