Along the way, Mona only quietly watched the environment outside and did not speak to Maxwell. She knew that Maxwell was not worried about her when she was missing.


    The car stopped safely in the vi. Maxwell had not slept all night, so he naturally would not go to thepany and walked into the vi with Mona.


    Maxwell walked in and Mona followed behind him. When Maxwell entered the room and was about to close the door, he saw Mona standing at the door. He could see fear and grievance on her face.


    He thought that Mona must have been frightened by what happenedst night. "What''s the matter?" Maxwell asked.


    This was the first thing Maxwell said to her after she returned safely. It was also Mona who deliberately forced him to say it.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.


    Mona nodded and said aggrievedly, "I''m scared, Maxwell. I want to sleep in the same room as you. Don''t worry, I''ll sleep on the sofa, not the bed."


    While speaking, Mona grabbed Maxwell''s clothes and refused to let go, looking pitiful.


    "Come in. In any case, if anything happens, I won''t be the one to suffer a loss," Maxwell said indifferently.


    After saying that, he walked into the room. The corner of his shirt slipped from Mona''s palm until the corner of his shirtpletely disappeared. Only then did Mona follow him in.


    She thought about what Maxwell had said. "In any case, if anything happens, I won''t be the one to suffer a loss."


    She did not know if she was overthinking it. ''It''s because he''s not Maxwell that he would say that.''


    After entering the bedroom, it looked the same as before. There were shadows of Mona and Maxwell interacting in every corner of this room. Instantly, Mona had mixed feelings in her heart.


    With that thought in mind, Mona sat on the sofa and looked at the big bed beside her.


    Thick curtains had been drawn in the room. It was clearly daytime, but it was very dark. It was like nighttime. Maxwell had already changed into his pajamas and was lying on the bed. He had no intention of caring about Mona in the room.


    In fact, Mona had considered using the tes and forks that Maxwell had touched, hoping topare and verify them for fingerprints. However, she worried that the fingerprints might be iplete, leading to a potential error in the examination. After contemting this, Mona ultimately decided it would be safer to obtain aplete fingerprint from Maxwell directly.


    Mona felt highly tense as she had something on her mind. She had not rested for the entire night but did not feel like sleeping.


    As time passed, Mona heard steady breathinging from the big bed. Mona secretly took out the ss item she had just prepared.


    She had searched online and gathered that if fingerprints were left on non-porous surfaces like metal, stic, or ss, they were rtively easy to examine. Therefore, when she was at the Clem family residence, she had prepared a ss item for this purpose. She quietly held the ss item behind her and walked toward the big bed, looking at Maxwell, who had fallen asleep.


    A dim light came out of nowhere and shone on his wless face, revealing his exquisite facial features. Looking at him, Mona felt a little dreamy.


    She called out Maxwell softly, her heart beating rapidly. She was afraid that Maxwell would suddenly wake up.

    ''Great'' she called out a few times but Maxwell did not respond to her. It seemed that he had already fallen into a deep sleep.


    Her eyes noticed Maxwell''s well-defined hand and she bent and walked over with the ss item. Her other hand pressed Maxwell''s finger against the ss, and I was obvious that there was a fingerprint on it. The corners of Mona''s mouth curled into a smile.


    Mona''s heart was pounding non-stop as she quickly ced the ss item into the bag she had prepared. She then silently walked back to the sofa.


    After sitting on the sofa, Mona could feel cold sweat on her back After taking a few deep breaths and calming down, Mona contacted Nigel. Mona was relieved to have left this matter to him.


    As soon as Mona spoke, Nigel knew what Mona meant and replied to Mona: [Madam, if you''re avable, you can send the ss item to Clem Group now. If not, wait for me to collect it in two hours.]


    He had a very important meetingter, attending on behalf of Maxwell, and could not be absent. Otherwise, he would have gone over as soon as he received Mona''s WhatsApp message. After all, this matter was rted to Maxwell and he took it very seriously. Mona quickly replied: [Nigel, I''m fine. I''ll bring it to you now.]


    Now that she had this fingerprint in her hand, she had something on her mind and was not sleepy at all.


    [Okay, Madam. Send me a message when you arrive.]


    [Okay.]


    After Mona sent Nigel a message, she got up from the sofa. Seeing that Maxwell was still sleeping soundly on the big bed, she heaved a sigh of relief. She tiptoed to the room door and gently opened it. Maxwell was still showing no signs of waking up; her nervous heart rxed.


    After closing the door, Mona quickly went downstairs. There was a carpet that Maxwell had asked someone toy on the stairs. When Mona stepped on it, she would think of Maxwell''s love for her.


    She took a deep breath and went to the garden outside the vi to call for Haley. The two then left for Clem Group. When she arrived, Nigel was already waiting at the door. Mona did not go in and handed the prepared item to him.


    "I''m counting on you, Nigel. Also, if there''s any news from Welintern, please let me know immediately," Mona said anxiously.


    She did not dare to imagine. If what she was thinking was true, what kind of torture had the real Maxwell experienced? ''Does he eat well and sleep well? Where''s he now?'' She desperately wanted to know.


    Nigel nodded. "Madam, don''t worry. I''ll inform you as soon as there''s any news. I know someone who will take two to three days to get the results of this fingerprint test. By then, the person who''s gone to Welintern to investigate the matter will be back. It''s just nice." Mona nodded and said solemnly again, "I''m counting on you, Nigel."


    "Madam, this is what I should do. After I finish the meeting on behalf of the president, I''ll contact the person. Don''t worry, Madam. The truth will be out soon."


    After hearing Nigel''s words, Mona nodded and left without interrupting Nigel''s work.


    After settling the matter, Mona waspletely rxed and also felt sleepy. The streets were filled with traffic, and Mona did not intend to continue going around, so she told Haley to drive her back.


    It would be Christmas in about five days. Mona wanted to figure out what had happened before Christmas and celebrate the


    New Year with Maxwell-
