Chapter The Queen’s 129
Chapter 129
Mona was confused. Since she traveled back in time, the consequences of her drunkenness had become more serious. Last time, she sang on the streets. This time, she fantasized that she was a mermaid. "Is, is this for real? How embarrassing." Mona took two steps back and distanced herself from Maxwell. That was awkward.
In fact, after being reminded by Maxwell, there were some fragments in her mind. She seemed to have asked Maxwell to catch her tears and said they were pearls. It was hilarious to think about it. After breakfast, the two of them bought gifts for everyone in the family, including Gordon, who Mona hated the most. She had no choice but to put on a show and not let others gossip about her. Mona looked at the watch and thought it would be a gift to the dog.
After that, the two of them toured around Horieta for two more days. Mona pulled Maxwell to take a lot of photos. Among them, they even updated their Twitter and Facebook to show off their love. The plane drew white silver lines in the sky, and Mona and Maxwell's honeymoon ended just like that.
The first thing Mona did when she got home was to put away her "tail" and the pearl bracelet. This was her alcoholic gift, so she had to keep it well. Perhaps when she got old, she could reminisce with Maxwell. Life returned to normal. It was almost Christmas.
On the day before Christmas, something bad happened to the Clem family. Bernard fainted and was hospitalized.
As soon as Mona received the news at home, she sent Maxwell a message and drove to the hospital.
Although it would be Christmas the next day, the company's matters had not been settled during their honeymoon. They still needed Maxwell to settle it.
Her grandfather Bernard was no longer young. Perhaps he had been exercising all year round, and his health had always been good. He rarely fell sick.
For some reason, Bernard suddenly fell ill. Mona was worried sick. As she drove, she prayed to God that Bernard would be
fine.
Mona treasured her life and the lives of her family. She wanted them to live well and live long. After all, the number of people who treated her well could be counted on one hand.
As soon as Mona stopped the car, she hurriedly pushed open the door and got out. She hurriedly walked toward the hospital's operating room.
Bernard had suddenly fainted. No one knew what was going on, so he was still being examined.
When Mona arrived, Jane was sitting on the chair at the door, crying. Jeremy was sitting beside her, comforting her.
"Grandma," Mona called out and sat beside her. Jane immediately held Mona's hand and said with a sobbing tone, "Mona, your grandfather will be fine, right?"
Bernard fainted while watching TV with Jane. She anxiously asked the servants at home to quickly bring him to the hospital. Then, Jane informed Mona and Jeremy.
Mona hurriedly nodded and said, "Grandpa will be fine. Grandma, don't worry."
She was comforting Jane and herself.

Chapter 129
Mona had just arrived when Maxwell made it there. He looked at Mona and Jane with a worried expression.
At that moment, the red light of the operating room turned green. The doctor walked over from inside. Mona and the others hurriedly went over worriedly and asked anxiously, "How is it going, doctor? Is my grandfather alright?"
The doctor answered, "The patient is getting on in years. He has to pay attention to his diet. This time, he just suddenly fainted. It's no big deal. He just needs to recuperate."
After hearing the doctor's words, everyone heaved a sigh of relief, especially Mona.

When she first arrived at the hospital, Mona was wondering if it was Jeremy's doing. It seemed she was overthinking. It was good that her grandfather was fine.
Bernard's fainting caused the Clem family to be extremely busy. Even Albert, who was in the army, took leave and came back.
Mona and the others were focused on Bernard. They did not notice that Jeremy had quietly walked out of the ward and into the corner of the stairs.
He sent a message to Beatrice. [Bernard has fainted. Can we stop the medicine?]
If someone were to look closely, he would notice Jeremy's typing hands trembling. It was winter, and there was still some sweat on his forehead. He was nervous.
Late at night, after everyone fell asleep, Jeremy drove to a villa in the suburbs alone.
He had just knocked twice when the door was opened. The woman's gentle face was revealed. It was winter, and she was wearing black lace pajamas, revealing her perfect skin and charming collarbone. She was even wearing exquisite makeup even in the middle of the night. The woman was none other than Beatrice.
When Beatrice saw Jeremy walking over, she immediately pulled him into the villa and closed the door. Her petite body leaned into Jeremy's arms and said, "Jeremy, you're here. How's Bernard's condition? Did the doctor not find anything?"
When she first heard Bernard had fainted, Beatrice was a little worried. She was afraid the doctor would find out something and trace it to her. However, on second thought, she had spent a lot of money to buy this medicine overseas. It was colorless and odorless, but it would gradually make the consumer lose his strength. The consumer would sleep longer than he was awake. In the end, he would die.

Nathontown's medical skills were not that advanced. The doctors probably would not be able to find anything.
Jeremy held Beatrice's shoulder tightly and said, "He hasn't woken up yet. The doctor hasn't found anything."
Upon hearing Jeremy's words, the corners of Beatrice's mouth curled up slightly. And her eyes revealed a greedy gaze.
Then, Jeremy said, "Beatrice, let's stop, okay? All these years, I've secretly transferred Clem Group's money elsewhere. We've got more money than we can spend. Why do we have to get Clem Group?"
After spending so much time with Bernard and Jane all those years, Jeremy seemed to have developed some feelings for them. When he knew Beatrice was going to poison Bernard, he disagreed. However, Beatrice kept playing the sympathy card with him, so he had no choice but to give in.
When Beatrice heard Jeremy's words, she immediately stopped smiling. She said sternly, "Why? Why do you think so? For so many years in the Clem family, Barbara and I worked so hard to take care of Bernard and Jane. In the end, something happened, and we got involved with Emily's accident. Then we were chased out by them.
I've been begging for Jane's forgiveness every day. What about her? She's so heartless. There's no room for negotiation. I want to see how noble her family is without Clem Group."
Towards the end, Beatrice's eyes were filled with hatred, and her tone was vicious. She swore in her heart, 'I just want to see
