"Did you find someone to catch Linda's father?" The employees outside couldn't help but murmur to themselves when they saw the sullen expression on Jonas's face.
Did the director offend the CEO? There would be a good show to watch.
"What?" Jerry was not surprised at all that Jonas came to him at once, but he didn't admit it or deny it. He just sat in his seat indifferently.
"Jerry, I did not trouble you. You'd better behave yourself and don't mess with me. Hand over Linda's father as soon as possible." Seeing that, Jonas was much surer that the man was in Jerry's hand.
For the sake of his father, he didn't want to do anything bad to Jerry, but Jerry's way of doing things was so hateful that he dared to hurt Linda's father.
"Yes, I have him."
Jerry rotated his right hand with a pen, and tapped his left hand gently on the table, as if provoking something.
He stared straight at Jonas without fear of the coldness in his eyes. Now he was no longer the Jerry he used to be. He had the support of Wang family, and Jonas was no match for him since Jonas had not stabilized his position in the Soaring Group.
"Let him go," Jonas said in a tough tone, but he had a hunch that Jerry wouldn't let him go so easily. He was wondering what conditions Jerry would make.
In Jonas's mind, he couldn't help recalling what Jerry had said to Stacy when he had just entered the office.
"I can let go of him. The condition is very simple. Melinda has to apologize to Stacy in person on behalf of your mother." The smile at the corners of Jerry's mouth became wider and wider.
This step was very important. As long as Melinda apologized, his position in the Gu family would quietly change, and it was also a message to David that his heart was in the Wang family.
Only in this way could David spare no effort to help him.
"Apologize? To Stacy?" He loved and doted on Melinda. He didn't want her to suffer any grievance. How could he allow her to apologize to a person like Stacy?
Noticing the disdain in Jonas's eyes, Jerry was a little unhappy. Jonas was as arrogant as ever. He was now the son-in-law of the Wang family, but Jonas still had such an attitude.
"I don't mind if that old woman Queena comes by herself." Jerry shrugged and said. When he thought of the fact that Stacy was driven out by Gu family when she went to the Gu family, he was very angry.
No matter he liked Stacy or not, she was his woman. If she was bullied, it meant that he was humiliated.
"You are becoming more and more naive," said Jonas. He also felt that there was no need to continue the negotiation. Jerry was good at taking advantage of others as he still behaved well. So he turned around and left directly.
He thought that as long as he knew that it was Jerry who had done this, it wouldn't be too difficult to find the place where he had locked Vern up. He had a way to save his father-in-law, not to let his mother or wife be humiliated.
Stacy and Jerry were the same kind of people. If Melinda apologized, she would definitely be humiliated and even bullied.
Although Linda was gentle, she was not a tough woman. It was easy for her to hurt herself and her child.
The more Jonas thought about it, the more headache he felt. When he returned to his office, he saw the eager eyes of Ted asking about the progress of the matter.
"He won't let him go. You should follow this line and find someone to rescue him as soon as possible," said Jonas to Ted.
However, Ted began to worry. He felt that it was not that easy to complete this matter. Jerry was a scheming man. He might have guessed that they would investigate him.
Then there would be another pile of smoke bombs.
But this was the only way at present. After saying goodbye to Jonas, Ted went to the place where his men stayed and continued to cooperate with the investigation.
Although the conversation between Jonas and Jerry was not told to anyone, Melinda still got the news from Jessica.
Stacy deliberately revealed the news to Jessica in order to let Melinda know.
"Stacy, do you know it's against the law?" Jessica didn't expect that Stacy and Jerry would control Melinda's father and threaten Melinda to apologize to her. She felt that her friend had become a stranger to her.
Maybe one day, Stacy would point the knife at her for a man called Jerry.
"Jessica, they've been threatening us. I have no choice. Besides, I've been insulted. Shouldn't you be on my side?" Stacy looked at her friend and said disappointedly, feeling that she had changed.
Jessica felt depressed and didn't know how to vent her anger.
