so this from Richards (ml) povstarts off with " Diana was a woman I didn't like from the start to finish"he originally wanted the duke's real daughter (Diana's step-sister) so ml can have more assets to his earldom I think or he originally wanted the duke position (not exactly sure but to do with power)the duke used Diana so he doesn't have to give ml anything cause she isn't his real daughterml expected mc to be embarrassed by the situation but instead, he was met with her mysterious appearance (vibe) as if she was hiding somethinghe didn't like that her eyes looked at him as if she knew everything about himwhen they have dinner together he found the conversation they have had was pleasantthis was because he doesn't have many companions who he talked comfortably after only meeting twice (he has big trust issues)he still regarded her as something unnecessary he had boughthe told her they wouldn't spend their night together but obviously, girl said "don't worry. until i died i'll never love you"his pride was hurt by that, as he didn't like that she didn't act as if she's been sold off by her familyand he had the nerve to think if she was attractive enough say that (though i could be wrong with this mtl but this what google translate says)____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dianas povDiana was bored after a weekshe has learned all the servant's faces and names even though she struggles from time to timeshe goes to mls office a lot just service her boredomso when she went this time she blatantly tells him "I'm bored" while eating madeleines when he asks why she was herehe was surprised by her blunt answer leaving him dumbfoundedhe resumes his work, which seems to be a lot of work because Diana starts to think he is a workaholiche asks him why he doesn't take a break to which he replies that he has too much stuffshe tells him that he is addicted to working which he says he has to send reports to the imperial family so they can pay taxesshe then tells "oh the half-year settlement" which surprises him because he didn't expect her to know stuff like that (diana was an office worker before)then Diana was like do u have to do the work yourself and he said yesthis is because in the novel ml's parents died when he was young so the financial stuff was handled by his servants and external family which they ultimately betrayed himshe was about to leave but then he asks "why it'll only take a year" (about her loving him or something refer to ch 3)he then goes on if she thinks he will divorce hershe was relived cause he hasn't found about her illnessshe replies "will u not?"he says he spent a lot of money on her so it would be so she shouldn't be thinking about divorcethen she asks if they will divorce if someone he likes shows up (a reference to the heroine)he says he is not that stupid to be blinded by loveshe says he might give his life for his lovewhich he chose not to believe he is capable of something that dumbTheeee end!
