The Queen's Back

Chapter 140

Time passed day by day. Luke's team still had not worked out an antidote. They had only stabilized Bernard's condition and ensured no danger for the time being. But Bernard was still lying there like a vegetable. At that time, Albert was tortured by Haley every day, but he was also enjoying it. Jane's condition was much better.

Mona either stayed in the room working on design drafts or had a video call with Maxwell. That night, she finished the drawing and lay in bed as usual, waiting for Maxwell's call. However, after a long time, nothing came. She thought that Maxwell must be too busy. After all, he had to deal with the Carter Group's business and find someone to monitor Jeremy.

It was not until Mona was about to fall asleep that the vibration of the phone in her hand woke her up. She suddenly opened her eyes. When she saw that it was Maxwell, she quickly picked it up.

As soon as the video call connected, Maxwell hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Mona. I've made you wait for too long. I was too busy today. I wanted to send you a voice message, but I have something serious to tell you."

The moment Mona saw Maxwell's face, her sleepiness was dispelled. "It doesn't matter. Hurry up and tell me what it is." As she spoke, she held the phone further away for a good angle.

On the other end, Maxwell hesitated for a moment and said honestly, "It's like this. I got someone to secretly follow Jeremy and found out that he has been buying the shares of minority shareholders for the past few days. He also secretly visited some major shareholders and even gave them gifts. The shareholders' meeting is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon. He should be taking action soon."

Mona nodded and said, "I guessed it. But he's quite fast."

"Yes, it's very fast. Moreover, many shareholders have agreed. After all, Grandpa is lying in the hospital and can't handle anything," Maxwell sighed.

"You're right, Maxwell. I have something to discuss with you." Mona twiddled her fingers.

"What?" Maxwell vaguely guessed it. She wanted him to be the president of the Clem Group.

"Maxwell, I want to hand over the Clem Group to you. You know that I'm not interested in managing the company. I just want to be a designer. As for Albert, you know that he's still young and serving in the army. So our family doesn't have a successor now, and I can't give this good thing to Jeremy. So, I'll leave it to you, okay?" Mona said.
