The romance in this story is better developed than Malicious Empress. MC and ML are just acquaintances, then allies, friends and finally lover. ML is not developing some strange 'appearing all the time wherever MC is and just being a brat' disease. He'll stay silent, until MC asks him for help.Yeah, this one is not as ruthless as the other novel. But after she finsihes her revenge, I'm tired of reading another conflict. Basically, we see how she deals with her body enemy that wants to kill her (her stepmother, and the other daughters). After this, we'll read she extract her revenge onto her previous life husband, his family, his lover. Then finally, the last conflict is of course the ML that involves the kingdom.I cried a river for her father, and her brother. Though, it was frustratingly annoying how the author created filler plot for the brother's future wife. I mean, it's totally unnecessary to create a healer/poisoiner with her own big secret plot and matching her with mc's brother. It's a three in one novel. So tired. Not reading this again.
