Chapter 153: Revelations 2 Chapter 153: Revelations 2 Carl, of course, could hear the whispers, but he didn’t care.

He never did.

His concern was singular, his purpose unwavering.

He finally reached Ebere, who looked down shyly, a pleased blush dusting her cheeks.

‘He’s here.’ Her thoughts raced.

She had started to worry when none of the princes had asked to accompany her for the first dance.

Had something been wrong with her?

But now, now it seemed things had worked out in her favor.

She lifted her gaze, her voice honeyed as she spoke.

“How may I help you, Prince Carl?” But he didn’t even look at her.

“Move.” The word was clipped, emotionless.

Ebere “…” Ebere stiffened, her body locking in place.

Her mind reeled, confusion flooding in.

The coldness of his tone, the absolute indifference, it was like she wasn’t even standing there.

The guests “…” The murmurs around them turned into gasps.

And then, without another glance, Carl stepped past her.

His destination had never changed.

Prince Carl finally reached where Nnenna stood.

She looked up at him silently, her expression unreadable.

He arched a brow.

“What?

Have you forgotten how to greet your big brother Ikenna?” Then, before anyone could react, he pulled her into a firm embrace.

Gasps rippled through the crowd.

“Big brother?!” The whispers grew frantic.

She knew Prince Carl?!

It was impossible.

The guests were still trying to wrap their minds around this revelation when Nnenna finally spoke, her voice cold and steady.

“Should I call you Big Brother Carl…
