I'm sorry, but this "dilemma" of her's is dumb. If she is really concern about her "use" then talk to sion. She's unnecessarily burdening the staff. If she really wants to do something and be of help, talk to the owner of the estate then. Sheesh.
I see where you all are coming from, but also she's been a nobel lady all of her lives. She never succeeded in running away and living an ordinary life. This is a very logical outcome for her to think about and for why the maids and everyone is rejecting her. Yes she could talk to Sion, but there's a sudden power shift, and she probably wants to find a solution herself rather than bother Sion. Not the best solution, but a reasonable one to think of when you're in that situation. She also probably thinks that one day she'll get kicked out, or that she'll be stuck in the role of a guest. No one wants to impede on others forever (though she did just fine at the Countess' house... Which is probably the only logical flaw. But she also knew she'd leave in a year, so there was a deadline and a purpose.) maybe I just relate because I've been in a similar situation
The part where she was fine at the countesses house threw me off too bcuz she was so comfy there as she knew sion would come for her eventually which is why it seems so unusual that now that the time has come she’s suddenly doubting her place in sions house. If becoming a burden was such a big concern for her why did she not think ahead during those years how she would live in his mansion as a guest so plan ahead a job for herself to not feel like a burden when the time of his return actually arrived. Think it’s just a poor device plot from the author tbh to get sion to comfort her later once he finds out
The flaw I find is that she is fine asking the staff rather than Sion. This would've solved itself if she went to Sion from the start bc either he can ask the staff to teach her a skill or ease her mind that she won't get kicked out. I find it frustrating when authors make characters dumb for no reason. And like you said, she had no problem living as a guest at the countess'
You really said it all. I wanna like her so bad because the art and plot are so interesting, but she can never manage to not be dumb for 2 chapters back to back. She has died like 7 times and never once thought "I should learn a skill so I can live independently". But now all of a sudden she's getting ideas?? Just sit down and talk to your friend lady.
Just read the latest chapter (194) of Desire Me if You Can, and the author explicitly states Joshua is 185cm.
In this story they learned abstinence.:D An important lesson for Dane.lol Spoiler

Grayson was cursed after he saw Venus, Virginia only wanted Dane.XD
I was surprised that Dane graped Grayson.lol
I still think that Dane is the worst of them all.:D
And Joshua was bad, too. Better keep their mouths shut around Chase.:D
But Grayson really had an incredible development.^^
Yes, those two were digging their own graves infront of Grayson and Chase.lol As you mentioned Chase, the poor guy, was a virgin and only slept with Josh.^^ Spoiler

And he also has to hear that Dane (Grayson's Partner!) even got his secretary Laura.XD
And remember Grayson who tracked down Dane at that night club for two weeks to stop him from cheating on him?lol
But weird, at least the male children of Ash and Koi go after promiscuous male partners.
I read in spoilers that Chrissy (lol it's still kind of cute nickname to me, so weird), is also like this and even had a partner? But not sure, there were also spoilers that Chrissy would get turned, but he is still a beta here, hmmmm.....
And females, we only know of Larien...and her 8 or 9 wives.lol Nothing on Stacy so far.
Yes, Nathaniel's story, for me it will largely depend on Chrissy Jeans character.
A partner like Josh or Dane wouldn't really fit what we know of Nathaniel, and one like Koi won't fit either. But i don't want another mess like KML, so please not like Yeonwoo.
The question is how simelar will he be to Ashley Dawson? Well, he is alive, healthy, and not locked up. But I wonder how they avoid the turning to an omega, because I understood he is still a beta. And they must be together for more than 1 1/2 years or so, because in Grayson's story more than a year passed.
YEAH! KML, while interesting enough, towards the latter half with the amnesia and pity party, it made me roll my eyes. I liked KMIYC and DMIYC a lot more than KML bc Josh and Dane, despite being omegas, took charge of the relationship and set the tone of how their relationship will be.
So yeah, it will depend on Chrissy's personality for me too.
I read a bit of the novel, and the manhwa changed the motive and the ML a bit. They made him more sympathetic and self-reflective. If you hate the ML in the manhwa, you will hate him even MORE in the novel.
It's been awhile since I read the novel, but if I recall, he basically waited half a year before he finally advertised that she went missing. He was still all about pride and reputation that he hesitated on broadcasting she was missing. And unlike the manhwa, in the novel, he knows she was on her way to leave him. She was scheduled to go the quiet countryside and he was going to let her go, but midway, she goes missing.
He thought he could secretly cover up her disappearance and find her with his own power but then 6 months go by before he finally realizes he can't depend on his own power to find her, so puts up a bounty to find Millie.
Guilt trip, gaslight, stalking. When he finds her, Millie was holding hands with a man and pretending to be pregnant. He has an absolute panic attack when he thought Millie got with another man. However, millie was only pretending to be a couple bc it would give her a discount on a store she wanted to buy. Later, he finds the guy he thought was millies new beau kissing another woman, so he beats the absolute crap out of him.
Then afterwards, he wouldn't stop bugging her, and almost even debates ruining her Cafe so that she would have no choice but to come back to him. At one point, millie is harassed by some men, and he's thinking to let her get roughed up a bit and then go save her so she'd feel grateful to him.
Oh, I also forgot to mention that he purposely gets run over by a carriage and almost dies from it bc he thought if he got injured, millie will hear about it and come running to nurse him back to health. It's when she doesn't appear even after he almost dies, that he FINALLY accepts that maybe millie is dead.
If anyone is curious, chapter 14 of the manhwa is tied to Chapter 2 of the novel. So everyone judging Tristan and going on about how he isn't empathic or falling head over heals over Eden, need to realize we're only on chapter 2 of the novel. You really expect a s straight man to turn gay in 2 chapters?
Vol 1 can be bought on Amazon. Chapter 14 of the manhwa ends exactly at the end of Vol 1.
Vol 1 is translated by worldexcerpt. You can continue reading the translation at:
https://wordexcerpt.com/series/kiss-me-if-you-can/
Volume 2, where Chapter 14 ends, starts at Ch 26. So far, Worldexcerpt does the best translation for KMIYC. All the other ones I've found, it is obvious it is google translated.
Once you've finished and get caught up and read up to ch 58, I recommend novelight:
https://novelight.net/book/kiss-me-if-you-can
Wordexcerpt ch 58 ends at 3 vol 4. So start 3 vol 5 on novelight.
Both wordexcerpt and novelight require money. If you want a free, but okay to bad translation go Blsnack:
https://blsnacks.wordpress.com/kiss-me-if-you-can/
Again, ch 14 ends at vol 1. So start at Vol 2.
The author is amazing. They're so good at making you change your impression and idea about a character. I started off absolutely hating Grayson bc of what he did to Chase in KMIYC. I still loathed him at the beginning of Desire Me If You Can, and to be frank, I actually disliked Dane as well. With their personalities, I thought they'd never get along, much less work as a romantic pair. And if they did, it'd be toxic as fuck. But to my surprise, they are a really, really good couple. And shockingly....they are super green flags to each other. It's crazy how the author made it work.
If you finished KMIYC novel, I recommend reading DMIYC as well. If anything, you see more about the Miller family and their dynamics. Josh shows up for a significant part of the novel too.









Dude, knew it was a had idea to send a coward with them. Already knew he'd be a liability.
They got no choice. Tbh better than that money hungry guy as he's cunning and dangerous. At least blondie is just a coward and not evil
They didn't need to bring a second guy at all. If they no one wanted to go, then forcing them is just going to be more of a hindrance when they're paralyzed by fear.
They felt they needed equal number of men to women, for physically strength help. In case they need to carry someone (1 man to carry 1 woman) or lift something
And look where that got them. The guy alerted the zombies by dropping the crow bar and started the car alarm, panicked and threatened to get them all killed if he wasn't the one on the tree, then almost got himself and the MC killed when he fell off the tree.
