Chapter 1710
Ave moved her lips, looking up at Queen Julia seated on her throne. “Mother
“Take her away” Chloe interrupted her coldly

“You.”
“One more word, and it’ll be a death sentence.” Chloe’s words came out slowly, each syble so
deliberate that it sent shivers down the spine Ava’s head buzzed and she red at Chloe, her voice
shrill, “What gives you the right to do this!“c2
“Well
“Queen Julia Lea’s sudden cry of agony made Chloe stiffen. She turned to see Queen Julia
slumped unconscious on her throne.
Chices face darkened. She swiftly directed her gaze to two guards, “Carry the Queen to her
chambers. You go get the doctors. The rest of you take Becky away, and Nate, bring Jane here”
Having calmly issued her orders, she followed the guards carrying Queen Julia to the nearest
lounge
This sudden turn of events left Ava and Barbara lookingpletely ashen. If word got out that
Queen Julia had fainted, it would be enough to stir up the whole country
More importantly, she passed out from Becky’s direct anger The Queen, beloved by her people after
years of ruling the Y Country, now she got so furious with Becky that she famted
Despite maintaining her health over the years, the Queen’s age could not be denied Years of ruling
had taken their toll, and even though she had taken care of her health, countless minor ailments
had umted
Now, after Becky’s repeated transgressions, all the energy the Queen had been holding onto
copsed. Shey unconscious for nearly an hour without any sign ofing around
“She’s such a tough woman, bearing all these burdens for so many years. It’s beyond what most
people could handle. I wonder what kept her going Chice sat quietly on the edge of the bed,
listening to Jane’s words and the eyes staring into Queen Julia fluttered softly. Chloe bit her lower
lip, her eyes closed as she took a deep breath
Lea, standing by her side, said gently, “Don’t me yourself, princess The Queen would me
herself even more if she knew how you felt.”
Chloe looked up at Lea
“Ever since you left, the Queen has been ming herself. She feels that if she hadn’t adopted Prin.
Ava you and your mother wouldn’t have suffered as you did She couldn’t forgive herself forvishing
love on them all these years. When she found out about Princess Yasmine’s death, she really
poured all her love for Princess Yasmine into Ms Ava, even bestowing on her and her daughters the
title of princess, despite them not being of royal blood. If you me yourself, she might feel even
more guilty The Queen loves you very much, and her inner struggle is just as intense.”
Chloe’s eyes trembled slightly, a lump forming in her throat
Lea sighed. It’s fate”
The room fell silent Jane, a seasoned doctor, couldn’t stand the oppressive atmosphere. It’s just the
result of years of intensive work. As long as she rests and takes care of herself, she’ll be okay It’s
not the end of the world, you know. Can you all stop being so sad?”
“And you, Mrs. Harper, watch your emotions You’ve been very unstable these past few days, you
know?!”
Jane’s words caused Chloe to take a hard, deep breath before opening her eyes and looking to
Jane to confirm, “So she’ll be okay if she has a good rest?”
Jane raised an eyebrow. ‘Are you doubting me?”
Chloe’s shoulders rxed a bit
After a few seconds of silence, she turned to Lea, ‘Should we keep the Queen’s fainting a secret?”
Lea shook her head “There was no deliberate order to cover it up, and the pce is full of people
that I’m afraid we won’t be able to keep it under wraps She sighed. “She’s held on for so many
years, and now that you’re back, she was about to retire. There’s no point in hiding it. In fact, it’s
good for her to finally take a break.”
Chloe nodded, falling silent for a moment. “Let it be then.”
Lea looked at her in confusion, unsure of what was going on, but nodded in silence.
The news couldn’t be kept under wraps.
The scandal at Fiona’s birthday partyst night had already set tongues wagging. The satirical
headlines about Barbara and Ava were all over the morning papers. By mid–morning, news of
Queen Julia’s fainting had spread.
Just as Ava and Barbara had feared, the entire nation was shocked.
“Did something happen?”
“Last night, those two princesses caused a scene at the Dubo family’s party. The morning
papers didn’t hold back their satire. The Queen must have found out what we all know”
“Yeah, it was a big deal. They must have had to apologize to the Queen today, right? The Queen
must have been angry.”
They’ve lost all the royal family’s dignity. How could the Queen not be angry?”
“No, no, no. The news from the pce is that those three have been stripped of their princess titles.
The younger daughter couldn’t stand it and cursed the Queen, saying that she had lived too long
and didn’t deserve to be the Queen of the Y Country. That’s why she fainted.”
“My God, this Becky, damn.”
“And I heard that the new princess had a close call on her way to Fiona’s birthday party yesterday. It
was all arranged by those three.”
All these details somehow circted throughout the pce and the entire Y Country. In no time at
all, the three women became the hottest topic of conversation.
When dukes and high officials beganing to the pce to inquire about the Queen’s condition,
Chloe realized how much the news had spread. She hadn’t exactly been secretive, but she hadn’t
been tant either She did have ns, but those were for after her grandmother woke up
However, it didn’t take long for her to figure it out The ever–shrewd Nate had been there, and this
had his fingerprints all over it
She couldn’t help but smirk. With them around, she was spared a lot of trouble. They always knew
what her next move would be
This time, the lesson was harsh enough to strip her and her daughters of so much. Not just their
princess titles. No one knew better than her the bitter taste of a tarnished reputation
Their image that they had built up over the years in Y Country had now spectacrly copsed, and
theirwork was inevitably going to take a hit
She had intended to peel themyer byyer, but this time, she had hit them where it hurt.
