The Queen's Back

Chapter 104

Chapter 104

Maxwell feared that Mona might slip into a deep sleep and never wake up again, or that if she did wake, she would forget her feelings for him. He dreaded everything bad that could happen to her.

She had been running a high fever and unconscious throughout the night, at times crying out for help or calling his name.

When it came time to give her medicine, she couldn't swallow any of it, and he ended up having to feed it to her mouth-to-mouth.

When he found her, Maxwell had seen Mona faint right before his eyes, her body soaked from the rain, her white sweater stained a muddy brown, and her condition so weak that her face was pale and devoid of its usual elegance. It broke his heart. Mona had just dreamed of Maxwell jumping from the rooftop of the hotel, and now here he was right in front of her. She was overjoyed. Mona sat up with all her strength and threw herself into Maxwell's arms, looking pitiful as she said, "Maxwell, I was so scared. In this new life, Mona valued her life the most. Despite knowing that the kidnappers probably wouldn't kill her, she still feared that after escaping, they might catch her again, and she didn't know what kind of suffering awaited her then.

Right now, she felt dizzy, making her feel quite unwell.

"Don't be afraid. It's all over now," Maxwell whispered reassuringly, holding Mona tightly in his arms.

They embraced for a while, and after a long moment, Mona softly asked, "Do you know who was behind this?"

This was the question that weighed heavily on Mona's mind. Although she had not suffered serious harm from the kidnapping, if it had been successful, she wouldn't have been able to participate in the Design Competition, rendering all her hard work pointless. Maxwell shook his head. "No, but the four men who kidnapped you have already been arrested by the police. We should

know more soon.

Ever since Mona fell ill, he had only been concerned about her safety, with no time to think about anything else. Now that she was safe, he finally had time to investigate.
