The Queen's Back

Chapter 127.

"You used the wrong method. No girl would fall for someone who bullied her every day." Mona looked into the distance and said.

If Maxwell had used another method to attract her attention in ligh school, she didn't know if she would have fallen for him.

At that time, everyone around was talking about Teddy, who was handsome and from a rich family. He was the school hunk.

Unknowingly, Mona seemed to have been affected. Perhaps all along, her feelings for Teddy were not love. She was just following suit to be attracted to Teddy.

After Mona's mother passed away, Teddy became her support. That was why she had been trying to please Teddy.

At night, the Carter Group was attending a ball for the rich people of Horieta. Maxwell happened to be there, so he brought Mona to have fun.

The sky gradually darkened as the black Lamborghini slowly stopped in front of a private villa.

Maxwell opened the door and helped Mona out of the car. As soon as the two of them arrived at the entrance of the villa and handed the invitation letter to the guard at the door, they were welcomed in. Even though Mona thought that her family was rich, she was still shocked by how luxurious it was.

The chandelier illuminated the place as if it was daytime. The floor beneath her feet was not the floor, but diamonds. At a casual glance, there were all kinds of antique paintings.

No wonder so many people were guarding the door. If anyone wanted to steal one, it would be priceless.

After the two of them walked inside, someone came over and chatted with Maxwell. Every time they talked about Mona, they could hear Maxwell say happily, "My wife, Mona Clem."

Mona was not interested in such a conversation. She only maintained a smile on her lips.

Suddenly, her eyes swept across a man on the sofa in the distance. His legs were casually crossed, forming a beautiful arc. He
