Aria is so on another level of savageness.
When will the romance will start?

@yannickq if you're interested in that aspect, the webnovel goes into further depth! The translation gets kind of...mtl after a bit, but there's a lot more description of her business ventures. This chapter in particular had a lot more nuance and thinking going on - I'm actually a little disappointed that the webtoon chose to skimp on it. Suffice to say, they're was a lot more of Mielle shooting herself in the foot with her conservative ideals of what women can and cannot do. Aria almost doesn't have to lift a finger with the way Mielle's poor understanding of businesses, economics, and wealth destroys her image with these commoners and low ranking noble wives. The baroness here is cheerful and kind to both sisters, but in the book she was clearly insulted by Mille's dismissal of her efforts, as was everyone else.
I get what you mean though, I wish the webtoon incorporated some of the deeper elements of the novel because in general the webtoon is better.

I hope she can join just so that she has some people to just be friends with instead of manipulating them.

 

[yannickq]

@Lemongrassv yes! I've read the webnovel before which was why I was so excited about this adaptation. The original novel translation was... a bit iffy, and I do love the artwork here - guess we were both hoping for a bit too much haha
