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!
