They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System-Chapter 71 - One Sided

No wonder the love system had allowed her to enter that room so easily, no one was staying there anymore.

And with her relationship with Ikenna, she could probably even move into that room herself if she wanted to.

But that thought only made her feel worse.

She didn’t have the answers to all her burning questions, but one thing was clear

She didn’t want someone who didn’t want her.

Nnenna left Ikenna’s office, her emotions in turmoil.

Why had she reacted so strongly?

And why had she lashed out at Ikenna, of all people, someone she truly liked and respected?

Was it the lost good points that hurt the most… or was it the man himself?

She couldn’t figure it out.

So she withdrew.

For weeks, she avoided everyone.

The only thing she focused on was ranking up her good points, working tirelessly to reach 970 points by helping people.

She used it plus her previous ones for her fourth month life extension and kept the rest in preparation for her return to the castle.

But aside from that, she kept to herself.

Her withdrawal only infuriated Ikenna and Somto more especially Ikenna who had taken the role of a henpecked brother seriously.

To them, it was obvious.

Nnenna had fallen in love with Four.

And now that he was gone, without even saying goodbye

She couldn’t handle it.

By the time her stay at the hospital ended, she still hadn’t fully unraveled her emotions.

But she was close.

Her theory?

She had seen Four as two things, a good friend and a mission.

When he left without a word, it caused a deficiency in both connections.

That explanation fit.

So she went with it.

But after that, she made a decision

She canceled the friendship part.

Friendship was never meant to be one sided.

If Four didn’t see her as someone worth keeping in his life,

Then she didn’t want him either.

“Now isn’t the time to be distracted,” Nnenna told herself firmly.

She was going back to the castle in just a few days, and she needed to be ready, body, mind, heart, soul, and spirit.

Her 16th birthday was approaching fast, the day that had marked the end of her life in her previous life.

This time, she had already taken steps to prevent the same fate, staying longer in the hospital to address the illnesses that had claimed her life on that day in her past.

But, who knew?

Nature had a way of finding alternative paths to death.

She needed to be ready, for anything, and from anyone.

Seas away from the Royal Hospital, atop a towering snow covered mountain, a man in a white fur coat stood still, his sharp gaze locked onto the frozen expanse below.

The biting wind howled around him, whipping at his coat, but he didn’t flinch.

His pale complexion, the color of his clothing, and the white snow made him almost invisible, like a phantom blending into the ice covered world.

From a distance, a second man emerged from a small camp, his hurried footsteps crunching against the frost as he ran toward the lone figure.

His breath was ragged, misting in the freezing air.

“Sir!

Urgent news!” he called out as he approached.

The man in white remained silent, his piercing gaze never wavering.

“What is it?” he finally asked, his voice calm but dangerously cold.

“She’s adopted, sir!” the second man reported, watching for any reaction.

When he received none, he continued, urgency lacing his tone.

“She was adopted into the Achebe royal family… at the age of six!”

The moment the word six was spoken, the man in white turned sharply, revealing Four’s striking features.

His usually unreadable eyes flickered with something rare, hope.

A tense silence settled between them before Four’s voice cut through the icy wind like a blade.

“Continue investigating,” he ordered, his tone as sharp as ever.

A bitter smirk tugged at his lips.

“I knew Somto wouldn’t care this much if she wasn’t important.”

The second man gave a swift nod and hurried back toward the camp, disappearing into the swirling snow.

Four remained where he stood, eyes narrowing as he turned his gaze back to the endless white abyss below.

So, she was adopted into the Achebe family…

A slow, calculating smile ghosted across his lips.

Interesting.

Four’s gaze remained fixed on the endless white landscape, the flicker of hope in his eyes growing stronger.

“I don’t know if you’re her… but if you are, I’m closer than I’ve ever been,” he whispered, his breath vanishing into the icy wind.

The logic in his mind battled against the emotion in his heart.

He had spent months with that girl, observing her every move, every reaction.

And yet… there had been no sign, not even a shadow, of his best friend.

Still… this new information changed everything.

If there was even the slightest chance… he would dig deeper.

A Few Days Later

The housekeeper arrived at the hospital, his face lighting up with a warm smile.

“You’re finally being discharged,” he said, his voice filled with genuine happiness.

“We miss you at home.”

But the moment those words left his mouth, he hesitated.

We?

The truth was, he missed her.

And maybe a few others had said the same to him.

But was there really a we?

Or was he just hoping more people cared than they let on?
