Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 263

"Don't worry. I won't let Emily play the leading role," Jonas said affirmatively. He would only drive Emily to the corner, and there was no reason to pave the way for her.

At the thought of Emily, he felt much angrier. How dare she speak out words like that? She was so good at flattering herself.

With his understanding of the entertainment circle, Jonas thought about the same thing as Melinda. Maybe Emily was able to do that by all means.

"You look so haggard because of it these two days?" asked Jonas, feeling heartbroken, especially after he saw the dark circles under Melinda's eyes.

Melinda smiled sheepishly, and did not deny it. She was indeed a very worried person.

Besides, she didn't want to bother Jonas with such trifles. If he knew what was on Melinda's mind, maybe he would be angry for a while secretly.

"Don't worry. I will take care of it. You should have a good rest after drinking the milk." Seeing the dark circles around her eyes, Jonas felt sad. He reached out his hand and touched the temperature of milk, but found that it was cold. Then he voluntarily made a new cup for her.

Looking at the hustle and bustle of Jonas, Melinda felt relieved for the first time.

Maybe that was not bad.

She was lost in her mind while Jonas was very careful. Then he brought the milk to her gently and then pushed her to sleep.

Lying on the bed, Melinda closed her eyes and smelled the familiar smell of Jonas. He had been protecting her all the time. She was no longer alone.

Not long after, Jonas heard her shallow breath from the bed.

Melinda hadn't slept at all and she had been worried all day. She was already exhausted. With a wry smile on the corner of his mouth and a touch of bitterness in his heart, he wondered what he could do to make her completely put down her guard.

Jonas stayed with her in the room for a long time, leaving a night light for Melinda. Then he took a blanket from the cabinet and went to the living room.

Although the room was soundproof, he still went to the balcony when he made the call.

The director was woken up by a phone call while he was sleeping soundly. When he saw the caller ID, his face suddenly changed.

"Mr. Gu, what can I do for you?" His voice indicated that he was drunk. Frowning, Jonas knew that many things in the entertainment circle were caused by drinking.

Emily also used such means, which he found when investigating her dirty news. Thinking of Melinda's worries, he believed that it was totally reasonable.

"Are you busy now?" His tone was very calm, but for some reason, it made people feel nervous. The director didn't know the purpose of this call and didn't know how to answer it.

"The news of the TV series has gone out. They are selecting the right actor and actress,"

the director said. It made Jonas feel that he was still busy with his time in TV series, so he should be no problem with it. However, he did not know that when Jonas heard that he was drinking like this because of the TV series, he felt that something bad was happening.

He didn't mind such things happening, which happened in this circle all the time, but if they happened in front of Melinda, it would be a different story.

"It's troublesome to select roles. You must have been tired lately." Jonas didn't go straight to the point, but asked in a calm tone. The sudden concern made Elmer confused.

Jonas didn't seem to be so considerate. Was there something he didn't know, or was there something Melinda said?

When he thought of the call from Melinda last night, Elmer got angry again. As a layman, she always came here and judged him.

"It's alright. Almost all the people have been decided. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Gu," Elmer answered immediately.

Jonas touched the handrail with his fingers and then cut to the chase, "Have been decided? Where is the leading actress?"

He had been drinking tonight and the members had been decided? Inevitably, Jonas became more vigilant. Unaware of the situation, Elmer sneered in his heart, 'Sure enough, Melinda said something.'

He was also very angry. Where did his reputation rank go? He didn't expect to be questioned again and again by an outsider. Even if he agreed, she still mentioned it to Jonas.

"Mr. Gu and Miss. Mo, you two are really interesting. You both call me to ask about this matter. Do you all think I'm bad at choosing the protagonists and I will choose them randomly?"

Elmer admitted that he was a common person and would accept some hidden rules. But when it came to work, he had his own attitude.

He would never allow anything bad to happen to his work. His attitude towards Emily was the same as before. He didn't want to ruin his work because of a vase.

Jonas knew well about the director's temper. He figured it out from the director's words that there must be some misunderstanding.

Anyone who had ever been questioned in this way in a professional field would probably be furious. Elmer didn't dare to vent his anger on him. However, what he said indicated that he was very angry now.
