They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 344

Chapter 343: She Was Lonely

As if trying to stir things further, King Eglon did something calculated. He had Karen brought back to their cell the night before, placing her right in their midst like a spark tossed into dry grass.

But nothing burned.

No fights. No shouting. Not even a single insult thrown.

They simply… ignored her.

Utterly.

They isolated her as if she didn’t exist, like a ghost among the living.

And when King Eglon got word of it the next morning, he frowned.

He had hoped for fireworks, for drama.

But it seemed he had miscalculated.

He had picked the wrong people for his show.

Karen, now sharing a cell with the very people she had betrayed, tried everything she could to make them listen, especially John.

But he wouldn’t even look at her.

He had already made up his mind.

He would rather die with honor than live with a stain gifted by her hands.

And then, to her shock, Ekene made the same decision.

Karen blinked rapidly, unable to hide the disbelief in her eyes. “What? You too?”

Even Abuchi and Nnenna were stunned. They pleaded with John and Ekene, trying to get through to them, trying to shake some sense into their stubborn minds.

“We’ve already lost so much,” Nnenna said softly, her voice shaking. “Must we lose you too?”

But the two men stood firm, their silence louder than any argument.

“We choose our path,” Ekene finally said. “And we’ll walk it with our heads up, not under a shadow.”

There was no hatred in his voice.

Just clarity.
