The Queen's Back

Of course, you can treat me well. I'm pleased you do. However you're too nice to me. You're so nice to me that removed the fish bones and gave me the fish meat as Albert said you even

"Did you hear what Barbara said at the dining table today? She was envious. She was envious that you treated me well. Wasn't she jealous later on? After being jealous, didn't she want to snatch you away?" Mona explained in detail, bit by bit, revealing her thoughts to Maxwell.

Maxwell knew what Mona meant at that point. He smiled and raised Mona's chin with his fingers and made her in his arms look into his eyes. His eyes did not hide his love. "Honey, are you jealous?"

Mona naturally saw love in Maxwell's eyes. It was full as if it was about to overflow. "Yes, I'm jealous! I don't feel comfortable when others are thinking about you!"

Maxwell belonged to her alone. Mona was especially domineering toward Maxwell.

Soon, a hearty laugh came from Maxwell's mouth. Mona was a lile embarrassed by his laughter. Maxwell had never laughed like that in Mona's impression. She even felt Maxwell's chest vibrate because of his laughter.

"You, Maxwell Carter, stop laughing. Is it that funny?" Mona covered Maxwell's mouth with her hands.

Mona did not move her hands away when she felt the scorching heat on his lips.

Maxwell finally stopped laughing after a long while. He kissed Mona's palm and played with it carefully. "It's not funny, It's just I'm happy. Also, Mona, you should rest assured because I only have you in my heart. Other people are just fleeting clouds to me."

Mona nodded. She had no doubts about the love Maxwell had given her. "I know. It's just you're outstanding. I feel uncomfortable when others are thinking of you because I'm petty. You don't have to treat me so well when there's someone else.*

The good relationship between her and Maxwell was not just for show at the dinner table. There was no need to show it to others.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

Maxwell held Mona's hand and said slowly, "Mona, even if I don't put food on your plate or hand you a tissue in front of other people, Barbara will still be jealous inwardly. She will be unhappy as your life goes smoothly and you're better than her. In the end, she'll do whatever she wants. Therefore, we can live as we want. We don't have to worry about her. She can only be jealous and say a few jealous words. If I suddenly don't put food on your plate at the dining table, not only will she see it, but Bernard and Jane will also see it. Then, they'll overthink."

Maxwell thought, 'The small matters like picking up food for Mona and handing her tissues during the meal, had become my habit. I do not want to change them and feel no need. If others are jealous, so be it. Anyway, I know I'm Mona's. No one can snatch me away! Mona thought about Maxwell's words and realized what he said made sense. She agreed and nodded.

'Barbara is jealous and upset, thought Mona again. 'What can she do? If Maxwell's heart is not in the same place as mine and he has some feelings for Barbara, Barbara naturally makes a move to Maxwell.

'However, Maxwell's heart is with me. What can Barbara do to Maxwell at the risk of completely cutting off contact with the Clem family? As long as Barbara isn't a fool, she won't do it.

The more Mona thought about it, the more she felt it was right. She looked at Maxwell and smiled foolishly.

On the other side, Barbara had resigned from the Clem Group. She learned from Mona and started preparing for her brand, but all the work would have to wait until after Christmas.

She had used the reason for her work for Teddy in the afternoon

What Mona thought was true. Barbara knew Maxwell did not have any thoughts about her, so she would not be stupid enough to seduce Maxwell. In the end, she could end up being known as someone who specialized in seducing Mona's man. Barbara felt uneasy watching Mona live so happily and wanted sabotage her. Barbara wished someone like Lydia could

come forward and be her puppet.

After thinking about it, Barbara thought Teddy would be a good choice for marriage. Maybe Teddy was Barbara's first man, she always had some feelings for him.

After a few photos and a series of provocative words, Elene, Mor's substitute, was no longer by Teddy's side. Now it was the time for Barbara to remind Teddy of her good side.

It was not Barbara's first time going to Teddy's villa. However, she was kicked out or couldn't even see Teddy when she went to see him.

'Men can be heartless when they make up their mindst thought Barbara.

However, Barbara was confident she could meet Teddy this time because she had the latest news about Mona.

Barbara felt exceptionally regretful when she thought about the fake Maxwell thing Gordon had done. She thought, "The fake Maxwell could have destroyed Mona. It was all Gordon's fault for not agreeing. It turned out that things did not develop as he had imagined, and he missed a good opportunity. 'Howeyer, Mona had been with the fake Gordon for such a long time. No one knew if anything had happened. The matter will leave a thorn in Maxwell's heart. Now, Maxwell still likes Mana and treats Mona as a treasure. It may not be the case as

me passes,' thought Barbara.

Barbara's mood improved a lot after thinking of those. When she arrived at Teddy's house, She looked at her appearance in the car mirror and touched up her makeup slightly. Then she walked toward the villa. Barbara rang

the doorbell and waited for a while, but no one came to open the door. She knew it was Teddy who had instructed. She was upset and picked up her phone to text Teddy

[Teddy, I just came from Bernard's house, where I learned a big secret about Maxwell. I want to talk to you about it!]

Then she stopped ringing the doorbell because she knew someone would open the door for her soon.

Just as Barbara had expected, it wasn't long before a servant came over, smiling and opening the door for her. Barbara thanked her nicely and walked in.

It wasn't the first time she'd been here. She knew where Teddy's room was and took small steps toward it.

Teddy's room door was open. Without hesitation, Barbara jogged over. As she had expected, the lights in it were not turned on, and even the curtains were drawn. The room was dark, and only a trace of light shone through the door. Meanwhile, Teddy sat alone on the wooden board on the ground with a bottle of wine in his hand. He looked dispirited. Barbara caught a whiff of alcohol as soon as she approached. Teddy held his phone in one hand and continued to drink with the other. His clothes were disarray and his chin was covered in stubble.
