Can you tell us happened after the divorce? I'm kinda want to know what happened
I think the plot isn’t dragged out. I think it’s important to see how things play out - especially when we have the evil Sinclair girl who’s obsessed with Killian. I would like to see her get in trouble and be gone forever. I also want to see how Killian and Edith settle in their new territory if it’s still happening. Overall, I like that the manhwa is addressing everyone’s ending (of new beginning) like the princess, the empire, etc
Well, that Sinclair girl and her family only play a minor role in the novel. They are only known as Reeze's previous family and never become relevant to the story. So, the way it's dragged out suggests that the manhwa version is trying to include characters that aren't necessary.
Cliff married someone else and live happily while Reeze was sent out to Monastery.
The Sinclair family still played a role in trying to take over the iron ore distribution rights. Plus lize used her sister in a plot to try and kill Edith. They need to be concluded once and for all. They might not have been major in the main story of the original author but they were still decent antagonists when this edith met the two conditions.
In the novel version, it ended with Reeze's defeat. Afterwards, Killian and Edith moved out of the duke's mansion to live in Killian's territory. Cliff still has his status as Duke successor and marries Reeze but divorced her later on. Manhwa version seems planning something, like Killian may have potential to become Duke successor, princess romance & new love rival to Edith.
