Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 221

There were only two people left in the bedroom quietly. Jonas wanted to catch up with Melinda and explain, but was stopped by Vern.

Seeing that Melinda was so sad, Vern blamed himself.

It was his fault that Melinda felt uncomfortable.

"Jonas, you're a good boy and you've always been excellent. When my father said he wanted to marry Melinda to you, I thought she must be lucky,"

Vern sighed with emotion. His family was just civilian, and he had a career, but that was to make his family a little rich, which was not able to compare with Gu's family.

At that time, he wondered what irritated Leonard so that he could have such an impossible idea.

When what he thought came true, Jonas's indifferent attitude towards Melinda made him believe that everything was true. Since then, he had been worried that Melinda might have a hard time in the Gu family.

Melinda had always been keeping worries from them and only telling them good news. So many years had passed, but he still knew nothing about the marriage.

"I'm so lucky to have met Linda."

Jonas always knew that the marriage was unequal in many people's view, but he didn't expect that even Vern thought so.

What kind of pressure did Linda come under when she stayed with him?

"Don't beat around the bush. I only have one question to ask. I hope you can give me a serious answer."

Vern's eyes became serious, instead of the kind and pleasant look he had had in front of Jonas before. Jonas could not help but straighten his back.

"Is it because of Emily that you divorced from Mellie?"

If Jonas loved someone else, he would never let his daughter suffer this.

"Yes. But it's not because I like Emily, but because Linda's afraid that she might get hurt because of Emily." Hearing this, Vern looked pale. Jonas explained more clearly, and then Vern's expression became better.

"Dad, you and I can swear that I will only love Linda in my whole life. I don't love Emily at all. It's just a mistake."

Afraid that Vern might retort him and take the side of Melinda, Jonas said hurriedly.

"Everyone can say sweet words." Vern hummed coldly and included himself.

"Dad, please trust me. I'll definitely woo Linda again and let her be willing to remarry me." Jonas had always been a calm person, and now he was even more firm in making a promise in front of Vern.

At the thought of Melinda, Jonas didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. Melinda didn't know how much her father cared about her, though she couldn't see.

"I trust you, son. I just hope that she could think it through as soon as possible," Vern said with a sigh. Although Melinda looked peaceful, she was very stubborn in her bones.

"Dad, don't worry. I won't let you down."

Hearing that, Vern felt relieved finally, but he still warned him in a harsh voice. "If you make Mellie hurt, I will never let you go so easily."

"I will spoil her."

The two men looked at each other and smiled at the same time.

"She's a stubborn girl. I don't think it's easy for you to please her. Just go." Vern felt relieved a lot after he got the promise of Jonas.

Jonas was about to go after her just now, but Vern stopped him.

"Take care of yourself and call us if you feel uncomfortable," said Jonas. He didn't stay long, because he was worried about Melinda's safety.

At the same time, in Emily's apartment, after being cleaned up, Jerry finally looked human.

"Those we hate are different. Are you sure we can cooperate?" Jerry did not forget that last time when they cooperated with each other, Emily had private interest in Jonas, which interrupted his long prepared plan and ended up in such a bad situation.

"People we hate are not the same, but we have the same goal," Emily said confidently. She took a bottle of red wine from her wine cabinet and mixed it with wine.

Jerry looked at Emily in confusion, wondering what she meant.

"Isn't Melinda Jonas's favorite person now? If something bad happens to Melinda, he will be the one who suffers more, right?"

Emily swirled the red wine in her glass with a cruel smile on the corner of her mouth. If Jerry could turn his target to Melinda, that would be the best ending.

Jerry squinted and thought carefully about the meaning of Emily's words. He thought it was very reasonable and asked, "Have you thought about how to deal with Melinda?"

"Jonas is protecting her very well. I can't find a way out for the time being." As Emily spoke, she raised the goblet and drank up the wine in it one gulp. She knew that she couldn't revenge immediately, which made Jerry a little depressed. Thus, he drank up the wine in front of him.

Both of them were depressed. They had partners and goals, but they could do nothing.

"When can I take my revenge?" Jerry said. There was a rage in his chest. The anger accumulated as he did not burst out.

Before Emily could say anything, the doorbell rang. She wondered who it was for no one had come to the apartment since the accident.

"Your lover is looking for you now?" Jerry teased. There was some change in his eyes. Emily had been getting along with these kinds of men over the years, so how could she not understand the meaning of it?
