At the End of Ruin, There You Are (56 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 118
Since the princess from the Kerujan Kingdom had arrived, Caella could no longer leisurely enter the Imperial Palace once every four days.
Starting tomorrow, the pre-wedding festivities would begin. So she’d have to enter the palace today, tomorrow, the day after, and the day after that as well.
Over the past few days, she’d managed to handle some tasks brought by messengers from the palace, but thanks to the capable handmaidens of the Empress’s quarters and the help of noble ladies, Caella had managed to catch her breath.
Most of all, Pheon, who always stayed by her side, had taken care of her so devotedly—so excessively attentive with his usual taciturn expression—that she woke up feeling much lighter.
When she opened her eyes, stretched her arms, and turned to look beside her, Pheon was already glancing at her. There wasn’t the slightest trace of sleepiness in his eyes.
“Good morning.”
If anything, his gaze looked extremely tired.
“You woke up early.”
Had something happened during the night? Caella studied Pheon’s slightly pale face. Seeing his wife just staring blankly at him, he gave a soft chuckle, then moved first to kiss her cheek.
Lately, kisses rained down so often just from looking at each other that their faces might wear thin. It wasn’t that he deliberately planned it; rather, it was an irresistible gesture born of holding back until he couldn’t anymore.
Since when had it begun? Caella thought blankly as a kiss lightly brushed from her forehead to her temple, brow, nose, cheeks, and finally her lips.
Since when had his affection poured down like a torrential downpour? Yet calling it a downpour didn’t quite fit—it never ceased. More like a waterfall. When had this endless cascade of affection started?
‘Since we remarried?’
Her hazy mind fumbled through memories. Until their wedding, he had always treated her with propriety and courtesy. No—actually, even before their marriage after her return, things had changed.
He’d visited her several times himself, constantly happened to run into her. It was Pheon she’d met when she ran away, and Pheon who’d even brought her a peach when he found her crying in a corner of the palace. Had he come to her weighed down by guilt and obligation?
An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most
One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.
This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:
1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.
It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.
(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)
2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.
The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.
3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.
Male Lead 2 has a delicate and soft appearance, slightly green tea-like (two-faced).
Male Lead 3 is a youthful college student and a smart person who has secretly liked the female lead for a long time.
Male Lead 4 is the female lead’s father’s special assistant, a business elite with deep, hidden thoughts.
4. At the beginning of this novel, the female lead has already broken up with Male Lead 1 (Chapter 4) and gotten back together with Male Lead 2 (ex-boyfriend).
5. Enter with caution if you have triggers!!!
