The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 118
“Um… Ellen.”
Ellen gently replied to the young lady who called her with a kind face, as if she couldn’t help but smile.
“Yes, Miss Catherine.”
This form of address had been insisted upon by Catherine herself. She claimed she wasn’t anything special and wanted to be close to Ellen.
She said Ellen’s kindness reminded her of her late mother from childhood.
Those words were exactly what Ellen had heard long ago—from someone now dead.
Catherine entered the small sitting room Ellen used for rest without invitation, sat across from her with a bashful smile, and only then asked as if suddenly remembering.
“I came because I was bored—would that be alright? Am I interrupting you?”
“Of course not, Miss Catherine.”
Catherine giggled sweetly once more and began chattering away about everything she’d done that day.
“The potato soup this morning was delicious. I wanted to thank the head chef, but I don’t want to bother them if I go into the kitchen. Also…”
Ordinary, unremarkable daily chatter. The slight furrowing of one eyebrow when deep in thought.
Everything about her astonishingly resembled Ellen’s former mistress, and it pained Ellen deeply. Long-buried emotions, carefully tucked away during her busy days, surged as freshly as if awakened just yesterday.
‘After all…’
She had been lost far too suddenly—a person bright, warm, and full of vitality like summer itself.
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!!!
The male lead being so proud of his wife is honestly adorable, even when he gets jealous.
And the female lead is so elegant and beautiful—I can’t wait to see this scene illustrated
Haha, did the ML really just say that to the FL? He’s so cute when he gets a little jealous.
Can’t wait for next chapter
The ML is so considerate of his wife. He treats her with so much care and gentleness, even when she doesn’t say a word—he just understands her. He’s honestly so perfect, I can’t 😭
I really hope the FL can overcome these painful feelings soon. I can’t bear to watch her suffer this much. 💔
