Saved Him, Now I'm Obsessed (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 18
Then why doesn’t Ian trust the Emperor and Empress? Normally, when a married couple has a strong relationship, their bond with their children should be good as well.
Yet Ian, despite being the undisputed Crown Prince, gave the impression of being neglected. And for good reason—when he was only six years old and fell ill, neither his mother nor his father was by his side.
Even afterward, while he was taking medicine, his parents didn’t seem to show any concern. On the contrary, Ian appeared desperately eager to hide his symptoms from them.
So much so that he worried about his own life. Even if the Emperor harbored resentment toward the shamans of the Stefan Kingdom, I still doubted he would openly direct that resentment toward his own son upon learning the truth.
“There was something like this before.”
“What was it?”
“When Her Imperial Majesty the Empress first appeared in high society, everyone ignored her.”
“They ignored her even though she was the Empress?”
“Apparently, because her family background was so humble that she could hardly even be considered nobility when she married His Imperial Majesty the Emperor. People widely claimed the Emperor would soon tire of her and bring in another lover.”
“That’s awful.”
“Anyway, because that sort of atmosphere had already spread, Her Imperial Majesty the Empress received subtle contempt. And that contempt only intensified when…”
Suddenly, Ileina glanced around her surroundings, as if something terrible would happen if anyone overheard them—even though only the two of us were in the garden. She lowered her voice as much as possible and whispered.
“There were rumors circulating that Crown Prince Ian and Prince Daniel weren’t the Emperor’s children, but rather the offspring of another man.”
I was already somewhat aware of this story. In fact, I’d suspected that one reason Ian was so sensitive about his eye color might be because questions about his parentage had once surfaced.
“Apparently, part of the reason was that Her Imperial Majesty the Empress never publicly revealed her pregnancy. Furthermore, since His Imperial Majesty the Emperor had been away from the palace during the time she supposedly conceived, people reasoned the two princes couldn’t possibly be his biological children.”

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!!!
