Chapter

48

As Mona approached, the sales director got a good look at her face and recognized her. Maxwell and Mona's marriage hadn't been publicized yet at that time, so the sales director was under the impression that Mona was still Maxwell's fiancée. Still, Mona was an esteemed customer and she hurriedly walked over to receive her. The sales director was a little puzzled about why Maxwell had simply dropped his fiancée off and then driven away though. She thought maybe there was some truth to the rumor that their engagement was merely a power move for the sake of advancing the Clem and Carter businesses. She wasn't about to be distracted by this though and focused up on making a sale.

"How may I assist you, Ms. Clem?" she asked politely.

"Could I trouble you to show me some models that are beginner-friendly? I'd like to have a look at the options available." Mona replied.

"Of course. Please come with me." she led Mona further inside where the cars were on display.

One of the other salespeople had taken the initiative to prepare some refreshments in the lounge for when Mona would go over.

The sales director enthusiastically showed Mona around a couple of cars. Mona seemed to take a fancy to a particular Audi model, and she informed the sales director that there'd be someone who would come over to take a closer look for her later. Mona then headed to the lounge area to enjoy her coffee and pastries, intending to wait for Maxwell's arrival.

When Teddy came in to the dealership office, he caught sight of Mona looking bored on the sofa. She was in a black dress that showed off the fairness of her skin, and the sunlight she was basking in made her look even more radiant. Her hair was also tied up to reveal her slender neck, and her pearl earrings accentuated her petite face.

Teddy's jaw hung agape. He kept his gaze on Mona for a long time, drinking her in. He found himself unable to look away.

It wasn't until the sales manager called out to him twice that he snapped back to reality. Teddy couldn't help but admit that Mona was getting more and more beautiful.

By the time Maxwell arrived, Mona had started bothering Ava out of boredom. A shadow suddenly blocked the sunlight next to her, and when Mona looked up, she met Maxwell's eyes. There was a fine layer of perspiration on his forehead so it seemed like he had tried to hurry over as soon as he could.

"Mona, sorry. It took longer than I'd expected. Were you bored?" Maxwell asked apologetically.
