They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System
Chapter 372: Finally Found You

Chapter 372: Finally Found You

@OldManWatcher88: BACK IN MY DAY, you would be exiled for this kinda nonsense.

@AstroPrince77: Somto said not in my house, LOL. Who gave this girl an invite??

@AltanFanInDisguise: Someone pls tell me this is scripted. The drama is insane.

@MangoMadness: I came for the coronation, stayed for the telenovela.

@SeunghoStan321: This is better than the Roxurun drama last year. I’m SCREAMINGGGGG.

The room was frozen in time.

All eyes turned toward Somto as he descended the steps with the slow, confident stride of a man used to command.

His ceremonial coat, lined with midnight blue velvet and stitched in gold thread, swept slightly with each step. His crown gleamed under the chandeliers like it carried the sun itself.

But he didn’t look at the crowd.

He didn’t even glance at Jane.

His eyes were locked on one person, and one person only.

Nnenna.

She stood still, the commotion around her fading to a dull hum as those sharp, accusing eyes pierced into her like a blade. She dropped her gaze immediately, refusing to meet him.

Her hand tightened slightly around her plate of cake. It was ridiculous, how did he manage to look angry and majestic at the same time?

Jane, misreading the entire atmosphere, beamed.

“Your Highness!” she greeted brightly, stepping forward like they were old acquaintances. “I’m so sorry you had to witness this chaos. I was just doing my duty and protecting the integrity of your coronation—”

Somto didn’t even blink.

He didn’t look at her.

He spoke.

“Shut up.”

The room gasped.

Jane blinked as if slapped.

“I… I beg your pardon?” she stammered, looking around as if someone else might confirm that she misheard.

Somto finally tore his gaze away from Nnenna to face her, his stare flat and unbothered.

“I said shut up,” he repeated, coldly.

The music had stopped. Even the livestream’s audio was dead silent except for distant clinks of glass.

“Remove her,” Somto instructed calmly, nodding to Kale.

Jane’s face lit up.

Finally! Justice!

She smiled smugly, lifting her chin toward Nnenna as the guards stepped forward.

“That’s right. Take her out. Pretending to be a princess, shameless—”

But instead of grabbing Nnenna…

The guards reached for Jane.

One held her arm firmly, the other stepped behind her.

“Wha—what are you doing?!” she shrieked.

“You’ve caused a disruption at a royal event and insulted a member of the royal family,” Kale stated matter of factly. “You’ll be escorted out immediately.”

The smug look melted off Jane’s face so fast it was almost comical.

“Wait—ME?! I was helping—SHE’S the one pretending! I’m not— You’ve got the wrong—LET GO OF ME!”

People in the comment section were feeding on this scene like it was a bag of melon seeds.

@NotJaneDoe: NAH SHE REALLY THOUGHT SHE WON.

@Tiger45: “Shut up” in 4K HD. I screamed. I screamed.

@RoyalSpiceSauce: Bro. He said SHUT. UP. My whole soul LEFT.

@CakeQueen4eva: And she smiled like it was going her way. Girl, be serious.

@SomtoWifePending: He didn’t even look at her until she got annoying. Cold KING energy.

@DramaGoddess3000: NOT HER GETTING ESCORTED OUT. She’s gonna cry in the hovercar.

@OfficialLionaraFan: Imagine calling a real princess a fake one… on LIVESTREAM… during a coronation… to the future KING’S FACE???

@PrincessEnergy7: This whole event is giving K drama meets royal scandal and I’m eating it UP.

@AltanSideSpy: I almost feel bad for Jane. But then I remember she embarrassed herself globally.

@TeaSnatcher101: Somebody tell her to deactivate her social media NOW.

Jane’s eyes widened in disbelief as the guards gripped her arms and began lifting her off the ground.

The shocked whispers around the hall grew louder, everyone could see the truth unfolding. More and more eyes turned cold, shooting her scornful looks. The mask of doubt was slipping: Nnenna was truly the second princess.

Just then, Abel and Obinna pushed through the crowd, their faces sharp with concern. Abel looked ready to clash with the guards immediately, but Obinna held him back with a firm hand.

Jane spotted Abel, shook the guards off as they were distracted and immediately went closer to Abel “Elder brother, help me.”

Obinna’s gaze flickered to Nnenna, then back to the guards. “Wait,” he said calmly but firmly. “Tell me what happened first.”

As the story unfolded, Obinna’s expression shifted from curiosity to quiet resolve. He surprised Nnenna and the rest of the family who were slowly approaching the scene, when he didn’t scold Nnenna or insult her.

Nnenna’s heart skipped as she wondered why.

Obinna just gave her a brief glance then sent Somto a silent pleading look. Somto remembered what Nnenna had done for him before she left for Purlit, a debt he wouldn’t forget.

She probably didn’t even know this. Though he didn’t say it aloud, it was clear to him why he wasn’t hostile to her right now.

Because of Obinna’s plead and Somto giving him face since they were siblings, the tension eased, and Abel was allowed to escort Jane out instead of her being arrested. Jane’s scared but furious gaze followed Nnenna, she was powerless now.

@DramaDetector: OMG that girl just got carried off! The look on her face was priceless!

@ObinnaFanClub: Prince Obinna is so gentle!

@PrincessPowerMoves: This is NOT your average coronation. Family love is REAL. My brother’s friend would definitely be arrested if he messed with my coronation talk less of his sister.

@ShadeThrower88: Jane acting like she owns the place then getting booted? Classic.

@RoyalSpillTea: CEO Abel looking like a bodyguard AND a bouncer. This coronation got everything.

@ConfusedOnlooker: So… Jane was wrong all along? Nnenna really the princess? This plot twist tho.

@LaughingLlama: Jane’s face when she got lifted off the ground had me dead.

@ChatQueen101: Watching this livestream is better than any reality TV. Can’t wait for what’s next!

As Abel led Jane away, the murmurs shifted into whispers of approval and surprise. Nnenna breathed in deeply, still surprised at Obinna’s unexpected lack of insults for her. The room’s tension slowly gave way to cautious respect.
