"Can you help me now?" Emily looked at Jerry and said. Although her tone was mild, she was very proud of Jerry's scruple.
However, Emily did not notice the vicious look in Jerry's eyes. He was a man who would do anything to achieve his goal. Emily's threat really made him want to get rid of this person.
But it was not the right time.
"I can't break my plan now," Jerry finally compromised. He wanted Emily to know that he had his own plan, and there was not much difference between their goals.
If she really wanted to take revenge, she wouldn't ruin it.
"I know, so I won't make you too embarrassed. If necessary, you can just help me out," said Emily. Now the most important thing for her was to gain a firm foothold and find a patron, because the person who had bailed her out before might not be reliable.
But everything would be different with the help of Jerry.
"Okay. But if you let Stacy know about this, we will all be screwed." A hint of anger appeared in Jerry's eyes. He thought, 'Emily is really a tough woman to deal with. No wonder she took advantage of Jonas for so many times.'
"I know what I am doing." Emily was angry about being completely warned by Jerry, and said it stubbornly. In order to reach the goal, Emily did not continue to make things difficult for Jerry. There was nothing to talk about between the two, and when Stacy called Jerry, he left.
Ted's investigation done at a very fast speed. Not long after, a message was sent to Jonas. It turned out that Jerry indeed be with Stacy, and Stacy relied on him a lot.
David loved his daughter very much. If his daughter liked Jerry, he would of course help him.
With the help of David's position in A City, Jerry really could bring a lot of benefits to Soaring Group.
He seemed to understand why his father did this.
But, didn't Jerry know that maybe Alston was taking advantage of the relationship between him and David?
Or, it could be said that this value was deliberately released by Jerry in order to let Alston see.
All of a sudden, Jonas felt himself trapped in another trap and could not get out.
Sitting quietly beside, Melinda was nervous to see his reactions, sometimes he frowned and sometimes relaxed brows.
"Jonas, what are you thinking about?" Seeing that Jonas finally came out of his meditation, Melinda could not help but ask.
Was it difficult for him to understand? Why did he have to think for such a long time?
Today, wearing a pink housecoat, Melinda was clinging to Jonas as if she were a little pig.
The moment Jonas saw Melinda, all of his worries disappeared.
"It's just that I haven't figured out some things yet," Jonas said lightly, but it was sure that Jerry came with a purpose, and the simple and crude thing was to take revenge.
At the thought of his father's words that he wanted to make up for his mistakes, Jonas was confused. His father was just pretending to be sorry for his mistake in front of Jerry?
"What is it that you don't understand? Let me give you an analysis."
Since her father gave her advice and she got such an important news, Melinda thought that she had a quick mind.
Hearing this, Jonas couldn't help laughing out. Looking at him, Melinda seemed sullen, clutched the collar of his shirt and said ferociously, "Jonas, what do you mean? !"
"Nothing. I believe that you're the smartest woman in the world, Linda," said Jonas, not minding Melinda's violent behavior at all. He even worried that he would hurt her and cooperate with her behavior.
Being a little discouraged, Melinda stopped what she was doing and began to doubt herself. Finally, she gave up, saying, "I know I'm useless, but I hope you don't hide anything from me."
This was the last request that Melinda made to Jonas.
In fact, Melinda lacked a sense of security, especially when Jonas didn't want her to worry about many things. She would feel that he didn't trust her.
The woman who was still alive and kicking suddenly looked pale. Jonas couldn't help frowning, thinking that he was no longer able to keep up with pregnant women.
"Don't think too much," Jonas said with his head knocked on Melinda's forehead. Then he rested his chin on Melinda's shoulder and voiced out his guess.
"Why do I think that two people are making use of each other? Or nothing ventured, nothing gained?" Melinda said while fiddling with her hair. Hearing this, Jonas felt that it seemed to make sense.
His father knew that Jerry approached him with a purpose, but he still chose to make use of Jerry. This was simply a gamble.
