Chapter 194: 0.0001% Chance Chapter 194: 0.0001% Chance There was not even a 0.0001% chance that Carl had been referring to her, someone he had barely spoken to since arriving.

But Ebere, caught up in her emotions, refused to acknowledge this.

She kept complaining, her voice rising with frustration.

“We have to do something about this, Mom!

We have to!” she insisted, her hands clenching into fists.

“What is she trying to prove?

That she’s better than us?

That she’s better than my big brothers too??” The moment those words left her lips, Queen Chioma’s expression darkened further.

It wasn’t just about Ebere’s humiliation or her lost opportunity to shine, no, it was bigger than that.

The thought that even her sons, the princes of Lionara, were now being overshadowed by Nnenna was something she could not tolerate.

On a normal day, it wouldn’t have mattered who was stronger.

But Nnenna wasn’t her blood.

She was adopted.

And no matter how long she had been part of this family, Queen Chioma was not willing to watch someone she had not birthed rise above the children she had.

Her grip tightened on Ebere’s shoulders as she spoke, her voice cold and deliberate.

“You are right, my daughter.

We cannot allow this to continue.” This was getting out of hand.

Queen Chioma had been patient, waiting, watching, but it was time to take action.

Initially, she hadn’t planned to go this far, but now, she had no choice.

The king would be furious if he ever found out.

But he wouldn’t….He wouldn’t be furious at her if he didn’t even know it was her.

Arthur stood in his dimly lit room, ready to take his night bath before diving into his work.

The day had been long, but his mind was sharper than ever.

Just as he reached for his robe, his phone buzzed.

His gaze flicked to the screen, uninterested at first.

But the moment he saw the name flashing on it, his demeanor changed.

He picked up immediately.

The voice on the other end was urgent.

Too urgent.
