I got curious so checked out the scanlator website and honestly 4 chapters so far I'm really annoyed with the male lead, which I'm sure is the author's intention but still
ML is being a typical uncaring, insensitive, and therefore really annoying fiancé. Expect everything from his fiancée, her understanding, her attention, her love and all that, yet give nothing back. Now he's obviously panicking and with how stories like this go, he'll learn and they'll be happily every after. But the journey will make you annoyed for sure.

From what I can tell, the original group scanlating either violated a rule while uploading onto Mangadex or are a previously banned group that revived under a different name. Either way, glad that nabeel went ahead and created a new version, and they did awesome!

Also, original scans group are charging a lot to see the latest scanned chapters on their website. lol they have so much smut on there now.

interesting premise but might be a tough one to read in pieces - shelving it for now. i don't really see a path to her falling back in love, but assuming she will, i can only hope he really works for it

Impossible.... People actually have... BRAINS???
I'm genuinely shocked the author gave the people in this manga common sense, most don't.

Also side note, I HATE THIS GUY, he SUCKS, I hope he doesn't win her over, that'd be way more satisfactory than ANY romcom.

Its going downhill pretty fast. Wouldn't be surprised if she does leave him in the end.

story about cliche male lead that treats female lead like shit but "secretly loves her" but the twist is that the female lead in this one actually has a spine and doesn't just fall to pretty-boy-trope. its pretty good, if you can get past how annoying the male lead is

A pretty good adaptation of a web novel. A little misandrist in places, and it doesn't seem to make up its mind as to what it actually wants to do with the premise by the time the manga reaches the end of the novel. If the novel ends in the same way, it seems like kind of a pointless story since it just...stops? There's not really a conclusion aside from a reiteration of the FL's thoughts in the first chapter. Aside from that, the biggest issue is that the author succeeds in redeeming and justifying the ML, but because the story cuts off so abruptly, the FL doesn't get any such treatment. Ultimately the story ends with a kind of lopsided stumble as the FL ends up feeling far more one-note and shallow than the ML was initially presented as. Quite odd!

A shame the original author never kept it up, I'd be pretty interested to see where it goes. On the other hand, it showed a couple red flags that it might turn into a boring "I used the rennaissance as a setting to remind people that women didn't have a vote before" kind of blathering, so perhaps ending where it did is for the best.

The story continues as a sort of manga-only extrapolation but so far it seems to just be treading water. I intend to keep an eye on it and see if it picks up.
