HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED. this was super annoying to read bc of how passive fl is

fl is js stupid and plain dumb like she makes no attempt to clear her horrible reputation and KEEPS INSISTING ON HELPING THE EXACT PEOPLE WHO DISCRIMINATES HER (and they dont change)

like just divorce him already!! And get some revenge!! fl stays the same and does absolutely nothing but help people who dont appreciate her efforts. why tf does she bother to help people who fkning detest and distrust her?? even after she helps them..

and the her servants are fkng broken records, the only thing they can say is ' OmG mY LaDy iS a GeNIuS' when she isnt. they praise her over anything and everything, she cld be breathing and they wld be praising it wtf. like she needs to stop her kind act immediately its getting so annoying that its a must to drop this

pls do not waste time reading this, the only gd thing abt it is the art that is js so-so

its very rushed in the beginning, and i do find it annoying that she doesn't try to fix her horrible reputation but you have to understand that no matter what she says, they won't believe her because they don't care about her opinion, they don't care about who she actually is and they won't know unless they see it for themselves like that carriage guy. no matter how hard she tries the ML and the other servants will think poorly of her but in the end, she finds a way to use that arrogance to her advantage.

Rushed.  That’s the word I’d use.  In the first chapter alone, it runs through the main character’s ‘tragic backstory’ without even taking a break to breathe or explain anything- like why she didn’t even dispute a single rumor that proceeded to destroy the rest of her life based off of one single incident… rushed through her teenage years, spoke briefly of her family back home (like in two panels) talked about her torment said ‘btw now I’m getting married’ and then had the marriage and rushed her to the new house like.  Wow.  That’s the first chapter.  As the second chapter was the main characters immediate further mistreatment and abuse, and more rushing scenes crammed into each other, I had to drop it there.  So yes, this is a review on two chapters, but this stood out to me as so poorly executed I had to review it anyway.

I've read up to ch 12, and while the beginning is hard to get through due to how the Mc is treated.  She's an interesting character and takes charge.

It's worth a read
