The Queen's Back

"No, Mona, be good and drink it now." Maxwell directly handed the beetroot juice to Mona. He would always remember Mona's pale face from the pain. He did not want to see it again in his life. Meeting Maxwell's determined gaze, Mona said, "Alright then."

After saying that, she drank it in one go and placed the glass in Maxwell's hand. She looked like she wanted to be praised and went straight to the bathroom to brush her teeth. Maxwell met Mona's gaze and the corners of his lips curled up subconsciously.

After everything was done, Mona lay on the bed. Only then did she feel a swelling pain in her lower abdomen, but it was not very uncomfortable.

She thanked Maxwell in her heart for asking her to drink the glass of beetroot juice. Otherwise, she would probably feel worse.

Maxwell noticed that Mona had frowned subconsciously. He placed his big hand on Mona's lower abdomen and asked with concern, "Are you feeling very uncomfortable? Is this better?"

The temperature of his palm on her stomach was hot, which relieved the swelling pain in her lower abdomen.

Mona snuggled into Maxwell's arms. His body was hot. To Mona, this was exactly what she needed. "Actually, it's not very uncomfortable this time, but it's comfortable to have your hand on my stomach."

Maxwell said, "I'm glad you're comfortable. I'll leave my hand on your stomach then. Now go to sleep. Do you want me to give you a day off tomorrow?"

Mona shook her head and rejected Maxwell's suggestion.

The Design Competition between cities would begin in a few months. The venue of this competition was set at Noretin. Mona hadn't completed her design yet. She still had to produce it later, so time was a little tight.

This time, the Design Competition in Noretin was even more solemn than that in Nathontown. There were a total of three competitions. The first was a free play competition, and the other two were on-the-spot competitions to test the designers' impromptu performance. Maxwell said, "Mona, let me know if you feel uncomfortable. Don't hold it in."

Mona nestled in Maxwell's arms and nodded. Sleepiness hit her and she slowly closed her eyes.

Maxwell left a kiss on Mona's forehead before falling asleep with Mona.
