The Luna Choosing Game by Jane Above Story novel Chapter 253

Chapter 0253 

Even now, standing as we were with the crowd around us dispersing, I was earning many passing glares

Gratitude filled my heart for what Nicholas had done. But worry still harbored in the rest of me

Jane had come here tonight to harm my reputation and she had succeeded in doing so. I didn’t know 

what I could do now to repair it

Ignore them,Nicholas said. “They have no idea who you are.

Does it matter who I am? If they think I am a disgrace, they will have the power to be rid of me.” 

They have no such power,Nicholas said firmly. Only the royal family can make those decisions.” 

But surely the nobility has the royal family’s ear.” 

We may listen. We may even consider. But they do not make the decisions for us.” 

NicholasI didn’t know how to tell him that, though I was incredibly thankful for his defending me,

knew it was only a matter of time until I was removed from the contest. It had always been this way.

daily walked on the edge of a knife. That I had stayed this long was a miracle.

Don’t give up yet, Piper. Please.” 

Above all, I didn’t dare disappoint him. So I nodded. I’ll keep trying.

Good.” 

As far as I was concerned, this evening couldn’t end fast enough. I was ready to go to my room, put on 

my comfortable pajamas, curl into bed, and forget everything for a while. Tomorrow, I could pull myself 

back together and figure out how to restore my reputation

Tonight, I just wanted to sleep. To unwind and forget

The universe had other plans for me

Nicholas had taken my arm and was escorting me to the door of the ballroom. I assumed he intended to 

walk me all the way back to my room. Three feet from the exit, Nathan walked directly into our path

The King wishes to speak with you, Piper.Nathan glanced at Nicholas. Alone.

Absolutely not,Nicholas said at once

Nathan lifted both brows. You would defy the King’s orders.” 

Nicholas grit his teeth together 

It’s okay, Prince Nicholas. I will speak with the King.” 

You aren’t going alone,Nicholas said

That is what the King requested,Nathan said

I’m going too,Nicholas added. My father can tell me to my face to get out, but I won’t let you face him 

alone.” 

Nathan seemed resigned to the matter, like he had faced this argument in the past. You’ll have to 

explain yourself.” 

I’m aware,” Nicholas said

Very well.Nathan turned and began to walk. He expected us to follow

Nicholas gripped my arm more firmly. Whatever he says or commands, I will not leave you alone to face 

him.” 

He might try to kick me out for my behavior tonight.”
