When I Let Go of Obsession, I Got Obsessed (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 18
Grand Duke Montaner, Damien Illizer.
He was the man who had ruled the empire for ten years in place of the deceased emperor and the vanished crown prince—technically only a grand duke, yet in practice no different from an emperor.
But now, after one more season passed, he would become emperor not only in practice but also in name.
For according to the imperial law of Luzencia, if a successor remained missing for ten full years, they were legally presumed dead, and the throne automatically passed to the next heir in line.
In any case, such an important figure had come to visit Duke Bert’s household.
Though he and Duke Bert maintained close political ties, they also got along well personally. Thus, he occasionally slipped away from the palace to clear his head, dropping by for a drink or a game of cards with the duke—and today happened to be one of those days.
Upon casually visiting the house, he was both startled and delighted to find an old friend there.
“Why, who might this be? Claire Fernand… no, Marchioness Berium, isn’t it?”
“Just call me Claire, Your Highness.”
Madame Berium was equally overjoyed. The two exchanged a light embrace and savored their brief reunion.
The Duchess of Bert, who had been flustered and apologetic over her husband’s sudden absence, let out a relieved sigh.
She then ushered the two, who hadn’t yet finished their reunion, into the duke’s private reception room.
“His Grace said he’ll return shortly, so please wait here for just a moment, Your Highness.”
“Don’t worry. Please tell Francis he may take his time returning. Marchioness Berium—no, Claire here will keep me company. Isn’t that right?”
“Of course! I intended to stick around until you chased me away, hehe.”
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!!!
Gosh, I hate this mother of female lead. What the heck she think she is. How artificial. I wish to see her fall badly.
