The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1709

"Mother!"

"Grandma!"

"Grandma!"

The mother and daughters were as frightened and panicked as they could be at the moment.

Chloe, standing nearby, raised an eyebrow, feeling a twinge of regret.

It had only just begun, and yet they were already receiving their just desserts. It seemed unfair to the pain her mother had suffered in the past. But now, she knew she needed to exercise restraint.d2

If she acted solely on her own wishes, she risked putting her grandmother in an unjust and embarrassing position. She was not only her grandmother, but also the Queen of the Y Country, and all her life, everyone had been accommodating her. It was not easy for her to put up with it so far.

Queen Julia's face was stern, but her eyes held a clear expression of sorrow and regret. After so many years together, how could she feel nothing at all when she made this decision? Chloe had known this from the start. But if Ava and her daughters could behave themselves, she could stand their existence. Unfortunately, their actions weren't something she could simply ignore or forgive.

They had tried to kill Chole and her mother. Their relationship had become a matter of life and death. Simply stripping them of their princess titles was too lenient. Chloe's hands, resting at her sides, tightened slightly.

She was not satisfied, but as a Queen, her grandmother had far too many considerations.

"Mother, can you really bear to do this? This has nothing to do with us. Barbara and Becky have grown up under your care, and everyone knows how much they love you. This is unfair to them; it will break their hearts. If you take away their titles as princesses, how can they face others?" Ava pleaded tearfully.

Queen Julia's face was etched with grief, her hand gripping the armrest of her chair trembling. "All you know is to use those two kids as your shields."

Ava was taken aback, never expecting that her usually effective tactic would fail today. However, Barbara and Becky were indeed her only trump cards. At this point, she could only wail and sob on the floor. "Can you really bear it, mother?! They are your granddaughters."

Ava seemed to truly be on the brink of despair, her sorrow and helplessness engulfing her.

Chloe stood silently to the side, coldly observing the scene before her.

"Haven't I given you enough over these years? Did you think that because I adopted you, you could cling to me for life?!"

Ava was too stunned to even cry. Once Queen Julia made up her mind, there was rarely any chance of changing it.

Seeing Ava fall silent, Barbara feared she was giving up and hurriedly spoke up with a distressed expression, "Grandma, we love you so much. How could we do anything to hurt you? This has nothing to do with us."

"Even if it truly has nothing to do with you, you are no longer deserving of the title of princesses."

Queen Julia no longer wanted to argue with them, her statement silencing any attempted rebuttals.

Barbara stared at Queen Julia in disbelief. "Grandma."

"Enough! Enough!" Queen Julia rose to her feet, her aged face reflecting her frustration and fatigue. "Lea, spread the word. Ava, Barbara, and Becky are no longer princesses of the royal family. The royal family of the Y Country will only have Yasmine and Chloe as princesses from now on."

"Yes."

Becky's eyes widened in shock. "I don't want to stop being a princess. Grandma, you're so biased. We've been serving you for so many years, and now that your biological granddaughter is back, you're abandoning us!"

Chloe narrowed her eyes, looking towards Becky. Having enjoyed the prestige of being a princess for so many years, wouldn't she be the laughing stock if she were to lose her title now?

Becky continued, "If it weren't for us constantly pleasing you, could you have lived healthily till now?! You... You are so ungrateful. You're not fit to be a Queen."
