Wishing My Husband Dead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 43
Of course, it was nowhere near Leonard’s original body, but Maximilian was still a top-tier mage, one of the best in the Magic Association. In Craig’s current body—virtually powerless—he stood no chance against him.
Unlike Leonard, who was barely managing to defend himself, Maximilian kept launching attacks while yawning as if utterly bored.
“I’ll give you credit for that much. But this is getting dull—let’s wrap it up.”
At that moment, Leonard quickly reached for the pouch tied to his left waistband.
Maximilian instantly pinned it down with his magic—a direct contest of strength between mages.
Leonard struggled to break free using his own magic, but when their powers clashed head-on, he was clearly outmatched.
“Ghk.”
In one swift motion, Maximilian snatched the pouch and checked the holy artifacts inside.
“Relying on such measly holy relics? Brother, you’ve really hit rock bottom. Let me see… Tears of the Saintess and Breath of the Crimson Dragon. Where on earth did you get these?”
“Give them back!”
Leonard desperately reached out his hand, but Maximilian easily sidestepped him. Then, tauntingly, he dangled the pouch by its string, spinning it right before Leonard’s eyes.
“To think my brother would become so weak and pathetic—it’s almost a shame for me to see this alone.”
“I won’t let you get away with this, Maximilian!”
“Won’t let me? And what exactly can you do, brother?”
“You—ghk!”
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!!!
Fun chapter. The relationship between all of them is heartwarming.
Laughed out loud reading this, Lord Leonard is very jealous of the closeness of his own student and friend 😭
They are so cute together I can’t take it anymore <3 love the dynamic
