The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

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 that offended those artists.

They’re very sensitive; even the slightest misstep can get them agitated. But it’s all good now. Becky might be

feeling a bit hard done by, but as long as the state banquet goes smoothly, everything else is secondary Barbara

managed to persuade Ava. At this point, she had to keep a low profile. As long as the state banquet proceeded

smoothly, and as long as she got through Crown Day, nothing else mattered.

However, news of the incident at the restaurant soon reached Queen Julia’s ears. The world–class artists whom

Queen Julia had sincerely invited felt insulted by Becky’s thoughtless words and even threatened 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 a world–class

event!

“My granddaughter actually called the top artists buskers, knocked over guests‘ meals twice, and even said they

didn’t deserve to eat the royal food. This is just too much! Someone, bring Becky here, 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 her personally 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’t worry; 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 next to him, shake

his head helplessly.

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

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 then Princess Becky was also

severely humiliated. Mrs. Harper had clearly turned the tables, but he has to 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 his woman to bully

others.

When Becky was summoned by the attendant, she was crying to Ava, but her tears immediately stopped 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 her nose and

suddenly threw them on the table.

Becky shrank back a bit. From the moment she entered the room, she felt that something was wrong. The whole

room seemed to be filled with suffocating cold air, and a strong aura emanated from 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–class artists, 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 a chance to ask

what exactly had happened. The sudden surge of anger made her head spin. How could she have such a foolish

daughter?!

Queen Julia continued, “You provoked others for no reason, knocked over guests‘ meals twice. You claimed that the

guests didn’t deserve to eat the royal food, and that you were being charitable by feeding 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 spoiled by 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 gently stroking 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 in her 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 during these 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 it all 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 without understanding the situation

made her feel even more upset. “Grandma, it was that woman who started trouble with me first in P City. She

slapped me several times, and I just can’t help but get angry 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
