Book where the MC is hated for a reason? (With no romance as the focus) (lemm.ee)

In universe I mean, not by the reader. I remember the few times I saw stories like that were fairly… cringe; the MC was usually a loner and the people didn't have a good reason to hate him, if any at all!

But when there is a reason, whether it would be something they did in the past or being bad in the present? I love the drama and conflict potential. Does anyone know a book like this?

Time dilation is useful to dilute the impact of the prior novel, as the MC wasn't originally to be Ender.
