They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System-Chapter 55 - Loneliness

The Love System’s voice resonated in her mind, soothing and warm.

“Yes, you could have used them,” she began gently, “but good points aren’t easy to earn.

If you can endure the situation or solve it on your own, it’s better to save them for truly crucial moments.

Do not worry, my Master has come to give you life and life more abundantly.

As long as you complete missions and bear good fruit, you will be fine.

His name is a strong tower; good people run into it and are safe.

If it had been absolutely necessary, I would have reminded you to use your good points.”

The words were like a balm to her soul, reassurance sinking into the corners of her heart that had been tense just moments ago.

Nnenna nodded slowly, her earlier panic softening into something calmer.

“Okay,” she murmured aloud, her tone quiet but steady.

The Love System’s unwavering comfort left no room for doubt.

She sat quietly after that, immersed in her silent exchange with the Love System.

Her earlier nervous energy ebbed away with every passing second, replaced by a subtle peace.

Even her expression shifted, the lines of worry easing into a more relaxed, thoughtful look.

Gradually, her mind began to clear, and the anxiety that had clung to her earlier felt like a distant memory.

A thought nagged at Nnenna, pulling her focus back from the window.

She turned to Ikenna hesitantly, her lips pressing together briefly before she found the courage to speak.

“You’re not going to tell my family or anyone about this, right?” Her voice was quiet, edged with caution and an underlying plea.

Worry flickered in her eyes as she awaited his response.

Ikenna’s lighthearted demeanor shifted instantly.

The faint smirk that usually played on his lips disappeared, replaced by a look of unwavering seriousness.

His hands gripped the steering wheel with renewed firmness, and his tone carried an air of finality as he answered, “I will tell the necessary people.”

His words hung in the air, stark and unyielding.

Nnenna frowned, her expression quickly shifting from uncertainty to frustration.

“If you don’t mind, who are those necessary people?

Also, it was just a false alarm.

What’s the need to say anything?

They wouldn’t care anyway,” she said, her tone defensive, her arms crossing over her chest as if shielding herself from the weight of his response.

Ikenna’s gaze didn’t waver from the road, but his grip on the wheel tightened ever so slightly.

“The necessary people are left for me to decide,” he replied, his voice calm but resolute.

Then, he glanced at her briefly, his eyes steady and knowing.

“And who said they wouldn’t care?

You would be surprised to know that they might.”

A short, bitter laugh escaped Nnenna’s lips as she turned her gaze to the window, her expression unreadable.

“You don’t know my life, so don’t be so sure about that,” she muttered, her voice quiet but laced with undeniable pain.

Her words, though softly spoken, carried a sharp edge that lingered in the air.

Ikenna’s grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly as he cast a sidelong glance at her.

The bitterness in her tone struck a chord he hadn’t expected, and it left him unsettled.

For weeks, Ikenna had been puzzled by the absence of her family during her recovery.

Apart from Somto, who had practically moved mountains to ensure her safety and comfort, no one else from her family seemed to visit or show visible concern.

It was baffling, especially considering the lengths the first prince had gone to for her.

Somto’s relentless care wasn’t that subtle, was it?

his visit every month, detailed instructions to the hospital staff, and the security measures he had put in place were impossible to ignore.

Yet, here was Nnenna, speaking as if no one in the world cared about her.

She didn’t notice the flicker of surprise that passed over Ikenna’s face, nor the way his brows drew together in frustration.

Her words echoed in his mind, piecing together a painful picture of loneliness that even he hadn’t fully realized until now.

What truly left Ikenna speechless was how wrong Nnenna’s assumptions were about everyone, especially about Somto.

The first prince doted on her in ways she seemed utterly blind to.

Despite the monumental weight of his responsibilities, Somto had always made time for her.

Whether it was through his unannounced visits to the hospital or the detailed updates he demanded from the staff, he ensured he was never out of the loop when it came to her well being.

Ikenna had been given clear instructions by Somto himself, only the best medical personnel were to handle her care, and Ikenna was to supervise every detail personally.

Somto left no aspect of her treatment unattended, from the most intricate procedures to the simplest comforts.

Everything, from her meals to the temperature of her room, was orchestrated under his watchful eye.

It baffled Ikenna how Nnenna could remain so oblivious to this level of dedication.

Somto had even trusted Ikenna with her personal safety, a responsibility the prince would have carried out himself if not for the overwhelming demands of his personal duties.

‘Does she not see everything her eldest brother has done for her?’ Ikenna wondered, his brows furrowing deeply.

How could someone surrounded by so much care feel so utterly forgotten?
