Chapter 1677
Why did Ava and her daughters, Barbara, and Becky, feel such strong resentment towards Yasmine and Chloe?
Their presence threatened the luxury and opulence Ava and her daughters were currently enjoying
Even if Ava were to plead with Yasmine, expressing how she was forced into her past actions and had been led
astray, and even if Yasmine were to forgive her, their lives would still change They could continue to reside in the
palace and enjoy a life of extravagance, but with Yasmine and Chloe in the picture, their status would inevitably
decline
That was because, in Y Country, social hierarchy was deeply ingrained Positions of authority were clearly
distinguished. Those of lower rank were inevitably inferior to those of higher rank, and always expected to flatter
and ingratiate themselves.
Once such a concept took root, it naturally influenced every aspect of life. For example, the eldest son in a family
was always respected more than the second son in socialite gatherings, only the eldest daughters were invited, not
the younger ones. This applied even if they were born of the same
mother c2
So, it was no surprise that Becky, who was blissfully ignorant, despised Chloe, the sudden new arrival. She had
watched Barbara attend numerous socialite gatherings, and on good days, she might have even been invited to join
Some privileges of being the eldest daughter were extended to her by their mother to appease her
But Chloe’s arrival meant that even Barbara could no longer enjoy the prestige of being Y Country’s eldest princess.
Becky’s situation was even worse So how could she possibly like Chloe?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBecky’s thoughts were rather superficial.
Barbara, on the other hand, was fixated on the dress Chloe was wearing that day. The dress, adorned with
diamonds and jewels, and embroidered with a phoenix made of exquisite rubies and sapphires, made Chloe look
like a majestic bird ready to take flight.
Barbara knew that Queen Julia was a woman of elegance who had a fondness for different cultures. She
understood what the phoenix represented and was well aware of what was coming
Soon, Chloe would be standing before the world in that dress, flaunting her authentic royal status in Y Country At
that time, Barbara would become the laughingstock of everyone
In Y Country, where class consciousness was deeply rooted, Barbara used to become a target of ridicule. The once
untouchable socialite would become the subject of gossip and derision.
In this world, you could claw your way up from nothing, but you couldn’t stand being second when you’d been at
the top. It felt just like a fall from grace
Was she at the top now? No, she wasn’t. She didn’t have the princess‘ coronation, and the throne was getting
farther away, all because of Chloe
Ava, even more so, had her eyes on the throne, which was her ultimate goal.
Why couldn’t a person be ambitious? Because she was ambitious, she’d lived a life of prosperity and luxury for over
thirty years. She’d been a princess for so long, so why couldn’t she dream of ascending to the throne? If it weren’t
for Yasmine and Chloe, she would have had the throne within her grasp
The three women harbored their own thoughts, yet their common enemy was Yasmine and Chloe.
Chloe had been touring the palace for a few days, receiving top–notch treatment. Queen Julia’s affection for her
was unhidden. Anything Chloe showed interest in was hers without question. She was given the best room in the
palace, the closest to the queen’s. The best royal chefs prepared her meals Anything new or exciting was always
offered to Chloe first, and Chloe accepted all of this without hesitation.
Her attitude was one of a true princess, and it infuriated Ava and her daughters. Days went by, and their patience
wore thin, but Chloe continued to do as she pleased, not giving a thought to their feelings. If it weren’t for Ava and
Barbara holding her back, Becky would have confronted Chloe multiple times by now
“Why are you stopping me? I’ve had enough of that little brat! Look at how grandmother is spoiling her! She always
gets the best of everything, and she gets it quick It wasn’t like this before Now, we either get nothing or have to
pick from her leftovers. Why? Because of some lowly woman who’s been gallivanting around outside? Why does
she get to lord over us?“”
What was most intolerable was the fact that Chloe had once broken her nose if it weren’t for their grandmother
taking her to have it foed, she would still be ugly Thinking about it, the grudge between her and Chloe was
irreconcilable
“You know that grandmother is pampering her so whats the fuss about?” Ava was frustrated, having to keep an eye
on her simple–minded daughter was getting on her nerves
Becky was fuming, and her eyes were red from anger “What is grandmother thinking? She recognizes an outsider
as her granddaughter because of silly song? She must be stupid! Even a fool wouldn’t believe that Mom, can’t we
just have Chloe and grandmother do a DNA test 79”
Ava’s face turned sour A DNA test would only make things worse Suddenly, her eyes flickered and her expression
slowly improved

wish or something?”
Becky pursed her lips, knowing she had overstepped, but she still felt indignant. Wasn’t it true that their
grandmother was dumb? But eeeing Avas stern look, she didn’t dare to say another word. She had to swallow her
anger if things continued like this, she would go crazy in a few days.
However it didn’t take a few days
The next day, when they entered the palace and heard what Queen Julia said to Chloe, their patience had nearly
reached its Hersit.
“The day after tomorrow is Fionas birthday. the granddaughter of the Grand Duke Dubonnet An invitation has just
been specially delivered for you. Many children of high–ranking officials will attend the event. You should go and get
acquainted with them. After all, these are the people you’ll be frequently associating with in the future”
These words instantly stirred a storm in the hearts of the three women Barbara’s teeth clenched together so
tightly, they were nearly ground to dust She was supposed to attend this banqueti
The look on Ava’s face couldn’t hide her displeasure.
For those who didn’t know, Duke Dubonnet was the highest–ranking official in the Y Country, excluding the royal
family. At his granddaughter’s birthday. the attendees would no doubt be the majority of the high–ranking officials
and their families from the Y Country
When the Queen mentioned that these were the people Chloe would be frequently associating with, did that mean
her mother intended to pass the throne to Chloe?!
Although she had speculated it before, the reality of it now was quite unsettling

Did she really make that decision?
