Forgive My Ex-husband

Chapter 62 A Quarrel

Jonas was sitting alone and the food on the table remained untouched. Melinda pulled a chair and sat

next to him. She knitted her eyebrows and studied his face. He was grumpy and annoyed.

"Why don't you eat something?"

Melinda shook her head, picked some food for Jonas, and a dessert for herself. The chaos had made

her ravenous.

When she took a bite and savored its taste, her eyes flitted to Jonas. He was staring at her coldly.

She finally put the chopstick down and stood up to greet Kent and his relatives.

She bid goodbye to them and went home with Jonas. The drive to the villa was quiet and Jonas was

still irritable.

Melinda walked into the villa and plopped heavily on the sofa. She heard angry footsteps that vibrated

through the carpet.

Jonas stood in front of her, breathing heavily. The collar of his coat was crumpled as if he had been

crushing it in anger.

Melinda couldn't understand what was wrong with him. He was annoyed during the wedding and was

behaving the same way even after getting home.

Jonas's eyes were fixed on Melinda. He was staring at her almost as if he was trying to read her mind.

Melinda shifted on her seat as she became uncomfortable by the intensity of his gaze.

She finally tilted her head and looked at him. The vein on his forehead was pulsing wildly as he was

trying hard to control his anger.

She wondered what she had done to upset him. She moved aside and patted on the empty side of the

sofa, motioning Jonas to sit down.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked, knitting her eyebrows.

"Wow! So you don't know why I'm upset? Kent is finally married but you're still involved with him. Did Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

you ever think about me?" Jonas growled.

Melinda understood that Jonas was furious because of what Kent said during the wedding. She was

annoyed too and didn't put up with him.

Melinda glared at Jonas. She was mad at him for not trusting her. How dare he question her?

"I'm not involved with him. Kent is just my friend," Melinda yelled.

"He is just your friend?

Is that what he is? Then why are you still involved with him?"

Jonas asked, arching an eyebrow. He didn't seem to believe her.

Melinda closed her eyes and blew out a loud breath. She didn't want to argue with him.

She opened her eyes and her face softened. She understood that Jonas was annoyed because he was

possessive of her.

Jonas's words were coated with jealousy. He couldn't see her getting closer to Kent.

Melinda's heart bubbled with joy.

She needed to clearly explain her relationship with Kent. Otherwise, Jonas would torture himself

thinking about it.

Jonas was incredibly stupid to be insecure because Melinda only cared about him and not Kent. She

would never get involved with him.

"What do you want, Jonas?" Melinda asked softly, trying to hide the happiness simmering in her heart.

She was ecstatic to find out that Jonas was jealous.

"I want you to stay away from others, except for me," Jonas said possessively.

The usual arrogance and cockiness were gone. He was vulnerable almost as if he was afraid of losing

Melinda.

"I'll stay away from everyone but you. I promise,"

Melinda said sincerely.

Jonas's body seemed to visibly relax.

He nodded and remained quiet.

Having told her what she needed to do, Jonas stood up and left.

Melinda's face broke into a moronic grin as he watched Jonas leave. She clamped her mouth with her

hand that muffled her laughter.

Melinda understood that Jonas cared about her but his anger always frightened her.

When Melinda went to her room at night, she saw that Jonas was already lying on the bed with his

back towards her.

Melinda understood that he was still angry.

She sighed and lay on the bed next to him.

Jonas was completely still. Melinda smiled and wrapped her arms around his waist from behind.

She felt his muscles stiffen under her fingers but they seemed to relax immediately. But Jonas didn't

utter a word.

Melinda closed her eyes and drifted off to a peaceful sleep with a smile on her face. Melinda's breath

was rhythmically blowing against Jonas's neck. He understood that she had fallen asleep.

He rolled closer to her side and held her in his arms.

The morning light bounced off Jonas's face. He didn't realize when he had fallen asleep but as he woke

up, he saw that Melinda was resting her head on his chest. A smile tugged at the corners of his lips.

Jonas closed his eyes and remembered the argument they had the previous night.

He was furious and had asked Melinda to stay away from everyone but him.

His face flustered with embarrassment. He wondered if Melinda had sensed the jealousy in his tone.

His mind was clouded with anger and he didn't realize what he was saying.

But Jonas was surprised by Melinda's unusual calmness.

She had even promised to stay away from others, which gave him immense joy.

Melinda slowly opened her eyes. Jonas's manly scent filled her lungs. She snuggled closer and

realized that Jonas wasn't mad at her anymore.

She was overjoyed but didn't want to show it. She pretended like she wasn't interested in talking with

him.

Jonas became more embarrassed when he saw that Melinda was awake. He knew that it was his fault.

He shouldn't have yelled at her. But he felt too awkward to apologize to her.

He sat up, smoothed Melinda's hair, and got out of bed.

Jonas cleared his throat. "Well, it's time to get up."

When Melinda's eyes met his, he quickly averted his gaze and turned away.

Melinda glanced at Jonas. She couldn't help but smile at how adorable he was. She bit her lip and sat

up.

Melinda knew that Jonas was too embarrassed to apologize to her but she didn't seem bothered about

it. She would be happy as long as Jonas wasn't mad at her.

They soon forgot about the argument and got along well with each other.

As Melinda had promised, she stayed away from others.

Everything was back to normal and the two of them became closer than ever. They hardly quarreled,

and even if they did, they would resolve soon.

Emily was aware of everything. Her hatred for Melinda grew even more.

Jonas and Melinda were inseparable and it wasn't easy for her to break them up.

Emily was disappointed and frustrated. She decided to find another way to get rid of Melinda.

Her thoughts wandered to Yulia. She always considered Melinda as a potential threat and wanted her

out of the Gu family, so that she could seize the position of Nelson's favorite granddaughter.

Therefore, Emily decided to team up with her and take Melinda down.

Emily arranged a meeting with Yulia. The two of them were sitting at a cafe.

"What do you want from me?"

Yulia asked, coming straight to the point.

She knew that Emily had called her to discuss something important. Otherwise, she had no reason to

meet her.

"I want you to do something for me,"

Emily replied.

"Huh? What do you want me to do?"

Although Yulia wasn't interested in helping Emily, she was curious to find out what she needed from

her.

"I want you to help me get rid of Melinda,"

Emily said, clenching her fists. The mere thought of Melinda infuriated her.

"What made you think I will help you?" Yulia asked, arching an eyebrow.

"I know you hate her as much as I do."

Emily sneered.

"So What's your plan?"

Yulia asked, rubbing her hands excitedly.

"Isn't Jonas's company looking for the spokesperson for the key product?"

Yulia nodded, gesturing Emily to go on.

"I know that Melinda has applied for the position. She will be attending the interview." Emily massaged

her temples and continued. "I've applied for the same position and I'll be attending the interview with

her. Once we work together and repress her, I will become the spokesperson.

I'm cannot wait to see Melinda's sorry face when she finds out that she isn't the spokesperson."

Emily smirked.

Yulia pursed her lips and thought about the plan.

She finally decided to work with Emily. Everyone in the Gu family celebrated Melinda and Yulia would

replace her position if she managed to get rid of her.

"Okay,

I'll help you,"

Yulia said, extending her hand for Emily to take. This was a rare opportunity and she didn't want to

miss it.

Emily shook her hand and smiled. Yulia and Emily worked together and managed to defeat Melinda.

Emily became the spokesperson of the key product of Soaring Group.

Emily wasn't surprised by the result. No matter how talented Melinda was, she was still a loser as she

had failed in the interview.

Melinda could be with Jonas now but Emily was sure that he would come back to her sooner or later.

Emily was proud of herself and couldn't wait for Jonas to find the result. He would understand that she

was a beauty with brains, whereas Melinda was just an ordinary woman.

She was overjoyed and wanted to dance in celebration.
