The Queen's Back

Chapter 131

Jane couldn't eat, and so did the others, especially Mona. She looked at the table full of food and couldn't muster any interest.

Just like that, everyone began to eat the dishes on the dining table with no appetite.

Halfway through the meal, Maxwell's phone rang once. He glanced at it and saw that it was Richard. He hung up without Halfway through the meal, Maxwell's phone rang once. thinking. Right now, Mona needed someone to accompany Carter Mansion.

and comfort her. He could not abandon Mona and return to the

Soon, Richard sent him a message. [I know Bernard has fainted, but the Carter family's banquet is also very important. Don't forget to come back for dinner tonight.]

Maxwell did not know if it was the same for other families. They had to be present at the reunion dinner every night no matter what happened, even during the years when he went overseas.

From the corner of her eye, Mona happened to see the message on Maxwell's screen. She whispered in Maxwell's ear, "Maxwell, go back tonight. I can stay here myself."

"It's fine. We'll talk about it tonight. Let's eat first." As soon as Maxwell finished speaking, he picked up a piece of fish meat without any thorns for Mona. The meat looked delicious, but Mona could not bring herself to eat it. It tasted like chewing wax as she ate it. In the afternoon, Bernard woke up again. This time, he woke up a little longer than in the morning. When the doctor saw this, he directly gave Bernard a nutrient solution and did not let Bernard eat.

When Jane found out that Maxwell was going back to the Carter family, she thought, 'Since it's Christmas, we should be polite. Otherwise, wouldn't others say that we don't have a proper upbringing?"

She said to Mona, "Mona, you and Maxwell go back to the Carter family first. Come back tomorrow morning. I'll stay here, with your grandfather. Albert is here. It'll be fine."

Mona was still hesitating. She still wanted to accompany Bernard here. When she was hesitating, she was pushed out of the ward by Jane.

Maxwell looked at the closed door of the ward. He held Mona's hand and said, "Mona, come back to the Carter family with me. Take it as a walk. We'll be back tomorrow morning."

Mona thought that Jane was right. She was not of much use here. She just sat on the sofa and accompanied Bernard. Thinking out it, she might as well go out with Maxwell to calm her emotions. "Okay, then we'll be back in the morning." Maxwell nodded and led Mona to the elevator.
