They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System Chapter 250 - 250 Trouble

Chapter 250: Trouble Chapter 250: Trouble A wave of unease settled over them.

Could she take our positions?

What if the manager promotes her?

She clearly has a sharp eye.

So were outright envious, gritting their teeth as they returned to work.

Others, though reluctant, admitted to themselves that they wouldn’t have been able to pick up on the details Nnenna had noticed.

Still, not everyone was willing to accept her.

A few of the workers whispered amongst themselves, their prejudice evident in their hushed tones.

Who is she, really?

Why did she cover her face?

She doesn’t belong here.

Despite all the attention on her, Nnenna remained unfazed.

She could feel the stares, sense the jealousy, and hear the muttered complaints, but she didn’t care.

She had done what she needed to do.

Nothing else mattered.

Nnenna exhaled, shaking her head slightly.

“What a day,” she muttered to herself before pocketing her phone and returning to work.

Chinwa narrowed her eyes, her fingers tapping rhythmically against the fabric of the counter as she observed the strange girl who had suddenly stolen the spotlight.

She never thought she would see Nnenna, the weird new girl as a threat, after all, the girl was peculiar, and peculiar people rarely got far in structured environnts like this.

Besides, Nnenna had kept to herself all morning, never trying to stand out or challenge the existing hierarchy.

But now, that had changed.

Chinwa’s lips pressed into a thin line.

How could soone like her, who had been working here for years, carefully securing her position, be suddenly overshadowed by a girl who had likely not even finished drinking milk, as far as experience was concerned?

And yet, in just a few hours, Nnenna had done what Chinwa had been trying to do for years, earn the favor of the manager.

Lady Chineye, the Duke’s daughter, was obviously impressed with her.

The manager, who had always been strict and cautious about who she trusted, was now looking at Nnenna with newfound appreciation.

Even so of the custors had started whispering about the “girl in the face mask and cap” and how sharp eyed she was.

Chinwa’s stomach twisted in irritation.

This wasn’t just so lucky break.

It was dangerous.

If Nnenna continued to shine, then she might beco an actual threat.

And that was sothing Chinwa simply could not allow.

She had worked too hard to keep her place in this store.

It wasn’t just about the job, this was her turf.

She had climbed the ladder, made herself indispensable, and secured influence over the store’s workings.

And now, because of one dramatic incident, Nnenna had suddenly gained favor with the very people Chinwa had spent years trying to please.

No, this was not acceptable.

This was a mistake that needed to be corrected.

anwhile, Nnenna was celebrating quietly in her own way, enjoying the chis of the Love System notifying her of her earned good points.

She had no idea that in the process of doing the right thing, she had unknowingly made an enemy, a formidable one at that.

She smiled to herself, feeling pleased, but as she took in the atmosphere of the store, she noticed sothing.

So staff mbers were throwing her sharp glances.

Others were muttering under their breath, eyes filled with either admiration or resentnt.

Ah.

So, she had stirred the pot.

It wasn’t surprising, really.

People didn’t like it when soone new disrupted the established order.

She had only intended to do what was right, but in doing so, she had changed the way people saw her.

She wasn’t just an ordinary employee anymore, she had beco soone to watch, for better or worse.

The realization made her pause for a mont.

Was this really a good thing?

Or had she unknowingly set sothing dangerous in motion?

Regardless, she couldn’t change what had already been done.

She could only move forward.

But sowhere in the shadows of the store, Chinwa had already made up her mind.

Nnenna had unknowingly placed herself in a ga she wasn’t even aware of.

And in Chinwa’s mind, there was no room for two rising stars in this place.

Not if she had anything to say about it.

Ding!

“You were quick to gather evidence, uphold justice for an innocent person, vindicate her, earn admiration and respect from various people, and gain a powerful friend.

You earned 300 good points!” Nnenna’s eyes flickered with satisfaction as she read the system notification.

300 good points!

That was a massive jump, considering how hard it was to earn them.

While the points were a nice bonus, what truly made her smile was the satisfaction of exposing a liar and helping soone innocent.

There was sothing incredibly fulfilling about watching a scheming pretender get what they deserved.

Justice had been served, and she had been the one to deliver it.

The atmosphere in the store had shifted since the whole ordeal.

Most people were now keeping a low profile, avoiding unnecessary drama after everything that had unfolded.

The staff mbers had quickly gone back to their work, but their occasional glances toward her still carried a mixture of curiosity, wariness, and, for so, resentnt.

So admired her.

So resented her.

So feared her.

She sighed.

That was just how people were.

As the day stretched on, the store gradually emptied.

Custors left, one by one, until the place was finally quiet.

Finally, evening ca.

The mont the clock struck closing ti, Nnenna exhaled deeply.

Ti to go ho.

She was about to step out of the store when soone suddenly blocked her path.

She looked up, startled, only to see a familiar face standing in front of her.

Chinwa.

The assistant manager stood with her arms folded, an unimpressed expression on her face.

Her sharp gaze locked onto Nnenna like a predator eyeing prey.

Sothing about that gaze instantly put Nnenna on edge.

“Where do you think you’re going, newbie?” Chinwa’s voice was smooth, yet there was an underlying sharpness to it.
