The Queen's Back

Chapter 211

It was very quiet outside. The thunder and rain had stopped. The lights of the houses gradually faded as midnight fell, and soon, the city was completely enveloped in darkness. The Noretin Design Competition had ended, and the winners had been chosen. Unfortunately, Mona was accused of plagiarism.

Mona looked outside and rested her head on Maxwell's shoulder.

She sat quietly for a long time that night, thinking a lot about the incident. She wanted to prove her innocence and make Molly pay for what the latter had done. Molly was the one who had plagiarized.

But Mona didn't seem to know what to do and couldn't come up with a fix. Who would believe what she said?

As Mona dwelled in her thoughts, Maxwell sat quietly by her side, lending her a shoulder and offering warmth.

Mona finally couldn't take the doziness anymore, and her eyes slowly closed.

After quite some time, Maxwell gently carried her in his arms and quietly placed her on the big bed. After covering her with the blanket, he walked out of the bedroom.

He called Nigel right after he closed the door.

Nigel had been waiting for Maxwell's call. When it finally came, he said, "Mr. Carter, I've found out that there's a story between Molly and the Carter family.

"Her family is related to the Reed family who are overseas, and she's the illegitimate daughter of Lydia's uncle. She takes her mother's surname and has been raised by Danielle all these years." Nigel passed the message he received verbatim.

Just as Nigel was about to continue, Maxwell interrupted him. "Nigel, is your brain under shock or what? What were my instructions? I told you to look for evidence of Molly stealing Mona's design, not Molly's background." Maxwell felt like slapping Nigel. 'Nigel's an absolute idiot. After working with me for so many years, he still couldn't understand fully what I was trying to say,' he thought.

After hanging up, Maxwell saw the WhatsApp message from Brendan.

[I'll look for Danielle. After gaining her trust, the tables will be turned for sure. Also, Danielle will attend a private gathering in Yosneosiland. The invitation letter is with the hotel reception.]
