If Maxwell had not known the full story and Mona's true personality, he might have been convinced by Barbara's acting The way she turned on the waterworks at a moment's notice, was a waste she was not in show business.
"Mona, Barbara only developed this side effect because she participated in the clinical trials for your grandfather's medication. Don't hold it against her." Jane said, trying to persuade Mona. When Mona tumbled down the stairs, Jane's heart ached. Mona was her own flesh and blood.
But since Barbara sacrificed herself for Bernard's drug trial, Jane felt it would not be right for her to take Mona's side too much. Furthermore, Bernard had not voiced his thoughts on the matter. Speaking up for Mona might disrupt the Clem family's harmony. "Why are you apologizing, Barbara? Do you really think I'm the type to get violent? I know you didn't mean any harm, so let's move on from this, Mona said reluctantly.
Mona knew Bernard and Jane still felt deeply grateful toward Barbara as it had not been long since the clinical trials. If she kept pushing the issue, they would be put in a tough spot. She did not want to upset them.
She decided to chalk it up as one of those days when nothing seemed to go her way.
"Really? You're the best, Mona!" Barbara said. Her voice was full of excitement as she took Mona's hand.
As she reached out, Barbara accidentally grabbed Mona's wrist. Mona winced softly out of pain. It was the same spot where she was injured when she fell down the stairs.
Seeing this, Maxwell walked toward Mona. In a chilly tone, he frowned and said. "Talk if you want to talk, but keep your hands to yourself. Can't you see that Mona's wrist is bruised?"
To the Clem family, Barbara was a lifesaver who had sacrificed for Bernard's drug trials. Everyone treated her with respect. But it was different for Maxwell. The only person he cared about was Mona. He took on her feelings as his own. He cared for everyone Mona loved and hated everyone she disliked.
"T-I got it. I'm sorry. I just got a little too excited," Barbara said as she let go of Mona's hand.
Barbara thought, 'Honestly, Mona is just so lucky. She called off her engagement with Teddy, yet somehow still found an incredible guy like Maxwell. He absolutely adores her!'
