King sneered.
Shen Ruojing couldn’t help but question, “If you like Daisy, why would you help the Karl family suppress her?”
As soon as these words came out, King was slightly stunned, “Suppress her? What do you mean?”
He had always told the Karl family to treat the royal family well.
Shen Ruojing chuckled, “Why are you pretending to be ignorant? The Karl family uses Daisy, exploits her labor, deprives her of freedom, and humiliates her in private. Is that how you show your affection?”
Shen Ruojing seemed to suddenly understand something, “Oh, I see. You’re King. King can’t interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. So you want to use this method to force Daisy to give up her princess status and become your caged bird? Mr. King, your kind of affection is truly terrifying!”
King frowned tightly and finally understood the meaning behind Shen Ruojing’s words. He spoke up, “Are you saying Daisy is being abused?!”
Shen Ruojing sensed King’s emotional shift and looked at him in shock, “You don’t know?”
She suddenly realized that Princess Daisy always appeared glamorous and perfect in front of the camera. In the eyes of outsiders, she was always high above, elegant, and flawless. If it wasn’t for Karl sending Daisy to deal with her, and Daisy’s unwillingness to reveal it in front of her, Shen Ruojing wouldn’t have known!
So, King genuinely didn’t know that Daisy was being mistreated?
As soon as she thought of this, Shen Ruojing finally realized something, “Your deal with the Karl family, could it be that you’re having them support the royal family?”
A look of being caught with a secret immediately appeared on King’s face.
He didn’t say anything; his silence confirmed it.
Shen Ruojing couldn’t help but laugh out of anger and pointed at him, “You’re truly confused! Don’t you know that the more confidence you give the Karl family, the stronger their influence becomes in Country Y? They will pay no regard to the royal family!”
King sneered, “As long as they can’t surpass me, they have to rein in their ambitions and take good care of people for me!”
“Do you know how they take care of her?” Shen Ruojing stared at him and said word byword, “They hired nanny tutors who subject Princess Daisy to strict training every day. Regardless of the harsh weather, Princess Daisy must dress appropriately and train her smile. If anything goes wrong, those nannies whip her legs and arms because those areas can be covered by clothes!”
“Princess Daisy may appear to be a princess on the surface, but she has absolutely no freedom! With just a word from Karl, she has to fly to Country A and help him suppress me. When Princess Daisy expressed her liking for my calligraphy and painting, Karl humiliated her and used the royal family to threaten her!”
“Mr. King, is this your idea of affection? It’s truly horrifying!” Shen Ruojing’s words felt like a harsh slap on King’s face, leaving him stunned.
He looked at Shen Ruojing in disbelief, “How could this be? Every time I asked her, she said she was doing well.”
Shen Ruojing sneered, “Because she likes you! She doesn’t want to show any flaws in front of the person she likes or make them pity her. How can you not understand that?”
King stood up abruptly, his gaze fixed on Shen Ruojing and Chu Cichen.
After staring at them for a long time, he suddenly said, “I will investigate now. If the allegations are true, I will help you deal with the Karl family. But if you’re trying to sow discord, Miss Shen, Mr. Chu, don’t blame me for being unfriendly to your two families!”
After finishing his words, he left in large strides.
Fourteen hours later, in the royal palace of Country Y.
Princess Daisy was still learning etiquette.
However, in the middle of her lesson, Karl suddenly arrived.
He looked at Daisy and said, “Princess, there’s something that 1 might need your help with.”
Daisy bowed respectfully to him and said, “Please go ahead.”
Karl spoke, “We are about to engage in a business battle with the royal family of Country A. In order to diminish the image of their Crown Princess, I need you to issue a statement claiming that you were deceived by her and that her calligraphy is worthless.”
Upon hearing this, Daisy’s expression changed abruptly, and she refused, “I’m sorry, but 1 cannot comply.”
Karl sneered, “Do you think I’m giving you a choice, Princess Daisy? You only have one path to take. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being… impolite to you, my dear sister!”
Princess Daisy continued to insist, “I’m sorry, it is impossible for me to do that.”
“You… fine!” Karl laughed coldly and looked at the people beside him. “Princess Daisy’s etiquette is truly subpar. Are you just going to stand there?”
Immediately, several maids stepped forward, and one of them took a small whip and lashed it directly at Daisy’s legs. “Princess, you’re not standing properly. If you’re tired, you can actually kneel.”
A sharp, piercing pain shot through Daisy’s legs.
She knew that Karl was forcing her to kneel..
