Forgive My Ex-husband -
Chapter 247 Unconditionally Trust
Knowing that Melinda was still preparing lunch, Jonas did not go to the company directly but stayed at Vern's home to accompany her. The lunch was prepared together by the two. Although Jonas only learned several dishes, he was good at cutting.
Since they had a clear division of work, Jonas thought it was a rare opportunity. After discussion with Vern, he invited Nelson for dinner.
When Nelson saw that the two of them got along well with each other, he was very happy. When he had dinner, he acted like a gourmet and judged each dish highly.
It seemed that Melinda and Jonas had been closer after the cook. Victor was not in the mood to care about the business of the company, and as a result, the staff of the company finally relaxed. Work was too little for Melinda, which made her feel that she was on a paid vacation.
The baby in the womb finally passed the troublesome period. Melinda had a better appetite recently. She ate much more, and she was more plump and energetic.
Such a peaceful life made Melinda feel happy.
But her calmness was doomed to be destroyed. As the child grew up, Melinda began to go shopping in maternal and infant shops like many mothers.
On weekends, she went to the shopping mall nearby her house. Sometimes, her servant would accompany her, and sometimes, she would be alone. Today, Melinda sneaked out alone.
Wandering in the maternal and infant store, Melinda liked children's clothes the most. They were so small that she thought they were amazing.
She paid attention on comfort particularly about how to dress herself. However, when choosing her child's clothes, she would see a variety of things, such as design, materials, and even a small pattern, which would make her hesitate for quite a while.
Outside the maternal and infant store, Emily was looking at Melinda through the transparent glass window, her eyes full of jealousy.
Why could Melinda have all this, while she could only be in a dark corner like a rat crossing the street?
She wanted Melinda to experience the feeling of falling from heaven to hell. Emily thought maliciously and followed her with malicious eyes. Melinda selected a lot of things and walked out from the maternal and infant store.
It was at this time that Emily came back to her senses. Her purpose of today's visit was to replace Melinda.
She quickly ran to Melinda and shouted, "Melinda, wait for a moment."
At first, Melinda thought she had misheard, but when she looked back, she saw Emily running in a hurry. Subconsciously, Melinda protected her stomach and hid aside. Melinda's guard against Emily was very strong.
"Let's replace a place to sit?" Emily looked at Melinda, pretending to be relaxed, and her eyes fell on the abdomen of her, which began to emerge.
Melinda wore a white T-shirt today and didn't cover her belly deliberately.
"If you have anything to say, just say it. I don't have time to waste with you here."
Melinda did not show a kind attitude to Emily. At the same time, in the crowded shopping mall, people looked at them curiously from time to time.
Emily wasn't surprised at all about Melinda's refusal, and she had even expected this to happen.
"We'd better replace a place to sit. You are pregnant now, aren't you?"
The smile on Emily's face made Melinda feel sick. She held her stomach tightly and looked around, then she said calmly, "Let's go to the coffee shop upstairs."
As people came and went, Emily didn't dare to do anything here. Melinda told herself like this and she was careful not to leave her back to Emily.
Emily shrugged and took the lead to go to the coffee shop, followed by Melinda. They ordered nothing but sat down.
"I heard that you had pretended to have an affair with Victor in order to get rid of Kent." As soon as she sat down, Emily said maliciously. It was a very simple thing, but in her eyes, it was like Melinda was a fickle woman.
Suddenly, Melinda laughed out angrily. Before she took her seat, she felt there was nothing to say between her and Emily.
"If you come to me just to tell me these things, then you may be disappointed,"
Melinda said. She didn't care about the mocking remarks of Emily at all, but pregnant women were easy to have mood swings. Melinda had to admit that she was still a little angry.
"I come to you for telling you something you don't know," said Emily, full of confidence. Looking at the impatient eyes of Melinda, she said slowly, "If I'm not wrong, the ex-wife of Victor was also there that day." Melinda's face turned solemn. She had a feeling that Emily was investigating her. Then Emily looked at her with mockery.
"Do you really think that there is such a coincidence in the world? Kent asked you out for dinner and you took Victor and met his ex-wife?"
Melinda didn't replace anything strange at first, but she felt something unusual after listening to what Emily said.
First of all, according to her understanding of Victor's ex-wife, that restaurant did not look like a place she would go at all.
Besides, there were two doors in the restaurant. Coincidentally, she passed by their table. At that time, they were in a small compartment.
She wouldn't have noticed them if she didn't observe it carefully. Or, of course, she could tell that because Victor's eyes were too hot. "So what? Are you here to tell me this?"
Melinda didn't think that Emily was so idle to tell her these things. Emily did not want to do this, either. What she wanted to say next was the key point.
"It's Jonas who asked Victor's ex-wife to go to that restaurant. He wanted to ruin your date," said Emily, smugly looking at Melinda, waiting for her response. But she was doomed to be disappointed.
Hearing this, Melinda was a little surprised and angry, but soon she calmed down.
"Oh, that's all you want to say?" Melinda made herself pretend to be calm and her face did not change, but she looked at Emily more indifferently.
She had gone through so much, it would be terrible if she was still as weak as before.
"It was all arranged by Jonas. He didn't want to see you break up with Kent at all. He only loves the baby in your belly, not you," Emily shouted at Melinda loudly, fearing that she would not listen to her. The coffee shop was not quiet, but it was not noisy. The sudden shout of Emily drew many people's attention.
The slightly bulging belly of Melinda showed obviously that she was with a child.
Many people looked at her with sympathy. Obviously, they thought Emily was a mistress. In fact, if these people looked at her more carefully, they would know that it was Emily.
However, to create an atmosphere, no one noticed her identity because of the dim light.
Melinda placed her hands on her lower abdomen, and felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, as if her heart was tightly gripped by someone.
She had suspected it before, but it was the first time that someone said that out loud in front of her.
But it was Emily. So no matter what the truth was, Melinda would not show any cowardice.
"The baby in my belly?" She touched her belly gently and smiled so innocently.
"But I'm the only one who is pregnant with his baby. I'm the only one who can be counted as his wife." Looking at Melinda's harmless face and hearing gentle words, Emily almost went mad. She began to get impatient and hurt everyone who tried to hurt her.
"You are just comforting yourself," Emily said angrily. Instead of making Melinda angry, she made herself feel even more uncomfortable.
"You don't have to tell me what Jonas has done. Besides, I know Jonas well, and he is not that sort of person," Melinda said calmly. She showed it to Emily that she believed in Jonas completely. But she began to worry. Melinda even prayed in her heart that Jonas wouldn't disappoint her again.
"Jonas is not that kind of person? Oh, Melinda, you are so funny. Do you really know Jonas well? Do you really know what kind of person he is?"
Emily sneered, and the sound almost made Melinda fall down.
In the heart of Emily, Jonas was a demon, a demon without any emotion. Everything he had was his will, and such a person would not fall in love with anyone. However, this demon gave his heart to a woman who knew nothing about him, Melinda.
"I don't care what kind of person he is. It's fine as long as he is nice to me and our baby." Melinda's face was full of happiness. Her words were gentle, but full of momentum. No matter what Emily said on the other side, Melinda only smiled and told her happily that she trusted Jonas unconditionally.
Also, she told Emily that she was in a good relationship with Jonas now.
Emily did not expect that Melinda would be like this. She repeated a few words, and even herself was tired of saying it, but Melinda suddenly became strong at this time.
"If you still want to sow dissension among us, I don't mind telling this to Jonas. You know I'm pregnant now and it's not a good time to worry about things. I'll let him handle it,"
Melinda said that calmly, but Emily was shocked. Thinking of what Jonas might do, she stood up from her seat. With a complicated look, she left the coffee shop.
She looked embarrassed with her steps and demeanor.
At this time, Melinda slowly relaxed her body on the seat, caressing the belly, gentle with a hint of helplessness.
"Babe, why is your father so childish?"
All of a sudden, Melinda thought of the weird feeling she had experienced that day. It turned out that she was right. Jonas knew all about that, or it was exactly Jonas who had arranged all this. No wonder that when she explained to him that day, he was not only happy, but also seemed to be a little proud.
'Jonas, don't be so self-satisfied,' she thought.
