Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 167

Her heart still fluttered with fear of last appointment. She was afraid that it might be someone else she would meet in the appointment.

Her hesitation also awakened Queena. She explained, "last time I was busy and it was not appropriate to cancel your appointment, so I asked Jonas for help. It's absolutely me who comes to see you this time."

"Okay."

Since the Queena had spoken up about this, of course she didn't care about what had happened in the past. Queena was very happy when she saw that. Thinking of Melinda's interest in working, Queena decided to make the appointment at weekend.

"Since you do not go to the clothing shop with me, I feel like I've lost my military counsellor. I'll do some good shopping this time."

After some more small talk, they hung up the phone.

On the weekend, Melinda arrived at the shopping mall according to the address given by Queena. She was choosing clothes. Seeing that Melinda was here, she waved her hands happily. "You're just in time. I don't know how to match myself. I'm not satisfied with just a few suits I picked."

Melinda still felt guilty for making her elders wait for her. Queena solved this embarrassment. Melinda had a good eye for everything. She rearranged them. Queena praised her enormously.

"Young people know how to match well." Queena bought all the clothes selected by Melinda for her. Then they went other stores shopping again. Queena went around and accompanied Melinda to the young women's wear shop.

"Now that you are working outside, you should better dress yourself up. Don't waste your good taste on me." Queena looked gentle, but tough. Melinda didn't object and picked two for herself.

When they paid the bill, Queena was stopped by Melinda with a reason that no one was able to refuse.

"I haven't bought clothes with my own money for a long time. It's a spiritual satisfaction. I think I must be satisfied."

Queena was very casual when buying things. Her harvest was full in such a range. Queena asked people to send the things to the Gu's mansion, and Melinda put them directly in the store.

Lunch was solved in the hotel owned by Soaring Group. After the meal, they two took a rest in the private room, and the waiter left after making them a pot of green tea.

At this time, Melinda finally realized that Queena had something to say to her.

"Honey, now Jonas know he was wrong. I hope you can think about it."

Queena took a sip of green tea. The faint taste of the tea was not bitter, which was just enough at this moment.

"It's quite impressive."

"It seems that is second infusion."

"The first one is a little bitter, and the second one is just right." Queena didn't know why she said that.

Melinda smiled and nodded in agreement. Then she said, "all of them are made of the same tea, but I have tasted its bitter before. I don't like it even if it's second infusion."

Queena finally understood the meaning of Melinda's words. Even if Jonas had changed now, Melinda should have felt the sadness before, so she no longer liked him now.

"You just drank as well, didn't you?" Queena still tried to persuade her, but Melinda already had an idea. With a smile on her face, she said, "that's because you haven't tasted the first dish."

Melinda raised her eyebrows. Queena thought, 'it's hard to imagine her to be a person who has just experienced emotional ups and downs.' Queena is upset, but she doesn't blame Melinda for that.

Jonas deserved it. He was the one to blame for all this.

After all, he was his son, so Queena want to try her best to give him a hand.

"I don't want to ask you for anything else. But can you help me persuade Jonas? He's not doing well recently. I'm very worried."

Queena frowned slightly. She was not young anymore, and now she was concerned about Jonas's affairs, so there was silver hair. Even if it was covered well, when she frowned, faint thread formed from the corners of her eyes.

"I'm sorry, auntie. I can't help you." Melinda could understand her feelings. However, because of this, Melinda would not give a tiny bit of hope to her if Melinda can't do it.

Melinda took a sip of tea to make her dry lips feel better. Then she stood up and said, "aunt, I have something to do in the afternoon, so I have to leave."

Just then, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open. The two people in the room looked at the direction of the door at the same time. Wearing a suit, Jonas rushed over in a hurry. He walked toward Melinda.

Melinda's body shivered. He buried his head in the neck of Melinda and said hesitantly, "don't go, Melinda."

He happened to have a meeting upstairs and heard that his mother came to the hotel. With a lady who Queena called "Mellie" in an intimate manner.

After hearing this, he went straight to Queena's exclusive box, without giving up the meeting, and as expected, he saw the person he was missing of that day and night.

At this moment, only when they held tightly in the arms would he have a sense of reality.

Queena looked at his son's downcast face and walked out of the room silently, leaving room for them.
