The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1678

Did she really make that decision?

Ava clenched her teeth bitterly. The princess' coronation hadn't even taken place yet, and she was already considering passing the throne to Chloe?

Her eyes were filled with evilness as she furrowed her brow in deep thought. After a moment, her eyes widened, and she suddenly looked up at Queen Julia.

Could it be... Was her mother planning to pass the throne to Chloe during the princess' coronation?!

Chloe stood beside Queen Julia, her peripheral vision capturing Ava's expression. A small smile curled at the corner of her lips.

"Alright, I understand," Chloe responded.d2

Queen Julia smiled satisfactorily. "Duke Dubonnet is the highest-ranking duke in our Y Country. Talk to him more during the event. I believe he would be happy to share some things with you. However, remember to respect him as he is an important figure in our country. Don't neglect him."

Chloe nodded. "Yes, I will be careful."

"Good. That's settled then."

From beginning to end, Ava, Barbara, and Becky remained on one side, unnoticed. Barbara's face turned pale with anger.

At a moment when Ava was not paying attention, Becky charged forward, arguing loudly. "Grandma, what about us? It was always my sister who was invited before. Why is Chloe the only one invited now? Duke Dubonnet's residence is an important place. She's so ignorant. What if she annoys him? We can't afford to get ambarrassed."

Ava couldn't stop Becky in time, and her face turned pale as soon as the words were spoken.

This troublemaker!

Queen Julia's expression indeed darkened. Her gaze on Becky was stern and grim. "Do you think you haven't embarrassed yourself enough?"

"I..." Becky's face turned pale, and she realized that Queen Julia was not pleased. She shrank her neck and instinctively moved backward.

Ever since the last state dinner, her grandmother's attitude towards her had sharply declined.

Talk about embarrassment, even thinking about the state dinner made her wish she could crawl into a hole.

"…But… but why does Chloe get to go alone? She's just a commoner. What gives her the right to represent the royal family at the duke's granddaughter's birthday party?!"

Queen Julia had just reacted to Becky's words, and Chloe had noticed, but she also understood that Ava, Barbara, and Becky's companionship over the years was an unbreakable bond. She and her mother had missed out on too much.

"Don't hold it against her?" Chloe slowly began, looking straight into Ava's eyes. "When have I ever truly held anything against her? But even with the biggest heart, I can't tolerate her making my life miserable every day with snide comments. She's right, compared to you, who were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, I am indeed a commoner."

Becky saw Chloe admitting it and couldn't help but mumble, "At least she knows."

Chloe chuckled coldly. "If Ms. Ava had some self-awareness, you would keep her daughter in check! Otherwise… why would I become the commoner your daughter speaks of, and why was your daughter born into the luxurious life of a princess? This completely reversed life of ours, I don't mind having a good talk with you or grandma about it!"

Ava's face changed dramatically, and her body shivered with cold. She glanced at Queen Julia, whom she had tearfully apologized to after the banquet had ended. Her mother didn't say she wouldn't forgive her, but there was an undeniably cold detachment in her.

"You're right. Today it was Becky who spoke out of turn, and I apologize on her behalf."

"I don't forgive anyone for any mistakes." Chloe stated bluntly, leaving Ava at a loss for words.

"You... you're just too arrogant," Ava stuttered. "You've only been back in the palace for a few days, and you're already stepping out of line..."
