Like I said I am not quite sure about that but I kind remember that I read something like that.
Would not that be a story? Dark MC who got corrupted by richness against Isabella who got corrupted by poorness. Who can be more vile, who would do more for money?

True, haha. That'd be a great little subplot, Dark MC and Isabella ending up miserable together. This is I think what would be one of the draws of a romance with her, watching them both crash and burn in their own horribleness.
For a more wholesome MC, it'd just be fun to watch him get pushed around or whipped by her, but he just can't help himself and keeps coming back. To me, anyways.
Makes me wonder: in Isabella's prime, was she the one breaking hearts? Or was she the one getting pumped and dumped for all she's worth? Maybe both? Because a wholesome MC romance with her might even be a small opportunity to see Isabella's atrophied 'good side'; maybe she's never actually been with someone who loves her rather just wants her as a trophy wife or a good fuck? Of course, her own narcissism surely led her to that end, but it'd be fun to watch the gears turn in her, so to speak, from experiencing Guy's honest feelings for her backed up by his immense wealth she clearly wants a piece of. Maybe she forms a twisted appreciation for him, a soft spot? I'm a sucker for that kind of story, but I'm not sure that's quite Isabella's personality.
Don't forget what Brittani did to Nicki on the dark route. She seems to be quite flexible, if there's anyone Bad Guy can corrupt down to his level it'll probably be her. And she's already a blonde...

Honestly, I think that was supposed to be more funny and cute than anything, Brit almost acting like a rambunctious overgrown child oblivious to her own strength having some roughhouse fun, while Nicki plays like a standoffish, anti-fun, no-nonsense curmudgeon. Don't think it was supposed to show corruption or cruelty or anything like that. But maybe I'm mistaken.
Why go for 40 when 50 is nifty?

All jokes aside, Guy does serve up that Gen X energy.
Move aside boomers, Gen X are the overlords now
