Chapter The Queen’s 106
Chapter 106
"Hello, this is Nathontown Police Station. You are suspected of kidnapping. Please come to the police station." The cold male voice came from the other end of the line. Lydia was silently reading it from inside. The police station! Her face instantly turned pale. She was so frightened that she hurriedly hung up the phone in her hands. Then, she felt it was unsafe, so she hurriedly turned off her phone and threw it into the trash can beside her.
However, she still felt uneasy. 'Will the police come here to arrest me? She thought, 'With so many people here, the police might not be able to find me. After the show, I'll immediately leave the country and return after some time. I can't go to prison, or my life will be stained. After thinking it through, Lydia quietly returned to the dressing room.
Mona handed the dress she designed to Artemis and walked out. The two of them happened to meet at the entrance of the dressing room. Mona looked at Lydia meaningfully. Then, Mona walked toward Maxwell. She was almost certain that the person who kidnapped her was Lydia.
Before Mona could walk to Maxwell, Maxwell waved at her, indicating for her to come over quickly.
When Mona sat beside Maxwell, Maxwell whispered in her ear, The police chief just called to say that he found the person who kidnapped you yesterday."
Maxwell paused for a moment and said, "It's Lydia. That was also something he had not expected.
Mona nodded and said, "I guessed it. However, this person is your childhood playmate. Will you help her?"
When she asked the question, Mona was worried because she did not know if Lydia was Maxwell's ex-girlfriend or if Maxwell had completely gotten over Lydia.
Maxwell's sharp eyes met Mona's as he said seriously, "No, she will pay the price for kidnapping you."
His tone was serious without any hesitation. Mona was content when she heard that. Her soft hand quietly held Maxwell's big hand as she said, "Maxwell, are the police coming soon?"
Maxwell clenched the soft hand in his palm and wrapped it up. "Yes, the police are coming soon."
"Can you tell the police to come later?" asked Mona.
"Huh?" Maxwell did not quite understand what Mona meant. If it were him, he would have rushed to the police station to catch the bad guy.
"Maxwell, just listen to me and tell the police to come over after the modeling competition ends, Mona said coquettishly. She wanted to let Barbara and Lydia know that even if the two of them could participate in the modeling competition, her work would outcompete them. Maxwell met Mona's sparkling eyes and nodded subconsciously.
At that moment, the two hosts slowly went on stage. Each of them welcomed everyone to the Design Competition. Then, Bernard announced the official start of the Design Competition.
After that, the hosts introduced the judges for the Design Competition and the designers who would draw lots to go on stage. After the preliminaries and the semi-finals, a total of thirty designers entered.
Chapter 100
Mona didn't seem to be lucky. There were thirty designers, and she was No. 28, near the last. The judges and audience would feel aesthetic fatigue at the end, so Mona was unlucky.
Mona took the number plate to find Artemis in the backstage. When she saw Teddy at the door, Mona acted as if she didn't see him and just walked past him.
Just as Mona was about to walk in, Teddy grabbed Mona's arm and shouted, "Mona, I have something to ask you."
Mona shook off Teddy's arm and fumed. "Let go of me. I have nothing to say to you."
After finally waiting for Mona to come alone, Teddy wouldn't give up. He stood in front of Mona and said, "Stop fooling around. I have something to ask you."
"No matter what you want, I don't want to talk to you," Mona said as she walked away.
Seeing Mona was about to walk backstage, Teddy said to Mona loudly, "Mona, I had a dream. In the dream, we were engaged. After that..." Later, Mona was pushed down from the top floor of the hotel by him and Barbara.
Those words sounded magical. Ever since he was beaten up and warned to stay away from Mona, Teddy gradually began to dream. And it was magical. The content of his dreams every night was more or less continuous.
well. In the beginning, he dreamed of what he had done recently until he engaged to Mona. In his dream, he was doing very On the one hand, he was engaged to Mona, who was good to him and took his "advice" of giving up her job and taking good care of him at home. Also, Teddy and Barbara were fine because Barbara and her mother had not been chased out of the Clem family.
However, the moment Teddy opened his eyes, things would change. Mona was no longer his fiancée, and Powers Group development was not good, either. As for Barbara, she was not as good to him as he had dreamed. Recently, he had been thinking how good it would be if his life was really like what he had dreamed, but not like it at the moment, when everything was not going well.
Upon hearing Teddy's words, Mona stopped in her tracks and said with a trembling voice, "Since it's a dream, it's impossible."
She seemed to know in her heart that Teddy was talking about what happened before she traveled back in time. However, Teddy was talking about what happened in his dream. She was different. She had experienced it.
Mona pondered. After becoming Teddy's fiancée before, I lost myself. I lost my career and gradually became distant from my grandparents. I did not even have time to contact Ava. All I did was to please Teddy's family, not having any space for myself at all. 'I had thought everything I did was to move Teddy and make him love me more, but it turned out I was the only one who was touched.
"In the end, Teddy and Barbara worked together to push me from the top floor, ending up with a horrible death!
After saying that, Mona walked straight in. In the past, for the sake of so-called love, she lived without self-esteem. She never wanted to go back to such a life.
Teddy looked at Mona's slender back and slowly fell into deep thought. That's right, During our engagement ceremony, Mona seemed to have become a different person. Based on my understanding of Mona, it was when she found out about the affair between me and Barbara that I explained it to her later. I even gave her flowers and a car. I guessed Mona would be touched, but Mona did not react at all. Something did not seem right."
