The dinner was prepared by Kent. The pregnant woman, Melinda, was forbade to enter the kitchen. On
the one hand, Vern did not like Kent; on the other hand, he wanted to see if he could take good care of
his daughter.
Vern had already known in his heart that he could not persuade Melinda.
The dinner was very rich with light taste, which was suitable for Vern's recovery from serious illness
and the pregnant woman like Melinda. But it was a little embarrassing for the three people to eat
together.
Melinda thought her father had given up. To her surprise, he started the conversation while eating
again.
"Mellie, haven't you contacted Jonas today? When I was sick, he took care of me everyday and learned
new recipes for me."
When Vern spoke of Jonas, he didn't forget to take Melinda with him. It was not until he recovered that
Kent knew he had come to visit him. Being compared with Jonas, Kent was somewhat embarrassed.
"God knows how busy he is!" Melinda looked carefully at Kent. Seeing that he did not react much, she
felt relieved secretly.
"The more capable he is, the more responsible he is. But nothing is more important than his health. He
had talked to me casually, how could he be so careless?"
Vern said awkwardly. Every word he said was about Jonas, which made Melinda feel uneasy, not to
mention Kent.
"Dad, no talking while eating." Melinda was very depressed. She had thought that after Kent saved his
father, his father would not oppose at all, but she didn't expect that it would be like this.
Jonas was a character. Even his father had been won over by him.
"When did you get used to such a manner? Jonas taught you?" At this moment, Vern spoke
subconsciously about Jonas. Kent was picking up the food and stopped in place. In fact, he wanted to
talk to Vern for several times at the dinner, but he was ignored by him all the time.
Hearing this, Melinda slammed her chopsticks on the table, and the two men turned to her
simultaneously.
"Dad, I'm full."
Melinda hadn't eaten anything at all. The delicious food on the table was basically untouched. Her
father's face turned stiff. He didn't expect that she would disrespect him so harshly.
He simply put down his chopsticks and looked at the two people. Kent originally wanted to persuade
Melinda, but he was directly pulled up from his seat by her forcefully.
"Dad, I feel a little uncomfortable and want to go for a walk."
While saying that, Melinda didn't wait for her father's response and pulled Kent outwards. Both Vern
and Kent felt that she was a little angry.
"I'm sorry, Senior," Melinda said to Kent as soon as they left home. She did not miss the discomfort of
Kent, but he bore the pain for her.
She didn't deal with the relationship between her father and her senior well.
"It doesn't matter. He may not get used to the change of his son-in-law, but he loves you so much that
he will definitely accept your choice, so that he will slowly accept me."
Kent touched her head and comforted her. When Melinda was sad, she was as cute as a rabbit.
"Well, dad will definitely accept you and agree us to be together."
Melinda nodded firmly. She didn't believe that Kent couldn't do it if Jonas could conquer her father.
"You little fool," Kent said, rubbing Melinda's nose. Then he held her hand and walked out. The street
lights in this neighborhood were dim at night, but it made people feel warm inexplicably.
"I've spoiled the dinner you prepared for me."
"It doesn't matter. If you like it, I can prepare it. I will ask you to order the dishes next time."
"Then I want..." Melinda's voice dissipated at the end of the road. At the same time, Vern walked
towards the room from the balcony in the distance.
The noisy living room became cold and cheerless suddenly, leaving him alone. Vern could not help but
mutter, "you ungrateful kid."
The elders really could not figure out what happened between the children, but Vern felt it necessary to
do something.
Holding the phone, he hesitated for a long time, but still called Nelson.
Although they were relatives by marriage, they rarely contacted each other.
"Uncle Nelson," Vern greeted. Nelson was two years older than his father, Leonard, so he called him
that since childhood. It was just that he didn't know that Uncle Nelson was a well-known entrepreneur
in A City at that time.
"Vern, why do you call me today? I heard from Jonas that you had been ill a few days ago. Are you all
right?"
All the politeness and gentleness that Nelson had had given to the Mo family throughout his life. He
was a kind elder to Vern.
"I am all right now. Please don't worry about me. How are you feeling recently?" Vern was a little
annoyed. As a younger generation, he had even forgotten these manners. He could only say that he
was irritated by the fact that Melinda and Kent were together.
"Everything is fine," Nelson replied happily. Now he was much better than before, and the relationship
between Linda and Jon also became good. What's more, they finally had a child.
Nelson's heart ached when he thought of the innocent missing child.
Fortunately, everything was all right now.
"Uncle Nelson, I call you to ask what has happened to Mellie and Jonas."
He didn't contact Melinda recently. Every time he met Jonas, Jonas was always in a hurry. He cared
about him and didn't talk much about Melinda, so he didn't know much about the two children.
Nelson was very confused, but he replied, "Everything goes well. I'm pleased to see that the two
children have overcome all the difficulties."
"Uncle Nelson, are you sure? Why is Mellie with Kent now?"
Not knowing what had happened, Vern realized that she seemed to have hidden it from everyone.
Nelson was shocked when he heard this.
"I'll go ask Jonas."
Finishing these words, Nelson hung up the phone. At that moment, Queena came down the stairs and
was called out by him.
"Dad, what's up?"
Queena had made an appointment with several rich ladies. At this time, she was ready to go out.
"Has Jonas come back recently?" asked Nelson. Since Jonas was busy with his work and often went to
Melinda's place recently, there was less time for him to meet Nelson.
Nelson didn't know when it was the last time that Jonas came back home.
"He has been in Mellie's place these two days. They get along well. What's wrong?"
Queena was stunned. She didn't know why Nelson asked her this question. Nelson sighed again after
hearing it. They were all kept in the dark.
"Vern called and told me that Linda was with Kent now." Kent was not a stranger to Nelson and
Queena. Queena exploded when she heard that.
"How can that be possible? If Melinda and Kent get together, the baby's last name will be Jiang. It is
the child of Gu family!"
"You'd better ask Jonas about it. It's been a long time. He hasn't got along with Linda yet."
Nelson was dissatisfied with Jonas's failure to chase Melinda even though they had already had a
child. Was he really pursuing her with all his heart?
Queena didn't care about playing with her friends anymore. She talked a few words with Nelson and
then called Jonas, asking him what was going on.
In fact, Jonas was the last one to know that his wife was together with someone else, and with their
child.
"Don't spend all your time on the trifles in the company. You should try to get Linda back. If your wife
and child belong to other people, you will lose everything!"
Queena said. Jonas felt wronged because he knew nothing at all.
It only past a few hours since Melinda decided to be with Kent. If Jonas knew, it would be too strange.
"Mommy, where did you get the gossip?" Jonas still couldn't believe the news. He had a good time with
Linda these two days. How could she get together with Kent so soon?
When he remembered that Kent was also there when he saved Vern today, Jonas had a bad feeling.
"The news was from Melinda's father. How could it be wrong? What are you doing these days?"
Queena was even more furious when she heard that. Jonas didn't even know that his wife was chased
away.
"Mommy, I'll look into it,"
said Jonas, his eyes squinting dangerously. Kent dared to take even his girl away, and he was as bold
as he was before.
It seemed that he was too gentle at that time, which made Kent not afraid at all.
Jonas immediately called Ted and asked him to investigate the matter.
"Since this afternoon, Mrs. Melinda went to the coffee shop with Kent Jiang in the afternoon. They
acted intimately after getting in the car." Ted did things well, and the investigation turned out to be a
little astounding to Jonas.
Actually, it was not necessary to mention such a detail. His heart was filled with jealousy all of a
sudden. He couldn't understand what Kent did to make Linda agree to be with him.
'No, I have to find a way to separate them as soon as possible.'
"Ted, I need all the social information of Kent. Be quick!"
With Jonas's order, Ted and his fellow subordinates got back to work. They checked the information
one by one quickly and looked through the computer screen.
Soon enough, a well sorted data was sent to the mailbox of Jonas.
Looking at the detailed information above, Jonas combed through the information in his mind and soon
a plan was formed in his mind.
"Ted, whether it works or not this time, it depends on whether you are upright enough or not," said
Jonas. Then he told Ted he needed his help to act in the drama.
"Don't worry, boss. I'm good at it." After hearing what he said, Ted promised while patting his chest.
