A quick summary of I'm in Love with the Villainess episode 2

In the last episode, it was discovered that Rae's performance in the magic test was deemed immeasurable. This was due to the manipulation of the game, which favored Rae by awarding her two seldom-seen magic elements, thereby establishing her as an exceptional individual.

Following her defeat in the competition, Claire had no other option but to comply with Rae's demand. Astonishingly, Rae's request turned out to be honorable and appropriate. Her only plea was for Claire to make a solemn vow to never surrender, irrespective of the formidable or distressing circumstances that may arise. While initially puzzled by this appeal, Claire ultimately consented to it.

Next, the episode showcased Rae's entrance into an interview as a candidate for the position of Claire's personal maid. Although the head maid recognized Rae's exceptional skills and approved of her, Claire insisted on rejecting her. During the interview, Dole, Claire's father and the finance minister of the Kingdom, entered the room. At first, he supported Claire's decision, but Rae astounded him by revealing a specific name, date, and sum of money.

Rae assumed the role of Claire's personal maid, attending to her every need. Meanwhile, Rod longed for Rae's company, but she remained dedicated to her duties. Deep down, she was determined to steer clear of any entanglements in a romantic storyline involving the prince.

That night, as Claire gathered the courage to confront Rae about her true intentions, she was met with a response that failed to convince her. According to Rae, she had chosen to become Claire's maid due to her profound admiration for both her looks and personality. However, Claire remained skeptical and did not find her own personality to be deserving of such praise. Recognizing the futility of prolonging the discussion, she decided to put the matter to rest and retire for the night.

What to expect in I'm in Love with the Villainess episode 3?

In the upcoming episode 3 of I'm in Love with the Villainess, the storyline will once again showcase the conventions of an otome game. This time, Rae and Claire will find themselves engaged in a series of games with the three princes, including chess, poker, and more. However, their levels of enthusiasm may not be equal, adding an intriguing dynamic to the competitions.
