Chapter 1423

Ava’s words made Barbara’s heart sink “Becky was intentionally causing a scene at the restaurant,upsetting all the guests. Now she’s cleaning up over there.” She answered.

Ava frowned, asking. “What did you just say?”

“Mom, Becky was stirring up trouble at an inappropriate occasion. She said some things thatoffended those artists. They’re very sensitive; even the slightest misstep can get them agitated. Butit’s all good now. Becky might be feeling a bit hard done by, but as long as the state banquet goessmoothly, everything else is secondary Barbara managed to persuade Ava. At this point, she had tokeep a low profile. As long as the state banquet proceeded smoothly, and as long as she gotthrough Crown Day, nothing else mattered.

However, news of the incident at the restaurant soon reached Queen Julia’s ears. The world–classartists whom Queen Julia had sincerely invited felt insulted by Becky’s thoughtless words and eventhreatened to strike and not perform, causing Queen Julia a real headache.

If these artists didn’t perform, this state banquet would become a laughingstock worldwide.

The power of public opinion was enormous; it could cause a huge stir in a small circle, let alone at aworld–class event!

“My granddaughter actually called the top artists buskers, knocked over guests‘ meals twice, andeven said they didn’t deserve to eat the royal food. This is just too much! Someone, bring Beckyhere, and get Ms. Chloe over here too!” Queen Julia said.

“Roger!” Someone immediately responded and rushed off to do it.

“Hold on!” the Queen suddenly stopped the attendant, “Don’t get Ms. Chloe just yet. I’ll see herpersonally after the state banquet.” “Roger!” The attendant responded again.

Then, she turned her gaze to the projected screen in front of her. “Mr. Harper, I’ll handle this. Don’tworry; I’m not letting Becky off easily,” On the screen was Damon’s captivating face. “Alright.”Damon replied nonchalantly. “She’s not Ms. Chloe; she’s Mrs. Harper.”

Queen Julia paused, a kind smile appearing on her face. “It seems you’re quite fond of Mrs.Harper.”

“Yes.” His voice was flat.

Queen Julia smiled and said, “I will give her an explanation.”

“Okay, Damon said.

After hanging up the video call, Damon’s expression didn’t change, which made Nate, who was nextto him, shake his head helplessly.

He should’ve been used to Damon indulging and tolerating Mrs. Harper by now. But he was stillshocked.

Damon was simply too doting on Mrs. Harper. He actually learned to tattle?!

He knew very well what happened. Mrs. Harper was provoked by Princess Becky, and thenPrincess Becky was also severely humiliated. Mrs. Harper had clearly turned the tables, but he hasto act to help her.

Not only did he help Mrs. Harper turn the situation around, but he also reported it to Queen Julia.How immature!

Was this his way of protecting Mrs. Harper from being wronged? He was clearly only allowing hiswoman to bully others.

When Becky was summoned by the attendant, she was crying to Ava, but her tears immediatelystopped when she heard she was being summoned by the Queen.

Ava’s face also turned serious. But she didn’t dare to delay, leading Becky to follow the attendant.

Upon entering the side hall where the Queen was currently located, Becky carefully called out,“Grandma!”

Queen Julia was sitting behind the table. Hearing the voice, she took off her reading glasses off hernose and suddenly threw them on the table.

Becky shrank back a bit. From the moment she entered the room, she felt that something waswrong. The whole room seemed to be filled with suffocating cold air, and a strong aura emanatedfrom Queen Julia, making people shiver. She rarely saw her grandmother so angry.

Ava, feeling the tension in the atmosphere, gave an awkward laugh, “Mom…”

Queen Julia’s gaze remained cold. “I went through great lengths to sincerely invite world–classartists, and you called them buskers in front of everyone.”

Ava was taken aback. She only knew that Becky had offended those people, and she hadn’t had achance to ask what exactly had happened. The sudden surge of anger made her head spin. Howcould she have such a foolish daughter?!

Queen Julia continued, “You provoked others for no reason, knocked over guests‘ meals twice. Youclaimed that the guests didn’t deserve to eat the royal food, and that you were being charitable byfeeding them.”

Ava felt like her head was about to explode.

There was silence in the room for a few seconds. Then, a cold laugh rang out from Queen Julia,“Becky, I didn’t know when the entire Y Country royal family became yours”

The tense string in the air suddenly snapped, and Ava’s legs gave away. “Mom, Becky was spoiledby me. She’s young and doesn’t think before she speaks or acts.”

Queen Julia picked up a bookmark and placed it in the half–read document, closing it and gentlystroking the special shaped letter “E” on top. Her gaze was cool.

They say actions speak louder than words” Queen Julia slowly said, “If it weren’t for the greed inher heart, she never would have said those words.”

Slowly looking up, Queen Julia squinted at Ava, “William has been abroad for most of these years,and you’ve been in charge of her upbringing. Ava, tell me, how have you disciplmed her duringthese years, and what values have you instilled in her?”

Ava’s heart pounded out of her chest, and she shook her head in denial, “Mom, I didn’t. You’ve got itall wrong. I just want her to grow up happy and healthy. It’s my fault for not being strict enough,that’s why she turned out like this.”

Becky was already feeling wronged today. Seeing her grandma lash out at her withoutunderstanding the situation made her feel even more upset. “Grandma, it was that woman whostarted trouble with me first in P City. She slapped me several times, and I just can’t help but getangry when I see her.”

“She hit you first?” Ava asked

Yes, in P City, she and her mom bullied… Becky was about to finish speaking.

“Shut up!!!* With a crisp sound, Becky’s face instantly swelled up.

Ava’s hand also felt numb from the slap
