Trapped in the Mad Duke's Snare (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 43
It was the very moment Adeline stepped deeper into the cave, startled by the unnervingly loud clap of thunder.
A deafening roar—utterly unlike the sound she’d just heard—shook the ground and the entire cave began trembling violently.
Amid the quake-like tremors, Adeline staggered dizzily, utterly disoriented.
“What—what’s going on!”
Through her swaying vision, Adeline saw the entrance of the cave blocked by cascading earth and rubble.
It was a landslide. By the time she regained her senses, everything around her had already plunged into pitch darkness.
“Ha… You’ve got to be kidding me. Right?”
Adeline couldn’t believe her own eyes.
Just moments ago, there had clearly been an entrance—but now it was completely sealed by a solid heap of earth.
Stumbling forward in the darkness, Adeline tripped over debris and fell.
Though her knee stung from the wound, she didn’t even have the composure to tend to it.

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!!!

Since it was uncertain whether she’d consent if she knew the truth, Cassis decid
It seems neither one understands love. I guess that is why they are both so tormented and confused. I wish we knew more of the Duke’s background.
- Aelthia Chapter 53 — Paragraph 16
She had no idea what awaited her ahead.
When are these two going to ever learn to be honest and open to eachother?
- Aelthia Chapter 58 — Paragraph 79
Becky pointed at the gleaming éclair.
So all should be forgiven for the convenience of third parties? The Duke definitely needs to apologize with words this time!

How vile and despicable he is! Adeline is innocent and kind, she didn’t leave him alone, and he’s a despicable person who misunderstands her.
Hahaha, the fastest marriage in the world! What is this? As if he didn’t see her a moment ago!
You filthy crown prince, we’ll see who laughs last when you see who married the one you were laughing at, you filthy bastard. May you rot in hell.
