"His arrogance is his most prominent trait. Nevertheless, he cannot stand up and defend his love. A man who is pushed back by each setback someone puts in his way," she squared her shoulders, meeting his gaze head-on. "A man who can't even propose a marriage properly... I shall never be with such a man."

On the one hand, BOOM.On the other hand, it's not like he's making it easy for her. He pulls her close and then says, "Nah, can't happen."
"Larissa de Lanark is one of the bravest women I have ever met," Egon's words resonated with conviction as if he could read her mind. "She was faced with a choice between her family and the man she loves, and she chose him... Is that so horrible? Or is it simply something you can't relate to because it's something you can never do?"

"Claude... How can I reach you..." she mumbled to herself.

To give answers? Or just more vague responses that don't actually help?
"I came here to talk to you," he responded calmly.

"…You!" Grace stood up and closed the distance between them, disappointment evident on her face. "You are now the only daughter I have. When Larissa talks to you, tell her she no longer has a mother. Do you hear me?" She burst into tears, opened the door, and ran up the stairs.

Does she not understand that he's in love with her? And he has to grapple with that? I don't like how she almost keeps using him and ignoring what he's struggling with. It's a lot more than just being adopted.
His unwavering support and his willingness to put everything aside for her touched her deeply. Adela vowed to be the best sister to Arkin, a small seed of hope planted within her heart. Perhaps, in time, he would come to accept that Grace de Lanark was his mother, especially now that no boundaries existed between Adela and him.

Aaaand I'm convinced it's his son.
"Why did you do that for?" Arkin exclaimed, flabbergasted. "Are you out of your fuc*ing mind?"

"I would have offered her a change of clothes," Olga's gaze briefly shifted to Adela's chest as she smirked, "But it seems our sizes are quite different."

"Sir Arkin, the dry clothes should be ready by now... You too, Bastian," Leopold looked at Olga next, silently implying that she should offer a set of her own dry clothes to Adela since there were no ladies' clothes in the manor.

So I'm guessing some secrets are out - is Arkin actually Leopold's son? Did the biological child of the Baron/Baroness die and they raised the child of the Duchess instead? And the Baron and Leopold have found out?
As Leopold's gaze shifted towards Arkin, Adela noticed a transformation in his expression. The softness vanished, replaced by a sense of pride.

Seriously, Bastian?
"Uncle and Adela are already here," Bastian said, his eyes holding an unfathomable expression as he looked at her. "I will go wake up my brother... and Olga,"

"Move in with you?" I repeat, mouth dropping open. I definitely did not see that coming at all. Not even close.

Please just call your sister.
The determination to start figuring things out myself gradually makes the nausea lessen, and a short-term plan forms. It's a hasty plan, I admit. It's probably pretty stupid. But I'm a grown woman, and I'm going to go out and prove it.

And now you probably smell like her perfume.
"You too." And then she turns to leave. Just before she opens the door, she adds: "I met the new girl. She's cute."

When she pulls away, it's the Grace I remember—not the strangely demanding and needy one that showed up here this week. She has a soft, genuine smile that isn't expecting anything in return.

"Of course it does," she says, shrugging and batting her eyelashes. "What did you expect?"

"For a man to desire a wife who can turn his life into hell, Prince Arlan, you are certainly the first," Cian smirked. "Be careful what you wish for. It might come true."
