You Are The Apple of My Eyes novel Chapter 848

In the end, Michelle failed to stop Caroline from blurting out her secret. The truth was, while she wanted to tell the whole world that Leon was her boyfriend, she knew it would get them both in trouble.

The reason why she wanted the world to know that Leon was her boyfriend was to establish the fact that he was hers.

But when she saw the shock and disbelief on Selena's face, she was worried Leon would get into trouble, so she quickly tried to come up with an explanation. "No, you misunderstand—"

"Selena," Caroline said suddenly, interrupting Michelle. "Your expression tells me that you know of her boyfriend."

Selena slowly regained her senses. "Not only do I know him, but so does the entire C Island."

Caroline was confused. "What do you mean?"

"There aren't many families on C Island with the surname Lu, but the few who do all come from a prominent background.

Our king's surname is Lu, and our prince's name is Leon Lu." "What?!" Caroline was so shocked she couldn't help but raise her voice.

"And our princess's name is Nina Lu," Selena added for good measure.

Caroline's legs suddenly felt like buckling from underneath her. She tried to keep her calm, but seeing the serious look in Selena's eyes and the panic in Michelle's, she had no choice but to believe it.

Michelle hurriedly explained, "No, no. He just has the same name as the prince. It's all just a big coincidence! He isn't..."

She trailed off.

'Leon isn't what? The prince of C Island?

But he is!'

Caroline and Selena, who were still very much in shock, didn't notice that Michelle didn't complete her sentence. Evidently, they wanted to believe what she was saying.

After all, the prince of C Island enjoyed a high status.

'Fairy tales can't be real. How can a prince fall for a Cinderella in real life?

But there is only one person named Leon Lu on C Island!'

Her mind was racing, but in the end, Selena couldn't deceive herself. After a while, she asked, "Is your boyfriend really a native of C Island? If his surname is Lu and his first name is Leon, is it just a coincidence that he has the same name as our prince?"

"Yes." Michelle nodded vigorously.

Caroline let out a heavy sigh of relief. "That makes sense."

Both Michelle and Caroline were under the impression that this explanation made sense.

Selena, on the other hand, was born and raised on C Island, so she knew better.

"There's only one Leon Lu and one Nina Lu on C Island," Selena said slowly. "The two names, Leon and Nina, are prohibited from being used here—especially if your surname happens to be Lu.

It's an unwritten rule that no one else can use the names of the princes and princesses of C Island."

Michelle didn't know this. All the color drained from her face as Selena spoke.

"So if your boyfriend is a native of C Island, and if his name is Leon Lu, that can only mean one thing..." Selena trailed off, wearing a conflicted expression.

Looking pleadingly into Selena's eyes, Michelle begged, "Can you keep it a secret?"

Caroline's mind went blank. After a long pause, she looked at Michelle with disbelief written all over her face. "Michelle, it seems I've truly underestimated you."

Selena was also in a daze. She kept saying "Oh, my God!" in a low voice.

When Michelle and Caroline showed up at her place together, she didn't pay much attention to Michelle.

But gradually, she had come to notice Michelle's clear eyes and her bright smile.

'This girl is attractive, yes, but how did she manage to catch Prince Leon's attention?'

Leon once mentioned that if he had to marry someone, she would need to be as beautiful and as smart as his sister, Nina.

But few people on C Island could match Nina in looks and brains.
