The most obvious proof of this was that Melinda was getting thinner. And the words that he was worried that she would be harmed at home was exactly referring to Jerry.
Everyone put down their bowls and chopsticks, except Jerry. He continued to eat as if nothing had happened, as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
To be honest, he was very satisfied with the series of reactions after he moved into the Gu family. Seeing that they panicked before he did anything, Jerry was very pleased.
Alston looked stern. He often had a stern face, which made one feel harsh, and it was impossible not to feel a little frightened now.
Clenching her body a little bit, Yulia lowered her head to avoid being noticed by others. Looking at Jonas, Melinda was confused. In fact, Jonas didn't discuss this with her at all.
Nelson still didn't say anything. Being silent for a while, Alston ignored his words, as if nothing had happened.
Queena instantly stood up from her seat and said in disapproval, "Jonas, this is your home, and you are not the person who should leave."
"Mommy, this is Gu family," Jonas said with a smile. This was just the Gu family, not his family.
His home would be good as long as he had Linda. Unlike the Gu's mansion, it was oppressive and strange. Hearing this, Melinda held his hand tightly, as if to console him or tell him that she was here.
"Even so, you are not the ones who should leave,"
Queena said. Her eyes fell on Jerry, as if reminding everyone that who should leave in the room.
As if knowing nothing, Jerry put down his bowl and chopsticks, and said to Alston, "Dad, I'm full. Don't worry about the case you gave me, I'll handle it well."
He said that provocatively. Instead of leaving, he would gain a higher position in the family.
Without saying anything more, Jonas took Melinda's hand and left.
Bewildered, Melinda left with Jonas. His leaving was simple, and he just brought her alone. He lived in an apartment near the company, which was clean and tidy. There was a servant there. It seemed that Jonas had prepared it in advance.
"Jonas, are we just moving out like this?" Melinda was still in a daze. Not long ago, she had a meal at the table.
"Yes,"
Jonas said. He led Melinda to the dining room, where the lunch was served and the medicinal congee was specifically prepared for her.
Every doctor who had checked up on Melinda would think that she was too weak. Since Jonas had a high IQ, he not only used it on the business, but also used it on developing her into a fit woman.
"I don't think it's a good idea,"
Melinda said in confusion. She didn't want to see Jonas get into a fight with Alston. Even though she was on guard against Jerry, she didn't think that he was stupid enough to hurt her at home.
But Jonas didn't think so. For him, nothing was more important than Melinda and the unborn baby.
The Gu's mansion was a dangerous place with Jerry. He couldn't let Melinda stay there all the time.
"It's okay, don't worry."
Nelson knew what kind of person Jerry was, so did Alston. And Nelson also knew that it was impossible for Jerry and him to live in peace. Rather than pretending to get along with each other, it was better to break up the face at the beginning, which could be considered as a clear stand in the relationship.
Although Jonas said that it was fine, Melinda was still very worried.
The current situation was already bad for Jonas. He had been at odds with Alston, which made him more embarrassed now?
"Jonas, let's go back. I'm fine at home. Look at me, I'm fine these days? Jerry doesn't dare to do anything to me,"
Melinda advised, blinking her big eyes innocently. Looking at Melinda, Jonas had a palpitation and he could not help but plant a kiss on her lips, and in the end deepened the kiss somewhat discontentedly.
After resistance at first, Melinda was immersed in the romantic atmosphere created by Jonas. Finally, she leaned on him breathlessly.
"This is our home," Jonas said, but clearly rejected the proposal of Melinda returning to the Gu's mansion.
"But mom and grandpa are there." Melinda still didn't want to give up. The biggest reason why Jonas moved out from the Gu's mansion was because of her, which indicated that he had yielded in this silent battle.
It must be very hard for him.
"Don't worry. Mom can handle this. As for Grandpa, you don't need to worry about that old fox."
Nelson was described as a cunning old fox. Hearing this, the corners of Melinda's eyes were involuntarily twitching. She felt that Jonas had the temperament of a rebellious teenager.
