Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 278

When they came back, the happiest person was not Nelson or Queena, but was Ted. He looked at Jonas with an aggrieved face and said in a voice like a dissatisfied housewife that he was finally back.

The moment Melinda saw Ted, she suddenly felt that what he said on the phone was not a big deal. They played not long ago, but Ted was clearly emaciated.

Jonas was also surprised. After all, Jonas was the one who promoted Ted and he knew Ted was capable. But there was only one reason to make Ted look like this: Ted didn't really believe in his abilities.

Ted had always regarded Jonas as his idol and had been learning from him. He deeply felt that he did not have the ability as Jonas, so it was inevitable for him to think more carefully when doing things.

His work efficiency was nothing comparable to that of himself when Jonas was here.

"There are still a lot of chances for you in the future. Soon you can successfully lose weight," said Jonas smilingly, as he patted on Ted's shoulder kindly.

Hearing this, Ted' face turned dark. Seeing this, Melinda couldn't help smiling. But there was no sign of joking on Jonas's face.

He also realized that he was too busy and had little time to accompany Melinda, so he felt it necessary for him to have such a trip.

Ted arranged a driver to send Melinda back to the Gu's mansion, while Jonas was taken by him to deal with the business in the company.

Nelson saw Melinda go back home and directly asked her why she didn't play for more time, but he was gratified to see she became better.

"I have been asking for leave these days. It's time to go back to work,"

Melinda consoled Nelson. She counted the time she had been working recently and assumed that it might be someone else's rest time.

Nelson had no objection to her career. He nodded in agreement. "It's not good to keep this going."

Taking a look at Melinda, Nelson touched her and flinched back the words that he was about to encourage Melinda to start her own business.

Since she hadn't been to work for a long time, Melinda felt herself a little lazy. The next morning, it was Jonas who woke her up. She rubbed her eyes, and just wanted to go back to her comfortable bed.

"You'd better stay at home and take care of yourself. I can make money to support our family." Jonas pinched her nose, while Melinda lazily opened one eye and squinted at him.

After a long struggle in mind, Melinda finally got up and lay in bed. After having breakfast in a hurry, she asked Jonas to drive her to the company.

"Mr. Cheng, good morning!" It was only after Melinda clocked in that she entered the company and saw Victor standing in front of her. In the past, she would have avoided him if she wanted to avoid arousing suspicion. But today, she greeted him with a splendid smile.

Melinda's smile dazzled Victor. He thought that he might have mistaken. He looked around and saw a lot of colleagues, and many of them were looking at the two of them.

"Melinda."

Victor was still surprised, but he still greeted her. Melinda smiled and then turned into the elevator.

The elevator should be very crowded at this time. However, other employees were just standing outside and watching the scene that Victor and Melinda were in the elevator.

Noticing that, Victor felt a little embarrassed. At the same time, Melinda looked at the people outside the elevator with a smile, she reminded, "The elevator has arrived. Don't you go upstairs?"

Being reminded like this, the crowd felt a little embarrassed. They pushed each other into the elevator. The others pretended to have other things to run to the front desk.

The atmosphere in the elevator was somewhat dull, and everyone felt very uncomfortable. Only Melinda felt as comfortable as a fish in water.

She wore a pinkish purple dress, looking young. Her hair spread over her two sides, wearing exquisite earrings, and matched the necklace around her neck. It looked simple, but noble.

It was inevitable that those people looked at her with a little envy. This set of jewelry also included bracelets. Anyone who was wise immediately recognized that it was the latest and limited edition of A brand.

One might be unable to afford it even if she had money. Only the one who had a high status was able to buy it.

"Mr. Cheng, when are you free today? I will go to you for cancel the vacation later." After walking out of the elevator, Melinda asked Victor. She was not in good mental condition at that time, and she had just had a miscarriage. So she only asked for leave, without telling him when she would come back.

That was because Melinda was familiar with Victor, or it was because of Jonas. Otherwise, she must have been fired by the company.

However, her way of working still aroused gossip. When others asked for a leave, they would have to work for a long time in advance. Only she could ask for a leave at anytime and anywhere.

"No need. I will let my secretary handle it," Victor said and Melinda nodded. She then walked to her department.

The colleagues were surprised to see Melinda. Many of them even thought she had resigned, so many things were put on her desk.

The neat table was now in a mess. Even the chair was not spared.
