The Queen's Back

Chapter 177 Maxwell helped Mona to enter the ward. She sat weakly on the bed while Maxwell held her hand. Maxwell felt the coldness on her hand. But no matter what he did, he couldn't warm her.

Jane entered and sat next to Mona. "Mona, don't be afraid. Everything is alright now. Maxwell called her earlier and explained how Jeremy wanted to kill Mona. At that moment, her heart almost jumped out of her chest. Fortunately, Mona was not too injured. Only Teddy was, When Jane found out that Teddy and Barbara were together, she felt he was unworthy of Mona. After all, Mona had wasted so much of her youth on that scumbag.

Later on, Mona got married and lived a happy life. As tpassed, the hatred in her heart for Teddy gradually faded. But that day, upon learning that Teddy had blocked Jeremy's attack on Mona, Jane realized he must have sfeelings for her. At least Mona's love for him was not entirely wasted. However, their love grew a bit too late.

Mona nodded and thought the only thing she was glad about was that Teddy's life was saved. Barbara, standing outside the ward, clenched her fists tightly. Her nails dug into her palms as she looked at Mona with hatred. 'How is she so lucky? Jeremy was about to die with her. He was about to succeed, but Teddy appeared halfway and blocked his attack.

In the past. Teddy loved Barbara and plotted with her to get Clem Group. But when their plan failed, they broke up. Even worse, he turned to Mona's side. What's so good about Mona? How can she get everyone to favor her? She even gets Teddy and Maxwell to fall for her! Barbara was reluctant to accept defeat. She was determined that one day, she would take everything Mona had. Everything Would belong to her, including Maxwell's attention. Meanwhile, Mona was so immersed in her sorrow that she did not notice Barbara's hateful gaze. Except for Barbara, everyone in the room showed great concern for Mona. After dinner, Mona saw that the sky had turned dark. Although the ward was spacious, it could not accommodate so many people. Moreover, Mona was sick of Barbara's hypocritical face. She looked at Jane and said, "Grandma, it's getting late. You should return hwith Grandpa. Don't worry, Maxwell will keepcompany." Jane looked at the tand nodded. It was getting late and Mona needed to rest. So, she left with Bernard.

After everyone left, only Mona and Maxwell were left. Maxwell hugged Mona in his arms gently, feeling afraid. Mona sensed Maxwell's concern and reached out to caress his face. She pressed her face against his neck and whispered, "Maxwell, it's alright. It's all in the past." Maxwell's hand gently brushed past Mona's hair. He lowered his gaze to look into her eyes and said solemnly, "Yes, Mona We need to move on from what just happened. All of that is behind us." His tone was firm. He was afraid that Mona would forgive Teddy because of this. If that happened, he would wish Teddy was dead.

As for Mona, she felt Maxwell was a bit overreacting. Even if she had feelings for Teddy because of this, it was gratitude, not love. The only person she loved in her life was Maxwell alone.

"Maxwell, I'm your wife now. What kind of feelings can I have for him? You need to have more confidence in yourself. Haven't I said enough that I only like you?" "But he was your first love. Your first man. Maxwell hugged her a bit tightly. "Speople say that first love is always unforgettable, and you used to be head over heels for Teddy." Maxwell looked at Mona deeply and said with a hint of jealousy, "Mona, I don't care how much you liked him before. But now, at this moment, in the future, the person in your heart can only be me." He held Mona tightly in his arms and added. You can never hate me. Mona did not know about his definition of first love. Her feelings for Teddy did not seem to be love, but admiration. It was the sfeeling she had for her celebrity crushes. Besides, she had fallen in love with Maxwell in the past, and it grew every second. Chapter 177 Mona did not say anything. She only raised her hand and wrapped it around Maxwell's neck. She raised her head and kissed his thin lips. At this moment, a kiss could express her thoughts better than words.

After the kiss, Mona looked into Maxwell's eyes and said in an exceptionally solemn tone, "Maxwell, I will always love you until the moment my life ends." Hearing Mona's assurance, Maxwell's heart finally calmed down. His hand gently caressed the red mark on Mona's cheek. His eyes swept across the bandage on her neck, and a trace of coldness flashed across his eyes. "Does it still hurt?" Although Teddy had saved Mona, Hannah had slapped her with a baseless motive. He was angry because of this Recalling that Powers Group was investing in foreign investments recently, he thought they might have stricks up their sleeves, especially with Jeremy in prison. Maxwell thought prison twas too light of a sentence for Jeremy. Hence, he planned to find a way to make him miserable.. Mona leaned into Maxwell's arms and shook her head. "It doesn't hurt anymore. I'm fine, just a little scared." As the two of them spoke, Mona snuggled in Maxwell's arms. At spoint, she had closed her eyes and fallen asleep. "Mona?" Maxwell felt the grip on his hand loosen as he called out softly.

Mona didn't respond. When Maxwell lowered his gaze, he saw that Mona had fallen asleep. He slowly let go of her and got up. He straightened Mona's body and picked up a blanket to cover her.

The next day, Polly delivered a change of clothes for Mona. Her pajamas were found among other clothes. Maxwell knew that Mona was most concerned about hygiene. Moreover, she had just gotten into a car accident. So, her body must felt sticky and uncomfortable. So, Maxwell went to the bathroom and filled a basin with warm water to wipe her body.

When undressing Mona, Maxwell's gaze inevitably landed on something he shouldn't be looking at.

It had been a long tsince he had been intimate with Mona. She had been overseas taking care of Bernard. And after returning, she fell down the stairs. It seemed life had been unfair to her. Even that day, she got into a car accident and was almost killed. Maxwell knew what Mona needed most was space. He was afraid that if he continued to watch, he could not control himself So, he forced himself to look away.

Afterward, Maxwell wiped Mona's face. Then, he changed the water to wipe her body. He was careful, especially when wiping near Mona's neck. That place must never be wet.

The towel was quite hot, making Mona uncomfortable. Shesubconsciously groaned and gripped Maxwell's hand. BB 0 SEND GIFT COMMENT
