The Queen's Back

Chapter 180

When Mona walked out, she saw Maxwell waiting outside the prison. He was wearing a black windbreaker and leaning lazily against his car with his arms crossed. Their gazes met, and Maxwell greeted her with a smile.

The warm sunlight shone on Maxwell, adding some warmth to his cold temperament. The spring breeze wafted his scent and gently blew his fine hair. His eyes were especially bright as he looked at Mona.

Seeing Mona leaving the prison, Maxwell strode straight to her and held her hand. He said softly, "Mona, don't be afraid. Remember, it's all in the past."

Maxwell was afraid that when Mona saw Jeremy in prison, she would think of Jeremy holding a knife to her neck. Therefore, when he received Mona's message, saying she was visiting Jeremy, he immediately skipped his meeting and went to the state's prison.

Maxwell also knew what Mona wanted to say to Jeremy. So, he decided to wait outside. Maxwell was convinced that when Mona saw his face after leaving the prison, her mood would improve.

"I know it's all in the past. I'm not afraid anymore. Let's go home, I'm hungry. I want to eat pork," Mona shook Maxwell's shoulders. After the offer, it was up to Jeremy to make a decision. Mona would just have to wait.

Shortly after Mona left, Barbara visited Jeremy in disguise. After all, Jeremy had given her life, but he was extremely irresponsible as a father. So when he ended up in prison, Barbara felt he had brought this upon himself. She was even more disappointed when finding out he failed to die together with Mona.

Seeing the aged Jeremy in prison, Barbara's heart did not waver. However, she still called him father. When she looked at Jeremy, her eyes were still filled with tears. If not for the fact she was afraid Jeremy would say something to the police and implicate her or Beatrice, she would not have come to such a lousy place. She cursed in her heart.

"Barbara, you don't have to worry. Stop overthinking things, and never try to take over Clem Group. My failure is a living example for you," Jeremy advised earnestly. Of course, he knew Barbara's ambition and stubborn character. But regardless, she was his daughter. So, he still advised her.
