The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride

Chapter 1420

Becky’s eyes widened Was she saying she wouldn’t attend the state banquet?! Fury coursed through her. “Are you

threatening me?”

“If you think so, then yeah.” Chloe replied without further explanation, going along with Becky’s assertion.

Chloe not attending the banquet? Wendy would love that

What was the state banquet? It was where all the bigshots from around the world would be there. If Chloe did a

good job and impressed them, who knew what opportunities might come her way? Besides, when word got back

home, she would be on cloud nine

But if she didn’t attend due to last minute issues, Chloe would end up the laughingstock.

Wendy spoke softly. “Chloe, you can’t just decide whether to attend the state banquet on a whim. The program has

been arranged. How can you back out at this point?”

Chloe glanced at Wendy, a smirk in her eyes.

Wendy continued, “I know you never care what others think, but if you’re going to back out, you should at least let

the production team know.”

Becky sneered. “You’re so full of yourself. If you don’t want to attend, then don’t. The world will keep turning

without you. If you don’t perform, there are plenty of people who will. It’s not a big deal. I can take care of it with

just a few words.”

Chloe chuckled and nodded, her voice indifferent, “Oh, is that so?”

Becky was so mad she could barely think straight. She had been bullied enough by Chloe in P City, and she wouldn’t

allow it to happen again now that they were in Y Country

Was she supposed to clean up this banquet hall? She had never washed a dish in her life, let alone do this kind of

dirty work. Dream on!

“Well in that case, Princess Becky, please also arrange for my performance to be cancelled. The somewhat older

man said, his voice deep and calm.

Both Wendy and Becky froze.

“Yeah, since you can arrange things so easily, cancel my performance too.”

“And mine. 1 never wanted to perform here in the first place.”

“The Princess of Y Country has a lot of power and capability. Even though we won’t be attending the banquet, we

have learned a lot about the Y Country’s royal family. Performing in such a country would be an insult to us. Go

ahead and cancel our performances too.” The speaker, the leader of an orchestra, declared

“And us too…”

Becky started to panic as she watched the entire banquet hall beginning to stir in protest. Wendy appeared unwell

as well. Becky’s actions were quite foolish. Even after Chloe changed the topic, Becky still wanted to challenge her.

That was enough!

However, Barbara considered Wendy equally unintelligent. Hopelessly dumb! She had easily fallen into a trap.

Barbara knew that once these people made up their minds, they wouldn’t easily change, but with the state banquet

being such an important event, any mistakes were unacceptable.

Mishaps would be unacceptable, especially since the Queen was about to abdicate. What would the consequences

be if the Queen found out that all of this was caused by Becky?

Barbara had always maintained the attributes expected of a princess, including manners, speech, etiquette, and

social interactions. She even embraced subjects she might not have favored, all to fulfill her role as a princess.

Although she wasn’t the Queen’s biological granddaughter, the Queen had never raised the issue in all these years.

Moreover, Y Country’s hereditary system had led to dissatisfaction among certain factions. This could have severe

consequences if someone less favorable inherites the throne.

Over the years, Barbara had consistently projected a favorable public image as a princess, amassing numerous

supporters. If nothing went wrong, she was undoubtedly a strong candidate for the throne. If she allowed today’s

events to unfold unchecked and the Queen discovered them, the consequences would be dire, thanks to this

imbecile!

“On behalf of my younger sister, I apologize to you all. She’s young and impulsive, and has some

misunderstandings about Ms. Chloe. I hope you won’t be too harsh on her. She alone does not represent the entire

Y Country royal family. I think everyone is very clear about Queen Julia’s reputation in our Y Country and

internationally. Please, I’d like to get your help to make the state banquet go smoothly for Queen Julia. Also, Ms.

Chloe, I sincerely apologize to you again for Becky’s words and actions just now.” Barbara was humble and polite

when she spoke, with an apologetic smile on her face, bowing at everyone.

When it came to offering a perfect apology, Barbara always knew how to do it.

Chloe’s eyebrows twitched slightly as she turned to look at Barbara, who was smiling at her.

“Ms Chloe, what do you think?” Barbara asked once more. Chloe looked at her silently for a moment. The two–

locked eyes in a standoff, neither willing to back. down first

Chloe’s lips curled up slightly Her gaze remained fixed on Barbara as she said lightly, “Of course, I don’t want to

create a scene. As for my opinion…” She paused, glancing over at Becky, who appeared flushed yet defiant. Chloe

continued slowly, “As I mentioned earlier, I’m in a terrible mood! When I’m feeling this way, I doubt my stage

performance will be any good. I believe the other guests wouldn’t deliver satisfactory performances either when

they are feeling down. Being top artists globally, they would never allow any flaws in their image. If their

performance is affected by their mood, it would damage their reputation at the state banquet. Isn’t that a loselose

situation?”

“Of course, we want to perform exceptionally well for Queen Julia; we just don’t know if someone will give us the

opportunity.” Chloe’s words resonated with the artists in the room, all of whom were considered top–notch

However, Barbara’s facial expression noticeably stiffened as she focused on Chloe’s eyes, her gaze slightly

tightening Chloe’s point was that, regardless of what she said here, she wouldn’t change her mind because of

Barbara’s sake. She would only do it for Queen Julia.

While they certainly wanted to deliver a stellar performance for the Queen, the question remained whether she

would permit it.

Now, Chloe was emphasizing that Barbara and Becky wouldn’t allow them to give their best for Queen Julia.

How could she make such a statement!
