The Queen's Back

When she reached the door, she said, "Teddy, I still like you, and I still keep you in my heart. I hope that one day, you will see how great I am."

After leaving Powers Group, Barbara walked to her car in a daze After getting into the car, she did not start the car for a long time.

She wondered, 'Why is Mona so lucky? So many things happened, but why hasn't she disappeared from this world yet? All my miseries are caused by Mona. She's a mistake and the source of my pain. Barbara's hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. Veins bulged on the back of her hands. Her entire face looked so mad that it was terrifying. She looked like a demon who had just walked out of hell. Mona had no idea that Barbara's love confession was rejected by Teddy. If she knew, she would not sympathize with Barbara but feel happy instead.

Lily acted very quickly. When Mona returned to Star, Lily had already told those streamers to subconsciously mention that they had bought fake goods during their livestream at night. Mona asked the finance department to put down the bank accounts of these streamers and transfer the money to them after it was done.

Then, she began to draw designs in the Design Department. She designed her and Maxwell's down jackets, They were black and white. Mona already had some ideas in her mind. She just needed to present them on the design draft.

Due to the livestream, Ava and Mona decided to go home after watching it at Star at night.

After Mona told Maxwell about this, she received an aggrieved emoji from him.

She did not know where Maxwell had gotten this emoji from. The emoji looked cute and extremely aggrieved. Upon closer inspection, it actually looked a little similar to Maxwell, especially that pair of eyes.

What Mona did not know was that this set of emojis was specially designed by Maxwell. It was a cute version of him and

Mona.

Mona couldn't bear to leave him alone. She and Maxwell were usually very busy with work, and the only time they could get along together was at night. However, she had something on that day, so she could only let Maxwell stay home alone. Mona: [Alright now, Maxwell. Be nice. I'll go back after the livestream ends. When you're home tonight, warm up the bed and wait for me!]This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Maxwell sat in his office and sighed softly. He was a little unhappy. He always felt that work was more important than him in Mona's heart, but he could do nothing about it. He had to protect his beloved.

Maxwell: [I don't want to warm the bed alone. I want to warm it with you. I'll go to Star to accompany you after work and treat your colleagues to supper.]

When Mona saw Maxwell's WhatsApp message, she smiled. Just as she was about to reply that he could come if he wanted to, Maxwell sent another WhatsApp message. [It's settled then. I'll go home first.]

Mona thought that it was fine. She looked at the typed words in the input box and silently deleted them. However, the smile on her face remained.

At 6 p.m. in Nathontown, the sky was completely covered by darkness. A few stars were at the end of the night, emitting light. Some streamers' livestreams had already begun, Mona and Ava were sitting in their chairs. A big screen in front of them was displaying the livestream.

Mona wasn't focused on the livestream. She did not know when Maxwell would return home. She kept looking down at her phone.

18:15 Mon, Nov 2500

At six o'clock, Maxwell sent Mona a WhatsApp message. [Mona, I'm sorry, I can't go to Star to accompany you. I suddenly have a wine party to attend tonight, and I can't refuse. However, he supper I ordered for you will be delivered on time.] Almost as soon as her phone rang, Mona saw it. She understood hat Maxwell had something on, and work was more important.

Mona: [Got it. Don't drink too much. Tell me the location of the wine party.]

Actually, Mona did not like Maxwell participating in such a drinking party. There were all kinds of people in it, and many of them were married. However, those married men would still hug other women in their arms and chat happily. Although Mona knew that Maxwell would not do that, she felt uncomfortable when she thought of the many young beauties in the private room.

Mona thought that this was due to her possessiveness toward Maxwell.

She thought that she should go and take a look when the livestream was halfway through. She didn't want Maxwell to get drunk and have a pretty girl in his arms.

Maxwell quickly sent the location of the wine party and wrote, [If you want to come and check up on me, feel free to do it anytime, honey.]

Mona hesitated for a moment before writing, [Alright. If you're not done when I'm almost done here, I'll go see you.]

Maxwell: [Anytime.]

The livestream had just started on the Internet, and there were quite a lot of viewers online. After the spread of the livestream that night, the news of Stars' official website became a trending topic on Twitter. Mona felt that it was about time. Now, many people knew that the shop online was selling fake goods. She raised her wrist to check the time. It was already past nine o'clock. She looked up and saw her colleagues with supper in their hands. Mona tugged at Ava beside her and said, "Ava, I think it's about time. I'll leave now."

Ava ate the last bite of the taco in her hand and hurriedly swallowed it. She said, "Go ahead. The supper your husband bought is quite delicious. Don't forget to thank him for all of us."

Mona pushed her and said, "Hurry up and eat. Even eating can't stop you from talking."

Then, she carried her bag and walked out. Before Haley left, she even took a chicken drumstick. She would eat it before going to bed.

On the way to the private room, Mona realized that it was snowing. It was a little cold. Mona wanted to pick up Maxwell as soon as possible and go home to sleep.

Haley held an umbrella for Mona. Mona tightened her down jacket and hid her hands in her sleeves to keep herself warm. She went to the private room Maxwell mentioned with Haley.

When they arrived, Mona sent Maxwell a message. Soon, the door of the private room opened and Maxwell's face appeared in front of Mona. He reached out to hold her hand and said, "Come in quickly. Why is your hand so cold?"

Maxwell's hand was very warm, completely different from Mona's. The warmth spread from his fingers to Mona's entire body. Mona nodded.

After entering, Mona realized that it was different from what she had imagined. There was not a single woman inside. There were only a few middle-aged men with big bellies and Bud in the private room. They were still smiling when they saw Mona. Mona's face immediately turned red. She knew that she had overthought it. She felt embarrassed to stay or retreat now, so she looked at Maxwell with some blame.

Maxwell pretended not to see it. He held Mona's hand and walked in, letting her sit beside him.

The people around him called out to Mona kindly. Someone even poured a glass of wine for Mona. Unexpectedly, just as he placed it in front of Mona, it was taken away by Maxwell.

Mona smiled awkwardly and said, "Gentlemen, I'm not good at drinking. Sorry to let you down. Let me toast you with the coffee instead of wine."
