It feels like Alice's entire character revolves around being a shy, wronged woman.
I honestly would have preferred if she was somewhat of a villain. Why are these villainess stories so rarely about someone who is actually a villain, and always about someone framed as one? It just seems so contrived now that the heroine is usually a villain while the 'villainess' is just someone who is framed by the heroine.

It says something that the 'heroine' in this story is a somewhat good girl, or at least on the MC's side, rather than a massive POS, and that somehow makes it refreshing.

Is it just me or do all characters seem the same? The author has been introducing new characters constantly but I can't tell any of them apart. I'm basically only reading at this point because the art is cute, but these characters are as dry as cardboard...

Because most of these stories have the "Villainess" be either the main character, or the main character's love interest/best friend, so having them be an asshole makes them less likeable. Having them be the victim of framing makes the villainess look better in the eyes of the reader, makes the antagonist more hateable, and makes whoever the MC is look better

His mom is pretty and his dad is handsome. It runs in the family.

And Alice is cute as usual.
