Chapter 1249: Chapter 1249: What is Called a Slap in the Face! (5) Chapter 1249: Chapter 1249: What is Called a Slap in the Face! (5) Scarlett truly didnât realize how serious the consequences were, and even now, she believed that Prince Willieâs lack of support was because he no longer loved her. In a huff, she said, âWhatâs wrong with my mom? At least my mom is better than that woman!â
Prince Willie hadnât expected her to be playing one role in front of him and another behind his back. After revealing her true colors, he was disappointed to see she lacked any resemblance to an elite socialite lady, crudely referring to âthe illegitimate daughterâ and âthat woman.â His temples throbbed as he looked at Scarlett with disappointment and made up his mind, âSince you think so highly of your mom, starting tomorrow you should go stay with her in Country S, and donât ever come back to Country W.â
Donât ever come back to Country W⊠Scarlett first looked up at him in disbelief, then clenched her fists, thinking that Prince Willie was just speaking angrily, âDaddy, what are you sayingâŠâ
Prince Willie was a man who wouldnât easily change his mind once he made a decision. Facing Scarlettâs gaze, he repeated himself directly, âI said, from now on, donât ever come back to Country W.â
âDaddy, are you sending me away?â Scarlett finally realized he wasnât speaking out of anger, and she began to panic.
Never returning to Country W meant she would be abandoned by the royal family and completely exiled abroad.
Without the support of her status as the fourth in line to the royal succession, she would be nothing.
Besides, her mom was already remarried to a commoner, who himself had remarried and already had a son. How could she possibly join them?
Tears truly filled Scarlettâs eyes this time, blurring her distinct black and white irises, as she attempted to tug at Prince Willieâs hand, pleading with him, âDaddy, IâŠâ
Prince Willie pulled his hand away and said emotionlessly, âDo you realize what you did wrong?â
âI do, I realize it,â she said.
As long as she wasnât expelled from the country, she could endure anything.
âIf you realize it, then go apologize to Ms. Clark.â
ââŠâ Apologize to Enna Clark? Scarlettâs instinct was to refuse, but catching a glimpse of Prince Willieâs expression, she found the words stuck in her throat, unable to utter a single one.
She wasnât foolish; she could see that if she didnât apologize today, she would definitely be sent out of the country.
But to apologizeâŠ
The thought of humbly apologizing to Enna Clark made Scarlettâs face burn as if she had been slapped several times. This feeling was even harder to bear than getting slapped for real.
Weighing her options, she walked over to Enna Clark hesitantly, with the great humiliation making her eyes as red as if she were about to cry. Bending before Enna Clark, she managed to utter, âIâm sorry.â
Those three words felt like they were stabbing her own heart, each one like a slap she delivered to herself.
She didnât even want to look up, unwilling to see Ennaâs expression because, without a doubt, that woman must be feeling smug.
If it werenât for her, she wouldnât have fallen so low!
Scarlett felt more aggrieved and humiliated the more she thought about it, and tears fell in big drops. To an uninformed onlooker, it might seem as though Enna Clark had bullied her into apologizing.
In reality, Scarlett was overthinking. Enna Clark had no intention of feeling smug because she had no plans to simply let things go. Ignoring Scarlettâs reluctant apology, Enna stood straight as a pine, facing Prince Willie, âPrince Willie, I think you have misunderstood.â
