Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 47

Knowing that Melinda wasn't actually pregnant, Jonas couldn't help but feel upset. Even so, he did his best not to show it. Soon after, the two went back home.

Melinda had always known that Nelson was looking forward to have a great-grandchild. Because of this, she knew that he would be disappointed to find out that she was not pregnant. Still, she had to break the news to him.

Although Nelson was in a low mood, he still put on smile. "It doesn't matter. You are still young! Don't worry, you have plenty of time to have kids," he comforted.

"I'm really sorry, Grandpa," Melinda mumbled.

Guilt washed over her at that moment—not because she failed to get pregnant, but because she actually didn't want to have another child with Jonas. It was such a complicated feeling in her heart.

"Silly girl. It's not your fault at all. The doctor said that you are just probably exerting yourself too much. From now on, just take good care of yourself and I'm sure you'll get pregnant in no time."

Nelson mistook Melinda's sadness, thinking that she was upset because she couldn't get pregnant. Unconsciously, Melinda bit her lower lip. Sometimes she thought maybe it wouldn't be so bad to have children just so that she could make Nelson happy. However, she did not want to raise children in a home that had a broken family.

Melinda was certain that her relationship with Jonas would be over sooner or later.

The news of Melinda's false pregnancy made some happy while others sad. A lot of people were highly aware of the significance of her pregnancy in this family.

Needless to say, Nelson thought highly of her, and Jonas had taken good care of her recently.

Yulia was happy that Melinda didn't get pregnant. Otherwise, she would be really worried as she wouldn't know how she should proceed.

After the two returned to their villa, Melinda turned on her computer and began to type on the keyboard. There was a lot of inspiration and ideas flooding through her mind, and she didn't want to miss it.

Jonas walked in on her, seeing her busily typing away. "Are you writing again?" he asked.

It was not the first time that Jonas had seen such a situation, but it was the first time that he asked. There was no aversion in his tone unlike in the past. Slowly but surely, he had accepted a lot of things about Melinda.

"Yes. I've had a lot of free time on my hands recently."

Yulia's fake kindness ruined everything, and since the last draft was lost, she was not in the mood for writing for a few days. Today, however, she was in the mood to get her writing done.

It was such a thrill for her to write. Whenever she wrote a sentence she liked, she couldn't help but sit back and smile to herself, admiring her work.

"What are you writing right now?"

Jonas seldom read novels, and mostly read classics and prose. Melinda looked up at him with a subtle expression in her eyes, and finally said helplessly, "I don't think you'd be interested in this."

Love stories were definitely not his cup of tea. Melinda knew that he only read those books with complicated theories and difficult vocabulary and was aware that it was a bit boring for him to read love stories.

Jonas shrugged it off and went to work at the study. It was a nice and quiet moment in their villa.

As Melinda was writing, a piece of news popped up in her laptop. It was a report about Emily. Seeing this, Melinda clicked on it out of instinct.

Emily was filming a new movie recently. It starred a bunch of big names and was getting a lot of hype. For some time now, Melinda had been wondering how Emily could've endured without seeing Jonas, and it was not until she read the article that she found out that Emily had in fact been in F City.

As Melinda continued to read the article, she found out that Emily was apparently known for wearing white and dainty dresses. The thought that Melinda also had many dresses similar to what Emily wore made her uncomfortable.

'Well, looks like I'm never going to wear those dresses again,' Melinda thought in annoyance. In truth, it actually suited Melinda more than it did on Emily. With a sigh, Melinda closed the web page and went back to her writing.

Meanwhile, Emily was so anxious, and couldn't wait to return back to A City. Her performance wasn't that good, and consequently slowed down the shooting process. If only Emily wasn't as famous as she was, the director would have scolded her right there and then.

It would difficult to against someone like her, especially since she had a lot of fans that were arrogant and unreasonable.

Fortunately, the shooting had taken place in a fairly remote place where had a weak signal. It was easy for Emily to calm herself down since she couldn't get a lot of news and information from the outside.

Every now and then, Melinda would go out to refresh her mind and find more inspiration. Whenever Jonas had the time, he would go and accompany her. The sight of them together gave the impression that they were a nice, young couple that got along really well.

"Wow, it's so rare to see you sitting at the table,"

Yulia said in a sarcastic tone as Melinda sat down for dinner. Recently, Melinda often went out and seldom had her meals at home. Melinda didn't pay attention to Yulia's snide comment—after all, what Yulia said was a fact.

In contrast, Melinda's silence made Yulia feel even more annoyed. 'How dare she ignore me like that!' she thought.

"Mellie, did you have a good day today?"

Nelson asked with a smile. Melinda and Nelson were sharing interesting things that they met today, and also invited Jonas to chat with them. Jonas was not a good listener. He just talked a lot with "uh" or something else. But the way they got along with each other still made Yulia jealous.

'They're my family! Why is everyone so fond of her anyway?' Yulia thought angrily.

'This is my home and yet I feel like an outsider. Do they ever care about me at all?' There was so much hate and bitterness brewing in Yulia's heart.

"Emily will be back soon, Melinda," Yulia chimed in. "I wouldn't be so laid-back if I were you."
