Chapter 290
Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love
On Alexanderâs face, there was also a hint of excitement.
He said, âJudith, you two have a good talk, Iâll go make a phone call.â
Alexander was always a busy man, so no one suspected anything.
Ben raised an eyebrow and stood up. âIâll make a phone call, too.â
Ben and Alexander went to the balcony together.
Alexander was slightly surprised to see Ben.
After a while, he showed a knowing expression. âYou know, too?â
Ben narrowed his eyes. âIf youâre talking about the things online.â
The Storm Group had a department specifically for handling online matters.
When the public opinion was just brewing, the head of the department had already sent a message to Ben.
Ben had the offensive remarks against Susan deleted, but he didnât deal with the others for the time being.
After all, the outcome of todayâs meeting had not yet been determined.
Whether Susan was willing to reveal her identity would determine his next course of action.
But one thing was clear.
No matter what decision Susan made, the higher Yana floated now, the harder she would fall later.
She was digging her own grave.
There was a hint of fierceness on Alexanderâs face. âDonât worry about these things. Let me handle everything! Although the actions of the Miller family are excessive, they raised Susan after all. If you or Susan come forward, it will inevitably cause some controversy. I donât want Susan to be criticized again.â
Ben glanced at Alexander and nodded faintly, saying, âAlright.â
When Ben agreed, Alexander finally breathed a sigh of relief.
âThen Iâll go back first,â Ben said, âIâm afraid Susan is not comfortable.â
He turned to leave.
âWait,â Alexander called after him.
âHmm?â Ben turned back and looked at Alexander.
Alexander looked complicated, and after a while, he said, âBen, treat Susan well.â
Ben raised an eyebrow. âSheâs more important to me than my life.â
Alexander was stunned for a moment, and a relieved smile appeared on his face. âRemember what you said today. And⦠thank you.â
Thank you for bringing Susan out of the darkness.
Thank you for letting her be proud and at ease now.
Ben nodded and didnât say anything else, then turned and left.
Alexander watched his receding figure with a slightly softer look on his face.
When Ben was far away, Alexanderâs expression returned to being stern.
It was time for Yana to pay the price.
Alexander made a few phone calls with an expressionless face.
In Nicholasâ Manor, Yana lay on the bed, leisurely looking at Twitter, feeling extremely comfortable.
Jane was also beside her, feeling pleased with herself. âYana, when we go to Tonico, your status will only be higher! The people there are very respectful and worshipful of the royal family. As a princess, you have to hold yourself up.â
âOf course.â Yana couldnât help but straighten her back.
The mother and daughter were having a good time talking.
Suddenly, there was a heavy knock on the door.
Yana thought, âWhatâs going on?â
Yana was annoyed and said angrily, âWhoâs so rude! Donât they know I need rest?â
âIâll go see who it is for you.â Jane stood up fiercely and walked out.
She quickly opened the door and said fiercely, âDo you know who lives here? This is the most beloved daughter of the King of Tonico! You knocked on the door so rudely. If you scare the princess, who will be responsible?â
Janeâs tone was very aggressive.
Yana felt that Jane was right.
She couldnât help but nod in agreement.
She thought, âYes, thatâs how you should deal with these ignorant people. If you donât scold them properly, they wonât understand their place. Of course, in the future, I would have to be more careful and not confront them myself. After all, as a princess, I also have to consider my status, right?â
Yana was pondering about this.
Suddenly, Jane let out a scream and collapsed to the ground.
Then, several burly men walked in.
Emergency calls only Yana was stunned for a moment.
D85%
10:15 Then, she was trembling with anger.
She thought, âHow dare these people push my mother!
Isnât this a direct slap in my face?
Do they have no regard for their lives?â
Jane got up, looked at those men, and said angrily, âHow dare you push me? Even the king and queen treat me politely! How dare you! Do you believe that you all have to go to hell with just one word from me?â
Jane, who had been living a respected life in the embassy for a few days, was finding it unbearable to suddenly encounter such a situation.
Yana looked at these men and said in a cold voice, âYou all need to leave immediately. Otherwise, when my parents come back, I canât guarantee what your fate will be!â
As Yana spoke, she stood straight, and her tone was resolute.
She silently gave herself a pat on the back.
She felt that she had a real princess vibe.
Before Yana could revel in her selfâpraise, the leader of the men snorted and then approached, lifting Jane up.
âWhat are you doing? Put me down! Youâre rebelling, youâre rebelling!â Jane exclaimed in shock.
The man completely ignored her and threw her out of the door.
Then, he gestured, and the other men rushed in like wolves and began to throw things around frantically.
Yana looked on in shock as her belongings were thrown out one by one.
Emergency calls only âStop! Stop this, all of you!â Yana shouted hoarsely.
Jane stood up again, this time with determination, and confronted the men. âDo you know what youâre doing? Arenât you afraid of the king holding you accountable for this!â
Jane rushed towards them, only to be effortlessly thrown out again by one of the men.
Some of the objects were also thrown at her.
Jane was dazed and dizzy from the impact and took a while to come to her senses.
It was too noisy and chaotic.
Penny heard the commotion and walked over with a furrowed brow.
Jane struggled to stand up and was about to confront the men again.
Upon seeing Penny, she rushed towards Penny as if she had found a lifeline and grabbed Pennyâs hand, âMiss Nicholas, Miss Nicholas, please stop these people! They are rebelling!â
Penny was surprised to see Janeâs pitiful state.
She entered the room, and her eyebrows twitched in surprise.
Several men were ransacking the room and throwing things around while Yana was shouting at them.
But the men seemed to completely ignore her!
âWhatâs going on?â Penny couldnât help but ask.
âPenny!â Yana was trembling with anger. âAsk these people what they are doing. Are they trying to rebel against me, a princess?â
Penny looked at the men..
The leader bowed to Penny, and his demeanor became respectful.
After all, Penny still held some status in the Nicholas family.
âExplain yourselves. What are you doing?â Penny raised an eyebrow.
