The Duke's Flower is Precarious (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 18
“Ask for a reward, you say…?” Aidel fell into brief contemplation at the man’s sudden request.
“What kind of reward would you like? Actually, I was planning to give you a special bonus.”
The man gently released her hand and rose to his feet.
“Hmm… Rather than money… I’d prefer something else.”
“Go ahead and say it. If it’s possible, I’ll give you what you want.”
After stroking his chin for a moment, the man suddenly smiled meaningfully, as if recalling something.
“Then… would you mind brewing me a cup of tea? With those hands of yours, personally.”
“Tea…?”
“There’s nothing in this world more precious than tea brewed by a beautiful lady.”
Aidel slowly nodded, her expression perplexed. She found it strange that he valued a cup of tea more than money…
She took his words at face value—that he simply wished to be served tea—and found his behavior genuinely curious.
Meanwhile, Shade—the man disguised as a gardener—was briefly stunned by her unexpected reaction, his smile freezing at the corners of his lips.
‘Most women usually flutter at such a suggestion…’
Whenever he hinted to a woman that he’d like her to serve him tea in return for his efforts, they typically blushed and shyly agreed, understanding his hidden intention—to share an intimate tea time together.
Yet the face of the future Grand Duchess showed only clear bewilderment—none of the emotions Shade had anticipated.
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!!!
Can’t wait for second prince to die . How dare he touch grand Duchess with his filthy hand.
I hope Kareon kills first prince . But maybe that’s not going to happen because of diplomatic relations between kingdoms. If at that moment aidel would have remained unconscious ,second prince definitely would have died .It’s unfortunate , that bastard should have died on spot.
I am blushing even though I don’t know what withdrawal symptoms is.
