Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 247

Knowing that Melinda was still preparing lunch, Jonas did not go to the company directly but stayed at Vern's home to accompany her. The lunch was prepared together by the two.

Although Jonas only learned several dishes, he was good at cutting.

Since they had a clear division of work, Jonas thought it was a rare opportunity. After discussion with Vern, he invited Nelson for dinner.

When Nelson saw that the two of them got along well with each other, he was very happy. When he had dinner, he acted like a gourmet and judged each dish highly.

It seemed that Melinda and Jonas had been closer after the cook. Victor was not in the mood to care about the business of the company, and as a result, the staff of the company finally relaxed.

Work was too little for Melinda, which made her feel that she was on a paid vacation.

The baby in the womb finally passed the troublesome period. Melinda had a better appetite recently. She ate much more, and she was more plump and energetic.

Such a peaceful life made Melinda feel happy.

But her calmness was doomed to be destroyed. As the child grew up, Melinda began to go shopping in maternal and infant shops like many mothers.

On weekends, she went to the shopping mall nearby her house. Sometimes, her servant would accompany her, and sometimes, she would be alone.

Today, Melinda sneaked out alone.

Wandering in the maternal and infant store, Melinda liked children's clothes the most. They were so small that she thought they were amazing.

She paid attention on comfort particularly about how to dress herself. However, when choosing her child's clothes, she would see a variety of things, such as design, materials, and even a small pattern, which would make her hesitate for quite a while.

Outside the maternal and infant store, Emily was looking at Melinda through the transparent glass window, her eyes full of jealousy.

Why could Melinda have all this, while she could only be in a dark corner like a rat crossing the street?

She wanted Melinda to experience the feeling of falling from heaven to hell. Emily thought maliciously and followed her with malicious eyes. Melinda selected a lot of things and walked out from the maternal and infant store.

It was at this time that Emily came back to her senses. Her purpose of today's visit was to find Melinda.

She quickly ran to Melinda and shouted, "Melinda, wait for a moment."

At first, Melinda thought she had misheard, but when she looked back, she saw Emily running in a hurry. Subconsciously, Melinda protected her stomach and hid aside.

Melinda's guard against Emily was very strong.

"Let's find a place to sit?" Emily looked at Melinda, pretending to be relaxed, and her eyes fell on the abdomen of her, which began to emerge.

Melinda wore a white T-shirt today and didn't cover her belly deliberately.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. I don't have time to waste with you here."

Melinda did not show a kind attitude to Emily. At the same time, in the crowded shopping mall, people looked at them curiously from time to time.

Emily wasn't surprised at all about Melinda's refusal, and she had even expected this to happen.

"We'd better find a place to sit. You are pregnant now, aren't you?"

The smile on Emily's face made Melinda feel sick. She held her stomach tightly and looked around, then she said calmly, "Let's go to the coffee shop upstairs."

As people came and went, Emily didn't dare to do anything here. Melinda told herself like this and she was careful not to leave her back to Emily.

Emily shrugged and took the lead to go to the coffee shop, followed by Melinda. They ordered nothing but sat down.

"I heard that you had pretended to have an affair with Victor in order to get rid of Kent." As soon as she sat down, Emily said maliciously. It was a very simple thing, but in her eyes, it was like Melinda was a fickle woman.

Suddenly, Melinda laughed out angrily. Before she took her seat, she felt there was nothing to say between her and Emily.

"If you come to me just to tell me these things, then you may be disappointed,"

Melinda said. She didn't care about the mocking remarks of Emily at all, but pregnant women were easy to have mood swings. Melinda had to admit that she was still a little angry.

"I come to you for telling you something you don't know," said Emily, full of confidence. Looking at the impatient eyes of Melinda, she said slowly, "If I'm not wrong, the ex-wife of Victor was also there that day."

Melinda's face turned solemn. She had a feeling that Emily was investigating her. Then Emily looked at her with mockery.

"Do you really think that there is such a coincidence in the world? Kent asked you out for dinner and you took Victor and met his ex-wife?"

Melinda didn't find anything strange at first, but she felt something unusual after listening to what Emily said.

First of all, according to her understanding of Victor's ex-wife, that restaurant did not look like a place she would go at all.
