The Villainess Lives Again — Chapter 199

Oh boy, The Villainess Lives Again, Chapter 199 dropped, and readers are buzzing! The biggest cheer? Emperor Gregor finally getting his comeuppance! 🥳 Many are thrilled to see the old man's health failing, wishing for him to "croak" already, though some playfully admit his dramatic "PLOP" faceplant was *chef's kiss* satisfying. Diabetes or just karmic retribution? Either way, fans are ready for him to vacate the throne.

But the true heart of the chapter, and the comments, lies with Tia and Cedric. Our brilliant schemer, Tia, is still very much stuck in a cycle of self-punishment. Readers deeply empathize with her trauma, acknowledging that healing isn't linear, and still adore her "king-maker" prowess. However, there's growing frustration with how her self-sabotage is hurting poor Cedric. 💔

Cedric is getting major sympathy, feeling "so alone" in their marriage despite his efforts. While some wish he'd "grow some balls" and stand on his own, most feel heartbroken for him, hoping Tia will finally open up. There's even a craving for a dramatic confrontation to finally sort out their complicated dynamic! Meanwhile, Laurence is just... a copycat, dangerous only because he's recycling Tia's old schemes, much to readers' amusement. This chapter truly has everyone feeling all the feels!
