They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System -
Chapter 237 - 237 Office Gossip
Chapter 237: Office Gossip Chapter 237: Office Gossip Of course, she didn’t forget to sprinkle in some delightfully nasty words about Nnenna.
After all, everyone in their noble circle knew how much Ebere despised her so called sister.
They had all witnessed it firsthand at the Grand Ball.
And as loyal supporters, they hated Nnenna too, without even knowing her.
While the arrogant young lady waited for Ebere’s reply, she continued her shopping, occasionally glancing toward the back of the shop.
She was determined to get a picture of the second princess as soon as she came out.
The more evidence she had, the better, especially if the first princess ever needed it to humiliate her sister.
Meanwhile, at the back of the shop, Nnenna unknowingly stumbled upon an interesting conversation.
Three ladies were deep in discussion, so engrossed that they didn’t notice her standing just behind them.
“I saw the news!
Did you?” one of them whispered excitedly.
“At first, I thought it was just a rumor, but now it seems true.
All those things Buchi used to say… I thought he was just hyping things up.
But to think he was actually in love with her!” “Right?
And here I was, thinking he would never settle down.
But he’s engaged to the first princess of Purlit!” Nnenna blinked.
First princess of Purlit?
“I always doubted he would marry someone from the entertainment industry,” another lady added.
“I guess I was right.
But honestly, it’s not a bad match.
I checked her background, and she seems like a really good person, definitely fit for Buchi.” “Yes, she does,” the woman beside her agreed with a nod.
“But I can’t help feeling disappointed,” one of the girls sighed dramatically.
“The person marrying him isn’t me.
I spent so many years fantasizing that we would end up together, have kids, and live happily ever after… Wishful thinking, I know, but it still hurts to face reality.” The other girl beside her let out a deep sigh.
“Yeah… it stings.” A loud scoff interrupted their moment of sadness.
“Only idiots like you two would fangirl over someone like Buchi,” the third girl snapped.
“You can’t even compare him to our kingdom’s Big Brother Williams!
Now he’s the real deal.” The first two girls frowned.
“What do you even mean by that?
Buchi is amazing!” “Amazing?” the third girl laughed bitterly.
“You’re all going to be so disappointed when the truth comes out.
Sure, he’s talented, I’ll give him that, but his character?
Awful.
I have a friend who works at the hospital, and she told me something shocking.” She leaned in, lowering her voice for emphasis.
“Apparently, months ago, he visited a girl at the hospital.
My friend was there, and she said he seemed to hate the girl, like he didn’t want her to get treatment, though he didn’t say it outright.
Back then, my friend wasn’t sure who the girl was, but after she was officially introduced in the media as the second princess, everything clicked.
That girl was his sister!
And he treated her like that?” The first two gasped.
“What?!
No way!” “Yes, way.” The third girl folded her arms.
“I mean, she is adopted, but so what?
If he can treat his own sister like trash, how do you think he’ll treat his wife?” Her words hit the others like a slap, their dreamy expressions faltering for a moment then their faces hardened.
“Chinwa, your words can only be taken with a pinch of salt.
From day one, you’ve never liked him.
Of course, you would find a reason to bring him down,” one of the girls scoffed.
“Why should we believe you?
Do you even have any evidence?” Chinwa “…” Chinwa felt her frustration rise.
It was always the same.
Every time there was a rumor about the nation’s prince, they defended him blindly.
It didn’t matter if there were accusations against him.
It didn’t matter if proof surfaced.
His fans would go to war, on the internet and even in real life, to shield him.
But this time, she wasn’t lying.
“Guys, I’m actually telling the truth this time,” she said firmly.
The second girl folded her arms.
“I’m glad you said this time, because it means you haven’t been telling the truth in the past.
So why should we trust you now?” “Exactly,” the first girl added.
“You’ve always had a problem with Buchi.
Why would we believe anything you say about him?” Chinwa rolled her eyes, realizing there was no point in arguing.
“Fine.
Believe whatever you want.
But I know I’m right.
And in my opinion, your precious Buchi is nothing but a horrible person.” She was about to let it go, but then a smirk crossed her lips.
“Oh, but there’s something else you should know.” That caught their attention.
“My friend from abroad, she lives in Purlit, told me that there’s been a lot of political unrest.
The king’s younger brother seems to be making moves to overthrow him.” She paused, letting the tension build before dropping the final bomb.
“And if that happens… it means your nation’s prince might not get to marry the love of his life after all.” She leaned back, watching the shock settle on their faces, her smirk widening.
“What?
What do you mean?” the first girl demanded, her voice rising.
“Chinwa, this is just another one of your lies!
There’s no way our prince will be affected by something like that.
Even if his fiancée’s father loses the throne, it won’t change anything!” Chinwa smirked, tilting her head.
“Oh, Lillian…
you really don’t know how royal politics work, do you?” Lillian’s confidence wavered.
Chinwa leaned in, enjoying the effect of her words.
“Let me spell it out for you.
Every royal marriage is meant to strengthen the kingdom.
If Ruth’s father loses the throne, then she’s no longer a valuable political asset.
And if she’s not useful to the kingdom…” Chinwa trailed off dramatically, then shrugged.
“Well, let’s just say I wouldn’t be so sure about that wedding happening.” ————————————————— Guys, everything is now good here!
Don’t know if anyone has noticed, but I’m uploading all the chapters I missed in the past few days like I promised.
This is the second to the last one.
I really appreciate your patience 🙏
