The Queen's Back

Chapter 217

"Yes, I know. Maxwell, is the matter at your company still not seled?" Mona asked.

She could tell that Maxwell had arrived in a hurry.

"It's nothing urgent, anyway. Let's go and grab your stuff first. I'll head back to the company after I send you home safely." Maxwell said.

He didn't dare to touch Mona's waist.

Every time he saw the injury, he could feel the devil inside him forcing its way out. He wished he could tear those people apart with his own hands.

Mona actually wanted to ask Haley to go with her and let Maxwell do his work first. However, when she looked up and saw Maxwell's cold gaze, she immediately nodded She knew that if Maxwell didn't see her being sent home safely, he wouldn't be in the mood to work.

As soon as the two of them left the hospital, the police chief called and asked Mona when she would have the time to give a statement.

Thinking that they were going to go to Yosneosiland the next day, Maxwell took Mona to the police station to give her statement first.

When Mona was giving her statement, the students' parents approached her, hoping to have Mona retract the case. They didn't want their daughters to have a criminal record.

Mona looked at the students' parents indifferently and sneered, So what if they're students? Aren't they already sixteen? As students, they chose to skip school and couldn't care less about their future.

"Why should I feel sorry for them? If you want me to retract the case, get your daughters to tell me who the mastermind is Otherwise, there's no room for negotiation."

"What mastermind? There's no such thing. Besides, you're alive and kicking. We're willing to give you the compensation Why aren't you willing to retract the case? Are you going to be satisfied only if our child goes to jail?" The parents of the child who hit Mona saw that Mona was fine. They felt that she was making a big fuss.

Mona couldn't believe what she heard. She couldn't fathom how mindless the parents could be. "So, I shouldn't hold your daughters accountable if I'm not seriously injured?

"Is it that I became so badly injured that I'm paralyzed, only can I sue them for assaulting me? If that really happened, no compensation, not even if she gets a lifetime jail sentence, would do justice."
