The Queen's Back

Chapter

88

Maxwell knew that Barbara had slept with Teddy, and he also understood that the reason Mona initially agreed to marry him was to get back at the two of them. So when Mona said Barlara was unhappy, he found it understandable that she felt pleased. However, now that Mona had already expressed her feelings for him, he didn't want her to get mixed up with those people anymore, especially Teddy, "Maxwell, you don't need to give me money. I have enough of my own," Mona said, noticing his gesture. When they got married, she had mentioned transferring her shares in the Clem Group to him.

At first, when she offered, Maxwell said it didn't matter where the shares went once they were married. With everything that had happened recently, she hadn't thought of it until now, and she felt awkward about accepting his bank card.

"I know you have enough money, but this is just a small token from me. Besides, isn't it customary for a married couple to combine their finances? This is a salary card, and I have a few others at home. I'll bring them to you later, but don't forget to me some pocket money each month, Maxwell said as he slipped the bank card into Mona's bag.

"Alright, if we're married, I'll hold onto this card for you. You can keep the others. It'll be easier for you to spend when you're out," Mona replied with a smile. She was satisfied that Maxwell wis willing to entrust her with his salary card. She wasn't unreasonable. As long as Maxwell wasn't fooling around, it didn't matter whose hands the family finances were in.

Moreover, she completely trusted Maxwell and had no doubts about him.
