The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1424

Chapter 1424 

Ava’s hands were shaking uncontrollably as she watched Becky get knocked to the ground, still not quite grasping the situation. Her heart was trembling even more under the weight of her rage. 

Not for any other reason. Just because the phrase, “her mother“, Becky mentioned which had instantly ignited the fury deep within her! 

How dare she mention Yasmine here? How dare she? 

The one she had been running from her whole life, the one she’d been so careful to conceal her whole life. She didn’t even dare to mention that person’s name, but her daughter casually let slip a word, nearly revealing a secret she had hidden for almost 40 years. 

What the hell was she trying to do? Go tell the Queen and let the Queen avenge her? And then what? 

The Queen wouldn’t have to think too hard to connect the dots to Yasmine and Chloe. How could she face the lie she had told all those years ago? 

She knew the Queen was yearning for her own daughter her whole life. She knew Yasmine was alive and well, yet she told her she was dead, and kept it from her for half her life. If the truth were to came out, how was she going to explain to the Queen? 

Would her princess status and everything she had disappear just like that? 

She couldn’t mention Yasmine! Especially not in front of the Queen! What a foolish girl! How did she end up with such a useless child!? 

Queen Julia was taken aback by Ava’s sudden outburst and could clearly see her anger and panic. She slowly turned her head, squinting her eyes toward Ava. “Ava, are you nervous?” 

She casually pointed out Ava’s current state, and Ava’s eyes flashed uncontrollably with tension. 

Her body swayed, her lips trembled, and her mouth became dry. “I…” 

“Why are you nervous?” Queen Julia asked coldly. 

Ava’s legs under her long skirt were also trembling; she could barely stand. She swallowed, her throat so dry it felt like it was about to split 

“Mom, I’m not. it was Becky, she sneaked off to P City and caused a mess. I was afraid you’d be angry. Now, things are getting worse.” Ava came up with a somewhat reasonable excuse, although stuttering, but it should be clear enough. 

Queen Julia stared at her quietly. Ava didn’t dare to meet her gaze, keeping her head down. Her whole body trembled with tension, especially knowing that Queen Julia’s gaze was fixed on her. 

Becky’s crying filled the room, its sound particularly piercing. 

Finally, Queen Julia looked away and turned her gaze to Becky. “Anyway, now is a crucial moment for the state banquet. We absolutely cannot afford any mistakes! You, as a princess of the royal family, what’s the meaning of this arrogant attitude in front of so many artists? Do you know what would happen if those artists didn’t show up at the state banquet? The entire royal family of Y Country would become the laughingstock of the world! Becky, haven’t you considered these basic things? How could you not know about such an important matter?!” 

Becky was crying; she knew very early she had done something wrong today, and already got a scolding from Barbara. Now, she got slapped by her mother and faced her grandma’s reprimand. She had done so many dirty jobs today, yet no one was there to comfort or understand her! At that moment, her heart was filled with intense dissatisfaction and resentment. 

Queen Julia fully understood her attitude at the moment upon seeing her expression. “You’re so reckless, arrogant, and irrational. You don’t know how to repent! You’re grounded for a month! Relearn all about morality and etiquette!” 

Upon hearing this, Becky suddenly looked up at her and, “No, grandma, I want to go to the state banquet.” 

“Don’t you understand what I’m saying?” Queen Julia asked. 

Ava quickly responded, “I’ll have someone take her away immediately!” 

Queen Julia didn’t mention the recent incident again. Ava breathed a sigh of relief, only hoping that Becky would learn her lesson. 

“Wait.” As Ava was about to pull Becky up from the floor, Queen Julia’s voice rang out again. 

She looked up and saw Queen Julia turn her head to address Lea, saying, “Go and fetch Mrs. Harper. Have Becky apologize to her.” 

Ava’s hand holding Becky’s arm suddenly tightened. “I won’t!” Becky yelled out suddenly. 

Queen Julia’s eyebrows furrowed, and Lea glanced at her watch, saying, “The state banquet is about to start. You should get ready to leave.” 

Queen Julia also glanced at the clock, then nodded, “Then take her away first!” 

A hint of unwillingness flashed in Becky’s eyes, but in the end, Ava forcefully dragged her out. 

Ten minutes later, Ava tried to get Becky into the car, but Becky broke free. 

“Becky!” Ava yelled 

“You hit me! I hate you! Why should I apologize to that woman? She’s only invited to play the piano on stage! I can play the piano too!! I’d rather see if she can turn the plane piece into a tune that only a god can hear?!” After saying that, Becky picked up her skirt and ran off. 

Ava didn’t react in time, it was too late to grab her. “Becky!!” Ava screamed.
