The Queen’s 178
Mona's uncomfortable groan almost sent Maxwell away. The towel in his hand almost fell. He did not dare to look at Mona
anymore.
Maxwell took a deep breath before wiping Mona's back more gently. After helping Mona put on her pajamas, he immediately went to the bathroom to take a cold shower. When he returned, the desire in his heart had been extinguished. He sat by the bed and quietly admired Mona's sleeping face. He sat for a while before lying next to her.
As soon as Maxwell lay down, Mona rolled into his arms. Her hand even subconsciously wrapped around his waist. This had become her habit.
Maxwell met Mona's beautiful face and could not help but raise liis hand to caress her face. From her long, thin eyebrows
this much. down to her rosy lips. Maxwell had never paid this much attention to a person
At that moment, he seemed to have seen the most precious thing in his eyes. He stared fixedly at Mona's face and could not bear to look away. His fingers caressed her soft lips repeatedly, and his gaze deepened.
Mona was sound asleep, but she felt a hand on her lips and felt uncomfortable. She subconsciously twitched and opened eyes Immediately, she met with Maxwell's loving gaze.
her
Looking at the handsome face before her, Mona could not help but hold her breath. Her heart was pounding. Mona was annoyed but did not know how to vent her anger. She held Maxwell's slender hand and asked softly. "Why aren't you asleep?"Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Mona couldn't tell the time. She felt like dreaming, but the person before her and his touch felt real. Maxwell was wide awake and stared at her. Feeling she had already changed into her pajamas, it was obvious that Maxwell had helped her. He also must have wiped her body. However, Mora could not care less about being shy. She only wanted to sleep. Her eyelids were heavy and she wanted to close them again.
"Looking at you, I can't bear to sleep," Maxwell said honestly.
Upon hearing Maxwell's words, Mona unconsciously smiled. She held Maxwell's hand and placed it on her chest. "Go to sleep. You need to take care of many things tomorrow. Besides, you can see me whenever you want."
Maxwell hummed softly and kissed Mona's forehead before closing his eyes. Indeed, tomorrow would be a busy day. But that night, they slept soundly. Perhaps because they knew they had each other.
The next morning, the first thing Mona did when waking up was take a shower in the bathroom. Although Maxwell had wiped her body last night, Mona knew there were parts he avoided wiping. She felt she wasn't clean enough. Moreover, she just had a car accident and was almost killed.
Since Mona's neck was still injured, she avoided washing her hair and neck. She used shower gel and applied body lotion. Only then did Mona feel clean
Later on, Maxwell helped her clean her hair. He rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong arms. Then, he used warm water to wet Mona's hair and squeezed the shampoo into his palm. Maxwell evenly placed it on Mona's head and rubbed it slowly. Mona lay on the sofa in the bathroom and enjoyed Maxwell's treatment. His fingers massaged her scalp and her smooth long hair. Her hair was naturally good. Her long hair reached her waist without any forking.
Mona enjoyed the comfort that Maxwell gave her. A comfortable numbness slowly spread from her scalp to her entire body. It felt unbelievably comfortable
Meanwhile, Maxwell served Mona sincerely. He applied conditioner, hairdryer, and conditioner oil. He was taking good care of her hair.
After Maxwell washed Mona's hair, he went out and saw Polly had already prepared breakfast and placed it on the dining table. They had many things for breakfast. There were mashed potatoes, tenderloin steak, veggies, and fruits,
When Polly saw them leaving the bathroom, she immediately called them over for breakfast. Mona smiled and thanked her for her hard work. Then, she pulled out the chair at the dining table and sat down. Maxwell followed closely behind Mona and sat beside her. Because of so many dangerous things that just happened, Mona did not have much of an appetite last night. She did not even eat much the entire day. But looking at the delicacies before her, Mona's appetite returned. She even had her usual double-portion breakfast. Her portion was almost as much as Maxwell's. After all, she was starving.
After breakfast, Mona planned to see Teddy. No matter what, he was injured because of her. It was only right for her to visit him. But Maxwell was reluctant to let her go alone. Hence, he accompanied her.
Teddy had woken up at midnight. When he saw Nigel beside him, he was quite surprised. But then, seeing Maxwell enter while hugging Mona's waist, his expression turned bitter. Regardless of whether he was willing to accept it. Mona no longer loved him. She had become someone's wife.
Sadness swirled in Teddy's heart, making him feel abnormally uncomfortable. The pain in his heart seemed to be more serious than the pain in his body. Mona noticed his bitter look, brushed away Maxwell's hand on her waist, and took a step forward. "How are you feeling?"
It had been a long time since Mona had been so kind to Teddy. Seeing how gentle she was toward him, Teddy seemed to have been transported back to his uni days. Teddy recalled every detail of Mona's kindness to him. Her thoughtfulness, and the smile that appeared before him every day.
Immediately, regret dominated his thoughts. He couldn't believe he had missed an opportunity to live with such a pure hearted woman. At that moment, he could only watch her laugh happily in someone else's arms. There was nothing he could do about it After suffering a stab wound on his back, he could only lie on the bed. Teddy suppressed the emotions in his heart, shook his head, and said, "Well, I feel much better. Then, he turned his head to the side. Mona and Maxwell could no longer see the emotions on his face. Mona nodded and looked at Teddy calmly. From what she could tell, there was no hatred in his eyes. It was as if he was looking at a stranger who had nothing to do with him. However, Mona still expressed her gratitude. Thank you for yesterday. If you need anything, you can tell Maxwell or me. We will try our best to help you," Mona said.
