The Queen's Back

Ava knew that Mona had her own plans. She nodded. "Alright, then go with your husband."

However, before Mona could put this matter on the agenda, something big happened.

One night, when Mona received a call from her grandfather, Bernard, she had just washed up and was preparing to sleep. Hearing her phone ring, Mona quickly picked it up.

Bernard's strong voice came from the other end. "Mona, bring Maxwell back. I have something to ask him."

Mona quickly replied. Bernard's words were an order.

Mona guessed that it was related to the company. She did not know how Maxwell was doing in the company these days.

She quickly changed her clothes and knocked on the door of the master bedroom.

"Mona, so what? If you really want to come over and sleep with me, I don't mind. Aren't you tired of knocking on the door every day?"

As Maxwell spoke, he had no intention of coming down to open the door.

"Maxwell, come out. Grandpa wants us to go back now. He has something to ask you," Mona said as she knocked on the door.

"What are you talking about? It's so late. I'm going to sleep. We'll talk about it tomorrow." Maxwell continued to play the gams and his hands quickly pressed on the screen.

At this moment, Mona was really disappointed in him. She knocked on the door twice and said coldly, "Maxwell, I'll give you two choices now. One is to put on your clothes obediently and come back to with me. The other is for me to get someone to help you put on your clothes and take you back. I'll give you three seconds to think."

"One, two, three."

Almost as soon as Mona finished speaking, Maxwell's voice sounded. "Fuck, it's so late at night. How annoying."

Despite his complaints, Maxwell still got out of bed and casually put on some clothes.

'Mona is crazy. Since she said so, she might really kidnap me.'

For the past few days, Mona had almost gotten used to Maxwell's swear words. She just listened and did not say anything. Even if she ordered Maxwell not to do that, Maxwell would not listen. Maxwell opened the door and saw Mona standing at the door with her arms crossed. He said coldly, "Let's go!"

From here to the Clem's place, it was silent in the car. Even the sound of breathing could be heard.

Soon, they arrived at the Clem's place, Maxwell and strode in without waiting for Mona,

After entering, Bernard hit Maxwell's back with his walking stick. Maxwell was stunned for a moment. Bernard's experienced eyes stared at Maxwell's eyes. After Mona quickly entered, she saw such a scene. Benard and Maxwell were looking at each other.

She could see the anger in her grandfather's eyes and the hatred in Maxwell's eyes.

Bernard still wanted to hit Maxwell to vent his anger. Mona quickly stood in front of Maxwell and said, "Grandpa, did Maxwell do something wrong?" Tue, Dec 3

She patted Bernard's back to help him catch his breath. This was the first time she had seen Bernard so angry. He hit Maxwell without asking anything. Bernard looked at Maxwell and then at Mona. He said coldly, "Maxwell, follow me to the study."

After the two of them left, Jane pulled Mona to the sofa in the living room.

"Mona, don't blame your grandfather for beating Maxwell. What he did today really made your grandfather so angry." Jane said. Not only was Bernard angry, but she was also angry. "W-What's wrong?" Since Jane said so, Maxwell must have done something unforgivable.

Jane sighed and said, "It's a real estate that Maxwell managed to snatch from the Carter Group before he lost his memory. The construction could start right after Maxwell signed his name? Maxwell not only didn't sign it, but he even rejected it directly. I don't know what Maxwell was thinking, but the land was taken over by the Carter Group. The Clem Group lost a lot of money. This was originally the Clem Group's first job next year, but it can only be delayed now."

"Grandma, is there any way to get a piece of land now?" Mona asked. She was getting more and more confused about Maxwell's thoughts. She did not know why he did not sign it. The company had earned 40 million dollars less. It was normal for Bernard to be angry and want to beat Maxwell.

"There's no other way. The Carter Group has acted very quickly. Both parties have already signed the contract. We can only accept this loss for nothing," Jane sighed.

Soon, Maxwell and Bernard came out of the study. Maxwell looked cold and distant. Bernard was so angry that his face turned red.

The four of them sat on the sofa. Jane poured a glass of coffee for Bernard and handed it to him. She comforted him, "Don't be angry. Money is not important It's not worth it to be angry."

Maxwell sat beside Mona. There was still some distance between the two of them. Mona could clearly see the veins on the back of Maxwell's hand bulging.

"I'm not angry. I'm not angry. I just feel that it's not worth it for Maxwell before he lost his memory. How long did he prepare for this real estate project? Now, he said that he doesn't like this person-in-charge. His effort was wasted. And now, his archenemy got the project. What should I say?" Bernard was so angry that he slapped his thigh. The sound was exceptionally loud.

"Grandpa, don't be angry. It's just that Maxwell hasn't thought it through yet," Mona said. She was puzzled and didn't know what Maxwell was thinking.

Bernard placed the cup in his hand on the coffee table and said indifferently, "Alright, I've already beaten him up. Let's forget it this time. If you can't make up your mind about anything important in the future, come and ask me. It's getting late. Don't go back tonight. Go upstairs and rest!"

After Bernard was helped out of the living room by Jane, Mona watched them leave before looking at Maxwell again.

"Don't be angry. Grandpa is like this. It's getting late. Go up and sleep!"

Maxwell did not say anything. He just stood up and Mona followed behind him.

After the two of them returned to their room, Mona remembered that her grandfather used to hit Albert with a walking stick. Every time he hit his back, there would be a red mark.

As she thought about it, she went to get the first aid kit and sat beside Maxwell. "Maxwell, take off your clothes. I'll help you apply the medicine on your back."

Maxwell stared at Mona and asked, "Are

you sure?"NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

Mona nodded. "Quick, let me see if my grandfather's beating was serious. You're too stubborn."

"Damn it, I just don't like that person in charge. I don't want to work with him!" Maxwell said angrily as he unbuttoned his shirt.

It was Mona who wanted to apply the medicine on him. He didn't ask for that.
