Chapter 1418 Taking Sides
Beatrix choked on her own words. How dare she embarrass me in front of the people? Even more, she called me ugly! Urgh!
Olivia's comment drove Beatrix mad. This d*mn woman. I swear I'll kill her. I will!
She turned to Alice with a crazed look in her eyes. "Your Majesty, you should never let such a disrespectful and arrogant woman treat the General! A woman like her deserves to be kicked out or locked up!"
Eugene's aura immediately changed at the words. His cold eyes were glaring daggers at Beatrix. She has a death wish! NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
"You're speaking nonsense. Do you not understand a word she just said? From what I see, you're the one who should be locked up."
His words shocked the crowd. Does he have any idea who he's talking to? He's disrespecting the Princess!
Beatrix could feel her cheeks burning at the humiliation. It's so embarrassing!
She wished she was anywhere but here.
The man is crossing a line. She never planned to drag him into the discussion, but he made it clear he was opposing her. "Then, ask her to treat me first! If you refuse, it means you're hiding something."
Eugene glanced at her with a blank look, his eyes full of hatred. "My wife can't treat your lunacy. You've got the wrong person."
Ignoring his insults, Beatrix turned to Alice. "Your Majesty, I can sacrifice anything for General Bleu. Anyway, I don't believe that woman. Albert will have to step over my dead body if he wants to entrust her with the General's treatment."
Alice slightly frowned as she began in a voice that carried authority, "All right. I know you mean it, but my brother isn't a careless person either. Since he has done his research, I believe that we can trust Miss Maxwell. After all, the General's condition has improved. So, I suggest we let Miss Maxwell continue the treatment. What do you think, Consuls?"
How are we supposed to answer that? Her question threw them off guard.
If they agreed, they would risk getting on the Princess' bad side. However, if they disagreed, the Queen would remember this.
The Queen and the Princess had split into two equally powerful forces, and the Consuls didn't want to offend either of them. However, the situation forced them to take sides.
At that, two different opinions emerged. Some of them opposed the Queen's idea, while others agreed with the Queen.
Beatrix got agitated over time as the others decided to abstain. She eventually stepped forward again and said, "Your Majesty, you mustn't let that woman treat the General. She's a fraud!"
Albert had been biting back a response for a long time, but he finally reached the limit of his patience. He walked closer to Beatrix and scolded, "That's enough, Beatrix! I personally invited Miss Maxwell here to treat the General. She can never be a fraud!"
She replied with a snort, "I don't want to argue with you, Albert. However, you left me no choice. You kept telling us you had done your research, but do you know who she is?"
He retorted, "How many times have I told you? She's a doctor!"
"Albert, I didn't expect you, of all people, to work with her to deceive us. How could you entrust the General's health to her hands? I'm curious. What exactly are you trying to achieve out of this?" A smug grin was etched on Beatrix's face as she spoke.
Furious, Albert snarled, "Stop pointing the finger at her! You don't know what you're talking about."
At last, Alice couldn't stand watching the two fight anymore. She had to interrupt them sternly. "Enough, you two. Stop arguing. Miss Maxwell will treat the General's illness. Sir Albert, you're in charge of this matter."
Albert nodded. "Yes, Your Majesty."
Beatrix cut in in a sharp voice, "No! Your Majesty, you can't do that! Do you remember the theft of our country's hereditary necklace five years ago? There were three thieves at that time, which consisted of two women and one man. Olivia Maxwell was one of them!"
