The Grand Temptation (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 43
I wanted to get up from my seat right away and follow him. I wanted to throw my arms around him and confess that it was all a lie. But I couldn’t.
Yuli clenched both fists and took a deep breath into her lungs. Yet, the suffocating feeling didn’t ease at all.
“Even if it’s hard now, it’ll soon be alright.”
“I wish that were true.”
Yuli replied coldly and rose from her seat. If she stayed sitting beside Assemblyman Chae any longer, she felt she’d suffocate. He probably didn’t want her beside him either.
She thought she understood now why Assemblyman Chae hated her so much. Because she was his first daughter, the spitting image of his deceased wife. Every time he saw Yuli—so uncannily resembling his late wife—an uncontrollable hatred and resentment must have grown within him.
Could it be that mother and daughter truly shared such a fate?
An unwanted marriage. A love she could only watch from afar.
No tears came. She didn’t even deserve to cry.
Yuli lifted her head and gazed up at the dark night sky. Ever since learning that other hidden truth, her hope had shattered into pieces. The days when she’d briefly dared to dream of happiness now felt impossibly distant.
That day, in the study, Assemblyman Chae had shown Yuli the last card he held in his hand.
[This is the timeline separator]
A few days earlier, in the study.
“That’s proof your dead mother committed adultery.”
Assemblyman Chae spoke in a cold voice to Yuli, who held the photograph with a puzzled expression.
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!!!
