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

Chapter 458

Chapter 458: Since When do you Support Nnenna?

"Ahem."

Emily cleared her throat meaningfully.

It was only then that Nnenna realized she hadn’t properly introduced Emily to anyone. She turned around with a sheepish look.

She gestured at her. "Emily, meet my big brother Carl, his best friend Arthur, and my..."

Nnenna paused, suddenly unsure what to call Ava. Her mouth opened and closed.

"...This is Ava," she finally said, voice trailing off.

Ava’s smile froze, then fell into a slight frown. Why didn’t she call me her sister? Or at least her friend? she wondered, feeling a tiny sting in her chest.

Meanwhile, Arthur raised an eyebrow, distinctly dissatisfied. Just Carl’s best friend? That’s all I am to her?

Emily, on the other hand, had her mouth hanging open in pure shock.

"H-how long have you known them?" she stammered, eyes darting between all the royal faces she had only ever seen on the news.

Nnenna scratched her cheek awkwardly. "Well...it’s been some months now. Almost a year."
