How to Refuse the Route — Bölüm 17

Whew, **How to Refuse the Route: Chapter 17** really got readers talking! The big debate swirling through the comments? The escalating love triangle that has everyone passionately divided. While many are chanting "Ilya, come get yo's man!" and declaring themselves staunchly #TeamIlya 📢, Karyan, the Crown Prince, has definitely charmed his way into hearts too.

Many readers are feeling that classic second male lead syndrome for Karyan, wishing him happiness even if he doesn't end up with Jerry 🥺, or playfully suggesting a polyamorous route ("Why not both?"). Others simply want everyone to be friends and avoid the romance altogether! The infamous handkerchief incident left some initially confused, quickly realizing Karyan's intentional, smooth move to connect with Jerry.

A few discussions popped up about the age gap between the physically young Jerry (12) and Karyan (15/16), despite Jerry's mental maturity. And the ongoing bewilderment over *all* of Jerry's brothers being potential love interests for him is still a head-scratcher for some. Oh, and where was Ilya this chapter?! Many fans were definitely missing their baby boy 😭. All in all, **How to Refuse the Route: Chapter 17** delivered major feels and left everyone eager for more romantic (or non-romantic) chaos!
