This is horrible. Although, it's debatable wether chapter 5 was too early for a review, but see my reasoning.

It is so rushed. It doesn't end scenes or even conversations before starting another one. What I mean is, you don't get or understand the result of the conversations, what they implicate and what's the natural course of action would be, because you fail to grasp the very essence of what the characters are talking about, for the reasons below.

Characters aren't even introduced. You don't even know who FL is talking to and trying to rein in into her scheme.

AND you don't even know her scheme! Or what her goal is. Or just basically, what she wants. I still don't know anything about what's actually going on. First she wanted to leave but then actually just finds all kinds of random excuses not to.

I would have kept reading, if it was only that. In hopes, that things get clearer and thus better, but then another thing popped up:

After only 5 chapters I have a strong feeling that this is just one of those "misunderstanding" stories. Where everything from the beginning was just a misunderstanding. The prince didn't actually want to annule the engagement and actually deeply loves her blablabla and he just couldn't converse it blablubblub ... I have a strong feeling, she and that guy who dumped her, will get back together. And that is completely unacceptable to me.

For a man to annule his engagement one-sidedly in that kind of misogynistic society .. Boy, you can forget about being ML.  You've already lost all of your integrity as a respectable human being. A selfrightous bastard and nothing more.

And for the FL to still keep staying in the palace, even finding excuses ... does she want him back? I don't really think so .. She also doesn't really sound concerned about him or the country or anything. Basically, the way I got to know her in the first 5 chapters, she should just turn around and leave. She would be sad and very disappointed, sure, but she would leave and won't look back.

She shouldn't have anything that keeps her in the palace, excepts for authors disgusting and twisted view on romance, that is.

Not to mention that, at the end of chapter 5 the yandere priest ML was introduced. THE most disgusting and most unfit type of character for romance. The prince ML is a diamond in a pile of horse-shit compared to the priest ML. But it's still horse shit and not really digestable and also not nice to look at. So, for the MLs, we're left with horse-shit and a thing I can't even describe without getting offensive.

Absolutely unfit for romance and story-wise it's so unoriginal and boring to implement tension using those wastes of human beings. They're way too predictable, even if authors try to make them misterious. Boooring
