The Queen's Back (Mona and Maxwell) novel Chapter 245

Chapter 245 

Ever since Mona got pregnant, it was obvious that she changed a lot. She cared about the baby all day long and only cared about eating and drinking. The hot summer was gradually coming to an end. She put on a loose sweater and one couldn’t tell she was pregnant. Whether it was in front or behind, it was not obvious at all. 

When Mona was three months pregnant, the Clem family finally announced this good news to her close friends and relatives. 

As for Maxwell, in order to let Mona rest well, Maxwell refused the people who wanted to visit in advance. 

Many elders wanted to build a good relationship with the Clem family. They sent Mona many congratulatory gifts. Nutritional supplements filled the storeroom. 

It was not that she did not want to see her elders, but sho as well draw the designs properly. 

simply did not want to sit down and listen to them chat. She might 

Of course, this news also reached the Carter family. Richard was both happy and angry. He was happy that the Carter family had a baby. He was angry that Maxwell really planned to leave the Carter family. He had not returned for three months. 

On this day, Maxwell went to work as usual. Now that the weather was not particularly hot, Mona asked the servant to bring a chair and table to the garden. She sat on the chair and drew a draft. Haley sat in the wheelchair beside her, and there were snacks in front of them. 

Haley looked at her feet. A month had not passed yet, and she still had to endure for more than a month. She couldn’t bear

Haley felt that the beautiful muscles on her body were slowly disappearing, turning into lumps of soft flesh. 

Looking at Mona beside her, it was very strange. She was clearly pregnant, but she was exceptionally slim. From her angle, she could still see the greenish–purple veins on her wrist. Then, looking up at her face, her chin was sharp and her pair of bright eyes were exceptionally beautiful. 

Perhaps it was because of her pregnancy, and Mona glowed with love. 

“Haley, you keep looking at me. Is there dust on my face?” Mona asked. 

Haley’s gaze was too burning. Even Mona, who was focused on the drafts, could sense it. 

Upon hearing Mona’s words, Haley retracted her gaze and said, “There’s no dust. I’m just thinking. Mona, why didn’t you gain weight?” 

She hadn’t exercised for such a long time, and the villa twice. It didn’t take long.

the same as her. In the evening, Maxwell would bring Mona around 

Mona touched her cheek. It still felt the same as before she was pregnant. In fact, it felt even perfect. No wonder Maxwell liked to pinch her face every night and the flesh on her body! 

“Maybe it’s because I’m pregnant. The baby absorbed some of the nutrition.” She was eating alone now, and both of them needed it. 

However, Sweet Berry was really obedient in her belly. She didn’t feel anything when other pregnant women vomited. The baby didn’t disturb her at all. She slept and ate normally. 

Now, Mona was leaning toward the fact that there was a girl in her belly. 

While the two of them were talking, Mona heard the bodyguard say, “You can’t go in.” Then, Haley, who was beside her, wanted to get up. Mona quickly held her hand and let her sit properly.

It would take her a month or two to recover from her injuries. Haley still needed to continue recuperating so that there would be no sequelae in the future.

This was a law–ruled society. Who would dare to hurt her in her house? Mona sat upright on the chair, waiting to see which bold person would dare to cause trouble for her. 

A moment later, Gordon appeared in front of Mona with many bodyguards behind him. 

After not seeing Gordon for a long time, Mona had almost forgotten about him. As soon as she saw him, Mona remembered the scene when she almost killed him in the warehouse. 

He really didn’t give her a good mood even when she was pregnant. 

“Why is the person in charge of Carter Group at my house today?” Mona put down the paintbrush in her hand and had no intention of getting up. 

“Mona, don’t forget. We’re family,” Gordon said with a smile. 

At the same time, he looked at Mona. It had been a long time since he last saw her. She seemed to have become much prettier. It had been three months, and her belly was slightly bulging. He could tell that she was pregnant and her figure was still so good. 

‘Someone said that having sex with pregnant women feels very good. Is that true? Perhaps I can experience it, he thought. 

“Are you joking? Don’t you know that Maxwell has already cut ties with the Carter family?” Mona said coldly. She looked at Gordon with disgust. 

When she did not like someone, she really did not want to pretend. In the past, she was still worried that he was Maxwell’s brother and couldn’t completely offend him. Otherwise, Maxwell would be in a difficult situation. Now that Maxwell had cut ties with the Carter family, she no longer had any worries. 

“Cut ties? Maxwell is from the Carter family. Mona, do you think it can be cut off?” Gordon placed his palm on the table and leaned over to stare into Mona’s eyes. 

He continued, “You’re pregnant and you’re not smart anymore.” 

As he spoke, Gordon leaned towards Mona. Mona subconsciously stepped back. Gordon grabbed her shoulder first. Mona was forced to lean forward. 

Haley wanted to push him over, but she was pressed into the wheelchair by Gordon’s bodyguards and could not move. Gordon leaned forward and whispered in Mona’s ear, “When you married Maxwell, didn’t you like Maxwell as the CEO of Carter Group? Now that I’m the CEO of Carter Group, do you want to change your husband?” 

She was so close to Gordon. When she smelled the smoke on his body, for some reason, Mona started to retch and feel nauseous. The food was stuck in her throat. Gordon reacted and let go of Mona’s shoulder.
