The Queen's Back (Mona and Maxwell) novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117
When Maxwell returned at night, Mona told Maxwell about Richard’s visit in the morning. In the end, Mona asked, “Do you think I made the wrong decision to reject Richard?”
Mona felt she did nothing wrong, but Richard was Maxwell’s grandfather. She feared Maxwell would feel uncomfortable because of her decision. Right then, she just wanted to love Maxwell and repay Maxwell for the kindness he had shown her before.
“You did the right thing. Lydia did something wrong and must be punished. Also, if there’s something you don’t want to do, don’t. I will support you.” Maxwell hugged Mona in his arms.
Mona was the light in his heart. Maxwell was already happy that Mona would be with him. Mona could do whatever she wanted, and Maxwell would be on her side without any objections.
Just like that, the Nathontown design competition and Mona’s kidnapping came to an end. Life was peaceful.
Mona and Maxwell’s wedding was on the schedule as autumn passed and winter came.
On Saturday, Maxwell brought the Carter family to the Clem family to discuss the wedding.
Bernard and Jane were satisfied with their grandson-in-law, Maxwell. Knowing the Carter family would visit, they told Polly and the maids to buy groceries and prepare lunch early in the morning. When Maxwell and the others arrived, lunch was almost ready.
Mona had been living in the Clem family for the past two days. When she heard Maxwell was there, she went downstairs to welcome him.
Perhaps it was because she had lived with Maxwell for many days, Mona had gotten used to having someone by her side when she slept. She had slept on the big bed for the past two days, feeling uncomfortable as if something was missing.
When she went downstairs, Mona saw Maxwell among a group of people. He was tall and handsome, and he was often the most attractive.
Mona smiled at Maxwell and then greeted the elders beside Maxwell. Ever since Mona rejected Richard’s request, the two of them had not seen each other again.
Mona originally thought Richard would be angry with her, but Maxwell had always said Richard would not. Now that Mona saw Richard again, she felt Maxwell was right because when she greeted Richard, Richard responded kindly.
The entire family sat on the sofa in the living room. Polly served coffee to everyone, and the two families began to discuss the wedding details.
Mona and Maxwell sat together. During this period, Maxwell secretly held Mona’s hand in his. After not seeing her for two days, he whispered in her ear, “I miss you.”
Mona smiled, and the corners of her mouth subconsciously revealed a faint smile.
In the end, their wedding was set for the 19th of December. It was a good day to get married and engaged. Then, they began to discuss and prepare the details of the wedding.
After Maxwell and Mona registered their marriage, Maxwell had Mona’s wedding dress ready, so the workload was reduced a
lot.
Both Mona and Jane gave Maxwell a thumbs up, and Jane said, “Well done.”

In Nathontown, the marriage between Maxwell and Mona was a big deal. After confirming the wedding time, Maxwell asked Nigel to post the wedding announcement online.
For a moment, the Internet was in an uproar. It hadn’t been long since the two of them got engaged. Was it because they were in love or because of a marriage alliance? Of course, everyone was more inclined to the latter.
After all, it was a hot topic in Nathontown that Mona had publicly changed her fiance.
Mona did not pay much attention to this gossip. The best way to stop the rumors was to use practical actions. The rumors would naturally break down after she married Maxwell and lived a good life.
Mona did not participate much in the wedding preparations. Someone was there to provide her with clothes and jewelry. She just needed to make a choice.
She spent her time at home, staying with her grandparents and shopping with Ava. The wedding dress Maxwell had ordered was in her fitting room.
On this day, when Ava and Artemis came to the Clem family for Mona, Mona first showed the two around the Clem family before coming to the fitting room.
The diamond-studded wedding dress hung high in front of them. Ava and Artemis were so shocked that they could not say a word.
After a long while, Ava exclaimed, “I can’t wait. How I wish it were the wedding day today.”
Mona covered her face with a smile in her eyes. She didn’t even know when Maxwell had got the wedding dress. The wedding dress would take a long time to make.
Artemis looked at the letters on the neckline of the wedding dress. She stretched her hand and put it down. “Mona, can I feel the dress a bit?”
Artemis wasn’t sure if she was seeing things. After all, Danielle Dalton rarely designed clothes anymore, not to mention making such a tedious wedding dress.
“Of course, feel free,” Mona said generously.
When Maxwell asked someone to send the wedding dress over, Mona liked it very much with just a glance. The wedding dress was filled with diamonds and was dazzling. However, because of the special design, it did not look exaggerated at all. Instead, it was stunning.
After getting permission, Artemis slowly stretched out her hands and felt the collar of the wedding dress. She stared at the two letters without blinking.
After a while, Artemis said in surprise, “Yes, Danielle Dalton designed it. Do you know Danielle Dalton? She’s especially popular domestically and overseas. However, she’s designing very few clothes now, but she designed this wedding dress.”
Mona knew the person Artemis was talking about. Danielle used to be Mona’s favorite designer and idol. After Artemis said that, Mona also saw Danielle’s unique mark and was especially excited.
Mona did not expect the wedding dress she would wear to be her idol’s work. Her emotions were indescribable.
“I know who Danielle is. I love her design. No wonder I liked this wedding dress the first time I saw it,” Mona said happily, wondering how Maxwell had got Danielle to design a wedding dress for her.
After discovering the small surprise, Mona looked forward to the wedding even more.
After Mona sent the two off, she turned and saw Teddy in the villa. She did not want to talk to Teddy. She tried to walk around Teddy and enter, but Teddy dragged her back.

Mona looked at Teddy as if she were looking at a fool and fumed. “Why are you pulling me back? Are you crazy?”

Life had been different. Teddy had not pushed Mona down the top floor or gone against the law, so she could not send him
to prison.
“Mona, are you going to have a wedding with Maxwell?” Teddy asked in disbelief. He couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw the news online the day before.
