Chapter 1274
“… I want to tell you that Ms. Summers‘ mom wants to see you…” The servant reiterated what he had just said in a
crisp and clear manner.
Ava clenched her teeth tightly, her delicate face slightly contorted. After hanging up the phone, she closed her eyes
deeply. She was even more infuriated by the trouble that Rhys and Becky had caused her this time.
Especially Becky, had she gone mad, not knowing the right time and place? Look at what happened with Grace and
Wendy in the past. Yet, she chose to support them at such a crucial moment. And so openly? Did she want to
appear noble by doing so?
She was so angry that her whole body was trembling, and she wished she could crush the phone in her hand.
Becky, the idiot!
But now that Yasmine wanted to see her, what should she do?
“Mom, what are you scared of right now?”
Barbara had no idea what Yasmine was hiding, but wasn’t it time to consider how to distance herself from Grace
and Wendy? But the way she looked now, it was obvious that she was scared of something.
Ava seemed to have been pricked by something. She came back to her senses abruptly, her face somewhat
uneasy, moved to sit on the couch with her back to Barbara, and pinched her brow.
“Scared of what? Becky has become the victim of a grievous injustice abroad, and now she’s locked herself in her
room and won’t come out, I’m worried she’ll do something stupid.”
“Becky would do something stupid?” Barbara laughed as if she had heard a joke, “Don’t worry, I bet she’s now
locking herself in her room thinking about how to fight back.”

The news from P City had long reached Y Country. This was a critical moment, she couldn’t back down.
After listening to Barbara’s words, Ava’s headache worsened. This was exactly what she had been most worried
about. If Becky provoked that mother and daughter pair again, she would really go crazy!
Back in her room, she thought over and over again and finally picked up the phone.
“Hello?”
“Yasmine is back. Did you know that?!”
“How could I not know?” The man on the other end was full of annoyance, “I need to settle the score with her for
making me upset and flustered.”
Ava pursed her lips, “Anyway, her coming back this time is very disadvantageous to me, you should know what to
do.”
“Alright, even if you could let her go, I wouldn’t.”
Just as Barbara said, Becky locked herself in her room, pondering over how to get justice from Chloe. But now she
had no idea where to find Chloe. She only knew that Chloe’s Starlight International had caused a major failure for
their brand RM at a fashion show not long ago. Thinking of this, her disgust and hatred for Chloe grew even deeper.
She and Chloe were clearly born to be enemies.
Wendy’s original injury had not recovered. She had insisted on attending the engagement banquet last night, and
as a result, she was treated in such a way again. Her plan with Presley to forcedly get engaged with Damon was
exposed, and now the online public opinion was in chaos. Damon’s few positive impressions of her had been
shattered.
In addition to her father’s anger towards them, which was temporarily shelved due to the current turmoil in the
company, it seemed like they might not have any good days ahead.
Even if her father wasn’t dealing with them now, once things stabilized, it would be the time for him to start dealing
with them.
All the things came together at once, made Wendy’s condition worsen. The high fever recurred and she had to lie in
bed.
“Mom, did you really undergo an induced labor to give birth to me back then? How did Alicia die? Does it have
anything to do with you? I am not the first child of the Alonso family, but Phoebe is, right?”
At this moment, Wendy was filled with anguish. Her eyes were fixed on the ceiling, and she felt utterly drained. She
had once taken pride in her identity, but she hadn’t anticipated that it would come at such a dirty cost.
“No, you are the first child of the Alonso family. Alicia is dead, so what? Why does her death have to be linked to
me?! Is it that whoever has a conflict with me, anything that happens to them is related to me?!” Grace vehemently
denied. She didn’t want to mention anything about that year.
God knew how panicky she was inside. For her, all the things that happened in those years were a stain on her life.
She had worked so hard to hide, to cover up, and finally, she had become the illustrious lady of the Alonso family.
Those things, it would be best if they all turned into ashes and disappeared forever. But that woman who just came
back had found out her secrets.
Wendy’s gaze from the ceiling slowly moved to Grace. “So have you figured out how to make dad trust you?” Now
the important thing was whether Father believed it or not.
After listening, Grace was silent for a while, then suddenly laughed, “You don’t have to worry about this.”
Wendy’s stiff heart softened a little as she took in Grace’s confident and unruffled demeanor.

“What do you mean?”
Grace smiled and said, “Do you think there were no rumors about me online back then? How could the people of
the Alonso family not have doubted me, but in the end, they didn’t delve into this matter, and I eventually replaced
Alicia and became the lady of the Alonso family…”
Wendy hesitated for a moment, and her eyes suddenly lit up, “You mean Princess Ava?”
Grace nodded, “In fact, over these years, Princess Ava has provided a lot of convenience and benefits to the Alonso
family. That is to say, as long as Princess Ava is your aunt for a day, our status in the Alonso family will never be
shaken. And those rumors on the Internet, your father will surely help to solve them. Because this matter concerns
the reputation of the Alonso family, he has to take care of it. The Alonso family is actually your support, so you can
rest assured to recover from your illness. Don’t read those things on the Internet, and don’t get affected by those
things. When the storm calms down, you will still be the first child of the Alonso family, the future head of the
family. These identities won’t change, and the previous rumors will naturally be debunked.”
Wendy finally breathed a sigh of relief. Right now, the most important thing was to get over the current hurdles.
Hearing her mom’s words, she felt a whole lot of comfort. Exactly, what she needed now was to focus on
recovering from her injuries, wait for the storm to settle, wait for the public’s attention to shift away from these
scandals, and once she had fully healed, she could settle the old scores with Chloe.
If Chloe thought she can treat the Alonso family as her own property, she’d rather take her down first.
Every time she thought of Chloe, Wendy was filled with deep hatred. All the shame and pain were caused by her.
She was gonna make Chloe pay twice as much!
Her hatred was so deep in her eyes that even Grace couldn’t help but shiver. But it was precisely because of desires
that anger arose, along with a sense of injustice, which continually motivated oneself to strive.
There was nothing wrong with fighting for what you want.
It was just a pity…
