The Secret Affairs of the Fake Duke Couple (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 43
The cabin near the artificial lake was a wooden hut built as a resting spot for brief breaks during swimming.
Nestled where the lake’s shimmering waters met the verdant forest, the cabin looked as if it belonged in a watercolor painting.
Regardless of the discomfort and dampness caused by the rain, the scenery alone was undeniably picturesque.
Cain set Jane down under a spot sheltered from the rain, felt along the window frame, found the key, and opened the cabin door.
“Are you allowed to tell me where you keep the key?”
Jane asked, and Cain shrugged his shoulders.
“Will you even come here again?”
Jane fell silent. Cain was right. This place belonged to the Hastings family—for their people and guests.
As Duchess, Jane would only stay for a year, and within that time, she doubted she’d return here; afterward, she wouldn’t even have the right to visit.
Cain went inside, opened a window, and turned back to Jane. When she barely managed to place one foot forward, gripping the wall for support, he let out a heavy sigh.
“Just ask for help. Don’t be stubborn.”
“I’m fine. I can walk this much.”
The distance from where he’d set her down to inside the cabin wasn’t far at all—just a few steps.
“If you want to hobble into our wedding ceremony on crutches, be my guest.”
Could walking just a few steps really strain her ankle that badly?
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!!!
A drunk Jane is a bold Jane. Hopefully she remembers when the alcohol wears off.
Ahhh, it seems they’re going to let their bodies do the talking.
