Surely this "publicly annul the royal engagement in front of a grand staircase" couldn't be that prevalent in every single one of these supposed video game that these manga all lift from?
How many gal games can you make out of this same premise and still sell?
This is not at all what she was going for when she told the Goddess that she wanted to reincarnate as the 'dark mistress of a love dungeon,' but clearing up the misunderstanding would have been very, very awkward.
I was about to say that duke's daughters have been taming their evil dads for some time now, but what you said is actually pretty specific. A criminal family huh...
I think only the Vellatoux family from "playing the adopted daughter too well" is actually straight up committing murders etc cuz it's just what they do. lol
The only crime she pointed out are having secret funds and taking over the academy, which are 2 things that overly obsessed parent might do to protect their child when they see that their royal fiance is trying to replace them (plan a-getting rid of the competitor, plan b- having the daughter run away with the money).
It's not a strong argument, but it could show that they might have always loved their daughter and with her hidding/ not caring about the prince, they choose to indulge her that way instead.
