I loved this novel.I like such melancholic tragic-style novels but the problem is to achieve that result, writers make characters dumb which takes away the joy of reading. I hate when tragedy strikes due to the utter incompetence of the MCs /MLs, when they don't put in any effort.Compared to that here we have an MC proactive but within her character limit. She expresses her feelings and doesn't hold back, which is refreshing compared to the recluse-anti-social characters.The only thing I hope is that the writer won't make ML's redemption easy. At this point, I can't see how he can make up for what he did.That's another thing I hate in these novels, where they set up the ML to do such messy things but take an easy way out with the redemption. They are forgiven, well because they are the ML? I would be satisfied even if they live estranged forever as long as the Duke realises his wrongdoings. If that's not possible I hope he grovels at her feet for years because I can't see how her trauma will be healed easily with a sob story.
