### Summary
Following a controversial and rushed reconciliation with her estranged father, the narrative immediately introduces a new confrontation as protagonists Bianca and Zachary have an unwelcome encounter with their primary antagonists, Prince Jacob and Zachary’s brother, Viscount Hugues. Reader reception for these villains is overwhelmingly negative, with commenters labeling them "trash" and "cockroaches," condemning Jacob as a "creepy" stalker and Hugues for his greed. This tense meeting occurs while readers are still actively debating the previous chapter's events. Many remain angered by Bianca’s quick forgiveness of her father, viewing his apology for nine years of neglect as insincere and the resolution as unearned. Conversely, a vocal minority defends her choice as a pragmatic way to alter her tragic future or as a sign of personal strength in letting go of resentment. Amid the escalating drama, the romantic subplot between the knight Gaspard and the maid Yvonne continues to be a source of positive engagement, praised by readers as a "cute" and welcome diversion. Similarly, Zachary's subtle but misinterpreted moments of affection for Bianca are well-received. A notable undercurrent in the comments is the conflicted sentiment that despite his villainy, Viscount Hugues is physically attractive.
