Seol-young, who suddenly came to consciousness, opened her eyes and found her surroundings reminiscent to that of a drama set of a historical drama. “And when did my hair get so long?!” To make matters worse, there is even a girl who calls her a “lady”…?

Spoiler: Source https://manhwafull.com/manga/flowers-are-flowers-leaves-are-leaves/ PS: I found this new webtoon and after reading 1st chapter and saw raws till 10th chapter ...found to be quite interesting, and felt that it's based on a novel. Maybe someone read the novel and would be kind to share some spoilers? Thanks! PSS: I'm a HUUUUGE sucker for these kind of stories, aka historical josei/romance with isekai plus some sweet revenge as the cherry on the top and some smut/adult for pure pleasure tho not sure of this novel has ALL those elements, so ...puhlease some spoilers!

Spoiler: B*tch sister The sister was beating a maid with a horses whip and MC gets to know so she goes to rescue her. The b*tch sister strikes MC once while protecting the maid on the back. So the father is good on MC, when he discovers what that b*tch has done he punishes her getting her locked in her room without water or food for three whole days. The wife (another bish) tries to butt in but he warns her to not try anything. In my opinion he was too lenient on her but I guess being the main's wife daughter stills has her perks.
I really hope the ML will be the bodyguard, but I sincerely doubt it since the one from the cover seems to be the prince or what his rank is.
So you're telling me her father was misunderstood to be a bad father for the mc? I kinda dislike the father to be a good father after all the neglection he did to her
Yeah, I dislike him too. From what I understood, he loved MC's mother deeply which makes the main wife jealous because she isn't. He is cold and don't shows much emotions but I hope he will try to be a more decent parent for MC. P. D: Sorry for the bad English, it's not my main language.
Spoiler: Chapter 8 The Prince comes by and asks Seoulyoung’s (SY) maid about SY’s condition. When they say she’s resting, he says he wants to see her face. SY’s nanny says that while SY is physically fine, SY has lost her memories. He gets shocked and angry that more isn’t being done for SY since it’s a big deal that someone loses their memory. Prince then says he will send a doctor. He also hands the maid some sweets for SY before leaving. The young maid asks the nanny how the Prince knows SY. Before the fire, SY and the Prince were really close. She even called him older brother and he thought that she was really cute. However, after the fire SY refused to meet anyone. Even though he came to visit her everyday, she didn’t come out. Nanny thinks that Prince probably came today after he saw SY’s injured legs when SY was having a smack down with the bitch sister. Prince still has lingering affection for SY. Spoiler: Chapter 9 Prince thinks back to his childhood days when he was close to SY. He affectionately called her Young-ah. He wasn’t able to meet her after the fire but he thinks that SY looked very different when talking to bitch sister (YeaHwa-YH). Prince tells the nanny to take care of SY. He leaves when he overhears bitch sister yelling that she wants to meet the Prince. SY has been exercising a lot. Gyum comes and gives her some sweets. He looks at her sweaty body and thinks she’s really pretty. They discuss perfumes and he gets confused when SY mentions all these scents that he doesn’t recognize. Gyum says he brought a book for her but are interrupted by someone knocking. Spoiler: Chapter 10 Gyum leaves. Her maid comes in and says that bitch sister is disciplining a maid (and whipping her) for dropping an embroidery. The maid reports this because SY had wanted all the gossip about bitch sister. SY asks for a cane. SY goes to where bitch sister is whipping the maid. Bitch sister is mad because the embroidery that was dropped was made for the Prince (I think- she says it’s for older brother). SY stops bitch sister and says she came to give her some sweets (that Gyum had previously brought). SY taunts bitch sister and says that if Prince saw her like this, she would be very embarrassed. SY gets down to help the maid that was being punished. Bitch sister gets her whip up. Spoiler: Chapter 11 SY gets hit by bitch sister. Bitch sister tries to whip SY but a rock hits bitch sister’s wrist and she gets injured (yay for Gyum!) Bitch sister’s mom comes and asks what’s going on. Bitch step mother starts insulting SY and SY gets flashbacks to her OG life. Bitch step mother goes away with bitch sister and calls a doctor for bitch sister since her wrist is hurt. SY faints with a fever. Spoiler: Chapter 12 Even though SY is sick, no doctor is called for her. Her maid tries to go and help SY but bitch sister’s maid stops her (AKA bitch maid) in front of SY’s room. Bitch maid says it’s SY’s fault for getting in front of bitch sister so it’s her fault for getting sick. Bitch maid throws out SY’s maid. Gyum makes bitch maid go to sleep and goes inside SY’s room. SY is awake and has been waiting for Gyum. He asks if it’s to thank him for throwing the stone. She says he should have done more than merely throwing a small stone at her wrist. Gyum tells SY that she should go to bitch sister and greet her. She tells him to stop talking and just give her what he brought her. She says he probably either brought books, food, or medicine. He grumbles and says he brought all 3. But he wants to know, why she did that. Spoiler: Chapter 13 SY says that she helped the maid being beaten because that maid is the one who takes care of the library. SY wants to read books so she thought that maid might be of little help. Gyum gives her the book, medicine, and food. When he mentions that she doesn’t seem to be in pain, SY says her “condition” isn’t that bad. It’s an English word so he doesn’t understand. SY eats the sweets that Prince left her earlier. SY heard that before the fire, SY, the Prince, and bitch sister were all close. SY looks at the book Gyum brought and can tell that he stole it from her father’s library. She tells him to never return. She can tell that he’s more than a simple bodyguard. His skills are top notch and he has a different fancy handkerchief everyday. In addition, the sweets that he brought earlier were expensive ones that only nobles can eat. She says he’s probably. from a noble family. He gets quiet and says he just has a little money. SY just wants to know why he’s hanging around her. Gyum says that he was just curious about her. She asks him point blank what his deal is. Spoiler: Chapter 14 Gyum tells her about his organization. As she knows, they take jobs based on money but also curiosity. And what he’s most curious about right now, is SY. He says that even though she has no memories and just woke up from an illness, she has adjusted very quickly and speaks very strangely. She also does exercises that usually only guys do and knows how to move her body. She says that answers her question. Gyum says he wants to be friends as it’s fun talking with her. Her maid comes a couple days after and applies medicine on SY’s back. The maid remembers how SY clapped back at the bitch maid and says that SY is so cool. When SY learns that her father is coming home soon, she tells her maid to not tell her father about the incident. Her father must be tired from being away so she doesn’t want to bother him. She thinks that her father must be similar to her OG life grandfather. She forced herself to hike early in the mornings to get close to her grandfather. SY thinks that she was to show the same type of will to get closer to her dad. Her father comes home and asks his aid about SY. The aid doesn’t know much about SY so her father gets a little irritated. Spoiler: Chapter 15 Bitch stepmom tries to invite father for food with bitch sister but dad refuses. Bitch step mother thinks that father used to be sweet when SY’s mother was alive but he got cold afterwards. Bitch stepmother is bitter that SY’s mother continues to haunt her after her death. Just then, SY’s father hears that SY fainted while walking over to greet him. He immediately calls for a doctor. While in front of SY’s room, her dad overhears SY with the doctor (but we don’t know what’s said). SY wakes up after a few days. When her maid frets over her whip wounds. SY says to not say anything as her father could overhear. She doesn’t want to bother him. However, he father comes in asking what SY means. SY tries to greet him but father stops her since she’s so weak. Her father asks SY what she was talking about earlier. SY gives excuses as to why a whip was used so the father asks the maid. Her maid gets stressed since she doesn’t know what to say. (She tells him everything) Spoiler: Chapter 16 Her father punishes bitch sister for whipping her maid and SY. He orders bitch sister to be confined in her room for 4 days without any food or water. Bitch stepmother barges in but he says bitch sister is at fault. He tells her to reflect. The father orders his aid to personally guard bitch sisters door so that the bitch stepmother can’t get in. SY drinks tea. Her maid is happy that bitch sister got disciplined personally by the father. SY recognizes that her father probably avoided her since he loved SY’s mom and lost her to the fire. Prince gets a report that SY has been recovering well. Then, the Prince thinks some ambiguous words that I don’t understand yet as there can be multiple interpretations: “It’ll be different, SY. I will make it like that.”
Based on 16 chapters, it didn’t seem like the father was neglectful. The FL refused to meet anyone after the fire incident so the father was forced to just watch her from afar. In addition, he lost FL’s mother to the fire so he probably wasn’t emotionally stable when the FL started to close in due to her injuries. Otherwise, it would just seem like lazy writing from the author to have the father suddenly change personalities….
I want to know if anyone may know who the ml is in the story because I’m getting very big second ml syndrome from that gyum…and myung the second prince just gives me ml vibes idk but I’ll be surprised if it’s the other way around ngl.
Thank you sooooooo much for the spoiler!! If you can coud you please tell where you got the spoilers?
