The Queen's Back

"Grandpa, your worries are unnecessary. I guarantee that Barbara will be fine," Mona said with certainty.

Barbara would never commit suicide. Everything Barbara did was to achieve her goal.

After Mona finished speaking, Bernard did not say anything. She said a little jealously, "Grandpa, I'm your biological granddaughter. Am I inferior to Barbara?" "Of course you aren't. I love you the most," Bernard quickly replied.

Ever since Emily passed away, he had shifted his feelings for Emily to Mona. In his heart, even Albert could not compare to Mona, let alone Barbara.

"Alright, since Grandpa dotes on me, listen to me. Don't let Barbara live in the Clem family's residence," Mona said domineeringly.

Bernard met Mona's determined gaze. He gritted his teeth and nodded.

"I'll listen to you. However, it's unfair to Barbara. Mona, since Barbara dared to test the medicine for me, that shows that she's not a bad person. You can try to get along with her again. If you still don't like her, forget it. Don't force yourself," Bernard said. After spending a few days together, Bernard could tell that Mona did not like Barbara. It was only because of him and Jane that Mona appeared to be on good terms with Barbara.

He doted on Barbara as his granddaughter, but ultimately, Barbara was not as important as Mona in his heart.

Mona said, "Grandpa, you know everything?"

Bernard tapped the tip of Mona's nose gently. "Of course. I might be old, but I'm not stupid. Alright, let's go back to the ward. Let's not talk about this for now. We'll talk about it when Barbara is discharged."

Mona nodded and helped Bernard to the ward. Maxwell looked at Mona who had gotten her way and was happy for her.

"Hubby, why are you in a daze? Let's go." Mona turned around and waved at Maxwell.

Maxwell nodded and caught up with Mona in a few steps. He walked beside her and returned to the ward together.
