The Queen's Back

After Haley helped Mona put her luggage into her room, she couldn't wait to run to her own room. She wanted to see what her own room looked like.

Her room was right next to Mona's. The close proximity made it convenient to protect Mona at any time.

After Haley left, Mona closed the door, walked forward, and pulled open the heavy curtains. She then saw the entire view of Noretin.

The two cities, one in the north and the other in the south, looked very different in terms of architecture. The building walls in Noretin were relatively thick, but Nathontown was different. The walls were thinner.

Mona looked for a while and thought of Maxwell in Nathontown. Based on her understanding of him, he was either reading documents or in a meeting.

She took out her phone and sent Maxwell a voice message.

[Maxwell, I've arrived in Nathontown. Let me ask you something. Does my surname sound nice? Because of it, the hotel upgraded our regular room to a VIP room for free. I'm quite happy.]

After sending the message, Mona went to unpack her luggage. She usually stayed in VIP rooms whenever she traveled. Since this time was a group booking, she didn't want to make things special for herself and just went along with everyone else's room type, but she was surprised to find that she had been upgraded to a VIP room anyway.

She thought, 'It seems even fate doesn't want me to stay in a regular room.'

Far away in Nathontown, Maxwell was in a meeting while waiting for Mona's message.

After the sales manager finished reporting, he waited for a while but did not see any reaction from Maxwell, who was sitting in the front row.

He felt a sudden flutter of anxiety and couldn't help but think, 'Did I say something wrong? It's been a while since I finished, and Mr. Carter still hasn't said anything.'

Just as he was in a fluster, a phone rang in the silent room, breaking the silence.

As his phone rang, Maxwell immediately snapped out of his thoughts. When he saw the voice message from Mona, he wanted to open it right away, but remembering he was in the meeting room, he quickly said the meeting was adjourned and left.
