Chapter 282: What Is He Doing?!

She nodded again, accepting the weight of his words without letting them weigh her down.

“It’s okay.” Later, when she returned to her room, her heart was light but focused.

She knew that if Ebere or Little Sweetie found out what she was about to do, they would never approve.

Especially not the truth of it.

So instead of saying goodbye in person, Nnenna sat down and wrote them a message, brief but heartfelt.

Then she packed her things.

To make sure her sisters wouldn’t try to stop her, Nnenna scheduled a message on their social media private chat.

It was set to send exactly one hour after she left the palace.

By then, she would be far away, and it would be too late for anyone to convince her to turn back.

After that, she started preparing.

She packed quietly, her hands moving with purpose.

Everything they had been asked to bring for the mission went into a small backpack.

She added a simple change of clothes, then paused as she carefully placed the money her brother had secretly given her.

It was more than what he gave the others, she could feel it.

They didn’t know.

But she knew.

He was giving her a way out.

If things went wrong…

if she was alone… he wanted her to survive.

To have a way of coming back to Lionara.

The thought made her heart clench.

She held the pouch tightly for a moment, then placed it deep inside the bag.

After that, she sent a message to her two close friends.
