@Middnightsun no worries at all, please feel free to let it all out. In fact, I completely agree with you so it was refreshing to read your comment & knowing I wasn't the only one who though Ibe was an airhead lalaing around. What you said is SO TRUE. She is supposed to stop him from falling for Eleanora. Wasn't that supposed to be her objective actually?????? what was the point of taking care of him as a kid if that wasn't the goal??? The curse
ANYWAY gets undone thanks to Ele according to the original novel. If her goal was the save Ale, her goal should have been to stop him from falling for her because SHE is the reason he dies. Undoing his curse herself changes nothing if she still leaves so that he can fall for Elenora. I can't even comprehend how absolutely dumb she is.
Also as you said in another comment, I agree, Diego is such a LAME 2nd lead/ML or whatever. He is so callous, & has absolutely NO redeeming points. I dont even get why Elenora falls for someone like him. If in the original novel, Ale & Ele actually end up together & live happily, I can understand Ibe wanting to keep her distance. What she is doing now is so nonsensical. And it will be even worse if she starts pitying Diego & ends up in a similar situation to Ele from the novel.
