After reading the novel, the chapters after the current manhwa chapter is gonna be so frustrating until the end of the main story. Even the side stories get frustrating too. Idk, I think the available translations for the novel gets too incomprehensible in the side stories which adds to my frustration. Penelope can't take a break, she even kinda sabotages herself sometimes. Yvonne got so damn unbearable with her oh so puffy eyes crying all the damn time. I just wanna rip her eyes out while she says "b-br-brother, I mean y-young d-duke". Shut up, you're not Maxi.
All I just wanna say is that Emily is best girl

Don't slander the FL yet (aka Leo's stepmother). I swear she's amazing, naive in some ways but she's feisty and smart! Perfect for the duke and Leo. Don't worry, the romance is not forced (maybe a bit, but that's because Leo really wants Varria to marry Pelio and become her stepmother). Their interactions in the novel are really funny and amusing from what I've read so far. I wanna read more but I can't find the novel anywhere except for Yonder which unlocks 1 chapter a day (or pay to read but it's expensive)

Yonder, it's an app. It's paid, the whole book is about 100 dollars (if you're gonna buy the coin pack) it's too expensive especially in my country's currency. You can unlock 1 chap a day or you could do what I've been doing, I made several accounts to read several chapters a day.
Tips if you're gonna read it on the app:
- They have a 'spin the wheel' where you can get 5-15 coins a day. The coin adds up and you can use that to unlock a chapter
- They have events where you subscribe to a story and they give you 30 coins. You can use that to unlock a chapter. But you can only claim it once. The coins can be used in any story.
- 1 chapter is 29 coins each. You can keep that chapter. If you unlock a chapter using the 'unlock 1 chapter a day', you only 'rented' that chapter and can only keep it for 3 days so if you want to reread it, use another phone (bc it doesn't let you take a screenshot) to use the google translate feature or camera feature (if you have) to copy the text and paste it on a separate document (i wish I've done this when I started reading just so I can reread).
I love the bonus surprise at the end with Ivan and Till. Patiently waiting for HSR djs
