Chapter 1290
Mr. York said, "I’m just telling the truth, Dad. I wanted to visit Liam Locke yesterday, but I was turned away. They said that he wasn’t well and can’t accept visitors. It seems his injuries are indeed serious."
His words dampened the old master’s spirits. Just as he was about to speak, suddenly soone ca rushing in, calling out, "Sothing terrible has happened!"
"Master, Madam, Sir, it’s terrible — it’s all over the news that the Queen has overstepped her bounds and placed soone under house arrest!"
"House arrest?!" Everyone straightened up in alarm.
"Humph! It must be a rumor. Find out who started spreading it, and arrest them!" Mrs. York rebuked.
The old man furrowed his brow, instructing soone to quickly turn on the television. The breaking news was exactly this. So reporters were already camping outside the royal palace to see if the Queen would release the person in question.
The host said, "According to the whistleblower, the person under house arrest is a citizen of Grearon, who recently won the grand prize at the International Art Exhibition. Currently, insiders have revealed that Chloe Collins is indeed not at her personal place and has been missing overnight. Her phone is unreachable, leading to suspicions that her communication freedom is being controlled. At the mont, relevant parties have already contacted the embassy for negotiations."
Just as they finished watching the news, soone anxiously holding a mobile phone said, "Grandfather, many people online are mocking Aunt the Queen, saying she doesn’t deserve to be the mother of the nation. I’m furious!"
In Anstolas, while the King and Queen are respected by the entire country, they are also subject to scrutiny. Accordingly, many people often put forward opinions or even comnt on the Queen’s outfits at public events. Therefore, with this issue erging now, the public wouldn’t hesitate to discuss it rely because of her special identity. On the contrary, it has even stirred up a wave of heated debates.
Master looked serious, "We cannot trouble the Queen with the Yorks’ private affairs. But if the person is released now, it would confirm the rumors and people will say that the Queen is guilty and scared. Thus, we must first get Chloe Collins to speak up and clarify this issue. Send soone to the embassy to diate and avoid escalating this incident."
Mr. York nodded, "You’re right. The initiative is now in Chloe Collins’ hands. We should never underestimate this young lady."
"Ah! A video is circulating online!" soone shouted.
The old master frowned, "What now?!"
The person held up the mobile phone and said with a pained expression, "Grandfather, look, this is our house."
He showed them a trending video that had been shared tens of thousands of tis. In the video, a crowd was throwing vegetable leaves and rotten eggs at Chloe Collins, telling her to leave Anstolas. Soon after, the crowd suddenly switched their stance, distancing themselves from responsibility and revealing the culprit, Mrs. York.
At the end of the clip, an internet celebrity host explained, "As everyone can see, a manipulable crowd has been hired to bully a foreign girl. The person who placed the order was the lady of the York house. We speculate that the motive might be due to her daughter M. York, who lost in a recent grappling match due to inferior abilities but refused to admit defeat. She ended up being gravely injured by Collins. Therefore, this act appears to be fueled by revenge for her daughter! This is truly unbecoming of a noble family, what poor sportsmanship..."
The video was shut off before the comntary finished, simply because Mrs. York’s face had turned ashen and she seed ready to faint.
Mr. York clicked his tongue in disappointnt, "How could you do sothing this foolish?!"
