Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness Chapter 224 The Accident

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

There were only two people left in the tea room, Jerry and Emily. And Holley left after saying that.

She did not intend to participate in the matter in person. What the thing would be going was up to Emily

and Jerry.

"How about asking her out at night to a remote place?" said Emily. That was the only thing she could

think of. She took Melinda to the airtight room in the suburb, which would be absolutely scary at night.

Hearing her words, Jerry's face darkened. He thought it was right that the woman had no intelligence.

"Do you think Melinda will agree?"

Melinda was not a fool. She would not go to the suburb in the middle of the night, unless her

intelligence was the same as Emily's, and her brain was purely a decoration.

"What should we do now? How can Holley leave without a clear explanation?" Emily could not think of

a way to deal with it, so she was angry at Holley again.

Jerry sensed something but didn't say anything.

"Make an appointment with Melinda to the higher floor for coffee. By that time, we only have to figure

out a way to make the elevator break down."

Jerry already had a proper place in his mind, but he didn't tell Emily everything, so that Emily could

think about it.

"The elevator was a closed space and it was in the high floor. Melinda could not be rescued

immediately. At that time, as long as she is frightened too much, an accident can happen."

Emily was suddenly enlightened and quickly caught up with him. She thought it was a good idea.

"That's right. If something bad happened to Melinda, neither will Jonas." Jerry grinned evilly. If only

something bad had happened to Melinda, he could see the miserable look on Jonas's face.

"Where is such a place? Besides, how can we ask Melinda out?"

Emily was in a dilemma again. She felt this was really troublesome. For a long time, Melinda ignored

her. Perhaps everything was ready, but this didn't go smoothly.

"Isn't the grand pagoda of the A City suitable? There is a coffee shop upstairs." As expected, Jerry

thought that he had overestimated Emily, for she couldn't think of anywhere.

"Yes, the elevator is not made of glass." Emily nodded. Most of the buildings now were decorated by

glass elevators, while the one in the grand pagoda in A City were not.

It was a classic building in A City. It was also an old shopping mall.

Many people said that one had never been to A City if he or she did not go to the grand pagoda, which

included food, clothing, etc.

"Now we have the solution. Call her out and it's all up to you," Jerry said. He also stood up and drank

the tea in his cup.

At this time, Emily was immersed in the pleasure that can teach Melinda a lesson, and did not notice

the change of Jerry's attitude.

She knew a lot of people who would do anything for money. She negotiated with them about the price.

Everything was waiting for her to ask Melinda out.

These days, Melinda lived a simple life between company and home. Although she lived a simple life,

she was very happy every day, because she could visit her father every day.

Even if Jonas was very busy, he would accompany Melinda in Vern's home and send her home in

person.

"I'll go up by myself." When the car stopped in front of Melinda's place, she unfastened the seat belt

and said. The quiet smile on her face made Jonas itchy.

When Melinda opened the door and was about to get out of the car, her hand was grasped by Jonas.

When she was still in confusion, he said in a deep voice, "Linda, I... Can I kiss you?"

Hearing that, Melinda's face turned red all of a sudden. It seemed that she had returned to her campus,

where she felt nervous when having an intimate relationship.

His eyes were like the stars in the sky and the sun shone with glow. His thin lips were slightly watery

and looked seductive.

She looked down and didn't say anything for a while. Then she looked up and seemed to have made a

great decision. She leaned over and gave a soft kiss on the cheek of Jonas. With a bright smile, she

said, "Good night."

After a short pause, Jonas smiled.

That night, Melinda would read parenting books after freshening up, and read industry news later. She

would go to bed when the time was almost up.

"Hello." The moment Melinda was about to lay down and have a rest, her cell phone rang. She saved

this number in her memory and it was Emily's number!

The moment she saw the name, her good mood disappeared.

"You don't want to answer it, do you?" Emily did not feel embarrassed to be disliked, instead, she

laughed even more happily. She would like to see how long Melinda could be arrogant.

"Do you have anything that deserves my respect?" Melinda sneered and wondered what on earth

Emily would call her at this hour.

"You're right. After all, Jonas and I..." Emily's words did not rouse a stream of Melinda's interest.

She liked to use such a method to sow dissension between Jonas and her. Melinda warned herself in

her heart.

"I have to go if you don't have anything important."

"Wait. Do you have time tomorrow? Let's have coffee together." Emily was a little angry. She had never

thought that Melinda would be so calm.

"Coffee?" She thought she must have misheard. Emily asked her out for coffee and she felt it was out

of her imagination.

"Yes, as long as you talk to me this time, I won't bother you in the future."

Melinda hesitated.

She was afraid that Emily would come back to the stage again, and this became a big trouble for her.

"I agree. Send me the address later."

Not wanting to talk more with Emily, Melinda hung up the phone and got a message from Emily soon.

It was the first time that Melinda came to the grand pagoda, but it was the first time that she came to

this coffee shop. Though the grand pagoda was the highest building in the city, it was now swallowed in

the tall buildings of the city.

But it would not affect its influence to this city.

Even if it was at ordinary times, there were many people in the grand pagoda.

The coffee shop was on the 25th floor. Melinda was waiting directly in front of the guest elevator. Many

people came for fun directly by taking escalators, which made her seem a little lonely.

"Mellie." Kent thought he was wrong. After all, Melinda seldom went out now. But no matter how much

she changed, he could recognize the person he missed every day at a glance.

"Kent." Turning around, Melinda was a little surprised to see Kent who had walked behind her. She

didn't expect to meet him here.

"Why are you here?" questioned Kent doubtfully. After all, there was a certain distance between here

and her company or residence.

He had something important to do today.

Melinda's fingers twisted together and finally made a circle. She bit her lips and said, "I'm here to see

Emily."

"To see Emily? What do you want to see that woman?" Hearing that, Kent's eyebrows immediately

wrinkled. Melinda repeated to him what Emily had said on the phone.

"I just want to untie the knot in my heart."

"Does Jonas know this?" Kent knew what was in Melinda's mind, so he didn't ask her more. Instead, he

asked about Jonas, who was one of the persons concerned in the accident.

"I didn't tell him."

Melinda didn't think it was important, so she didn't mention it to Jonas. They were in a public place, and

Emily was not a monster, so she thought that she could take care of herself.

However, Kent didn't think so. There must be a plot behind Emily's sudden visit to Melinda.

"Mellie, I don't think you need to see Emily. Maybe there is a plot behind it." Kent was terrified just to

think about it.

"Kent, don't worry. Emily won't do that," Melinda said with a smile. Jonas would be hurt was because

they went to a remote place.

It was the grand pagoda in the city, and there were many people going back and forth in every place.

Emily really had to think about it even if she wanted to do something.

What's more, she still had many scandals.

"Maybe Emily did the opposite. Anyway, you can't go up today." It was rare for Kent to be so

domineering. He stood in front of Melinda to prevent her from entering the elevator.

A group of people came out of the elevator. Melinda was guarded behind by Kent. His manly

appearance attracted many people's attention. A red flush quietly appeared on Melinda's face.

As the group of people went away, Kent still didn't let her go. Instead, he dragged her out and said,

"Mellie, listen to me today. If she was determined to let it go, she wouldn't have pestered you for so

long. A conversation wouldn't solve the problem with such a person."

Melinda thought what Kent said made sense. She could be not vigilant to many people, but to Emily,

she had to be highly vigilant.

Kent's car was parked in the parking lot outside the grand pagoda. He sighed with relief after he forced

Melinda into his car. He was really worried that something would happen if he did not met Melinda

today.

"Aren't you going to work today?" Kent asked. Melinda nodded her head. She had asked for leave

today. If it was on weekend, she would not have gone out so easily.

The weekend in A City was crowded with people everywhere. Melinda didn't want to be squeezed by

them.

"Let me drive you home. If Emily asked you out again, you must... You must tell Jonas about it and do

not to be fooled, okay?"

Kent exhorted her worriedly. Melinda nodded repeatedly. For the first time in her life, she felt that Kent

was nagging, but she was moved that he cared about her so much.

Now she also felt that she was not considerate this time. If something really happened, she would

regret it.

Melinda didn't show up on time as she had promised, and Emily didn't call her either, which made Kent

more certain that there was a conspiracy involved.

However, Emily didn't go to the coffee shop at all. She believed that the plan would be successful. She

thought that the reason why Melinda didn't show up was that she was trapped in the elevator.

Kent sent her home and said good-bye to her. He didn't leave until he made sure that Melinda had kept

what he said in mind.
