After taking a bath, Jonas returned to the room. When he entered the room, he found that Melinda was
asleep, but there was still half a bed sheet left for him. Touched, he carefully pulled back the quilt and
held her in his arms.
She had been waving her hands because of discomfort. Then she mumbled something, clutched his
arm and fell asleep again.
It was still early now, so Jonas didn't want to go to bed early. But when he saw Melinda beside him, he
could smell her unique fragrance.
This smell was warm in the eyes of Jonas.
He could not help smiling and his eyes became softer.
In the middle of the night, Melinda woke up. She was a little sweaty and sticky. As soon as she made
any noise, he opened his eyes but couldn't see anything in the darkness. He turned on the bedside
lamp.
It seems that she felt uncomfortable. "I'm going to take a shower." she said to herself.
By the time she was refreshed, Jonas was leaning against the head of the bed and reading documents.
Feeling hungry, she said innocently, "I'm hungry."
At home, she often prepare herself a bottle of milk, but there was no milk powder. It was really
inconvenient for her to stay overnight.
"What do you want to eat? I'll buy it for you."
It occurred to him that the doctor had said that pregnant women were often woke up by being hungry at
midnight, so there might be something special with the food they ate. But he must understand, because
the blame made that she was like a child at that time.
"Will it be troublesome?" Melinda said while twisting her fingers. It was so exhausting at midnight that
she was distracted.
"I want to eat candied haw berries."
"You're not afraid of sour teeth, nor can you fill your stomach with it. It's just a snack." Jonas didn't
refuse her. Since she was hungry, she would like some fruit food.
After sugarcoated haws, she may want to eat more.
Melinda said several types of foods, which were in different regions of A City. At this time, it was difficult
to buy one of them.
But, in the end, she added, "I think dad also has noodles. I'm going to cook noodles."
Even so, she was still greedy for those delicious food.
"Waiting for me."
He left the bedroom and came back with a bag of snacks, which were what pregnant women could eat.
He bought these snacks from the supermarket today and left them in the car.
"You can eat these things first. And the other foods will come soon." Just now, in addition to taking
some food, Jonas also asked some people such as Ted to buy everything for her as soon as possible.
No matter what it would take, they must send it to here tonight.
Melinda looked at those snacks in high spirits, and picked out something she was interested in. She
said that they were for her stomach, but the more she ate, the more she liked them.
Jonas seriously suspected that when those things were delivered, she couldn't eat any more.
One hour later, Jonas's phone rang. He went out and opened the door, with some food in his hands.
All of a sudden, she felt that Jonas was like a person that he could have anything you wanted.
When she was full, she looked at the time and found that it was already two o'clock in the morning. She
rubbed her full stomach and felt embarrassed.
But when he saw that she ate so much, he was very happy. He wished that she had such an appetite
every day.
"You must be very tired if our baby continue to be so noisy at midnight." Jonas rested his head on her
belly. He was surprised.
"Of course not."
Melinda smiled with happiness, but at the same time, she felt that the baby was going to be the
scapegoat at such a young age.
It was her who made the fuss. But Jonas just mentioned the baby.
"You should go to bed. You have to work tomorrow." Said Jonas. He didn't understand why she insisted
on working, but he respected her choice.
Melinda nodded. It was quiet at the moment. She had a nice dream all night and. Her biological clock
woke her up on time.
The seat next to the bed was empty. When Melinda finished cleaning, she found that Jonas was
preparing breakfast. Vern couldn't help but praise Jonas.
It was not low-key for Jonas to drive her to work. His car was big and famous in the company, and soon
people noticed it.
In the following days, Jonas was addicted to this kind of life. He sent Melinda to and off work every day.
How he wished the whole world knew that Melinda was his woman.
No matter what she said, Jonas kept doing this.
The gossips of the company had been popular again. Melinda didn't care about this, but it was
inevitable to hear a lot.
"Which car did he drive today?" A woman said while fixing her make-up in front of the mirror. At the
beginning, they also thought the owners of these cars were different from other, and the owners of
these cars were different. Finally they found out that it was the same person.
"It has nothing to do with you. You can't afford it." Another woman taunted, while she was sipping her
lipstick.
The woman had delicate features. She was a rare beauty. She also had a sugar daddy, but he was
much worse than Jonas.
"Mr. Cheng is the only one who can afford this car in our company." The woman said with disdain. She
thought that Melinda just found a sugar daddy too.
They were both envious and jealous of Melinda.
"It depends on her sugar daddy weather was rich enough or not."
The two looked at each other and burst into laughter. "And she even has two sugar daddies at the
same time."
"She not only flirts with Mr. Cheng, but also plays with another."
"Exactly."
A women sneered and began to sort out her things. She touched her face unconsciously and thought,
'I'm not bad looking. Why am I not so lucky?'
"Maybe men nowadays prefer such women like pretend to be innocent."
Another person looked at her makeup with the mirror and nodded in agreement.
They used to wearing makeup. Without makeup, they always felt that their faces looked bad. In other
words, they didn't get used to being without makeup and even disliked their faces.
In the past, Melinda had light make-up, but now, after pregnancy, she seldom came into contact with
such things.
"She's in her late 20s and always treats herself as a college student." She was now dressed in loose
and casual clothes, coupled with comfortable flat shoes, with her hair mostly hanging down or being
tied up. It seemed that a lot of people believe that she was a college student.
"I really can't understand Mr. Cheng's taste. There are so many pretty girls in the company, but he fell
in love with such a skittish woman."
The two girls packed their things, and checked their make-up. When they were about to wash their
hands and leave, the door of the compartment of the bathroom was opened. Melinda came out, looking
at them coldly.
They began to feel embarrassed. Melinda's eyes were clear and there was no trance of the usual.
At the thought of this, they all felt that they had a dirty mind.
She walked slowly to the two women and slowly washed her hands. Recently, she had become more
and more delicate because of being pampered, which made the two women feel a little ashamed.
"I have told you many times that Mr. Cheng and I are just ordinary friends. I hope you can clear up the
terrible thoughts in your minds."
She didn't sound hurried or flustered. She was just stating a fact that she found it unnecessary to
explain for such them.
She also knew that there were a lot of rumors in the company recently because Jonas drove her to
work. But she didn't expect these people to say such bad words behind her.
Thinking of this, Melinda was in a bad mood.
"It's our guess. You and Mr. Cheng are just ordinary friends." One of them quickly responded and said
with a faked smile.
Said another woman "Yes, everyone knows."
While speaking, they pushed each other and left the bathroom. When they went far, one of them spat.
"Who do Melinda think she are? How can she talk to us in such a tone? We wouldn't have talked to her
if she hadn't gone to Mr. Cheng and exposed us."
"Yeah, it's not easy to find a better job now." The other woman said in a bad mood. After whispering for
a while, the two women didn't notice Melinda at the corner.
Melinda touched her belly and told herself to calm down. The baby would also feel upset if she got
angry with them.
At the thought of what they did, she was overwhelmed by rage. It turned out that they were not just
friends.
It turned out that behind the seemingly peaceful facade was the fear of power.
After returning to the office, Melinda was still in a bad mood, a bit irritable, and the people in the
Department did not dare to say anything.
People knew what happened in the restroom from the two big mouthed women, but they didn't know
whether Mr. Cheng knew it.
It was another family drama.
However, not only did Victor hear the rumor, he also heard the news that Melinda was in a bad mood
and got angry with people in the Department.
"The weather is not yet completely hot, why did you blow up first?" Victor poured a cup of drink for her.
She took it over and put it aside coldly.
"Mr. Cheng, what do you need?"
She didn't want to hear people say anything bad about her. Therefore, being comforted by Victor, she
only wanted to be alienated from him. She felt that she and Victor were not ordinary friends which is
better.
"Melinda, we are still friends now." Said Victor, touching his nose innocently. He felt like the fire was
about to burn him.
