Lord Preston's Secret Tutor (47 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 43
She slowly stepped forward and moved to Windsor’s side. Elizabeth took a champagne glass from a passing servant and added casually,
“I’ve known Jacqueline for a long time. We even attended boarding school together.”
Windsor, who had been staring blankly at the dancers, turned his gaze back to her. Only after taking a sip of champagne did Elizabeth meet his eyes.
“!”
For a moment, she felt dizzy. Whether it was due to the champagne or the man before her, she couldn’t tell.
All she knew for certain was that the man standing expressionless beneath the dazzling chandelier light looked intensely austere.
Elizabeth deliberately lowered her eyes with a haughty expression to hide her flustered emotions.
“So you were Miss Somerset’s friend.”
“Yes, well…”
Elizabeth vaguely trailed off.
They were closer to adversaries than friends, but there was no need to say that aloud.
Keeping her eyes on the swirling crowd, she spoke again. Dresses of every color blurred together in a dizzying tangle.
“Is Jacqueline doing well at her job?”
“As you know, she’s an excellent governess.”
“Is that so? That’s rather surprising. Back in school, she gave the teachers quite a lot of trouble. You know how she sometimes causes absurd incidents out of the blue. Ah, I apologize—if you didn’t know, I suppose I’ve said something unnecessary.”

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!!!

- Chrysoprase Chapter 44 — Paragraph 95
"Do I look like I can calm down? What is so important about that mere testimony?
the mother is repulsed by the idea of living in a small apartment in the capital because of what society will say but is perfectly okay with living with wealth acquired by deception as if the society will not talk about how they all of a sudden got money lol
Daria Saviczkaia Chapter 44 — Paragraph 52"We would appreciate it if Miss Somerset could serve as a witness on our side."
At first I thought her mother wanted to marry her off, but it turns out it’s this… I don’t even know which would’ve been better.
- Chrysoprase Chapter 44 — Paragraph 30
"Jacqueline, show some manners to the gentleman."
literally what wrong did she say, this is 100x better than how she dealt with evan lol
