Why are people shitting on the ML? Yes, he was kind of rude to the MC but he was never cruel to her and even acknowledges that she doesn't bear the guilt of her father, but he can't help his complicated feeling either. Plus, he too is still just a child.
I'm sorry but turning a blind eye to child abuse when you have the power and opportunity to intervene, especially when it would cost you nothing, that makes you a villain too. Like literally one sentence from him, and literal 2 year old won't be tortured, and you choose to say nothing?!?! Even after clearly stating that the child was innocent in all this literally seconds earlier!!!!!!!!!!
