To be honest, Nigel also felt that Maxwell waspletely different from the past, but never suspected that he was fake because Maxwell had lost his memory. This was a convincing reason to exin his current strange behavior and thoughts. After all, it was almost impossible for two people in the world to look exactly the same.
Now that Nigel heard Mona''s words, he even hoped that there was a CEO far away in Welinter and it was that old Maxwell, who had effective methods, incisive ideas, and great talent in business.
As for Maxwell''s private assets and subordinates, Nigel did not even have the chance to tell him about these things. Now that he thought about it carefully, it was better to wait until he sent people to finish the investigation in Welintern.
"I don''t have any evidence, so I don''t dare to make a certainment. Just take it that my mind is running wild. Forget it." After saying that, Mona continued, "Nigel, you should send someone to Welintern as soon as possible. I feel so uncertain." Thest time she dreamed that Maxwell was locked in the basement andst night she saw that he had a mole on his right shoulder, she felt even more uneasy.
"Mr. Carter, I''ll get my men to Welintern for investigation as soon as possible and focus on that doctor," Nigel said. If someone else had made such a request, he might not have suspected their true motives. However, Mona was different. She was Maxwell''s wife and the person he loved deeply, who always deserved his unconditional trust.
Mona nodded. "Thank you, Nigel. I hope I''m just overthinking. After this matter is resolved, just give the feedback to me alone. Don''t let anyone else know." She was afraid that people would find it out and sow discord between her and Maxwell. "Don''t worry, I know this." Nigel nodded.
After he sent Mona back, he immediately contacted the two people he trusted the most and asked them to go to Welintern and added that they could use extreme methods to get an authentic result.
Mona went back to her room. In this sleepless night, she felt exhausted inside and out. She was not used to sleeping alone. When shey on the bed these days, she would hug Maxwell''s old clothes to make herself better. Smelling his scent, she feltfortable as if he was by her side.
Mona slept in a daze. In the end, she was woken up in frustration by the ringing of her phone.
She opened her bleary eyes and saw that it was Barbara. After a series of calls, her phone was still ringing. Mona was almost filled with anger and finally answered the call.
Almost as soon as the call connected, Barbara''s excited voice jumped out from the other end. "Mona, I also want to establish my own brand. Grandpa let me ask you for some advice. He said that you''re at home now, but the maid didn''t let me in." Her tone sounded aggrieved. After all, it was really awkward to get blocked outside her cousin''s house.
Mona could even imagine Barbara''s expression. She believed that her cousin knew she was not willing to talk, or she wouldn''t have mentioned Bernard. She was just here to show off to warn her in advance that she wasing to be herpetitor and snatch the market. After all, she was the figure who represented the country to participate in the Design Competition and won an award, so her name was gilded and much more famous than Star.
"Don''t say that. You made me feel ttered. I should congratte you on winning the award. It''s my honor to provide some advice to you if I really could," Mona said. She did not want to have any interactions or fake a sisterhood with Barbara now that Albert was not around. She didn''t even have the intention of letting the servants open the door.
A momentter, before Barbara could say anything, Mona yawned naturally and saidzily, "Barbara, if that''s the case, you
ater, befor can go back first. I''m so tired, I''ll continue sleeping." As soon as she finished, Mona hung up the phone right away. It was almost time for lunch but she still decided to take a nap.
When she woke up again, she heardughtering from downstairs. This familiar voice surely belonged to no one but Barbara. She patted her forehead in frustration. ''How did this woman get in?''
Before Mona reached downstairs, she saw Maxwell. Then she instantly knew who had brought Barbara in. It was out of her

surprise that he was not at thepany today.
"Mona, you''re finally awake. I have been waiting for you for a long time," Barbara said with a smile when she saw Mona walking down. She did not feel awkward at all after being rejected by Mona at the door, nor did she bear any resentment in her heart. Barbara might not pursue the matter of Mona locking her outside the door, but Maxwell did. "Mona, what''s wrong with you? How could you let your cousin wait outside? Hurry up and apologize to Barbara."N?velDrama.Org content rights.
Mona was kind of down. Maxwell''s tone sounded so sincere and intimate. Before he lost his memory, he would never take Barbara to heart.
Mona''s gaze
did not stay on Barbara for too long but couldn''t move from Maxwell, who looked so unfamiliar in every way.
Now that Maxwell was speaking up for her cousin, Mona''s expression was kind of gloomy.
Then her kindness and innocence made Barbara smile and try to smooth things over. "It''s alright, Maxwell. It''s my fault for not informing Mona in advance and disturbing her sleep. On the surface, she was helping Mona, but in reality, she implied Mona waszy and didn''t even get up at noon.
"Barbara, how could this be your fault?" Maxwell said that to Barbara. Then he looked at Mona opposite him and ordered, "Mona, are you mute? Apologize to Barbara right now!"
Mona nonchntly retracted her gaze and said indifferently, "Are you done? I''m going to the kitchen."
Maxwell pointed at Mona''s face with a ferocious expression. "Mona, you, you''re insane!"
"Maxwell, don''t say that. Calm down. I know Mona didn''t do it on purpose." Barbara smiled.
