Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 290

The more Alston was satisfied with Jerry, the more disappointed he was with Jonas. Queena had contacted Jerry before, and she knew him well. Now seeing him so humble, she felt something was wrong.

"Linda, let's go back."

No one said a word. Jonas walked upstairs to the bedroom with his arm around Melinda's waist. If he didn't get along well with his father in the past, he usually went to the small villa where he stayed.

But the situation was different today. Jerry stood there like a tortoise that had taken over a territory, he would give up on the territory if he left at any time.

Jonas was so proud that he wouldn't allow him to do such a thing.

Queena heard this, being afraid that his action would piss off Alston, she explained, "Linda is pregnant. She hasn't had a rest this day. Take her to the bedroom to have a rest."

Melinda immediately pretended to be a little tired. Alston didn't say anything, but Jerry looked thoughtfully at her lower abdomen.

He lurked as a sinister viper, which made her flesh creep and she sped up her pace.

In the end, it was Jonas that followed her steps to leave. They went back to the bedroom upstairs. The moment the door was closed, Melinda breathed a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere just now was really depressing.

She took a look at Jonas and saw the disappointment and indignation on his face. She knew that what his father had done had hurt Jonas's heart.

Melinda held the hand of Jonas, and smiled to his perplexed look.

He said her smile could cure all his pain. The tenderness in her eyes was like a clear spring water to calm his restless heart. Jonas reached out and rubbed Melinda's head.

"I'm fine."

Melinda knew him well. She knew that there was still a huge knot in the heart of Jonas. But she was not clear about the situation now, and what Jonas had done in the living room just now was a little impulsive.

"Jerry... Anyway, he is your father's child. It's natural for him to come back," Melinda said after she hesitated for a while, and when she saw the gloom on Jonas's face again, she knew that he must have thought a lot.

She patted his hands and looked at him with an innocent look in her eyes. She wanted him to hear what she said.

"I was surprised too." The entire family had known about Jerry's identity, but Alston didn't take him back until now. There must be something they didn't know.

"He just doesn't trust me," Jonas said. He was hurt by his father. He had been working hard in the company to root out Aron's power. And over the years, the power in the Soaring Group had been transferred to Jonas and his father.

However, Alston seemed not satisfied with his development. He wanted more.

"Dad and grandpa have handed the company over to you for such a long time, naturally they believe you. Don't deny yourself because of such trifles."

Hearing this, Melinda knew that Jonas was being stubborn. She could not help but persuade him. Jonas turned a deaf ear to her, and he felt very disappointed. After doing so much, it seemed to be a joke for him.

"That's because I'm the only child in Gu family," said Jonas. The reason why Nelson regarded him seriously was that Nelson was displeased by Aron's actions and he liked Melinda.

But now, the appearance of Jerry and his father's attitude made Jonas feel an unprecedented sense of crisis.

He never had such feelings when dealing with Aron.

"You are still a little irritable now, so you don't know the true nature of these things. And your attitude in the living room was very bad, you know?"

The appearance of Jerry infuriated Jonas. Coupled with his attitude, it showed the gap between them. Melinda did not miss the disappointment flashed across the eyes of Alston.

Therefore, she hoped that Jonas could calm down by this time.

"You need to calm down now. Don't lose your temper with father again, okay?"

Melinda said seriously. She followed Jonas upstairs just now in order to remind him of this matter. Seeing Alston's attitude, it was certain that Jerry would go back to the Gu family.

They had to face it sooner or later. They had no idea about it earlier today, so they were a little panicked.

"I'm not angry," Jonas said. His voice was as cold as ice, and the indifference on his face made him look as if nobody should get close to him.

"But you are still upset, aren't you?"

Melinda said in a gentle tone, and her eyes seemed to see through what kind of person Jonas was. Under such eyes, Jonas felt that there was no place for him to hide.

He did feel uncomfortable in his heart. In this family, he had no sense of belonging. His parents were in discord, and they had their own children. He was the most righteous one in the eyes of outsiders, but in fact, he was also the most pathetic one.

Thanks to Nelson's patronage over the years, otherwise, no one would know what Jonas looked like now.
