"So, your majesty, how should we deal with the issue of Princess Ava and Barbara and Becky?" Lea's question gradually wiped the smile off of Queen Julia's face.
"Did Ava deceive me in the past? Lea."
Lea remained silent.
Queen Julia shook her head, "If it's true, I can hardly believe a little girl of seven or eight could be so cunning."
Lea found it hard to believe too. After all, kids at that age, were usually curious and unguarded, how could they know how to manipulate the Queen's attention and care?
"I don't understand why the diamond bracelet I gave to Jasmine ended up in Ava's hands. It's terrifying, Ava even lied to me that Jasmine was dead. She was so young..." Queen Julia closed her eyes, her voice trembling.
If she hadn’t been so trusting of a child's innocence, if she had been more persistent in her investigation, perhaps Jasmine would have returned to her side much sooner. Queen Julia had been deceived by a child for most of her life.
"As for Ava, we don't need to pay too much attention to her. She won't last long."
At this time, indifference was the best punishment for Ava. One day, Ava would not be able to bear it herself.
"Now the most important thing is to bring Jasmine back. I want to see my daughter. No matter what reason Ava gives, I will never forgive her."

Chloe and Damon walked towards the room Queen Julia had arranged. When Chloe reached the door and was about to unlock it with her fingerprint, Damon gently grasped her wrist and pulled her into his embrace. He lightly touched her forehead and whispered, "Did you miss me?"
Chloe's eyelashes trembled, and she didn’t dare to meet his fervent gaze.
"Hmm?" Damon's tone was threatening as he lightly pinched her waist.
Chloe laughed and avoided him, "I didn't miss you."
Damon raised an eyebrow at her and chuckled, "Then who just ran into my arms as soon as she saw me? Why is your face so red?"
Chloe's face turned even redder, and she pushed him away, "Stop it."
Damon held her hand, looked down at her blushing face and said softly, "I'm hungry."
Chloe's smile faded, and she looked up at him, "Didn't you eat on the plane?"
"It didn't taste good."
Chloe's face was full of concern, as if his hunger was a serious matter. She turned around, opened the door with her fingerprint, led Damon into the room, and then said, "You wash up and rest for a while, I'll go find you some food... Ah..."
As soon as they entered the room, Chloe was pushed against the wall by Damon and kissed deeply.
"You tricked me." Chloe took the chance to glare at Damon, accusing him of his series of deceptive actions.
However, the man's passionate kisses came at her, leaving her no opportunity to chide him. He lightly bit her lips, with such force that it seemed he was trying to suck out her soul.
Chloe couldn’t resist his sudden passion; days of longing made her fall quickly into his trap.
