The Credentials of a Couple (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 118
It’s about time he should be arriving.
I paused mid-flip through the documents and quickly checked the clock. Cheshire had already left, so news should start coming in soon.
Hearing loud footsteps approaching from afar, I turned my head toward the door.
Without any warning, the door burst open, and in stormed a group of armed knights, their armor and capes emblazoned with the imperial crest.
“I apologize, Marchioness Crayton.”
“What warrants such a dramatic entrance?”
“By His Majesty’s command.”
The only knight wearing a crimson cape stepped forward and untied the seal on the letter right before me. Though I couldn’t read the contents from my distance, I could easily guess what it said.
No matter how densely written the letter might be, its essential message could always be summarized in a single sentence.
“By imperial law, we are here to arrest the criminal Marquess Bake Crayton.”
Even as he spoke, his darting eyes swept every corner of the room, searching desperately for any trace of Bake.
Yet I calmly signed the document as if nothing were amiss.
“Who exactly is this Marquess Crayton you speak of? My husband is already dead.”
“We have verified reports that Marchioness Crayton had contact with Marquess Crayton.”
“But His Majesty himself acknowledged my husband’s death.”

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!!!
