Chapter 329 Emily's Intention
Seeing that Melinda and Emily were together, Jonas was totally freaked out. Without thinking anything, he rushed forward quickly, pulled Melinda behind him and protected him from being hurt. He and Emily looked at each other, and there seemed to be a knife in his eyes, which made Emily unable to hide.
"Emily, stay away from Linda. Otherwise, I will show you no mercy."
Jonas's eyes became fierce. His face was cold and frightening, but when he stood in front of her, Melinda felt a sense of security.
Last time, Jonas had somebody beat Emily up in order to prevent Melinda from thinking that he was ruthless. Thinking of what Melinda had said, he had been trying to change his character, too. But he wouldn't mind turning himself into a devil if those people stopped being cruel.
He didn't want to talk to Emily at all. Seeing that there was no danger around, he took Melinda directly into his car. Melinda was still in a state of shock and was taken away by Jonas.
She came here today to sever the relationship with Emily. But why it turned to be like this at last.
Although she was confused, she felt angry for no reason when she saw Jonas. She shook off his hand and sat on the side.
There was a big space in the car, but Melinda pretended that there was a deep gap between them, which made Jonas's heavy mood greatly slow down.
"What the hell is going on?" asked Melinda. She remembered that Emily had told her that they would be together, but why it was so abnormal when Jonas appeared today and gave Emily a warning. She seemed to have forgotten some important information, but she couldn't remember it now.
"Linda, are you a fool to come out to see Emily? Why did she arrange the meeting place at the seaside? She wanted to take advantage of it and hurt you!"
said Jonas helplessly. Melinda was smart when fighting with him, but she was somewhat stupid when fighting with Emily.
The beach was a little far from the urban area, so there were not many surveillance cameras and people here. It was more convenient for Emily to do something to Melinda.
There were countless homicides at the seaside every year. Even if he suspected Emily, he could not prove it.
"Emily is ill. It is cancer," Melinda said. She suspected that Emily was lying to her, but she heard the news from the doctor yesterday that Emily was advised to have a treatment. So she bought it.
"A bad thing never dies, Emily is fine, you don't need to worry about it." Hearing this, Jonas felt that Melinda was too stupid to believe in the nonsense of Emily.
Jonas couldn't help but feel a little bit jealous. He was so serious but he couldn't compare with Emily.
Melinda was still a little stunned. Then, Jonas talked about all these things that happened recently with Melinda carefully. At last, he was sure that Melinda was deceived by Emily. "She has gone too far!" Melinda said angrily. She had been preparing to make an end to the relationship with Emily, and if the final ending was her life, she would die. Thinking of this, she felt a pang of fear. She still didn't keep an eye on Emily.
"You can trust me more in the future," said Jonas in a helpless tone. After all, Melinda trusted him less.
For a couple, love and trust were the two things that could support their relationship to the end.
Melinda didn't say anything, but it seemed that there were letters on her face that showed that she didn't trust Jonas at all.
Seeing that she didn't say a word, Jonas began to worry about her again. When he was about to comfort her, he felt that what she needed now was a lesson.
Hesitating for a while, Jonas chose to give her a sweet warning in the end.
"Melinda, if you don't trust your husband in the future, the consequences will be serious," Jonas warned her at first, but he was so serious that only three seconds later, and soon he changed his attitude. "Linda, I hope you can understand that I will never fall in love with Emily. I did not fall in love with her before. How is it possible now?" said Jonas. He had said that for many times, but every time when Emily appeared, Melinda had forgotten it completely.
"You're an excellent woman. You're the best in my heart. You're the only woman I love. Trust me and give yourself more confidence, okay?"
Though Jonas said so, he felt a little powerless in his heart. He knew that it was all because of the stupid things he had done that Melinda was like this.
That kind of thing made Melinda extremely insecure.
But it was a fact and what had happened. Since it was useless to say anything more, Jonas didn't mention it any more.
Melinda still didn't say anything, but the expression on her face changed subtly. It was a relief to know that she was listening.
Jonas's bossy look really gave her a sense of security. She thought she might be a masochist, otherwise why would she think in this way.
In fact, she thought it was just because Jonas was always a domineering man who made decisions. He was so gentle that she felt unrealistic. "Then what about the photos?"
Melinda's heart sank at the thought of those obscene pictures.
"What photos?" asked Jonas, who was confused by the sudden question.
Seeing his reaction, Melinda began to doubt the authenticity of the photo. After all, what Emily had said and done was generally untrue.
If Jonas really did something wrong, he should feel guilty at this moment, but not in this way.
Melinda thought to herself. She felt a little embarrassed to tell Jonas about the photos, but she didn't want to make herself feel uncomfortable. So she told him frankly.
"Linda, I swear that those pictures must be fake." Jonas made swear at once.
"If not, I will lose my true love forever."
It was the biggest punishment for him to lose Melinda. He swore that he would never hurt her, which convinced Melinda completely. Besides, she was angry with herself for being deceived by Emily again and again, with a short memory.
Her consciousness was weak when she was beaten. There had been too many things happening in the past few days, and Melinda had been immersed in sorrow. Now when she thought carefully, she found too many loopholes.
It turned out that she had been deceived by Emily from beginning to end, but she believed it foolishly. Emily must have been very proud when she saw it in the dark.
"It's all over now. Don't think too much, okay?" Jonas comforted her, but Melinda was still somewhat resistant to him.
What's more, the thing with Emily seemed to be a blow to her, which made her feel a little autistic.
After she thought everything through, she felt like an idiot.
Jonas drove Melinda back to their apartment, where only the two of them lived. Due to low spirits, Melinda didn't pay much attention to where she was now. She went to the bedroom, grabbed a pillow and leaned against the bed. Jonas knew it was a little movement during Melinda's thinking, so he didn't disturb her. But he didn't leave. Last time, he went to the study to spare room for her, which almost made him lose her.
In fact, Jonas didn't feel better than Melinda. He was always on tenterhooks, worrying that Melinda would be cheated again, as she would leave him at any time. Jonas really hated Melinda's not trusting anyone.
It was getting late. Jonas called the housemaid in the Gu's mansion and asked her to bring a lot of food materials here. He personally cooked for Melinda. Mr. Gu, who had taken off his suit, was a thoughtful husband.
Melinda smelt the food and went to the kitchen. Seeing that Jonas was cooking soup, she couldn't help but feel a little greedy.
"You finished thinking about your life?" Seeing that Melinda was approaching, Jonas teased her, and she felt even more depressed.
She didn't know why she had believed what Emily said, but she was clear in her heart that it was because of Emily's means that her defense of her mind was broken by Emily's fright. Pregnant women were fragile.
Suspicion after pregnancy was almost a skill, though Melinda didn't like it very much.
"I'm hungry," Melinda said while touching her stomach. Seeing that, Jonas pulled a long face all of a sudden. He took her to the dining table, on which there were four dishes already. And every dish he cooked was that Melinda liked. She smiled immediately, and he put the last soup on the table.
"Let's eat." Touching Melinda's nose with a finger, Jonas said. Then he served her by himself, which made her feel happy all of a sudden.
This meal was her biggest meal in the past few days. Seeing that Melinda had a good appetite, Jonas felt relieved secretly. Vern had told him that she had no appetite.
That's why he decided to cook for her himself today. He wanted to make sure that Melinda ate more.
Melinda's eating, was the greatest affirmation to him
After helping Melinda settle down, a servant was arranged to stay in the living room by Jonas before going out.
Ted was acquainted with a lot of people, but Jonas had his own connections in secret. The most famous detective organization in A City was set up by his friend.
He wanted to find out why Emily did all these things this time, because he felt that all of this must have something to do with Jerry.
The friend knew Jonas cared about this incident, as he had gone to talk about this to him in person.
"Don't worry. I will find out it," the man said and Jonas nodded to show his agreement.
The reason why he turned to them was that they would try some special ways to get the truth.
