@MyBae_san I also thought so, but we dont really know her mom's background and if so, his new wife also isnt better since the reader said about her trying everything to be part of their socialite circle.. so I think her stepmom isnt from an elite family too. Maybe.. the father cant move on and u know vent all his anger about what happened to his child since the reader resemblance her mother. Whichever, the reader is soo pitiful since none of it are her fault, yet she is the one who have has to experience it all. And the only one that always protect her as friend since their r kids turn his back on her bcs of this arrange marriage when he is the only one she can hold, her only hope.
