What dumb reason is that. Breaking the engagement doesn't mean her family will stop trying to take advantage of Leon.

At least they will have less reason/cause to make use of Leon

[Twi]

Arranged marriages are done for political reasons and benefits. The engagement is an alliance, so no engagement means that they don't have that leverage. Leon himself at this point has demonstrated enough military power and prowess that he can legitimately challenge the throne for the right to rule , so the Redgraves are likely banking on the fact that Leon got involved in everything from the first Volume until now because he's in love with Angie. It's why she's told to tolerate things from him that normally would be beneath a woman of her temperament, like if he had actually cheated on her.

Of course not, but it's easier for the Redgrave to put pressure on Leon if they are going to become family. From the point of view of someone with Angie's background and education ending the engagement in order to lessen the influence of her family on her beloved is a sensible choice. Of course I personally hope there won't be any real breakup or at least they go back together by the end of the volume.

No engagement means Angie won't be able to use her family's influence and reputation to protect Leon from the other noble factions though. I don't think she's thought this through.

except for the current Leon, even without The Redgraves backing, he is still the most powerful man in the kingdom, politically and military, plus he literally is the Queen favorite, so there is almost no demerit for him even without the Redgraves, logically speaking

That was when Leon was a Baron. He's a freaking Duke now, he's equal to the Redgraves. Heck, putting aside traditions and factions, the fact basically all the nobles are scared of Leon and know how much the King trust(lol) him, he's now above them.

Just keep in mind that this is a story written by Japanese Author, and since Asian society focuses more on familial relationship, those aspects are also applied to their story.

What i mean to say is that, even if Leon is a Duke, as long as Angie is related to him, so would the rest of the Redgrave's, and that would put pressure on Leon as Redgrave's can easily take advantage of their familial relationship to him, and Leon would have to accept them unless Angie herself strongly interferes.

It is similar to how, Leon had to put of with his Sisters (aka., Jenna & Finley) even though he is higher status than them.

The point was that Leon doesn't need backing anymore. (As NAJ was talking about how breaking his engagement with Angie would make him lose the Redgraves backing) Before, being with the Redgraves was more advantageous for Leon, but now, it's more advantageous for the Redgraves (which is what Angie fears)
