The First Night With the Duke — Chapter 47

Whew, readers had *thoughts* about The First Night With the Duke: Chapter 47! 😮‍💨 The overwhelming sentiment? Our dear Ripley is, well, a bit *dense*. Many fans are scratching their heads, wondering how she could possibly believe the Prince's obvious lie that Duke Zeronis entrusted her to him. "Girl, he wouldn't let ANY MALE NEAR YOU WITH A 50 FT POLE!" one comment exclaimed, perfectly summing up the frustration.

The general consensus is that Ripley's gullibility is off the charts, with some finding it hilarious 🤣 while others are ready to pull their hair out. "She's such a moron it hurts," and "I've felt so frustrated with an FL for the first time!" are common refrains. There's also widespread surprise that the Duke didn't leave a single guard for her.

However, a few readers defend Ripley, suggesting her "stupidity" is part of her charm and fits the story's comedic, tongue-in-cheek style. Some even connect her past "delulu" moments to her current behavior, arguing it makes sense within her character arc. But whether you're laughing or sighing, Chapter 47 definitely got everyone talking about Ripley's latest antics! ✨
