Chapter 215: Unwanted Engagements Chapter 215: Unwanted Engagements “Does she really think staying silent will make the truth disappear?” A few other nobles chuckled, nodding in agreement.

But not everyone was enjoying the moment.

Anya, standing at the side, watched the scene unfold with a frown.

Unlike the others, she wasn’t celebrating Nnenna’s supposed downfall.

She knew what it was like to lose something, or someone, you desperately wanted.

Even though she had once been confident in her position, it was clear that Arthur had been drawn to Nnenna instead.

And now, Arthur was gone, having vanished without a word in the past few days.

His absence left an aching emptiness in her heart, a reminder that her chance had slipped away.

So, as she looked at Nnenna standing there, surrounded by people waiting for her to fail, she couldn’t bring herself to feel joy.

If anything, she pitied her.

Across the room, Queen Chioma’s eyes narrowed.

He believed that Nnenna had scored poorly.

“This is wasting time,” she said impatiently.

“If you’ve seen your score, say it now, or we’ll assume the worst.” “Fine.

Since you all insist,” Nnenna said, a slow smirk creeping onto her face.

She turned the screen toward her father.

The moment his eyes landed on the score, his entire body stiffened.

His mouth opened slightly, but no words came out.

The Queen had to subtly nudge him before he snapped back to reality, clearing his throat.

“My friends,” King Ikechukwu finally announced, his voice carrying through the now silent hall.

“My daughter, the Second Princess of Lionara, has scored 1,400 out of 1,500 and has been admitted into Royal College to study medicine.” A wave of stunned silence washed over the hall.
