The Enticing CEO's Chosen Bride novel Chapter 1710

Ava 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 syllable so deliberate that it sent shivers down the spine.

Ava's head buzzed and she glared at Chloe, her voice shrill, "What gives you the right to do this!"

"Well..."d2

"Queen Julia!" Lea's sudden cry of agony made Chloe stiffen. She turned to see Queen Julia slumped unconscious on her throne.

Chloe's 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 looking completely 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 fainted.

-

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 accumulated.

Now, after Becky's repeated transgressions, all the energy the Queen had been holding onto collapsed. She lay unconscious for nearly an hour without any sign of coming 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," Chloe 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 blame yourself, princess. The Queen would blame herself even more if she knew how you felt."

Chloe looked up at Lea.

"Ever since you left, the Queen has been blaming 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 for lavishing 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 blame 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?"
