### Summary
This chapter delves into the toxic mother-daughter relationship between Artezia and Miraila Rosan. The central conflict is Miraila's intense jealousy and narcissistic obsession with her own beauty, which manifests as a cruel fixation on her daughter's supposed lack of feminine appeal. Readers infer that Miraila's rage is triggered by the positive attention Artezia receives from a man, heavily implied to be Grand Duke Cedric Ebron, who is shown treating Artezia with kindness and pride. This dynamic positions Miraila as a deeply personal antagonist, furious at the idea of her daughter finding favor. While Artezia continues her strategic machinations, she is also shown to be flustered by Cedric's genuine affection, highlighting her vulnerability beneath her calculating exterior. A significant portion of reader commentary focuses on Miraila's character design, noting that she is drawn as a beautiful villain, creating a stark contrast between her attractive appearance and her rotten personality. The chapter effectively uses this familial conflict to explore themes of envy and control, further cementing Miraila's role as a primary obstacle in Artezia's path.
