Outside, Mona couldn't wait any longer. She turned to Donald and said directly, "Donald, aren't you going to do something about Maxwell being trapped in the bathroom?"

After all, he was Maxwell's father, and it was only right to kick the door down when his son was inside. At Mona's urging. Donald kicked the door open. Though he wasn't fond of his son, blood was thicker than water.

His eyes were tightly shut, and he looked embarrassingly flushed. Seeing Maxwell's condition, Mona rushed over to help him up, but the moment her hand touched his arm, he pushed her away,
