Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness novel Chapter 70

"Melinda, don't try to slander me," Yulia growled.

"Yulia, can't we get along well?"

Melinda asked, ignoring Yulia's words. Yulia was always causing trouble and Melinda didn't bother listening to her.

Melinda had tolerated a lot of humiliation and pain for Jonas. But she wasn't ready to endure it anymore. She wanted to teach a lesson to everyone who was trying to rub her the wrong way.

"Get along well?" Yulia asked, cackling like a maniac.

"Are you fucking kidding me? Melinda, you can't be my brother's wife forever. I don't have to get along with you."

Yulia believed that Jonas despised Melinda and he was pretending to get along with her because of Nelson. Nelson was already old and wouldn't be around for too long. With him gone, Melinda's life would be pitiful as Jonas would chuck her out of the house.

"Yulia, that's enough."

Melinda turned around angrily and was about to leave. But she bumped heavily into Yulia's arm, causing her phone to fall on the carpet.

"Your phone."

Melinda picked up the phone and handed it to Yulia, while her fingers were firmly clasping it. She had an identical phone in her hand.

Yulia pulled the phone angrily. The screen was blank and she couldn't turn it on.

"Damn it, how did it break?"

"Your phone is too old. It's time to buy a new one," Melinda said guiltily.

That was not Yulia's phone because Melinda had intentionally switched phones. She had taken Yulia's phone and replaced it with an old, damaged one.

However, Yulia was gullible. She thought that her phone was broken for real. Melinda breathed a sigh of relief and left.

Melinda had flicked Yulia's phone to find out her plans. Although she could decipher Yulia's password, she had overestimated the quality of her phone.

The phone had collided with the furniture, causing the screen to shatter. Melinda couldn't turn it on.

Fortunately, the damage wasn't serious. Melinda went to the store to repair it. The phone was fixed in no time and Melinda immediately unlocked the phone. As expected, the password was Yulia's date of birth.

Melinda was aware that Yulia leaked information about her whereabouts to others. So she quickly opened her WeChat.

Yulia had added many rich society gals in her WeChat and it was flooding with messages. As she scrolled down the contact list, a particular picture caught her attention.

It was a portrait of a woman and Melinda quickly recognized that it was Emily. Her eyes widened with shock when she saw the chat records.

"What the hell!"

Melinda's mouth twitched with anger. She scrolled down and read the entire conversation. All her doubts were cleared as she understood what was going on.

Yulia and Emily had worked together to fool Jonas. Melinda felt stupid for underestimating Yulia.

She quickly noted Emily's WeChat number and used Yulia's identity to buy a new number. She created a new WeChat ID with the number and quickly added Emily.

Melinda instantly got a notification that Emily had accepted her request.

"What happened to your previous account?" Emily texted.

"My brother knows my previous account. It will be easy for him to find out. Moreover, my phone broke this morning, so I got a new one. Contact me on this number."

Melinda's expert fingers typed the message in an instant as a smile tugged at the corners of her lips. The man who had repaired the phone looked at Melinda and glanced at the air conditioner as he felt the temperature had dropped.

"Miss, is anything wrong with the phone?" he asked worriedly.

"No, thank you, sir."

She nodded and left the store. Melinda and Jonas had planned to have dinner at the fish farm tonight but Yulia had informed Emily about it. Melinda knew that Emily would also come there and ruin their dinner.

So she quickly called Jonas.

"Jonas, I don't want to go to the fish farm tonight. Do you mind changing the place?" Melinda asked seductively.

She seldom made any request, so Jonas immediately agreed without questioning her.

"William told me about a good restaurant. We can go there."

"That's awesome. William is omnipotent and I think it's time for you to give him a raise." Melinda chuckled, oblivious to what Jonas was about to do.

Jonas grudgingly deducted William's bonus. William felt dejected because his bonus was higher than his salary.

He didn't know what he had done wrong and didn't dare to ask Jonas about it. So he promised to work harder and impress Jonas to get a hike.
