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

Chapter 500

Chapter 500: Boom. Checkmate. Royal edition.

It was overwhelming.

Nnenna didn’t want it. It felt like too much, too formal, too public. She just wanted a quiet day with the people she cared about.

She needed someone to talk sense into Queen White. So she went to Somto.

To her relief, he agreed to help.

Although... judging by the odd look on his face, Nnenna wasn’t entirely sure if his reasons were the same as hers.

Still, she had an ally.

That night, they both made a plan to talk to the King and Queen during dinner.

Whatever it took, they were going to try and stop that party.

Nnenna freshened up and headed downstairs right on time. She always made it a point to be punctual, being late was impolite, especially in the royal household where even the King and Queen, despite their endless responsibilities, never kept anyone waiting.

She paused at the mirror near her door, giving herself one last look.

Neat. Composed. Ready.

With a small nod to herself, she opened the door and walked toward the dining hall.

As she approached, the door to the hall slid open, and her steps slowed.

She heard a voice. A very familiar one.

"She doesn’t like pink. Let’s go with purple instead," the voice said confidently, laced with gentle amusement.

Queen White’s voice followed, warm and appreciative. "Really? I’m so glad you’re here to help me. I would’ve gone with pink, thinking all girls liked pink."

Nnenna blinked, frowning slightly as she stepped fully into view. Her eyes moved to the left side of the Queen... and there he was.
