Just read chapter 4.3 which totally ruined this for me, Had this on my to-read list for quote a while and to be honest I kinda wish I just forgot about it.
I skipped to this chapter after reading 4.3 just see something and yeah the personality of the female lead is a full 180, and threating him with more rape -_- so i can only imagine what chapters 5 to 32 are like...
All I can say is the Guild leader did the MC dirty saying that he can vouch for her. and then Inn keeper from chapter 4 where the MC was staying is just as guilty as the female lead as it clear she was in on it with the female lead.
the author really dropped the ball on this was as it seemed to be good and had promise up until 4.3, I mean the whole date rape was pointless the MC already said she was attractive and would have probably fallen for her over time.
Not going to read more, but tbh I even doubt her whole "ran away from home" story because, she stated she ran because they wanted her to married a bad person.
but in the very same chapter she proves she is the same type of person XD. if you ask me that arraigned marriage sounds like the person match for her. and if that person was violent to her with what we know of her are we supposed to feel bad for her?
and in before people say, I would still drop this if the MC was the one that spiked her drink and forced her into bed.
Just noticed this is HIATUS now and I can say I'm really not shocked tbh.
