The Queen's Back novel Chapter 322

Chapter 322 

In fact, Brendan more or less knew about Mona’s life during this period of time. She established her own brand name and opened a clothing store. The only pity was that her child had been gone. At that time, he happened to be overseas on a business trip and was so busy with work. When he heard it, it had been half a month later, so he did not mention this matter again, not to bring up her teary past. 

Mona forced a smile. “Not bad. Seriously, I can’t take your money for free. It’s all in this card.” As she spoke, she reached out and pushed the bank card to Brendan. She suffered a pang of conscience taking so much money from, who had also helped her a lot. She was willing to call him Brenny intimately and had been used to it. 

Brendan’s expression darkened and pushed the card back to her 

He crossed his hands naturally and stared at Mona with a pair of penetrating eyes that seemed to be able to read people’s minds. “I never take my money back. Since you called me Brenny like my sister, this is what you deserve.” 

“But…” Mona felt conflicted. 

“Just accept it. As I said, you treat me as your brother so I regard you as my sister. What’s wrong with the brother giving money to his sister? Also, if you have any problems, you can tell me. I’ll try my best to help you solve it Brendan took a sip of the coffee. 

He might not be able to solve it 100%, but would do his best to help her. He could tell that Mona had forced a smile on her face. She must have encountered something troublesome recently, but she did not trust him and remained taciturn. 

Mona pursed her lips when she heard his sincere tone. “Do you really treat me like your sister?” 

Brendan chuckled. “I’ve already made it so obvious and you still don’t believe me? Don’t be overthinking. I just dote on you as a younger sister. In a few days, I might be able to get you a sister–in–law. I’ll introduce her to you then.” 

However, Mona’s sister–in–law was a little difficult to woo, unlike other women who would cling to him to show their love. 

A faint smile appeared on Mona’s face. It seemed that she was right. Brendan really treated her as his sister. “Get a sister–in- law? Shouldn’t you chase after her?” She just felt like his wording sounded like a kidnapper. 

“Alright, it makes no difference. So I’ll chase after her.” Brendan smiled and compromised. 

Mona smiled. ‘You’re really thinking ridiculously.‘ 

Brendan just asked her out for coffee and asked about her life. And she still hadn’t given the money back. ‘Forget it. I’ll just give it back to that sister–in–law in the future. I’m just keeping it for you for the time being. 

Brendan did not ask Mona to stay for dinner because he had to rush back to Noretin immediately. 

After Mona left the cafe, Brendan asked his subordinates to check on Mona’s recent situation and most importantly, her relationship with Maxwell. 

Maxwell should accompany Mona here as usual no matter how busy he was, but she came out alone tonight. So perhaps Mona did not tell Maxwell about this at all. Or Maxwell did not take it to heart. Either of these two situations meant that their relationship met a challenge. This was also what Brendan could see from Mona’s eyes. 

After Mona and Haley left the cafe, they went to the second floor of Pleasantview Plaza to see how many customers there were in Star with Christmas around the corner. 

She had just taken a few steps out of the cafe when she saw Teddy rushing after her, who was standing in front of her and blocking her way. 

“What’s up?” Mona asked coldly.

Teddy looked into Morra’s eyes and nodded. “There’s indeed something, Moria. I have something important to tell you. It’s getting late. Why don’t we have dinner together and talk about it I know a good faplelian restaurant nearby. Would you?” 

Mona was not curious about the so–called important thing that reddy was talking about, nor did she want to eat with him. In her heart, she bore no love nor hatred toward him. She just treated him as the most ordinary stranger on the street and did not want to have much interaction, let alone have dinner with him. 

“No need. Then, she said to Haley, “Let’s go!” 

Teddy looked at Mona’s resolute back and said coldly, “Mona, I know Maxwell’s secret. He lost his memory. So are you interested in having dinner with me now?”
