I don't know how that wouldn't be an overwhelming red flag to him. It can't be normal for someone to have a perfume that overwhelms your mind and nearly makes you lose consciousness, and after a very poor display of etiquette where she went and touched his face like she's his lover.

Chapter 07

In the palace if your caught breaking and entering + other things to look like a criminal, you can avoid punishment if you just protest enough?


So ML was about to rape FL? Starting to feel like she shouldn't marry him for reasons completely unrelated to her past life.

It is literally a competition between two people. If one side is sabotaged, its pretty obvious who the main suspect would be. And wouldn't the king just call off the competition if one side was blatantly sabotaged, even if you don't identify a culprit?

So her only source on her fiance/husband cheating is a person who was actively murdering her? No moment of realization where she now realizes signs of it all along? Maybe the murderer who clearly wanted her to suffer by saying cruel things to her in her final moments might not be the most trustworthy source.

Well considering he spent half the year away from her... it is plausible for her to start doubting just by the words of discord sown by the murderer allegedly sent by her husband's mistress

Not a fan of a Yandere-Obesessive-Posessive ML. 🤮🤢 Why romanticize this s***?

Since you already told him that he will betray you in the future, why not just tell him all the details so that he can avoid that suspicious princess?

Can the king marry the princess off already?! She should take her political schemes and shove them where the sun don’t shine.

I understand why he wouldn't want FL to know that he'll be spending nights guarding the princess...but there's absolutely no way she won't find out. She works in the palace, she'll probably hear about him being the princess' bodyguard within a day. Then it will be clear he was lying to her, and it makes it even more like he's cheating on her.


And when is he going to work out that getting too close to the princess makes his brain fuzzy? You'd think it would be obvious the second time it happened.

Omo, this is just getting depressing. When does the princess die

.. well now we know that FL's doubt would appear legitimate to anyone. Also asking to quit her work when she likes it? REEEEEEED FLAG

So, princess probably had her killed to get with her husband. And chances are he wasn't cheating on her, she was only in the way?

>"A man - worse, a married one - into a princess's room this late...what is she thinking? The night guards will see this too..."
I think she's very obviously thinking she'll make a scandal (which may or may not involve drugging you), in a further attempt to destroy your marriage. And your enough of a dipshit to go along with it apparently.

Chapter 20

Unless he's already fully mind controlled, as soon as he's away from the Evil Princess, he should threaten to resign if he's being reassigned. Accepting the reassignment is a betrayal of both his wife and his political faction. I can only assume the king is being mind controlled too, because it is absolutely stupid to assign ML as a bodyguard for the Evil Princess given the everything in this story (he's a married man and the princess is weirdly obsessed with him which is even shown by her demand to have him assigned to her, he's sworn his allegiance to the prince and while they aren't known to be at odds they're still not allies, the prince and his wife have been facing assassination attempts so assigning his most loyal knight to someone else is outright appalling).

  1. I don't trust Nike. That she "shouldn't have applied" but still did makes me think she did so on someone's orders.
  2. How stupid would someone in the palace have to be to wonder why anyone would poison the prince, when there are constant struggles between the prince's faction and the evil queen's faction? The actual question should be "how do we finally make her face consequences?"
