They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System -
Chapter 371: Accusing Me of Sneaking In??
Chapter 371: Accusing Me of Sneaking In??
“No thank you,” Nnenna replied dryly. Then, more firmly, “Now shoo. I need some peace.”
Jane’s expression twisted in fury. She had already decided to let go of her grudge, on the condition that she never had to see Nnenna again.
And yet here she was, sneaking into a royal coronation, looking like she belonged, eating desserts without a care in the world.
Jane couldn’t stand her!
“I’m warning you, for your own good!” Jane’s voice suddenly rose, loud enough to turn heads nearby. “I’m only being kind right now, but you better leave before it’s too late. I’ll call the guards on you!”
She pointed dramatically, face flushed with indignation.
“This isn’t a place someone like you can just be! Do you even understand? This is a royal coronation, a once in a generation event! You think you can just walk in and act like you belong?”
People began to murmur, eyes darting between the two girls. Jane’s voice had drawn too much attention.
“Who is she yelling at?”
“Wait, did someone sneak in?”
“How did they even get past the palace security?”
Whispers rippled through the crowd, a mix of confusion and curiosity. Some were skeptical, after all, no ordinary person could just waltz into a place crawling with palace guards and top-tier security. But Jane’s certainty made them pause.
Still… something didn’t add up.
The girl she was shouting at, quiet, composed, dressed with understated elegance, looked more at home here than Jane did. The way she stood, the way she held her dessert plate with such poise… it didn’t match Jane’s loud, self righteous energy.
Yet no one stepped in.
Nnenna frowned, staring at the unfolding scene. Just who does this girl think she is? And more importantly, what was she even doing here?
Jane’s reaction was so over the top, it didn’t make sense.
Did Manager Abel really have that much influence? Enough to get into this high level event and bring his sister along?
Nnenna wouldn’t be surprised if he got an invitation, he was smart and capable. But bringing Jane too? That had to be a superior invitation. Possibly even a royal endorsement. Still, Nnenna said nothing to Jane, letting her continue her outburst.
The crowd was just about to stir, ready to side with Jane and drive out whoever she was shouting at, until they realized who she was shouting at.
The second princess of Lionara.
Gasps fluttered through the hall like birds taking flight. Mouths dropped open. She was the one Jane was accusing of sneaking in?
They froze in shock.
“She really has guts,” someone muttered.
“Is she insane?” another whispered.
“You can’t talk to royalty like that…”
But no one dared step in. They watched, stunned, as Jane’s voice grew louder, her movements more frantic. She was seconds away from calling the guards when
“Surely, miss, you can calm down a bit?”
A calm voice cut through the tension like a soft blade. A young woman stepped between them, her presence composed and graceful.
Nnenna blinked.
That face…
Wasn’t that the girl from the market? The one who had fallen off her wild horse, but miraculously stood up without a scratch?
What was she doing here?
The girl offered a small smile, and Nnenna took in the fine embroidery on her gown, the subtle jewelry, the smooth air of someone raised with etiquette and confidence.
She must be a noble too, Nnenna concluded
The young noble lady stepped forward swiftly, her pale lavender gown swishing with every step. She stood between Jane and Nnenna with a composed yet firm expression.
“Miss, please calm down,” she said, her voice gentle but commanding. “You’re mistaken. The person you’re yelling at… is the second princess of Lionara.”
The murmurs around them deepened. A few people gasped aloud.
Jane scoffed, folding her arms. “Second princess? Hah! Don’t be fooled! This girl’s just pretending. I know her. Her name is Nnenna, and she’s no royal. I knew her back when she—”
“That’s enough,” the noble girl cut in sharply, eyes narrowing. “You’re not only making a scene, you’re embarrassing yourself. She is Princess Nnenna. Recognized and adopted publicly by the late King and the royal family. I was there.”
Jane’s face darkened. “Don’t try to cover for her! Guards!” she shouted, waving her hand.
Heads turned.
A pair of guards appeared instantly, their golden trimmed uniforms flashing under the grand chandelier lights. One of them stepped forward, it was Head Division Guard Kale, a stern, experienced man known for his precision and discipline.
He looked at Jane with a frown. “What seems to be the problem?”
“That girl is an imposter!” Jane snapped, pointing directly at Nnenna. “She’s not supposed to be here. Arrest her before she escapes!”
Kale’s brows furrowed. He looked at Nnenna… then blinked. The next moment, his back straightened, and he instinctively saluted.
“Second Princess…” he said with disbelief. “This woman’s accusing you of being an imposter?”
Before Nnenna could respond, a cold voice echoed through the grand hall, chilling the air.
“I didn’t know just anyone could walk into my castle and start giving orders.”
The temperature in the room dropped a few degrees.
Gasps shot through the crowd like lightning.
At the top of the stairs stood Somto, the Crown Prince of Lionara, fully dressed in his ceremonial attire, sharp and imposing like a lion ready to strike. His gaze was icy as it bore into Jane. Even the shadows seemed to shrink from his presence.
The comment section exploded instantly
@CakeQueen4eva: Wait wait WAIT. What’s happening?! Who’s the fake?
@HaranGirl2003: That girl in pink is accusing the second princess? LMAOOOO. Bold of her.
@TrueLionFan: Bro that is Princess Nnenna. I saw her at the Marka fight livestream. This chick is suicidal to challenge the fighting god.
@NobleWifeDreams: Somto’s voice just made my screen freeze. Someone hold me.
@CupcakeWarrior95: I SWEAR I would pass out if that man looked at me like that. RIP girl or whatever her name is.
