The Gu's mansion was in chaos. Jonas carried Queena to the hospital. Nelson sighed while asking people to drive Emily and Jerry out.
When he looked at Jerry, his eyes were very complicated.
Even though Jerry's words were very extreme, he did not say anything wrong. He was the child of the Gu family, and this family belonged to him.
What's more, it was his disappointing son who made all these tragedies.
Nelson sighed deeply again. He turned around and saw that Melinda was still sitting on the sofa like a puppet.
"Kid, I am sorry to let you witness all these jokes." Nelson came to the side of Melinda and said. His sad face made Melinda very distressed.
There were not many happy things in Nelson's life. Most of the time, he was serious. Today, he finally had a happy moment, but it turned out to be such a mess.
The decoration of the living room was romantic and luxurious, and the fragrance of champagne roses was still filled with the nose, but everything that had been planned was destroyed.
Jonas's ring was ready, and even hidden in a place next to Melinda. The celebration cake in the kitchen had been prepared beforehand, and there was no chance for it to show up at this moment.
All of a sudden, this had turned into a joke.
Thinking of Jonas's anxious look, and Queena's sudden faint, Melinda felt her heart constricted and a pain came from her lower abdomen.
"Grandpa, everything will be fine. Don't worry too much," Melinda comforted him. Vern stood still and watched the whole process. He was deeply shocked by all these things.
"Ah, I'm fine. It's just that I feel sad for Jonas," Nelson said, he had seen so many things in his life, it was impossible for him to be easily knocked down.
On the contrary, Jonas, the carefully planned proposal was gone. His mother was being sent to the hospital for rescue. Everyone who knew him well knew that he would never let off Emily and Jerry easily.
"Gavin, take grandpa to the bedroom for a rest," Melinda said to Gavin. Nelson didn't refuse. He nodded, looked at everything in the living room and sighed deeply.
"Daughter, let's go home."
Vern didn't say anything except a question from the beginning to the end. Now there were only the father and the daughter left in the living room. Melinda looked a little pale.
What had happened just now was too shocking for her, but the actions of Jerry and the faint of Queena still frightened her. The baby in her belly was intuitively felt.
The fetus was alerted. Due to the uncomfortable abdomen, Melinda knew that she had hurt the fetus. Therefore, she didn't move when Jonas had left.
Since it had been a while since the two got along well with each other, it was inevitable for him to worry about her. But now, his mother had to be sent to the hospital.
So, before leaving, he asked Vern to take good care of Melinda.
"Dad, I'm a little worried about Auntie Yao's safety."
Queena had always been healthy, and it was even more frightening for her to suddenly faint. Melinda's browns wrinkled together, her eyes lifeless, full of worry.
"You'd better take care of yourself first." Looking at Melinda, Vern said helplessly. It could not be said that he had no feelings for the Gu family, but this was a family matter of Gu family. He'd better not ask much about it.
Looking at his daughter's pale and stubborn face, Vern felt a sense of helplessness. He went to the sofa, stretched out his hand and said jokingly, "I'm old now. I can't carry you, but I can hold you."
His hands were not as delicate as they were when he was young as time went by. Melinda's eyes became red. She sniffed and sobbed, "Who says you're old? It's me who gain weight because of eating and eating. But it doesn't matter. You can carry the baby when the baby is born."
"Well, can we go home now, the baby's Mommy?" Seeing how sentimental Melinda was, Vern did not know whether to cry or to laugh. He thought his child was somewhat innocent.
Melinda didn't dare to neglect her baby. Obviously, the Gu's mansion wasn't fit for a rest. There was nothing she could do to help, and she would only make people busier.
She didn't leave the Gu's mansion with Vern until she felt better.
Vern had been picked up by Jonas. Now the two of them left, Melinda asked Gavin to arrange a driver to send them off. Vern took Melinda directly to his home.
"The baby in your womb got hurt today. How about going to the hospital for a check-up?"
The father and the daughter both sat in the back seats. Melinda leaned on her father as if she was a kid, with hands on her belly. It was really a wonderful feeling for the three generations to be together.
"It's okay. The baby did not do anything."
Melinda stroked her belly with her hands. She had suffered a lot to have this baby after going through so many hardships. She had learned the secret that Jonas had hidden from her since she had been pregnant.
It was difficult for her to conceive, so it was hard for her to be pregnant. It was better to have a good rest quietly, or it would be easy to affect the fetus.
"We'd better go to the hospital." Thinking of Melinda's sullen face, Vern was still a little worried, and his worried look made Melinda laugh.
