The Tyrant's Terminally-Ill Childhood Friend (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 68
It was akin to the desire of an explorer who had just discovered the world’s most precious gem—greed born of certainty, after wandering endlessly through a cave, that immense treasure lay hidden within. Somehow, only by claiming it for herself could she quench this thirst.
Naturally, that desire turned into envy toward the one who held the gem.
‘The only special thing about Lady Anette is that she occupies His Majesty’s side.’
Anyone could do that. If she herself had been in that place, she felt she too could have claimed that affection.
‘How truly detestable… to monopolize His Majesty’s affection without even loving him.’
Klech didn’t know Anette well, but there was one thing she was certain of: the woman did not love the Emperor. At the very least, she couldn’t possibly love him more than Klech did. Klech herself loved the Emperor most deeply and had longed for his love the longest—so why did Anette sit in that seat, hoarding all of his affection?
If only Anette had loved the Emperor as much as she did, Klech might have even cheered on their love.
‘It’s truly unfortunate for His Majesty to love such a woman.’
It was a universal truth, regardless of status or person, that one finds happiness only with someone who loves them in return. Thus, Klech naturally believed that only she, who loved the Emperor, could make him happy.
Yet there was one thing Klech did not know. Even if Anette had visibly loved the Emperor, Klech would never have believed that her love could possibly match her own. And she also didn’t realize that, no matter what happened, she would inevitably come to see Anette’s very existence as unjust.
Klech was simply blinded by love and parched by a desire she’d never felt before.
Having never lacked anything in her life, Klech lived under the illusion that everything— even another’s heart—could become hers.
Crunch. Klech’s dance card crumpled hopelessly in her hand. Just then, a young man who had been hovering near her stepped forward and spoke cautiously.
“Lady Klech, if it’s not too much trouble, might I request a dance…?”
“Oh.”

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!!!
