The Queen's Back

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.

After all, Bernard was still lying in the hospital!

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.

He had always been a man who flirted with women but never truly fell for anyone. However, when it came to Mona, his heart was already aching before he got her.

Gordon had a bad feeling. The reason he gave himself was because Mona had been rejecting him. That was why he could not forget Mona. 'After I sleep with Mona, this strange feeling will no longer exist. After Maxwell and Mona sat down, Richard asked about Bernard out of concern. Mona told the truth. 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.

Maxwell is already married, so you should hurry up. I hope that next year, our family will have one more new member, oh no, two more new members." Richard's lips curled into a
