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

Chapter 365: Acting Cute

Of course she wanted to be there.

It wasn’t even the first time Abel had received a royal invitation. He was, after all, highly respected, both in the business world and in certain elite circles.

Obinna, the Second Prince himself, was one of his close friends.

And because of that friendship, Abel had been given a seat at the royal event, with a plus one.

Juliet intended to be that plus one.

His voice was calm, but firm. Logical. Final.
