The Queen's Back

Mona sighed. She changed her clothes and put on light makeup before leaving the bedroom. Before she left, she asked the servants to clean the room. It was a mess, and Mona did not want to clean it up. "Haley, just go straight to Star." Mona did not say anything else after instructing her.

The car drove smoothly on the road. Mona looked out of the window at the busy streets.

She was thinking about her and Maxwell sitting outside eating roasted beef kebabs.

Maxwell had lost his memory, and Mona honestly could not accept it because everything was different.

While Mona waited at Star, someone greeted her. It was almost Christmas, so the number of employees at Star had decreased significantly, but Ava was still around.

After arriving at Star, Mona told Haley not to follow her anymore. Haley went to a resting area to play games while Mona walked to Ava's office door.

The door was open. Mona saw Ava still reading documents, knocked twice and looked up.

Their eyes met, and Ava smiled at Mona. She quickly waved for Mona to come in.

"I thought you wouldn't come before Christmas? I didn't expect you here today."

Ava got up and went to the side to get Mona a bottled decaf.

Mona sat on the sofa and took the decaf from Ava. "I came over because I had nothing to do at home."

"Where's your husband?" Ava asked as she opened the decaf in her hand.

Speaking of which, Mona sighed. "He said he went out to eat with some friends."

Ava was surprised. "Didn't he lose his memory?"

"Yeah, I guess they met last night while playing games," Mona said after siping her decaf.

"Playing games. Are the two of you still sleeping on the same bed?" Ava asked curiously.

Mona shook her head, her eyes filled with melancholy. "No, I slept in the guest room last night."

"Mona, don't be sad. Give your husband time to adapt slowly. He probably hasn't recognized the fact that he's already married."

"That's true. I'm just thinking of taking it slow with Maxwell!" Mona said.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Think about what you want to eat for dinner. Let's go have a meal," Ava said as she held Mona's shoulder.

Mona nodded. "I don't want to think about it anymore. Let's decide what we're having for dinner and invite Elara along. Artemis is currently filming in Noretin, right?"

"Yeah. Hurry up and check your phone. I can't wait to eat," Ava quickly said.

In the end, Ava also called Elara and Haley in the office. The three of them chose what to eat for dinner. They talked about other things and gossiped about Artemis and that investor. Mona forgot about all the grievances in her heart. Eventually, they decided on a restaurant called BBQ Prime Grill According to the online reviews, it had the most succulent

beef and delicious grills-in-4qwn.

Mona and

the others drove to BBQ Prime Grill. As soon as they arrived, they realized the location was better than they expected. It was close to the river, and they could enjoy the cool breeze and natural view.

Mona felt it would be perfect if it were summer, but it was winter now. They were already freezing to death, so they were not in the mood to enjoy any breeze. They asked the manager to be seated in a private room upstairs.

As they dined, Mona told Maxwell what she had eaten all day. However, she waited for a long time, and Maxwell had not replied to her. When the waiter served their dishes, Mona stopped worrying about her phone and started eating.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Mona returned to the villa. She walked around but did not see Maxwell, and she could not help but worry. She took out her phone and called Maxwell.

The phone rang several times, but Maxwell hadn't picked up.

Just as she was about to call Nigel to ask if he knew where Maxwell was, she heard her phone ring. It was Nigel calling.

She quickly pressed the answer button and answered the call.

"Mrs Carter, are you free now? Mr. Carter is drunk and wants you to pick him up."

"Nigel. Send me the address whenever you can. I'll come now," she agreed.

As she spoke, Mona called Haley again. It was past ten o'clock in the evening, and she and Haley were going to pick up Maxwell.

It was still very cold. Mona remembered that Maxwell only wore a suit jacket when he went out at noon. She was afraid that Maxwell would get cold, so she made sure to get him a jacket.

Nigel told her to come to Mystique, and once she arrived, she saw Nigel waiting in the lounge.

When Nigel saw Mona, he quickly walked over. "Mrs. Carter, you're here. I'll take you to Mr. Carter."

Mona nodded. "Sorry for the trouble, Nigel."

Nigel said, "It's okay. It's what I do."

When they got to Maxwell's room, Mona knocked on the door. An unfamiliar face came to open the door.

"Hello, I'm here to pick up Maxwell," Mona said, revealing a standard smile. She tried not to make her presence awkward. The man in front of her touched his chin and said with a smile, "It's the missus. Come in quickly. Max is inside!" Mona nodded, thanked him, and walked into the room.

As soon as she entered, Mona choked on the foul smell of smoke inside. She endured the discomfort and immediately saw Maxwell among a group of people.

Wherever Max was, he would often be noticeable at a glance, éven among a crowd. He sat in the main area with two gorgeous beauties beside him.

In front of Mona, someone actually dared to feed Maxwell strawberries. Maxwell glanced at Mona and even ate it.

Immediately, Mona felt her anger and grievances raging again. If Maxwell dared to do anything else, she would throw her handbag at his face.

"Do you see? This is my wife. I told you she's prettier than the beauties here. You guys even said I was bragging. Now that you've seen her. Tell me!" Maxwell removed his hand from the shoulders of the two beauties beside him and admired Mona. 18:49 Sat, Nov 30NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

The hazy lights in the room shone in her direction, highlighting her body.

"I'm too inexperienced. I didn't know that the missus was such a beautiful woman. I wonder if she can do me the honor of drinking a glass of wine?"

The man who had just opened the door for Mona spoke and openly ogled her.

When Mona arrived, she had just returned from having dinner with Ava. She wore a red coat that did not hide her curvy figure. She had put on light makeup and had a cherry shade of lip gloss on her lips, looking sexy. At that moment, she shot Maxwell a seductive look. At first glance, she looked like someone who had walked out of a television drama. She was graceful and strikingly beautiful.

"Isn't that for sure? Max is so generous. How can Mrs. Carternot honor us with her presence? Hurry up and make room for her. Pour the wine!"

"Max, you're right. Mrs. Carter is so beautiful. No wonder you don't like anyone in this private room. It turns out you already keep an angelic beauty at home."
