Chapter 235: Careless Chapter 235: Careless “A game?” Nnenna’s lips twitched in amusement.

“What kind of game?” “Uh… chess!” Ebere blurted out immediately.

“I see.

That’s a nice game, so tactical, so involved.” Nnenna nodded thoughtfully.

“But from the sounds I heard, things were hitting the table quite hard.

Even if the chessboard fell, it wouldn’t make so much noise… like a fist slamming the table, would it now, Sister?” Exposed Ebere “…” Ebere was speechless.

How in the world does she know everything?!

She scrambled to come up with another excuse, but Nnenna cut her off.

“Stop lying, Elder Sister,” she said firmly.

“I already know what happened.

A servant, one of my friends, was passing by and heard the argument.

And before you try to make another excuse, she also saw your face when you left the throne room.” Ebere opened her mouth but closed it again.

Nnenna took a step closer, her voice soft but determined.

“What’s going on?

Tell me the truth.

You most likely got into whatever this is because of me, didn’t you?” She reached out, squeezing Ebere’s hand gently.

“Don’t leave me out of it.

I want to help.

I can’t bear watching you suffer because of me.” Ebere sighed.

I knew it.

There was no point in hiding it now, her sister had already figured out most of it.

“Second Brother summoned me to tell me that I should stop being close to you,” she admitted.

Nnenna’s eyes widened in shock.

So, it had come to this.

First, Obinna restricted her movements.

Then, he tried to take her phone.

He even limited the resources given to her, including food.

And now, he wanted to take away the sister she got after ten whole years?
