There was a discordant note in this update: one of those instances where the MC acted in a way I found distasteful and incongruous, without a choice being offered. It wasn’t the debate with Ian over who would be the top and who the bottom in their bromance: thankfully they put off action on that. Instead it was the reception that the MC gave Abel and Sophia when they did him the honor of paying him a visit. It has been established that everyone and their uncle can access his club-provided apartment, so he was already resigned to that reality. In this case it wasn’t even a surprise, as he was given advance notice of their presence. These are VIPs, and I would expect the MC to treat them with courtesy, and be eager to learn the purpose of their visit. Instead he was rude, dismissive, and called Sophia a ‘Nazi’.
This bothered me because, if I were in the MC’s shoes, I would abandon thoughts of med school and try to leverage my connections to get into the brothel’s management and ownership; and beyond that into a piece of the action with Abel & Sophie’s special pharma products. The chance to make a better connection with those two would be invaluable; not something to throw away because the MC was pissed he had to miss out on some more Mina time. At the least I would expect to be offered a choice: “Be an asshole” or “Be Polite.”
I suppose this is a sign that the authors have no intention of letting the story go in that direction. Perhaps the MC is fated to marry Ian and become a gay doctor. I hope we are offered a choice at that juncture, even if only between that and suicide.
ur very determined for ur tastes, i can at least respect that lol
