Chapter 132

"Then you have to remember what you said. Maxwell, I took it seriously," Mona said with a smile. She wanted to live longer. in this life, so long that she could see the white-haired Maxwell.

"Yes, I will keep my word," Maxwell said without thinking. This was the most passionate wish in his heart. In the past, he did not even dare to dream about it.

When the two entered the living room, it was already adorned with twinkling fairy lights. The sofa had been swapped out for one in Christmas red and green, and songs filled the air. Even the maid's attire was infused with a festive vibe. Mona felt the atmosphere and felt like it was Christmas. All this while, her mood had been abnormally low. After listening to Maxwell's words and the arrangements for Christmas, her mood had improved a lot.

"Maxwell, Mona, you're back. Come and sit. It's almost time to cat," Richard greeted. He did not expect Mona to be here too.

Mona and Maxwell greeted him and sat on the sofa.

When the two of them arrived, Gordon's family was already there. When Gordon saw Mona's red and swollen eyes, his heart actually ached. This made him feel strange.

Not long after, the servant said that dinner was ready.

Maxwell held Mona's hand and walked toward the dining table. The two of them sat down next to each other.

At noon, Mona's mood was especially bad and she didn't eat much of the food Maxwell had served her. Now that she knew that Maxwell had contacted a foreign doctor, her mood was much more relaxed. Looking at the food in front of her, she felt hungry.

If there's anything, we can discuss it. Also, Gordon, Maxwell is already married, so you should hurry up. I hope that next year, our family will have one more new member, oh no,
