hrm a little bit a lot more neatly tied up about the Rieze situation compared to the novel (took some more clues and deductive reasoning as Rieze wasn't THIS sloppy) but still it's the same result. All we gotta do is get the happily ever after like romance novels deserve, right??

Do you mind elaborating further on what they had to discover in order to uncover her true nature in the novel?
In the novel they don’t just do a complete 180. The parents who always doted on their precious golden daughter find it hard to believe she did anything wrong and sweep the issue under the rug. The proud Duke who has never apologized before doesn’t apologize to Edith until years later.
It‘s Killian who gets to decide Edith’s fate and saves her; to which the Duke decides to imprison her for questioning. The knife incident is thwarted by Killian who shows the knife is too warm for the freezing Edith to have held and the bars are spaced in a way that she couldn’t have cut Reese. Neither the Duke nor Duchess were there to see and just sweep it all under the rug.
Reese’s attitude changes slowly causes the Duke and Duchess to grow distant from her and over time shakes Cliff from his blind devotion.
Basically the Manhua treats it like a switch where once the final condition was met everyone started seeing Reese for who she was and doing a 180 on her; whereas the novel treats it like al the feelings they had are still there and their personalities are the same, they just aren’t being kept on track by the story so over time they can change how they treat Edith and Reese but not immediatel.

i didn't read the novel, but after I read ch 83, I passed my eye in the entire story again because I really liked it and wanted to see some scenes again (and because it still need a week to the next ch), than i realised that the mother was already starting to see something off way before the third condition.
Like when the protagonist appeared to see that blue ugly jewel necklace, the moment that she enter the room you can see the mother expression changing.
And if i am correctly, it was after the second condition, so I think it was actually really natural, they started to see something was off, "why we didn't think about Edith?", even the part where the mother saw the protagonist being beated in the carriage and even listened what Reese said to Cliff after the kidnapping.
If it was like you said that after everything that happened, they would still be on Reese side, it would lost a lot of the charm of this manwua, where isn't aways the protagonist that need to discover everything, I think they are doing a excelente job

It's kinda hard to explain, the manga version just felt rushed and too neatly wrapped up compared to the novel, like to the point the characters changed a lot more in a shorter period of time. Reese really was more subtle in how she tried to kill Edith up until the very end. They erased a lot of the hard work that Edith put into caring about the family and how it really was Killian actually DOING more to resolve the situation than in the manhwa, where he didn't actually do all that much in the end lol. I highly recommend the novel! Felt much more satisfying imo
They don’t blame Reese for the necklace, it was their decision. They just realize they were wrong when Killian comes in a flips out on them. And they changed things to have the Duchess see Edith get hurt so they could justify the 180 on her. In the novel the Duchess is too focused on saving Reese that she doesn’t pay attention to Edith trying to save her and with being knocked unconscious she doesn’t really remember what happened.
It’s Linan who later vouches for her (after Killian saves her) since he was injured trying to meet them and saw what happened. And it’s Linan and Anna who stand up for Edith because her time with them had an impact on them. Edith barely spends time with the Duke and Duchess but she sees Linan and Anna everyday which is why they support her.
If the Duchess hadn’t physically seen what happened, got a confession from Reese’s maid (who isn’t a character in the novel and was just made up in the manhua as a deus ex machina to turn everyone against Reese) and Reese had‘t been changed to be more overt; what justification would the Duke or Duchess have to believe their golden daughter was evil?
