## Series

- slug: the-monstrous-dukes-adopted-daughter-cc9902

## Chapter
- number: 28
- release_date: 2025-03-08

### Summary
Based on the reader comments for the current chapter, Marquis Speràdo displays blatant hypocrisy and misogyny, deriding women as "just females" despite the Duke Salvator (a woman) having broken his arm. This scorn is immediately undercut as he grovels before the powerful Dowager Empress Medea (another woman) seeking her aid, highlighting his irony and earning reader ire over his name sounding like "Trash Basch/Trash Bag". Medea is confirmed as the blue-haired figure spying on the Salvators previously. A significant lore reveal from a Speràdo diary indicates that not all past heirs were compliant; at least one resisted sacrificing their sibling, lashing out with newfound power to help them escape, though the family responded by creating magical chains to suppress such rebellion and continued the sacrifices. Readers express intense hatred towards the Marquis and suspicion towards Medea as a villain, while also appreciating Duke Salvator's petty act of forcing his arm to heal slowly and contrasting the Speràdos' evil with the wholesome Salvator family moments.
