The Queen's Back

Chapter 131 Jane couldn't eat, and so did the others, especially Mona. She looked at the table full of food and couldn't muster any interest.

Just like that, everyone began to eat the dishes on the dining table with no appetite.

Halfway through the meal, Maxwell's phone rang once. He glanced at it and saw that it was Richard. He hung up without Halfway through the meal, Maxwell's phone rang once. thinking. Right now, Mona needed someone to accompany Carter Mansion.

and comfort her. He could not abandon Mona and return to the Soon, Richard sent him a message. [I know Bernard has fainted, but the Carter family's banquet is also very important. Don't forget to cback for dinner tonight.] Maxwell did not know if it was the sfor other families. They had to be present at the reunion dinner every night no matter what happened, even during the years when he went overseas.

From the corner of her eye, Mona happened to see the message on Maxwell's screen. She whispered in Maxwell's ear, "Maxwell, go back tonight. I can stay here myself." "It's fine. We'll talk about it tonight. Let's eat first." As soon as Maxwell finished speaking, he picked up a piece of fish meat without any thorns for Mona. The meat looked delicious, but Mona could not bring herself to eat it. It tasted like chewing wax as she ate it. In the afternoon, Bernard woke up again. This time, he woke up a little longer than in the morning. When the doctor saw this, he directly gave Bernard a nutrient solution and did not let Bernard eat.

When Jane found out that Maxwell was going back to the Carter family, she thought, 'Since it's Christmas, we should be polite. Otherwise, wouldn't others say that we don't have a proper upbringing?" She said to Mona, "Mona, you and Maxwell go back to the Carter family first. Cback tomorrow morning. I'll stay here, with your grandfather. Albert is here. It'll be fine." Mona was still hesitating. She still wanted to accompany Bernard here. When she was hesitating, she was pushed out of the ward by Jane.

Maxwell looked at the closed door of the ward. He held Mona's hand and said, "Mona, cback to the Carter family with me. Take it as a walk. We'll be back tomorrow morning." Mona thought that Jane was right. She was not of much use here. She just sat on the sofa and accompanied Bernard. Thinking out it, she might as well go out with Maxwell to calm her emotions. "Okay, then we'll be back in the morning." Maxwell nodded and led Mona to the elevator.

The two of them drove to the Carter family. On the way, Mona leaned against the passenger seat and thought about Bernard. She was afraid that something would really happen to Bernard.

The street lamp beside her shone on Mona's exquisite face through the black car window. The colorful light from the fireworks outside was faintly discernible, giving her cold face a hazy feeling Maxwell looked at Mona who was in a daze in the front passenger seat through the mirror and said, "Mona, I've helped Grandpa contact a doctor overseas. If nothing goes wrong, the doctor will be here the day after tomorrow. He has smedical research. When the tcomes, listen to what he has to say. Don't think too much about it. Grandpa will be fine." Hearing Maxwell's words, Mona's mood improved a little. She could only place her hopes on this foreign doctor. "Yes, Maxwell. I think Grandpa's fainting this tis a little strange. His body has always been very strong. He should have had 1/3 D 08:20 Tue, Oct 29 G Chapter 131 +5 symptoms before he fainted" She wondered if someone was trying to harm her grandfather. Nobody but Jeremy would do that.' Maxwell said, "Mona, then I'll get Nigel to investigate. Oh right, the last tyou askedto investigate Jererny. Nigel brought snews." "What news? Tellquickly," Mona asked. She wanted to know if there was evidence that Jeremy and Beatrice had harmed her mother. If there was really evidence, her mother would be able to rest in peace.

"Nigel found out that Jeremy has been transferring a lot of money from the Clem Group all these years. He also found out that he bought the Clem Group's shares privately. We haven't found out about him and your mother yet..." Speaking of this, Maxwell remembered that he was already married to Mona and quickly changed his words. "It's related to our mother's death." This was also found by Nigel when Maxwell and Mona were on their honeymoon overseas. He wanted to leave a good memory for Mona during their honeymoon, so he thought of telling her when they cback.

However, he had been busy with the company's affairs when he cback, so he had forgotten about it. Coincidentally, he thought of it today.

Mona was amused by the way Maxwell addressed her mother. The bad mood in her heart lessened a lot. She said, "I just feel that he's not a good person. Thanks, Maxwell. When Grandpa recovers, I'll tell him about this. I'll have to trouble Nigel to continue investigating." She also knew that Emily's accident had happened so many years ago. It was not something that could be found out in a day or two. This matter had to be taken slowly and could not be rushed.

"It's no bother. We're already married. Your mother, no, our mother's problem is my problem," Maxwell said. 'However, why did Mona thank Nigel? It was fine as long as she thanked me.' When the two of them arrived at the Carter Mansion, it was already late. Gradually, it started to snow.

When they got out of the car, it was already snowing heavily, but the temperature was not low enough. It melted as soon as it landed, making it difficult to pile up on the ground.

Mona looked at the sky full of snow and his thoughts gradually drifted to the day of the wedding with Maxwell.

It was also snowing that day. Bernard held her hand as they walked down the red carpet and he handed her hand to Maxwell. At that time, they were so happy, but now, he was already lying on the hospital bed.

Life was unpredictable. She didn't know which would cfirst, happiness or danger. Therefore, she had to enjoy her life and not have any regrets.

Maxwell held Mona's cold hand and wrapped it in his big hand. He wanted to warm Mona's hand and bring warmth to Mona.

"Go in, Maxwell. Your hands are so hot and warm," Mona said.

p." Maxwell replied, "Yes, I can warm you up."

The two of them walked through the garden of the Carter family. When they walked inside, their heads were e already covered in a layer of white snow. Maxwell did not care about the snow on his head. He cleaned up Mona first.

"Maxwell, do you think our hair will be as white as it is now when we are old?" Mona asked. She was already thinking of spending the rest of her life with Maxwell. 08:21 Tue, Oct 29 G.

Mona helped Maxwell brush the snow off his black coat and said "Of course not. At that time, I would be old and my face would probably be covered in wrinkles. You're not allowed to despiseeither." Maxwell told her, "I don't mind. That's the mark of ton your face. I like it much." very X
