Trapped in the Mad Duke's Snare (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 118
Adeline was so busy she didn’t even notice how the day passed.
Early in the morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, gowns and jewels for the coronation began flooding into the Empress’s quarters.
Even the documents listing all the necessary items for the Empress’s coronation arrived.
Just as Cassis practically lived in his study, Adeline found her days increasingly hectic with her first official duties as Empress.
Yet, her heart was calmer than ever before.
Night fell.
“Your Majesty, we shall take our leave now. Please rest well.”
Becky and the other maids finished arranging Adeline’s bedding, bowed, and withdrew.
Only after the door closed and she was alone did Adeline finally receive a rest that wasn’t truly rest.
‘My dear, you must be tired too.’

Adeline gently stroked her belly and looked around the Empress’s quarters.
The palace, which had bustled all day with maids and servants, had finally grown quiet as night arrived.
She took a deep breath and slowly exhaled.
A pleasant fragrance brushed past her nose—subtle scented candles, said to aid sleep, filled the room with their gentle aroma.

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!!!
