Happily Ever Afterwards — Chapter 61

Whew, **Happily Ever Afterwards [Official] Chapter 61** certainly hit readers right in the feels! 😭 It seems everyone's hearts are breaking watching Peony and Richt navigate this painful moment.

The overwhelming cry from the comments? "JUST TALK TO HER!" 🙏 Readers are frustrated with the classic "leaving you to protect you" trope, finding it annoying and wishing for a simpler solution like... well, just getting married and moving kingdoms! Some did appreciate the scene, though, seeing Richt finally witness the hurt his decisions are causing.

Richt's emotional vulnerability, especially that last panel look, really resonated and wounded souls (in a good, dramatic way!). Peony's crying and shouting moments had others tearing up too, though a few playfully ribbed her about the shouting. There's definite love for the side pairing of Marie and Andy and their delicious pining! 🥰

Overall, Chapter 61 brought on the angst and tears, leaving everyone desperately hoping these two find a way past the misunderstandings and just. talk. already! 🗣️
