The Queen's Back
Chapter 198
Just as Mona was about to say that there was no need to look for adhesive bandages, Haley had already run forward. Then, she seemed to have thought of something and hurried back to Mona's side. Looking into her eyes, she said seriously, "Mona, I'll be right back. Just stay put."
Mona instinctively nodded. Haley then quickly walked ahead.
Throughout the entire process, Mona was bewildered. Haley was really swift and decisive in getting things done.
She recalled what Haley had said before she left, finding Haley's words sound so similar to what Maxwell had told her when she came to Noretin.
She thought, 'It seems that Maxwell not only reminded me, but he also reminded Haley. He's too concerned about me, treating me like a minor that he needs to look after.'
While Mona was thinking, an adhesive bandage and a hand with well-defined knuckles suddenly appeared in front of her.
Mona instinctively looked up and met Brendan's gaze, which held a subtle hint of amusement.
For a moment, she didn't know if she should put down her hand or accept the adhesive bandage he handed her.
"What's wrong?" Brendan said. "Mrs. Carter, you don't know how to call me Brenny when you see me, huh?" As Brendan spoke, he spontaneously placed the adhesive bandage in Mona's hand and sat across from her.
Being reminded of this, Mona felt a wave of shame wash over her. When she recalled what she said about calling Brendan "Brenny" if she had the chance to meet him in the future, she felt so awkward that the awkwardness seemed to stretch all the way from where she was to the entrance of the ball.
"What's wrong?" Brendan said, looking into Mona's eyes. "Could it be that you don't keep your word?"
His eyes were deep blue. At a glance, they were like the night sky, making it difficult to discern his feelings.
"Brenny!" Mona called out somewhat reluctantly.
After calling out, she felt like sitting here with Brendan was almost unbearable due to the awkwardness. She had no idea why she would run into Brendan at a ball.
The corners of Brendan's lips curled up slightly. "Yes, that's more like it. If you see me again in the future, don't forget to call me 'Brenny'. If anyone bullies you in Noretin, just mention my name, and I'll stand up for you."
Mona had called him "Brenny," so he would not let her do it for nothing.
"You're overthinking things. I didn't provoke anyone in Noretin. Why would anyone bully me then?" Mona rejected Brendan's good intentions without hesitation.
