for the mpreg part, it was a part of the world, where men are able to be implanted with artificial womb with magic in order to sire children. Our couple gave birth to 2 children, a boy and a girl, but it was only mention at the last chapter of the main story within one to two paragraphs only. I was kinda disappointed, but then it was expected since it was just a short story, if it could be longer, seeing the MC goes through pregnancy will make it better (my personal opinion only)

at first, I don't like the ML because, who kept on interacting with their spouse at the most minimum for three years just because you don't know what to say?! The fact he assaulted and confined his ex-lover in his bedroom was crazyy but was quickly dealt with. I quite like the ML father in this because he was the one who took charge in rescuing the confined ex-lover and was the one who pointed out that the feelings ML had for the ex was not love but obsession.

The first six months of the marriage, he reflected on himself a lot, and then actually fell in love with MC after that, but since he didn't know how to talk to MC, he kept on being taciturn for 3 years, until MC himself had enough and stopped trying to interact with him. At this point, the ML suddenly heard the alarm ringing and initiated the talk and they became honest with each other, and it was at this point the MC knows that ML was down bad for him, and was truly in love with him, though MC could'nt reciprocate the feelings yet.

The way they handled the meeting between MC and his ex was mature, but between ML and his ex, not so much. I was actually annoyed with the ML at this part, like why are you so oblivious?! He actually made MC collapsed because of the rumours and misunderstandings due to his actions (and inactions). Though he quickly apologised and took actions, I think he did deserve all the scoldings he received.

While Al's attitude was not overly harsh, it was extremely inconsiderate. He proceeds to reflect on himself for the first 6 months of marriage, and decides Noah left him because he didn't truly concern himself with Noah's thought and feelings. Which honestly kudos to him because Ml's very rarely realize this. But all this self-reflection goes down the drain, because he proceeds to treat his next love the same way just extremely colder. Noah felt severely insecure being with Al, and Al then makes Finn insecure as well? Well, that's not really my main issue really. My main issue was how quickly Finn was ready to forgive and compromise with Al. You mean to tell me emotional distress and overworking is fixed by a measly, 'Sorry I couldn't talk to you at all, but it's partially because you're too sexy.'? I'm sorry what? That make everything right with the world how? What baffled me was that everyone around Finn was so happy that Al finally treated him decently, like my man Finn was thrown into emotional turmoil and all everyone can say is 'I'm so happy you're finally talking and what about kids?' Honestly Ethan was the best. Sure, he is the third party, but I felt he was the only one rooting for Finn's wellness.

he said he liked being on the receiving end then said he's more the higher than the hugged (which makes no sense in English I think but that's what he said)

I think it's a translation error because in chapter 11 he says that the husband is 5 years older but we know he's five years younger.

The MC (Finn) has a lot of experience in relationships, having dated both men and women, and has had long-term relationships. As for the ML (Albert), from what I understood, he’s only had one previous relationship with his ex, who was also his childhood friend.

as he gets more involved with ML, his personality takes a shift, and he starts showing a noticeable neediness at times. But who wouldn’t lose it when they’re on the edge of burnout from working too much and still must deal with more relationship drama on top of that?!

He didn’t even communicate much with his ex (Noah). The ex even mentions this in a conversation with the MC that, despite being friends and having dated the ML, he was always closed off, even with him. So seeing the ML crawling after the MC after so long being the misunderstood misanthrope was amazing. Because seriously... more than three years to realize it? That’s too much.

Not only did they save Noah from Finn’s madness when he locked him in the room, but one of the dads also gave the ML a lesson for being so clueless and letting Finn suffer from the nasty rumors going around about him and his ex.
