Chapter 1700
The more they talked now, the more they would only make themselves a laughing stock in front of everyone.
Clear up misunderstandings? Chloe had never thought about giving them an escape route. She was determined to
make them a fool of themselves tonight.
And now, she just stood by, her facial expression hidden beneath her lowered brows. That posture, with her head
slightly lowered, made her look like a meek and innocent victim, wronged and unable to voice her anger.
There were no words to describe Barbara’s anger and humiliation at this moment. She knew it was all a set–up by
Chloe.
Chloe used to be straightforward, but now she could even play the hypocrite.
The crowd beneath the stage was whispering about something, many refraining from speaking too loudly due to
the princess‘ status, but all of them were pointing fingers at Barbara and Becky, who stood on the stage, uncertain
how to salvage their reputation d2
If Chloe had taken a step back at this moment, even just expressing a few words to ease the situation, it might have
alleviated their embarrassment. At the very least, it could have helped to diffuse the situation and allow them to
gracefully step down from the spotlight. But Chloe, who had just delivered a long speech, was now refusing to say a
word.
However, as ruthless as Chloe was, Fiona was even more so. Holding a kitten in one hand, she walked up to Chloe
and firmly grabbed her wrist, saying in a rough tone. “Chloe, let’s go. If they want to steal the limelight here, I’ll give
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtit to them. They must be desperate for popularity.”
Chloe was somewhat surprised that Fiona would act so impulsively, but she didn’t resist and let Fiona lead her away
Barbara and Becky, already embarrassed, were now left on the stage under the scrutiny of everyone, feeling more
humiliated than ever. Everyone was watching them, their expressions all negative and mocking.
Barbara bit the inside of her cheek hard, the taste of blood spreading in her mouth. She had never been so
humiliated in her life.
Chloe was pulled away by Fiona to her room backstage.
Fiona sat on the bed, cradling the newly acquired kitten, her attention focused entirely on the adorable creature in
her arms. It was unclear whether she was still angry.
Chloe stood by, thinking she should apologize to Fiona. After all, she did put Fiona in a difficult position, leading to
this current situation “Sorry…”
“Hahaha, that was so satisfying, I finally got to vent all the anger I’ve been holding in for years. Barbara’s deflated
look is so gratifying no matter how I look at it. Thanks, Princess Chloe, if it wasn’t for you, I would have taken my
resentment to the grave. I’ve known for a long time how hypocritical and vain those two sisters are, but I’ve never
had the chance to expose their pretentiousnes Today was s0 satisfying. Did you see their faces? Especially Barbara,
always acting like a graceful and generous princess, now let’s see how she keep up the act hahaha.”
Chloe didn’t know how to reply.
Fiona was holding the kitten and rolling around on the bed, laughing so hard she was gasping for breath. Chloe
didn’t say anything for long time. This lady was also a badass.
She couldn’t imagine how Barbara and Becky, left in the banquet hall, would save their dignity. They really
embarrassed themselves today But they brought it on themselves, as they were the ones intruding uninvited
Raising an eyebrow, she looked at the kitten in Fiona’s arms and then subtly curved her lips.
The credit for tonight’s drama was all on Damon. Whether it was the clothes or the gifts, it seemed that he hit the
nail on the head for the birthday girl today.
Without these two things, she thought, there wouldn’t be Fiona’s favor and subsequent cooperation. With this in
mind, she let out a sigh, walked to the window, and sat down on the sofa next to it, watching Fiona laugh so
carelessly.
“Haven’t you ever thought about what will happen in the future? You totally embarrassed themselves today, and
they might retaliate in other ways later.”
As the laughter gradually subsided, Fiona sat up from the bed. “How? Do they even have the ability? And would
they dare? Today’s incident was so big, and if anything happens to me, they’d be the first suspects. You can rest
assured, they value their status as princesses more than their lives. They’ve already lost their dignity today, and
they wouldn’t dare to stir up more trouble, unless they don’t want to be princesses anymore.”
Hearing this, Chloe nodded, “That makes sense.
Fiona, with a triumphant look in her eyes, said, “Don’t think I’m as brainless as they are. I’ve been putting up with
them for years Today was my most reckless day. Being a Dubonnet is really exhausting. I have to think more than
anyone else, and yet I always have to play it safe.”
As she spoke, she let out a heavy sigh, setting aside the hand that had been petting the kitten. Her expression

women have to constantly maintain their

demeanor, carefully keeping up appearances in front of the Queen. They are always on edge, afraid of making a
misstep, yet they love to display that superior princess–like demeanor. Aren’t they tired?”
Chloe blinked, her impression of this seemingly brash young lady changed once again. It seemed that she didn’t like
this kind of life. She was a free spirit, but she had to act cautiously and was restrained. No one would like this kind
of life.
“In some people’s eyes, wealth, power, and status are more important than anything else, even freedom.”
Fiona pursed her lips, “Anyway, I won’t continue to gauge my actions based on their attitudes. And it’s not like I’m
committing a crime, why can’t I ask for freedom, right?”
Chloe smiled, “You’re absolutely right”
Freedom had nothing to do with family background; it was about personality If you were kind and just, freedom was
yours to enjoy.
Finding common ground with Chloe, Fiona smiled contentedly. She held the kitten up to Chloe, waving it slightly as
she said, “This is the best present I’ve ever received, and you’re the best person I’ve ever met. This has been the
absolute best birthday.”
Chloe smirked, “As long as you’re happy. But are you sure you don’t want to go cut the cake?”
Chloe reached out and took the kitten from Fiona’s hands. She’d been itching to do so all night.
Her eyebrows raised slightly, a strange chill flickering in her eyes. It seemed that Damon really knew how to win a
woman’s heart.
