I Decided to Let You Go (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 43
After finishing her conversation with the butler, the sun had already begun to set. She recalled hearing that Zieghart would be busy late into the evening with the knights’ training.
Natasha enjoyed an early dinner and then returned to her room. She intended to swiftly deal with the bothersome task at hand.
First, she cut the drawing paper to the size of a handkerchief. She needed to select design candidates and practice, so she prepared a generous number of sheets.
She carefully shaved the pencil’s core with a knife. When the graphite core was sufficiently exposed, she took a sheet of paper.
‘What motif should I draw?’
With no good ideas coming to mind, she kept idly tapping the pencil against the blank paper. Each time she flicked it with her fingers, black dust settled on the paper like foreign debris.
‘I can’t just draw something half-heartedly, either.’
Since this gift represented the Aschardt family, it would inevitably attract public attention. Presenting an embroidery that appeared thoughtless or sloppy would be like tossing bait to those eagerly waiting for a chance to slander her.
‘The ducal crest? No, that’s too common. How about something slightly abstract—a moon, perhaps? Hmm, that’s also too dull. The sword, symbol of knighthood… Oh dear, it’s a sword-themed embroidery, and now I’ve overlapped it.’
She was lost in thought, moving her pencil aimlessly across the page,
when suddenly she snapped out of it and looked ahead—only to realize what she’d unconsciously drawn. The rough lines and sharp angles formed a strikingly handsome face that damnably resembled a certain man.
‘I can’t possibly embroider Zieghart’s face, you fool!’
The unconscious mind truly was frightening.
Once, she had drawn the man’s face endlessly until she thought she’d die of exhaustion, and apparently, her hands still remembered it perfectly—even though she’d returned to her past self, it was astonishing.
Bold strokes roughly outlined the subject’s sharp jawline, thick neck, and sturdy shoulders. Subtle lines flowed seamlessly within, accentuating the man’s intense presence. Remarkably, even the interplay of light and shadow in this unintentional sketch was flawless.

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!!!
