Melinda felt stressed even when she was eating because of the accompany of Jonas and his gaze.
"Would you like to eat? the servant prepared too much."
Melinda said helplessly. The servant saw Jonas, specially prepared more food for them, it was not sure
that they could eat up all the food.
"Okay."
Jonas sat down beside her, putting food onto her plate and smirking.
He ate slowly, deliberately procrastinating. Melinda had only promised to give him a little more time, or
she might ask him to leave later.
"Dear, I haven't protected the baby yet. Let me guard you tonight."
Melinda was sitting on the sofa. The parenting books were placed on the bookshelf next to the sofa,
and all of them were commented by Jonas. Sometimes she found it difficult to understand why he still
have time to do that even he was so busy every day.
Therefore, Melinda seemed that it's his assistant efforts.
But the words on the cover belonged to Jonas. Every time Jonas talked about babies, he would be
straight to the point, which made her think that maybe Jonas could write a diary of developing as a
nursing father.
"Don't enter my bedroom."
Melinda's heart was softened, but this was her last line. As long as he could stay, he would be happy. It
didn't matter where he would stay.
"Okay, I will stay here and protect you and our baby."
His big palm fell on her lower abdomen, where she began to show her pregnancy gradually. The
hotness of his palm made her retreat with some discomfort.
"I'm a little sleepy." Explained Melinda, smoothing her hair. Then she bit her lip, wondering what she
was trying to explain.
Jonas stood up from his seat and reached out his hand to hold her. "Let me lead you in. Don't worry. I
won't break my promise."
He also felt a little tired. After making sure that Melinda was asleep, he went to the living room. The
servant helped him take a quilt and a pillow and put them on the sofa.
Since Jonas was tall, the sofa looked narrow and small when lying on it. The feeling of being unable to
stretch was not comfortable, and he slept badly.
But he could not help feeling sweet as long as he thought that it was Melinda who was in the bedroom.
The servant knew what she can do. Seeing that Jonas was at home, she didn't come to disturb him in
the early morning and it was the doorbell that woke him up.
In order to protect Melinda, Jonas installed a monitor at the door.
There was a man standing in the middle of the screen, dressed in gray casual clothes, bowing his head
to look at the stuff in his hand. He narrowed his eyes and then opened the door.
"Mellie, I … I brought breakfast with me. "
Seeing Jonas, Kent's excitement disappeared. He lowered his head and hands slowly.
He felt like his heart was being held tightly by someone, but he still kept smiling in front of Jonas.
With his hand on the doorknob, Jonas had no intention to let Kent in. Melinda just walked out of the
bedroom and saw the silent confrontation between the two man.
"Jonas, why are you doing?" She suddenly stopped scratching her hair, went to the position of the door,
and slapped heavily on the palm of Jonas, and opened the door.
"Kent, come in please."
Melinda stepped aside and said to Kent. Jonas looked at Kent with a hint of warning in his eyes.
He hoped that Kent could be sensible and not to come in.
However, there was a huge gap between hope and reality.
Meeting his eyes, Kent didn't show any resistance but greeted him, "I bring you warmth in the early
morning. Are you moved?"
He picked up the breakfast in his hand. Seeing the familiar logo, her eyes lit up. That was the breakfast
shop near the college, her favorite one.
Since she was pregnant, her tastes had changed a lot, being weird and nostalgic.
"Thank you, Kent. You must be in a long queue." Melinda led Kent to the dining table. Kent put the
things on it and found the tableware as he remembered before. But he found that the layout of the
whole kitchen had changed a lot from the subtle details. It was no longer what he remembered.
"I'm quite familiar with the boss, so I got the chance through some back door."
Following behind the two men, Jonas was angry because he had heard their good chat, and was very
unhappy about his breakfast, turning a deaf ear to it.
Kent raised his head and looked into the eyes of Jonas with a suspicious look. Melinda pointed at
Jonas and said, "he came my home and have a rest yesterday."
It was so early in the morning and there must be some misunderstanding. She didn't know what to say.
But Kent smiled and pretended to be careless, "I believe that you know what you are doing and what
you should do."
Melinda breathed a sigh of relief, while Jonas was getting more and more irritated. He had every
reason to live with Melinda, so why should he explain to Kent.
"I'll find a few dishes. Let's eat together, Kent." Melinda nodded. Although she rarely cooked, she knew
where the stuff was placed.
Kent had bought breakfast for two people. Since Jonas was here, it would be awkward for the three of
them to eat at the same table.
"Mellie, take good care of yourself. I have something to deal with in the company. I'll go first." Kent was
about to lap her on the shoulder, but stopped in midair at last.
"Well, be careful on the road. I'll treat you to dinner when I'm free." Hearing that, Melinda stopped her
action of picking up the bowls and dishes, and sent Kent away.
All this time, Jonas looked at the two people silently. When Melinda returned to the table, she saw
Jonas throwing the breakfast.
"You can't ruin his breakfast even if you don't like it," Melinda said. "No matter what, it's Kent's kindness
to us.".
"The servants will prepare you a more nutritious breakfast later."
The clothes were still he wore yesterday, but his shirt was wrinkled. At this time, he had to unbutton it,
and appeared in front of Melinda half naked.
She almost wanted to cover her eyes with her hands, but she finally calmed herself down.
"I want to eat breakfast from near the college today. Don't toss about."
She was afraid that Jonas would ask his assistant to buy something for him at will, which was in
accordance with his domineering character.
"I think you will like anything from Kent." Jonas murmured to himself. His voice was low, but Melinda
could hear it clearly.
"Whatever you say."
Melinda pulled out a chair and sat down. Due to the slight anger in her heart, she acted a little more
violently. When she accidentally hit her belly, she was petrified in place.
Although nothing had happened, fear after the event haunted het. Jonas was also scared. He hurriedly
went to pull up a stool and helped Melinda to sit down.
"Don't worry. I'll ask auntie to wrap the edges. It will be okay." Said Jonas as as he patted on her back,
trying to comfort her.
After sitting for a while, Melinda came to herself and warned herself to be careful in the future. She was
not alone now, she was carrying a fragile baby in her womb and needed her protection.
Sitting next to Melinda, Jonas held her hand and placed it on her belly, which was his favorite move
recently.
"Linda."
Jonas Pei called her gently, as if he was afraid that a little louder voice would disturb the baby and her
mother.
"Yes."
She liked the warm and sweet feeling very much. She didn't refuse his action and even began to look
forward to the growth of the baby. When the baby grew up, would he kick his own stomach to greet the
outside world.
She put her hands on her belly and felt the baby's four limbs. It seemed that everything was fantastic
and full of expectation.
"Why do you care so much about what Kent thinks of you? Does his opinion mean a lot to you?"
Since the beginning of Melinda's showing up at home, this question had been bottled up in Jonas's
heart. He couldn't help but ask her.
Melinda didn't answer him, but looked at him strangely, wondering what he was crazy about all of a
sudden.
"You still remember Kent, right?"
The fact that she didn't answer him made Jonas nervous. Thinking of this possibility, he couldn't help
but feel rage in his chest. He refused to accept such a result.
The brutality in his eyes seemed to destroy everything, making people feel afraid, but she didn't feel
anything.
Maybe because she knew Jonas wouldn't hurt her, the fiercer he was, the calmer Melinda was.
Moreover, she was speechless with his inexplicable childish behavior.
"Honey, please answer me. Have I put you in a dilemma? Or am I right? " The more he thought about
it, the worse it would be. He put his fingers under the table tightly and lowered his eyebrows. He didn't
want to show his ferocity to her.
"What's wrong with you?" Said Melinda. The wonton brought by Kent was still the same flavor as
before. She smiled with satisfaction.
Her answer made Jonas feel relieved. No matter who she loved, since she was with him now, he would
be the father of her baby.
After comforting himself like this, Jonas felt much better. Seeing that Melinda began to have breakfast,
he eagerly said, "Linda, you should eat more, so that the baby in your belly will grow up healthily."
The sudden care from Jonas made her pause. She then stuffed a spoon into his mouth.
"It is hot?"
Just when he was moved that Melinda share the food with him, she suddenly asked him. He was
almost choked by his saliva.
"You are afraid of hot food, just hold on a second." He swallowed his saliva and said helplessly. Then
he consciously tried other breakfasts.
