How the Abandoned Queen Made That Man Kneel (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 18
In the haze of swirling dust, two blades clashed, sparking like flashes of lightning.
The sharp metallic clang echoed swiftly across the training ground, and the sword in Sir Antonio’s hand cracked, finally shattering into pieces.
Even the honorable title of Imperial Guard Captain was forced to yield before Parnes.
“Ugh, I’ve lost. I can’t see any way to win.”
Sir Antonio, the Guard Captain, stared down at the blade, now shattered beyond recognition, as a chill of cold sweat ran through him.
If this had been a real battle, it would undoubtedly have been his neck, not the sword, torn to shreds.
“If I may be so bold, Your Majesty, your movements today seem unusually rough. It’s as if your mind is elsewhere.”
“…….”
Parnes, as usual, answered with silence, taking the towel offered by Ludwig to wipe his face.
A cool breeze blew through.
His shoulders, heaving from the intense training, gradually settled, like a calm sea after a storm.
Ludwig tilted his head.
In his twenty years of serving the imperial court, he had never found it so hard to gauge His Majesty’s mood.
What could he be pondering so deeply all day since the last ball?
When Parnes’ breathing grew so calm it seemed he might have stopped altogether, Ludwig could no longer hold back and spoke.

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!!!

I get she has been betrayed over and over again. However, this is the same man who left you while you were still injured? Why hold out a single hope for him. Not only that he screwed your sister and made you watch? How could you even be surprised at this point. This woman is exhausting most of the time.
Mann..that is beyond twisted. She will jump off just for attention😒
Just when I thought I can’t any madder than the previous chapter..here we are.
