If I Can't Have You…: Rose becomes increasingly desperate the more her efforts to get rid of Ripley and become the Duchess get thwarted. Eventually, she breaks into the Duke’s house disguised as a maid, and tries to murder Ripley and Sylvia out of revenge. Oh, of course!” I replied about five seconds too late, because I had forgotten who I was while stuffing my face with macarons. And I turned around to see… A partir de aquí nos encontraremos una historia caótica y súper divertida donde Ripley intentará juntar a toda costa a los protagonista de la novela mientras el duque le exige a ella que se case con él, ya que debe hacerse responsable por esa primera noche juntos. Holy cow—Ripley sure had a good pedigree for a side character. She was the daughter of a count, for heaven’s sake! Even the heroine was only the daughter of a baron. All-Loving Heroine: Despite being somewhat materialistic and short-tempered, Ripley is kind-hearted and friendly to all.

It was definitely a question, but she didn’t seem to be expecting an answer—seeing as how she placed a bowl of water right next to the bed.

No he leído muchos manhwas con reencarnaciones, pero dentro de mi corta experiencia puedo decir que este es de los mejores que he leído. Nuestra protagonista, Ripley, reencarna de repente en su webnovel favorita y le toca ser la hija de una familia rica que no tiene mucha importancia en la trama. Ella decide disfrutar la situación y ver en primera persona cómo se va desarrollando el romance entre la protagonista femenina (huérfana adoptada por una familia rica, que sigue conservando su esencia humilde) y el protagonista masculino (duque frío y cortante).

Death Glare: One of his favorite expressions. Either you’ve done something bad and now he’s going to punish you, or Lord Wright is with Ripley again (it’s always a misunderstanding though). I was relieved when a glass of water appeared in front of my eyes. It seemed I wasn’t alone after all. I tried to sit up, and someone held my arm and politely supported me. It was probably Sylvia—the so-called maid I’d met yesterday. Smug Smiler: His other favorite expression. He smirks at nearly everyone and everything, usually when he's being intimidating or showy with his wealth or power. His smirk could only mean one thing. I looked at his sexy smile and thought to myself, I’m screwed.

Antagonists

so the main draw is from the characters and how they play with the meta without it getting too complicated and contradicting the characters’ motives. I liked the second male lead, Wright, more than the obsessive duke, I thought as I watched Etoile leave. Wright is a super sweet guy. I looked around as I sipped some champagne. Etoile and the duke are supposed to have their first encounter today, so he must be here, too. Let’s see, the duke has blond hair and blue eyes, so…

Devoted to You: Once he finds love, he becomes loyal and unwavering in his devotion. With Ripley, he can't even try to make her jealous through flirting with someone else, because he is just too much in love with her to do it properly. Alpha Bitch: She’s a prominent member of high society, and had loads of connections and resources thanks to her wealthy father. She asks cordial to most high-ranked people in public, but will become insanely jealous towards anyone aiming for Zeronis, like Ripley. While I mainly touched on the reasons this isn't a ten - the art, comedy, and likeable characters make this an overall good read. Insecure Love Interest: This is the main reason why Ripley is initially uncomfortable with getting into a relationship with Zeronis; she viewed the original text as law, and so she believed she should not take the “heroine” position from Etoile, even if she does slowly fall in love with Zeronis.Ripley de Liverpool es una chica que se encuentra atrapada en su libro romántico favorito como un personaje secundario de esta historia: la hija de un Conde. Zeronis de Inglid, protagonista del libro y duque, estaba supuesto a enamorarse de la hija adoptada de un barón, Etoile de Haley⭐️, en el cumpleaños de esta. Pero gracias a Ripley y un pal de tragos🥂 + una noche salvaje😳🤭🥰 la loquita se emborracho🥂, se acostó con el Duque y no recordaba nada al otros día🤣, la historia cambio. Ahora el Duque la quiere para él. It appeared I was near the beginning of the novel. According to the plot, I knew it was the heroine’s birthday today, and she was meant to meet the duke for the first time at her birthday party. Then, after a whirlwind of happy coincidences, they would live happily ever after… But it would take about a year for them to get married. The romance is pretty shallow (she's the first to be kind to him so he's devoted to her, and why wouldn't she like him), but it's nice to see two characters love and care for each other so it's not bad. Significant Green-Eyed Redhead: Ripley has flaming red hair and bright green eyes, standing out amongst the majority of blond-haired, blue-eyed cast.

The man in front of me had blond hair and blue eyes—which was no surprise, because the author of the book I’d been reading was obsessed with blond hair and blue eyes.There are dozens of webtoons that portray crimes, abuse etc. for the sake of the plot but not a SINGLE ONE has romanticised it to this extent. The bright colors, the protag's inner "admiration"& side characters pitting them together? What the actual hell?? In other webtoons with crime portrayal you can at least tell that it's wrong e.g. through an inner voice or side characters confronting them (e.g. "Not Even Bones" while both of the protags were doing awful things, they still showed signs of regret — or even when they didn't, it was still evident that it was wrong)
