Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Chapter 1156: Chapter 1131: The Mask Is Torn Off

In an instant, the whole person appeared much younger.

The King looked at the daughter he had longed for day and night and said, “My child, I never thought I would see you again in my lifetime.”

Previously, upon hearing the news of Princess Snow White’s death, the King couldn’t eat or sleep, and his health worsened significantly.

He thought perhaps he would see his daughter again in a few days, as father and daughter could reunite in heaven.

Everything before his eyes seemed like a dream, so surreal.

“Father, I’m truly happy to see you again,” Princess Snow White said with a smile.

Seeing her father aged due to missing her, Princess Snow White felt a wave of emotion in her heart.

Ye Chen was right; her father loved her and missed her greatly during her absence.

After exchanging sentiments of yearning with his daughter, the King then noticed Ye Chen and the seven dwarfs.

“Daughter, who are these people?” the King asked Princess Snow White.

“Father, this is Ye Chen, and those are the dwarfs who rescued me. We are good friends now,” Princess Snow White introduced.

“Thank you all deeply for saving my daughter. I will reward you handsomely,” the King said gratefully.

Upon hearing this, the dwarfs were overjoyed.

However, Ye Chen remained indifferent, as the King’s rewards were nothing but gold jewellery, which he didn’t care about.

“Thank you for the King’s reward,” Ye Chen and the dwarfs said in unison.

“Daughter, I’ll call for your mother now. You know, ever since hearing of your death, your mother has been extremely distraught, often crying,” the King sighed.

Upon hearing this, Princess Snow White’s face changed slightly, wanting to stop her father, but she saw Ye Chen signal her.

Her stepmother tried every way to kill her, but fortunately, her fate was strong, and she escaped her stepmother’s attempts.

But even so, Princess Snow White still had some fear of her stepmother.

Hearing her father calling for her stepmother, she felt very nervous.

“Go to the palace and call the Empress here, saying I have a surprise for her,” the King said to a palace maid.

“Yes, King, I will invite the Empress over now,” the palace maid replied respectfully.

Then she turned and left.

Ye Chen wanted to see the Evil Empress’s reaction when she saw Princess Snow White standing in the palace, believing her expression would be quite remarkable.

At this moment, the Empress was very upset in her chamber, having just failed to poison Princess Snow White with an apple, and was wondering what to do next.

Then, a palace maid entered, disrupting her thoughts.

“Empress,” the palace maid called respectfully.

“What is it?” the Empress asked impatiently.

“Empress, the King asked me to invite you to the palace, saying there is a surprise for you,” the maid reported thoroughly.

Upon hearing this, the Empress’s mood improved significantly.

Just right, as she was troubled by Princess Snow White’s matter, it was good to see what the surprise was, as it might make her feel much better.

“Go inform the King that I’ll be there shortly,” the Empress said, her tone softened.

“Yes, Empress,” the maid said with relief.

The Empress’s temper was very bad; anything slightly not to her liking could trigger a rage, so those serving her were very cautious, fearing they might anger the Empress.

After speaking, the maid hurriedly left.

Not long after, the Empress arrived in the palace, dressed splendidly.

“Majesty, what surprise do you have for me?”

“Empress, look quickly, who is this?” the King said with a smile.

The Empress saw the girl before her, her face showing an incredulous expression: “Is it Xue’er?”

The King thought she was overly excited seeing their daughter and said with a smile: “Indeed, Empress, our longed-for daughter has returned. She is not dead.”

Then he continued: “Isn’t this a great surprise for you?”

The Empress nodded and said: “Xue’er, it’s truly wonderful. Since you left, I’ve been very sad. Now it’s good to finally see you again.”

Ye Chen’s lips curled into a cold smile, thinking where this was for the Empress was surprise—it was clearly fright.

But the Empress’s acting was excellent; she came to Princess Snow White and embraced her tightly: “Xue’er, let mother see you, oh dear, you’ve gotten thinner in these few days. It pains me greatly.”

She spoke while shedding crocodile tears.

Ye Chen was somewhat impressed with the Empress’s acting; if placed in the real world, she would definitely become a film queen.

Princess Snow White felt only disgust; she loathed the Empress’s falseness.

Clearly, she wished her dead, yet put on a caring display.

At this time, the seven dwarfs couldn’t stand it anymore and said: “Evil Empress, stop pretending here. In your heart, you wish Princess Snow White were dead, and many of your plans to murder her have failed. Stop pretending to be a good person here.”

Upon hearing, the Empress cried even harder, her expression very aggrieved.

“Majesty, I’m truly saddened to be wrongly accused like this.”

The King looked angry and said: “You stop your nonsense here; you’re slandering the Empress who shares a deep bond with the Princess.”

“Come, drive these dwarfs out,” the King ordered.

“We are speaking the truth, not a single lie,” the seven dwarfs reiterated.

As the guards were about to drive the dwarfs out, Princess Snow White shoved the Empress aside and said: “Father, wait; what they’re saying is true.”

This display from Princess Snow White was also shocking to the Empress; she didn’t expect the girl to be no longer weak.

Perhaps it was because of Ye Chen that Princess Snow White had grown braver.

She feared the Empress no more, knowing that when she was in danger, Ye Chen would protect her.

The King, upon hearing this, was somewhat taken aback.

The Empress widened her eyes, although furious in her heart, her face showed no sign of it; still maintaining an aggrieved look.

After a while, the King regained his senses and asked: “Daughter, what do you mean? Although you are not her biological child, she treated you as her own, how could she harm you?”

“Father, the Empress indeed tried to harm me; she is merely acting before you. What I say next is all true,” Princess Snow White said earnestly.

Upon hearing this, the Empress’s expression worsened.

The reason Ye Chen didn’t let Princess Snow White stop the King from calling the Empress was to expose her true nature publicly, letting the King truly see the wickedness of this woman.

Upon hearing Princess Snow White’s words, the King was shocked; he never thought the Empress could be so malicious.
