Imma be so fr when I first read this (I think a year ago) I thought it was whack and plot progression was too fast and BOY O BOY I WAS SO FUCKING WRONG. I would usually complain if a manhwa is plot heavy and focuses less on the revenge but this manhwa did it so fucking well?? And the ML and fl are soooooooo refreshingly unique.

Yall I understand the frustration when the manhwa doesn't get adapted properly when it's supposed to be an adaptation so no criticism from my end. As a non novel reader, the manhwa feels fucking amazing so I wonder what's the novel like ngl.

As a novel reader, I would say that the novel is a bit darker. Especially in the current arc. The main characters are much more desperate and, in all honesty, it was more logical in how everything unfolded. There was no "AHA She's innocent let me absolve her of all suspicion" instead they were more cautious (which made it sadder) but ultimately more rewarding. I can understand why they adapted it the way they did but doing that left out a lot of the grit. It's still a good story that will probably reach the same conclusion but it still feels a bit empty.

From what I remember there is an attempted SA, Depression, Violence

The current arc and deviation from the novel begins at chapter 111 I believe. Though reading it from the beginning isn't so bad. Also, you can look up the epilogue on this site as well.
