Am I the only one who's confused about the brother and the family thing? Like, why does he come out of nowhere??
I assume it's cuz the grandpa's gonna die soon and the older brother is hoping to build a connection with his younger brother now that grandpa would be out of his way ? (Not sure tho)
Damn, this story had all the elements to be something great : hot and interesting characters, great angst potential, power bottom, great sexual tension, nice plotline ... and somehow, the author managed to use all those elements in the weirdest way possible to waste it all.
This could've been the next great ennemies-to-lovers spy x mafia story to redeem the debacle that was Roses and Champagne. But no. Instead, we got a confusing plot (sorry but all the spy elements make no sense whatsoever), weird sexual tension moments (like wtf was this train arc with the mc just watching is comrade having sex with random girls next to him???), an awful sex scene (honestly, all of that waiting for the culmination to be the mc getting raped while drugged is awful beyond words) and a very predictable plot twist (like sorry author-nim but it was so OBVIOUS from the beginning that he was the bad guy all along).
Idk if it's just the manwha that weirdly adapted the novel, but this is such a disappointment...
