The Terminally-Ill Duke Clings to Me Every Night (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 118
Leah swallowed a hollow laugh as she looked at the hand extended before her.
‘A choice?’
She couldn’t understand Ilay’s obsession with her, even in this situation. No—she didn’t even want to understand.
Wasn’t it the Emperor himself who had driven not only Akia but even her to the very edge of a cliff?
And now, after all that, he dared ask her to take his hand?
When she showed no sign of movement, Ilay this time leaned forward.
“If you so much as utter a word, your father won’t escape death. And that’s not all—it would take but a moment for House Bellarus to be branded traitors.”
He met Leah’s gaze and flashed a mad, twisted smile.
“But if you become mine, everything changes. Your family’s dishonor—and even your father—will be spared.”
Ilay fixed his eyes on Leah, pressing her for an answer.
No matter that she was now Duchess Haideorn—they had never held a proper wedding ceremony.
A marriage like theirs could easily be annulled by imperial decree, couldn’t it?
The woman standing before him was the one who had cured Duke Haideorn when every physician in the palace had given up.
Leah would fix the medicine’s side effects. If he could just secure this woman, it would be no different from claiming the world itself.
“Well?”

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!!!
