Chapter 238: Very Weird Girl Chapter 238: Very Weird Girl The other girl, who had grown quiet, suddenly gasped.

“Wait… is that even possible?” She turned pale, her voice trembling.

“If—if Ruth is no longer a princess… does that mean… someone else could marry him instead?” The realization hit her like a bolt of lightning.

She clutched her chest as if she could already feel the heartbreak.

“No… NOOO!” she wailed.

Meanwhile, Nnenna, still standing behind them, listened intently.

She wasn’t particularly interested in their gossip, but one thing caught her attention They knew about the second princess.

Which meant… they knew her face.

Her stomach twisted.

How could she forget something so basic?

She had been so focused on sneaking out and getting a job that she completely neglected to put on a disguise.

After months of staying inside the castle, she had let her guard down.

As she instinctively stepped back, trying to retreat without drawing attention, her heel knocked into a table behind her.

Not when they had just been talking about the second princess!

Before they could get a proper look at her, she grabbed the thickest book she could find, a worn out accounting ledger, and swiftly raised it to cover her face.

Kosi frowned.

“Uh… what are you doing?” “Yeah,” Lillian added, confused.
