The Queen's Back

Chapter 353

Bernard's words were clear. The company would be handed over to Maxwell after he passed away. The premise was Maxwell would continue to love and dote on Mona.

*Bernard, I'm nice to Mona not for the company..." said Maxwell

Before Maxwell could finish his words, Bernard patted his shoulder and said, "I know you have your grand ambition and ability. The Clem Group in your hands is just to make your great cause faster. You can do whatever you want. I understand. 1 am old and hope Mona and Albert can live well from now on. I don't think about anything else. I just want you all to be happy!"

Perhaps when one was old, one would not care about money and power. One only hoped one's children could live happily and spend more time with them. That way, one would have no regrets in one's life.

"Bernard, what you said is right. I have received your lecture. Meanwhile, I hope you can rest assured that my feelings for Mona are deeper than you think."

Maxwell's words gave Bernard peace of mind.

Soon, the sound of laughter came from the staircase. Maxwell and Albert looked over, and their gazes stopped on their wives.

Maxwell saw Bernard going to hold Jane's hand. Everything was so natural. It was as if Maxwell could see him and Mona like them years later. Maxwell thought, 'At that time, my family should have grown, and I have children with Mona. And our children have their children. The days in the future will be much better than before. My life is bitter before sweet!

Mona saw Maxwell pondering something with a smile after she walked to him. Her palm swayed before Maxwell's eyes. Then Maxwell caught her hand.

"What's the matter?" asked Maxwell.

"Maxwell, I should be the one asking you that. What's wrong?" said Mona.

Maxwell thought about what he had just thought and smiled slightly. "It's nothing. I was thinking my Mona looks terrific!"

Mona burst out laughing. "You're so talkative!"

However, Mona was still happy Maxwell praised her.
