I reread it from the beginning and it really doesn't seem to me that Liz is being "cheating" to Maki because they never formalized the relationship...
Yes, there was a contract but didn't say anything about formalizing the relationship... was a "slavery" contract.
So what would count as “formalizing” the relationship such that Liz would be officially “cheating”?
They live together, sleep together, and kiss in the morning. Liz cries as she thinks about Maki after she sleeps with Shitty-senpai, and calls herself, “the worst.”
In other words, they act like they’re together, and Liz regards herself as cheating, so this legalistic parsing of the term itself seems to be entirely pointless.
EDIT: In fact, in Chapter 12, Liz has described Maki to senpai as her “girlfriend,” and in Chapter 15 Jasmine scolds Liz for cheating. So I’m unclear what series you actually re-read from the beginning.

I just wanted to discuss that possible point that Liz was not "cheating" Maki, I know the author makes it obvious and leaves the rest to our interpretation.
I just found this point of view funny that it wasn't so "formal"... and leaving aside the cheating issue.
I would have liked a more direct statement between Maki and Liz from the beginning but I guess it will happen until the end.
Don't worry, they're just comments, don't be so intense hahaha
