It's about two people who can't communicate, one of whom is kinda abusive. Then some other characters are introduced and it doesn't get better.
Also the art for the faces is kinda bad, by manhwa standards.
also, idk why these series throw in minor magic out of nowhere when it's not plot relevant at all and doens't make anything better..

If you like stories driven by the inability of the main characters to communicate and have an honest conversation, then maybe you’ll like this.
I gave up.

The story would have been better with a time skip and a small amount of backflashes to prepare the setting. In the beginning chapters, we see the female leads whole self worth and being be projected on the prince. Why would I want to read that?! This lead has no independence, no skill sets, no friends, and no aspirations except love for over 4 chapters.
Now if we started with scenes of the lead diabolically or calming plotting her own gains or revenge, wouldn't that be interesting. Then some short s on reasons & highlighting traumas or ingrained responses. Same story, just not as slow or aggravating for the reader.
Now seriously ... why should almost every female MC have Stockholm Syndrome? They run into them wherever they can, but they cling to their love. Or they go back in time to take revenge on yandere fiancé and choose a tsundere guy. why not once be a strong independent woman who doesn’t bargain? For example: She goes back in time, takes revenge, strengthens her noble house, takes over her father’s title, and ML begs her to be her husband in the end.
That's why I loved "Beware of the Villainess!" manhwa. And in manga/LN I like the "Accomplishments of the Duke's Daughter".
