Chapter 1694
Man, there’s a world of difference between being raised in the palace and climbing up from the bottom, huh?”
I thought she was going to surprise us tonight, but it looks like she just showed up in her regular clothes. A royal
princess? How could she appear in such an ordinary attire?”
Maybe she thinks this is the best she can do”
It doesn’t feel quite right, does it?”
Hearing these murmurs, Barbara and Becky, the first to arrive at the banquet hall exchanged smug glances c2
Chloe thought she could outshine the princess? She should really take a look at herself first.
Despite having seen the princess’s coronation gown, she still chose to wear a plain dress for such a grand banquet.
What a disgrace And they didn’t do anything this time. She brought it on herself
With Chloe as a stark contrast, the smiles on the sisters faces grew even more arrogant and confident
As more people came up to flatter them, the path Chloe had to walk became more congested.
This scene felt strangely familiar.
Barbara and Becky were in high spirits their smiles growing brighter by the minute
They graciously accepted all the praises, while Barbara was a bit more modest than Becky. They slowly made their
way towards the center of the banquet hall, where a figure on stage already looked less than pleased.
Fiona, the true star of the night, had once again lost all attention to Barbara and Becky At first, she didn’t care, but
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttheir constant upstaging started to get under her skin Nobody wanted to be overshadowed by others in their special
day. And it was clear to her that these sisters only attended her birthday parties to feed their vanity
Such lowly behavior
She had complained to her grandfather about it before, and this year, with a new princess, she finally had a reason
not to invite them. But damn it, they had the audacity to show up uninvited?
When they were denied entry, they actually asked her grandfather if they should be allowed in. Wearing the title of
princesses, even if they weren’t being given respect, the Dubonnet family would still have to consider Queen Julia
and the royal family.
They were sure they wouldn’t be turned away That was why they acted so shamelessly
How disgusting!
However both Barbara and Becky had one flaw: their vanity had completely clouded their judgment. They only
cared about the glory and honor they enjoyed, never considering the feelings of others. As Barbara and Becky
slowly reached the center of the banquet hall, they smiled at Fiona on stage. disregarding her obvious displeasure
They gracefully ascended the steps, their form–fitting dresses accentuating their perfect figures
As they approached Fiona, Barbara handed her a gift box first. “Happy birthday, Miss Fiona,” she said sweetly
Fiona glanced at the gift box and took it, intending to throw it into the pile of gifts in the corner without a second
look. Seeing this, Barbara hurriedly said. “Fiona, aren’t you going to open it?”
Fiona frowned and glared at Barbara Just as she was about to retort, someone from the crowd chimed in.
“Indeed, Miss Fiona, we are curious to know what the princesses have gifted you this year”
“Every year, their gifts leave us green with envy
“Yes, Miss Fiona, please open it. It’s a gift from the princesses, opening it would be respectful”
Several people agreed, leading others to join in
Fiona gritted her teeth in anger, but her mother, who had been standing by her side, shook her head, urging her to
keep her cool. As people gathered around the central stage, Chloe finally got a clear view of Miss Fiona
With just a glance, she turned to look at the man standing beside her Finally, she understood what he meant by

Fiona’s expression was clearly filled with anger as she glared at Barbara and Becky, wishing she could bore holes
into them.
Chloe raised an eyebrow Miss Fiona, with her plump figure must detest standing next to people with better figures.
But Barbara and Becky in their elegant and figure–hugging gowns, were a sight to behold Even without trying to
compare it was clear who was more beautiful
Looking at her own dress, she felt grateful for Damon’s thoughtfulness
