### Summary
The latest chapter continues the flashback into Cirrus Baek's childhood, focusing on his first interaction with a stepmother following his own mother's death. Seeking a maternal figure, a young Cirrus attempts to connect by calling her "mom," but is coldly rejected and instructed to call her "ma'am" instead. Reader commentary overwhelmingly identifies this moment of emotional abandonment as a key part of Cirrus's "villain origin story," explaining his present-day manipulative and affection-starved personality. The audience heavily condemns the stepmother for entering a relationship with a father but refusing any maternal role, as well as the father for outsourcing his parental responsibilities instead of providing genuine support or therapy. Many readers found the scenario painfully realistic, sharing personal anecdotes of neglectful stepparents and reinforcing the manhwa's central theme of cyclical trauma. This backstory is seen as the direct cause of Cirrus's current possessive obsession with Skylar, framing their toxic relationship as a destructive bond between two individuals profoundly shaped by their pasts. Amidst the heavy emotional content, readers found a moment of dark humor in a side character, Ri-in's brother, innocently asking for a definition of an orphanage.
