Chapter 1249: Chapter 1249: What is Called Slapping the Face (5)
Scarlett really didn’t know how serious the consequences were. She still thought Prince William wasn’t on her side because he no longer loved her. She said defiantly, “What’s wrong with my mom? At least my mom is better than that woman!”
Prince William didn’t expect that she would say one thing to his face and something else behind his back, showing her true colors without a shred of socialite lady demeanor. She kept mentioning ‘illegitimate daughter’ and ‘that woman’, causing his temple to throb. Looking at Scarlett with disappointment, he made up his mind, “Since you think your mom is so great, you should go to Country S with her starting tomorrow, and never return to Country W.”
Never return to Country W… Scarlett first looked at him in disbelief, then clenched her fist, still thinking Prince William was speaking out of anger, “Daddy, what are you saying…”
Prince William is the sort of person who doesn’t easily change his mind once he’s made a decision. Facing Scarlett’s gaze, he simply repeated, “I said, from now on, don’t ever come back to Country W.”
“Daddy, you want to send me away?” Scarlett finally realized he wasn’t just speaking out of anger, and she began to panic.
Never returning to Country W means she would be abandoned by the royal family, completely exiled overseas.
Without the support of being the fourth in line to the royal throne, she would be nothing.
Moreover, her mom was remarried, to an ordinary person, who was also in his second marriage and already had a son. How could she go there?
Scarlett’s eyes truly reddened this time, a mist of tears formed over her clear eyes as she tried to grab Prince William’s hand, pleading with him, “Daddy, I…”
Prince William directly pulled her hand away, saying emotionlessly, “Do you know you’ve done wrong?”
“I know, I know.”
As long as she wasn’t sent abroad, she could endure anything.
“If you know, then go apologize to Miss Chi.”
“…” Apologize to Chi Enen? Scarlett instinctively wanted to refuse, but upon seeing Prince William’s expression, her refusal was stuck in her throat, unable to utter a single word.
She wasn’t stupid; she already realized that if she didn’t apologize today, she would definitely be sent abroad.
But apologizing…
Scarlett, imagining having to bow and apologize to Chi Enen, felt her face burning, as if she had been slapped multiple times. That feeling was even harder to accept than actually being slapped.
Weighing the pros and cons, she slowly walked up to Chi Enen, as if enduring great humiliation, her eyes reddening like she was about to cry, she bent slightly towards Chi Enen and said, “I’m sorry.”
The three words felt like they were stabbing into her heart, each one like a slap she gave herself.
She didn’t even want to lift her head, didn’t want to see Chi Enen’s expression. No need to guess, that woman must be feeling very smug.
If it weren’t for her, she wouldn’t have sunk to this state!
The more Scarlett thought about it, the more wronged and humiliated she felt, with tears falling in big drops. Those unaware might think Chi Enen was using her power to bully Scarlett into apologizing.
In fact, Scarlett was overthinking it. Chi Enen never intended to feel smug because she had no intention of letting things go so easily. She avoided Scarlett’s reluctant apology, standing tall like a pine as she faced Prince William, “Prince William, I think you’ve misunderstood.”
