Chapter 1258: Chapter 1258: Still Can’t Reach Li Beijue by Phone
“Mind your language and actions!” Prince William furrowed his eyebrows.
Scarlett still hadn’t noticed someone was following him, she anxiously questioned him, “That woman lied to me, didn’t she? I didn’t kidnap Chi Enen, she framed me! It was that illegitimate daughter who framed me! Daddy, you believe me!”
Prince William sensed the surprised eyes of the person behind him, took a deep breath, and slapped the panicking, babbling maiden across the face.
“Slap!” A harsh sound.
Scarlett was hit and staggered to the right, her eyes blurry with tears, and she turned her head to look at Prince William.
Prince William’s face was ashen, his sharp eyes were filled with authority, he stared into her eyes and said word by word, “Have you calmed down?”
She was part of the royal family, no matter what happened she would always be part of it. As someone enjoying the honor and money brought by the royal family, she had the obligation to maintain its dignity.
In the presence of outsiders, she acted without decorum, babbling, how could she resemble a royal?
She wasn’t just disgracing herself, she was disgracing him, and the entire family! That’s why Prince William had lost his patience and slapped her, interrupting her to calm her down.
Scarlett was stunned by the slap, and after hearing Prince William’s stern question, her ears buzzed ceaselessly, tears streamed down, she opened her mouth, “Daddy…”
She was his own daughter, his only child, even if she wasn’t born of his beloved woman, seeing her like this, Prince William couldn’t help but feel heartache. But Scarlett had gone too far this time, she not only stepped over his bottom line but also someone else’s, and the other party had a firm stance; he couldn’t protect her, “Calm down, and come inside with me!”
Scarlett, after being slapped, her fevered mind slightly cooled down, and upon seeing outsiders behind him, unwilling as she was, she followed him inside.
Soon, Scarlett, looking dejected, her eyes swollen and red, hung her head and followed three men in suits and wearing sunglasses into the Land Rover.
The car sped all the way, heading into the suburban women’s prison…
…
Due to the exposure of her identity, Chi Enen hadn’t dared to leave home these past few days.
There were too many paparazzi and journalists outside, all wanting to ride the wave of news popularity and stir up a scandal once more.
Chi Enen didn’t intend to become famous, but by the time she knew, Quan Dongting had already announced her identity to the public, leaving her with no choice.
During these days, since she couldn’t go outside, she simply stayed in the study room and went through the pile of contracts Ryan needed her to sign, and spent the remaining time on rehabilitating her leg injury and having video calls with Bae Chi.
Bae Chi called her for over two hours almost every day, and even when they ran out of topics, he watched animated films while forbidding her to hang up.
Or else he had Nuonuo holding the phone, babbling a string of Martian language to her.
Over these days, Chi Enen kept trying to contact Li Beijue but faced the same situation — unable to reach Li Beijue’s phone!
The phone was always out of service, and later directly turned off.
She couldn’t fathom how angry he might be or if he was too busy, she wanted to ask Huo Yi but discovered Huo Yi also wasn’t in Country W, vanished somewhere, experiencing the same unreachable phone situation as Li Beijue.
