Who Spent the Night with the Tower Master (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 18
Though Claire choked back tears from shame, Gibnen didn’t so much as flinch. Instead, Ryan and the baroness, who had come out wondering what the commotion was about, could only stare at the two in embarrassment.
Seeing the baroness standing beside Ryan, Gibnen spoke to him with a sneer.
“The one who went shopping with your eldest daughter seems to have returned.”
“…Hmm.”
“You really ought to pay more attention to your daughter’s upbringing. I heard you favored your second daughter especially, yet she’s been remarkably rude. I’ll let it slide this time, but if she ever insults my wife again, I won’t stand idly by.”
Claire finally lost her temper and burst into tears.
Flustered, the baroness wrapped her arms around Claire, while Ryan, struggling to suppress his boiling rage, saw Gibnen out.
“Please take care on your way.”
Long after he left, Claire’s wailing and Ryan’s scolding continued to echo loudly through the mansion.

As always, they diagnosed it as natural deterioration due to aging.
Upon hearing this, Rocher Ermeintz, the eldest son and heir of House Ermeintz, flew into a rage and berated the physicians.
“How can someone’s health deteriorate this drastically in an instant! What exactly are you people even doing!”
“We’re doing our best, but… the body’s frailty from aging is something no human can defy.”

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!!!
