The Queen's Back

When Albert discovered Jereiny would be executed in two months, he could not describe how he felt. His father had murdered his mother and was going to pay for what he'd done. He couldn't help but wonder why power was so important to him.

As he thought about it. Albert made his way to the state's prison. He looked at Jeremy across the railing. It had only been a few days, but he had aged to the extreme. There were even injuries on his face. It was obvious that he had not lived well in prison and had been bullied.

Albert picked up the phone but did not know what to say. He didn't even want to call Jeremy his father anymore. He felt uncomfortable knowing his dad was a heartless person.

"Albert, be a good person, and don't be like your father, Jeremy aid with tears in his eyes. After coming to the prison and learning he would be executed in two months, Jeremy had been thinking about the joy, sorrow, and regret of his life.

"Don't worry, my grandparents raised me right. I'm different from you. But let me ask if you regret what happened now. Do you regret destroying my mother's brakes? Do you regret poisoning Grandpa? And do you regret trying to kill Mona?" He started cold, but he ended up shouting at him.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Jeremy did have many regrets. But the thing he regretted most was colluding with Beatrice. The moment after he met her, his life took a turn for the worse. After gaining respect from his colleagues, he wanted more. His desires became boundless.

In prison, Jeremy thought for many nights about what his life would be like if he never met Beatrice. If he consistently treated Emily well, loved her, doted on her, and even treated Mona well, perhaps Emily would one day fall for him. least be touched. He and Emily would have grown old together

"Regret? Why bother? I'm reaching the end of my life now. There's nothing I can do but accept everything Jeremy said while chuckling.

Thope the afterlife won't be so bad for you, Albert said. After that, he wanted to hang up and leave.

But before Albert hung up, Jeremy hurriedly said, "Albert, can you ask Mona to meet me? I have something to ask her." He wanted to know about the memo in Emily's phone. It was the only thing he wanted to know before he died.

TIl tell her, but don't get your hopes up. After all, you tried to kill her." With that, Albert hung up and left the prison. There was no need to say anything anymore. Jeremy committed those shameful and heartless things for power and money.

After leaving the prison, Albert sent a message to Mona, saying that Jeremy wanted to see her. Albert didn't care if she went or not. After leaving the prison, he left Nathontown and returned to the army. He didn't want to stay there any longer and hear people talking about Jeremy.

When Mona received Albert's message, she was drawing designs for the company. She took a look at the content and felt conflicted. But in the end, she decided to make time to see Jeremy.

When it was almost time to get off work, Mona received a text from Maxwell, telling her to go straight home after work. However, she took a taxi to the prison. There, Mona told the police why she had come. The police asked her to wait in the reception room. Mona waited for a while before she saw police slowly walking over with the crippled Jeremy. He had heavy handcuffs on his hands, and his eyes had already lost the light of life.

When Mona looked at Jeremy, Jeremy also looked at Mona and was surprised. Her face became more and more like Emily's It was as if he was looking at the younger version of Emily. Jeremy could not help but feel a little dazed

"What's the matter?" Mona went straight to the point. There was no need for her and Jeremy to exchange pleasantries.

"Mona, can you tell me the memo inside Emily's phone?" Jeremy asked impatiently.

Mona chuckled and stared into Jeremy's eyes. She asked, "I know you weren't the only one who destroyed my mother's brakes. Beatrice is also involved, right? If you didn't tell the police about this, then there's no need for you to know the information in my mother's phone."

"Mona, what do you know about that?" Jeremy asked in surprise.

Except for him and Beatrice, no one else knew that Beatrice took part in killing Emily. He couldn't help but wonder if Mona had found solid evidence. However, if she had one, the police should've arrested Beatrice at that moment. Thinking about it, Jeremy felt that Mona might be testing him, the man who had raised her until her twenties.

"I know everything. I know that you took the blame for her and that Beatrice was the one compromising the brakes." As she spoke, Mona looked at her polished nails. They were shiny.

"You're mistaken. I was the one who broke the brakes. It has nothing to do with Beatrice. Jeremy pretended to be calm. However, his legs were trembling unconsciously, making the gunshot wound in his leg hurt. He grimaced in pain, reflecting his nervousness.

"Is that so? Then I guess there's no need for me to come today. I wish you a safe journey to the afterlife, and please, send my regards to my mom. Mona stood up and suddenly remembered something. "Oh, I almost forgot! My mom hates you so much. I don't think she wants to see you.

Then, Mona was about to walk away, But Jeremy's hand tightly gripped her clothes. "If I can prove Beatrice was complicit in Emily's killing, will you tell me the memo?"

If he didn't know Emily had mentioned him in her memo, he wouldn't bother begging Mona to stay. But since he was about to die, this matter had already become an obsession. If he did not know what Emily said about him, Jeremy believed his soul couldn't rest in peace. "You need to know that I want Beatrice to pay for what she did. I want all the bad people who hurt my mother to be punished!" Mona clenched her fist and said with hatred. She wanted her mother's soul to rest in peace by bringing her killers to justice. Afterward, Mona walked out of the prison. Jeremy looked at Mom's back and saw another person through her figure and secretly made up his mind.

The feeling inside the prison was especially oppressive. It was pitch-black, and the environment outside was better. The sun was warm, and the wind was gentle. Jeremy wouldn't have ended up like this if he made the right decision to keep loving Emily unconditionally. Jeremy felt his initial love for Emily was pure. But along the way it was mixed with ill will, obsession, and personal interest which resulted in an unfortunate outcome. In a way, Jeremy had sabotaged his love life.
