Chapter 177

Maxwell helped Mona to enter the ward. She sat weakly on the bed while Maxwell held her hand. Maxwell felt the coldness on her hand. But no matter what he did, he couldn't warm her.

Jane entered and sat next to Mona. "Mona, don't be afraid. Everything is alright now. Maxwell called her earlier and explained how Jeremy wanted to kill Mona. At that moment, her heart almost jumped out of her chest. Fortunately, Mona was not too injured. Only Teddy was, When Jane found out that Teddy and Barbara were together, she felt he was unworthy of Mona. After all, Mona had wasted so much of her youth on that scumbag.

Later on, Mona got married and lived a happy life. As time passed, the hatred in her heart for Teddy gradually faded. But that day, upon learning that Teddy had blocked Jeremy's attack on Mona, Jane realized he must have some feelings for her. At least Mona's love for him was not entirely wasted. However, their love grew a bit too late.

Mona nodded and thought the only thing she was glad about was that Teddy's life was saved. Barbara, standing outside the ward, clenched her fists tightly. Her nails dug into her palms as she looked at Mona with hatred. 'How is she so lucky? Jeremy was about to die with her. He was about to succeed, but Teddy appeared halfway and blocked his attack.

How can she get everyone to favor her? She even gets Teddy and Maxwell to fall for her! Barbara was reluctant to accept defeat. She was determined that one day, she would take everything Mona had. Everything Would belong to her, including Maxwell's attention. Meanwhile, Mona was so immersed in her sorrow that she did not notice Barbara's hateful gaze.

Except for Barbara, everyone in the room showed great concern for Mona. After dinner, Mona saw that the sky had turned dark. Although the ward was spacious, it could not accommodate so many people. Moreover, Mona was sick of Barbara's hypocritical face. She looked at Jane and said, "Grandma, it's getting late. You should return home with Grandpa. Don't worry, Maxwell will keep me company."
