They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System-Chapter 60 - A Brown Envelope
Chapter 60: A Brown Envelope
Chapter 60: A Brown Envelope
“I’ve noticed her visiting him a lot too.
What’s strange is that Four hasn’t outright stopped her, even though he wasn’t so accommodating before.
Still, even if she does like him, he doesn’t feel the same.
If he did, he wouldn’t have ordered those two statues to stop her from entering.”
“Wait—what?” Ikenna’s brow furrowed.
“He did,” Somto clarified.
“But they weren’t there the first day she got through and as for the second day, they disobeyed Four and let her in.”
Ikenna leaned forward, his voice rising slightly.
“So, what are you saying?
It’s probably just a one sided crush?”
Somto’s eyes narrowed, his tone firm.
“Probably.
Help me confirm that…and kill those feelings before they grow, would you?”
His expression remained shadowed, as though he were processing something far beyond what he was saying aloud.
“With pleasure,” Ikenna replied with a smirk, fully onboard with the idea.
Meanwhile, in her room, Nnenna sat cross legged on her bed, a determined look on her face.
She was deep in thought, strategizing how to discreetly deliver the pictures to Nurse Courage without drawing attention.
What she didn’t realize, however, was that her carefully planned attempts to earn 7,000 good points by completing her mission with Four had now been completely misunderstood.
To everyone else, her efforts looked like nothing more than the infatuation of a typical teenager.
Nnenna carefully packed the photos into a large brown envelope she had taken from the printing room.
Gripping a pen, she scrawled across the front in bold letters “Open this, Nurse Courage.
You should know the truth.”
Her plan was simple, leave the envelope at Nurse Courage’s station so she would see it when she returned.
But there was a problem.
‘What if someone else got to it first?’ She would have to wait for the perfect moment, when Nurse Courage was away, to place it there undisturbed.
With her heart pounding, she slipped out of her room and made her way to the station.
As she peeked around the corner, she spotted Nurse Courage sitting at her desk, looking lost in thought.
Her eyes flickered toward the clock.
“Thirty minutes left on my shift…”
Nnenna pressed herself against the wall, blending into the shadows of the hallway.
She would wait.
Nurse Courage had to leave her post at some point.
Fifteen minutes crawled by, and yet the nurse hadn’t moved.
She just sat there, staring at the ticking clock as if waiting for something.
Nnenna’s palms grew clammy.
Her pulse quickened.
This wasn’t part of the plan.
At this rate, she would never get the envelope onto the desk unnoticed.
And if Nurse Courage didn’t leave soon, she would have to rethink everything.
“Fifteen minutes left…
She’s going to the bank to transfer the money.
How am I supposed to get this to her before she leaves?” Nnenna muttered under her breath, frustration building in her chest.
She clenched the envelope tightly, her mind racing.
There had to be a way.
“Love System,” she called out internally.
“Can you create a distraction?”
“A distraction?” the system’s voice echoed in her mind.
“Do you need one?”
“Yes!
Anything that can get her away from the desk for a few minutes,” she urged.
“Understood,” the Love System responded.
“But it will cost you good points.”
Nnenna exhaled sharply.
Of course, it would.
“I know, I know,” she grumbled.
“How much time do you need?” the system asked.
Nnenna calculated quickly.
“At least three minutes.”
“Very well.
That will cost you 25 good points.”
Before she could second-guess the decision, a familiar sound rang in her ears
Ding!
25 Good Points Deducted.
Distraction Initiated in 5…
4…
3…
2…
Her breath caught in anticipation.
This had to work.
“Code Blue ICU!
Code Blue ICU!”
The urgent announcement blared through the hospital’s speakers, making every heartbeat quicken.
Nnenna barely had time to process what was happening before she saw Nurse Courage bolt from her seat, her instincts kicking in as she rushed toward the ICU, ready to assist.
This was it.
Her chance.
Without wasting a second, Nnenna sprinted to the desk.
She slipped the envelope under Nurse Courage’s folder and carefully placed her phone on top to make it look undisturbed.
Then, with a racing heart, she darted back to her hiding spot, pressing herself against the wall.
One minute and thirty seconds later, the Code Blue was lifted.

The patient had been stabilized.
The doctors and nurses who arrived first had managed to save them.
Nurse Courage, still mid sprint, skidded to a stop as the all clear was called.
She sighed in relief, muttering a prayer of thanks before turning around and heading back to her desk.
She had been so caught up in the emergency that, for now, the whole Reuben situation slipped from her mind.
But Nnenna wasn’t relieved just yet.
Had she pulled it off?
Would Nurse Courage find the envelope and read it?
Her heart pounded as she waited in the shadows, anticipation thick in the air.
Nurse Courage returned to her station, ready to grab her things and begin her final rounds before the end of her shift.
As she picked up her phone and lifted her folder, something caught her eye.
A brown envelope.
It hadn’t been there before.
Her brows furrowed as she read the bold words scrawled across it:
“Open this, Nurse Courage.
You should know the truth.”
A chill ran down her spine.
Who put this here?
She glanced around the station, searching for anyone suspicious, but the hall was as normal as ever.
Yet, someone had slipped it under her folder in just the few minutes she had been gone.
Her fingers hesitated over the flap.
She wanted to open it, needed to open it, but not here.
Not in public.
With firm resolve, she tucked the envelope under her arm and strode toward the restroom.
Unbeknownst to her, Nnenna followed.
She kept her footsteps light, her breathing steady, her heart hammering in anticipation.
She needed to see Nurse Courage read it, needed to confirm her reaction.
