ML didn't like the original but still wanted to marry her, for atleast 5 years as his father had told him he would stop meddling in his buisness affairs if he did that. -Ve points for giving the OG hope that he might like her one day (maybe they would've come to good understanding if the OG wasn't schemed by a green tea). However, I liked the fact that he didn't blame her even if the OG derailed (maybe he felt that he was at fault, failing to reciprocate her feelings), and properly compensated her after divorcing. I would have assumed he thought of himself as Asexual/Aromantic, and it is common for asian culture to think that he might develop feelings after marriage/living together, that is why arranged marriages do happen.

Infact I do not think he fell for MC because she isn't as dumb as he thought, but because he saw her hardwork to achieve something, and realised how prejudiced he was towards her. He didn't invest in the FL's company, the money was from the initial 50 million the ML gave the dad, who originally only needed 10 million and had decided to keep 40m in reserve, however after hearing FL wanting to start a company gave it to her. The ML however was one of the initial buyers, because he saw potential in her product. He didn't want the 50 million back, the FL wanted to give it back. Even after they fell for each other the FL still wanted to repay him because she wanted to protect her self-esteem, And I'm glad the ML respected her decision. It is already difficult to find CN where FL isn't omnipotent, ML isn't domineering, FL's family isn't abusing, and most of all having serious character development. I would suggest reading this novel if CN tropes have exhausted you.

• The parents of the FL are very decent; they didn't even ask for money but the ML gave it to the father because he saw the business was going to fail so wanted to help his future FIL.
• There is no scheming relatives.
• The pair talk among themselves so there is no misunderstanding.
• What I loved most was how even after the ML confessed, the FL asked for some time to give back the money he had given so that they can start a relationship from an equal place. And the ML gives her the space. They live together but hardly have time to talk with each other during this period, and once that is over, she gives a definite yes to the ML.
• I loved the ML; he is an yandere but a reasonable one. He is jealous of the FL's employees especially the handsome ones but never stops the FL from doing her job.
• There is a love rival but swiftly dealt by the FL and then the ML.
• The two robots are the best.
