Chapter 1711

Queen Julia woke up that afternoon. Chloe had been at her bedside all along. At first sight of Chloe,Queen Julia’s eyes were a little red with an unspeakable emotion.

“You’re awake‘ Chloe whispered, her calm face bearing a small smile

Queen Julia nodded slightly, turning her gaze towards the window. The sky had turned dark.

Silence lingered for a while as if she was going over the events that had occurred earlier in hermind, and then, she took a deep breath.

Chloe didn’t say a word, quietly pouring her a glass of water and holding it gently. She feltmelancholy, regretful, even sad, but she couldn’t say anything about it c2

The harm brought on by the granddaughter she had loved for more than two decades, it broughtabout so much emotion. Even if she was the Queen’s dearest, she couldn’t intrude or judge

“Chloe Queen Julia suddenly spoke softly, her hand clutching at Chloe’s dress.

Chloe lowered her gaze to meet hers “Hmm?”

“Do you resent me?”

Chloe offered a small smile, “No.” Her answer was too simple, making it seem overly cold.

Queen Julia pursed her lips, “So you do resent me”

“Grandma, Chloe put down the glass, helping Queen Julia sit up. “Leaving all other things aside, Iam actually grateful for the presence of those three women over the years. They were so spoiledand arrogant, using this incident as leverage, and it was not without reason. It was my appearance

that shattered the relationship you all had for so many years. You insist that I resent you, so doesn’tthat mean you admit that I am the cause of your sorrow?”

Chloe picked up the water glass again and handed it to her, “Actually, it wouldn’t be wrong if youresent me. I am your granddaughter, after all. You can’t really do anything to me”

Queen Julia blinked, looking into Chloe’s eyes with a hint of surprise. She seemed to not believethat Chloe would say such cheeky words. She took a sip of the water, the temperature just right. “Idon’t resent you. Although it is regretful, I prefer to know the truth than to be deceived. I’vemanaged state affairs my entire life and everything has been clear and transparent. Yet to bedeceived in this matter is a huge insult to my dignity. I can’t stand being kept in the dark forever”

Chloe nodded. That’s good.”

Some things, if taken to the extreme, would make anyone guilty.

The news of Queen Julia fainting had attracted the attention of people both domestically andinternationally. Ava and Barbara had been hiding at home, not daring to step out. Every day frommorning until night, a large number of reporters were stationed outside their door. They were barelyable to fend for themselves, let alone help Becky

Ava was agitated, her eyes filled with bloodshot veins. Each day she would either shut herself in herbedroom or sit blankly on the sofa.

Barbara was in a similar state She resented Chloe for her relentless pursuit, but she hated Beckyeven more for being a jinx. Bit by bit, their good image in front of their grandmother was beingtarnished, and with a few words, their future was ruined.

Forget about the right to inherit the throne, even their princess titles had been taken away. Theirreputation now was in ruins, she couldn’t imagine what it would be like if she were to step out of the

house now.

Everything was over

She believed that over the years, she had consistently improved herself in various ways and hadcultivated her own character. She thought she was calm enough to handle any situation, alwaysable to keep her mind in the best state. When it came to skills, appearance, personality,relationships, and strategy, she believed she was second to none

Over the years, she had never doubted herself. So no matter how terrifying Chloe’s reputation was,she never paid her any attention. But now, with just

one move from Chloe, she was reduced to such a state

With her fingers almost piercing her palm, she tried her best to calm herself, hoping to replace a wayout. But now, she couldn’t even leave the house, let alone enter the palace. What could she do?

At this moment, she turned to look at Ava. She had always known that her mother had a lot of tricksup her sleeve. At such a critical moment, she couldn’t possibly just sit and wait for death.

However, when she looked over for the umpteenth time, Ava was still in a daze She clenched herteeth, frustrated with Ava’s incompetence “Mom What are you thinking?”

Ava turned to look at her, her expression somewhat dazed.

Barbara suddenly stood up, looking down at her with a hysterical voice. “Becky is now locked up injail. There are numerous reporters outside taking shifts to monitor us The title of the princess hasbeen taken back. Do you have any idea about the current situation? You’ve been sitting at homelike this for two days now. What are you planning to do?!”

Ava blinked, her voice indifferent. “What do you want me to do? Aren’t you good at scheming? Youcould even scheme against me. Why haven’t you come up with a good idea now?”

Barbara furrowed her brows, looking at Ava as if she were crazy. “Have you gone mad?”

Ave also stood up, her bloodshot eyes staring at Barbara. T’m not in the mood to argue with youright now. You better stay away from me.”

had not been in a normal state over the past few days. Barbara watched her ascend the stairs, witha gloomy look on her face.

Queen Julia had been recuperating for the past couple of days, declining all visitors. And on thesecond night, someone informed her that Mr. Harper wanted to visit Queen Julia in the palace.

The Queen, who had just finished her dinner and was currently enjoying the flowers in thegreenhouse, smiled at Chloe and said, “You were gone for only one night, and he can’t hold back.When I first learned that you two were together, I was indeed very surprised. He seemed too aloof,not like a man who could stop for love. I even thought it was a bizarre thing for a woman to appearat his side. I also thought that he might be able to do anything except when it comes to dealing withwomen. However, I didn’t expect that it was my granddaughter who conquered him in the end.”

Chloe, who was always awkward when being teased about her relationship with Damon, blushed.“You might have some misunderstandings about him.”

He was far from the aloof man she had described, the one who didn’t linger for feelings andespecially struggled to cope with women.

“What do you mean?”

Chloe smirked. “There’s probably no man in the world who knows how to please a woman betterthan him.”

Queen Julia was sceptical. “He doesn’t look like that.” She thought that he was an emotional fool

Chloe pursed her lips, and murmured, “He’s the one who got me that cat at Miss Fiona’s birthdayparty”

Queen Julia was surprised.
