He had planned to ask Melinda to wait for him in the same place, but he thought it would be better to avoid arousing suspicion when he thought that the address was the studio of Jessica.
After saying yes, Melinda went back to the recording studio and told Jessica about that Jonas was going to pick her up.
"I'm familiar with that coffee shop, and I don't have anything else to do now. Let me go to accompany you." Upon hearing this, Jessica immediately stopped her work. Feeling a little embarrassed, Melinda thought she could do it alone.
"It's okay." Jessica insisted on accompanying her. Melinda had no choice but to let her go to the coffee shop with her. Jessica was really familiar with this place. Most people would be excited to see stars.
But when they saw Jessica, they greeted her as if they were friends.
"You'd better not drink milk since you're pregnant. Try fruit milk. It tastes good," Jessica said to Melinda. She could feel her care from the details again.
When Melinda was with her, she had a strange sense of security. Without any other opinions, she asked Jessica to order it.
There were not many people in the coffee shop at this time. The two of them chose a relatively remote corner to sit down. Probably because of Stacy, the topic between the two of them was always carefully avoided these sensitive people.
Most of the time, Jessica would tell Melinda some interesting stories in the entertainment circle or ask Melinda about her knowledge in literature. When Jonas came over, he saw the two people talking and laughing happily.
"Let's go home." Holding Melinda's hand, Jonas was about to leave. It was totally different from what he had been doing all the time, which made Melinda feel strange. But when she saw the bad look on Jonas's face, she didn't dare to say anything more. She made a gesture to Jessica and left.
"Didn't I tell you to stay away from her?" When the two got in the car, Jonas couldn't help saying that. Obviously, he was a little angry, but he carefully fastened the seat belt for Melinda.
"I know what you are worried about. I know that Jessica and Stacy are good friends, but they are different."
Melinda was dissatisfied that Jonas was prejudiced against Jessica. Having spent so much time with Jessica, she felt that she was a worthy friend.
She couldn't lose such a friend because of Stacy.
Hearing this, Jonas looked at Melinda helplessly and said nothing more. But he sighed in his heart, 'If I work harder, I can better protect her.'
Because of this, the two of them went back home without saying a word all the way. Queena was also frightened by Melinda's missing. Seeing that she came back safely, she couldn't help but nag.
"You are such a naughty kid. You didn't even tell me when you went out. Mommy was almost scared to death by you," Queena said, covering her chest. She was frightened when she saw the pale face of Jonas at that time.
Fortunately, Melinda was fine, or she really didn't know how to face her son.
"Mommy, I'm sorry," Melinda said. At that time, she was curious and wanted to go out for a walk, but she forgot to tell her family.
"It's fine since you come back safely. You should know that you are pregnant now. You can't be so willful in the future,"
Queena warned. Melinda knew it was her fault today, so she answered obediently. On the contrary, Jonas stood there with a long face, which was very frightening.
It was difficult for Queena not to notice where such a powerful person stood. She looked at Melinda in confusion and saw a bitter smile on her face.
Although she was confused, she also felt that it was their own business and she would not interfere.
Being intimidated by Jonas's behavior, Melinda became a coward and kept holding his hand, trying to please him.
"Jon, are you angry?"
Although Melinda didn't think she was wrong, she was deeply aware that she had to put on a posture of apologizing.
"You'd better keep away from Jessica," said Jonas coldly, and returned to silence.
"That's because you don't know her well. She is a good girl, really," Melinda said as she looked at Jonas. She had always felt that she didn't have many friends.
It was rare for her to have the intention to make friends with someone. But she really wanted to make friends with Jessica. And she was also sad that Jessica was Stacy's best friend. Although Stacy and she were not in a seriously bad relationship, it was still an extravagant hope for the two of them to get along well with each other.
"Do you want me to know other women?" Hearing that, Jonas frowned more tightly. Even though Melinda almost shed tears when Jonas got the wrong point, she still shook her head.
Although she believed in Jonas's love to her, she always lacked confidence in this love.
"Don't walk around for the next few days. This is the punishment for your running around today," Jonas said to Melinda. Everyone present heard what he said.
