After seeing Jerry once, Emily had many plans in her heart, but they were all up to Jerry's cooperation.
Jerry was immersed in the fact that he could inherit the family business of Gu family. Emily was good at
taking advantage of people's minds, and she saw through his ambition.
She wanted to help Jerry to grab all that Jonas had in the Gu family, so he must beg her for help then.
But in this case, she needed to make a good plan.
It wasn't easy for her to get out of the police station this time. Jonas had found Colin who bailed her
out. Colin was in a high position, but Jonas was not a man he could deal with at will. He also warned
Emily not to make trouble.
Owing to the unpleasant thing that had happened last time, Jonas was a typical office worker now. The
news he reported every day and night was reported by the staff, leaving uncomfortably hard for Ted
and William.
Several days later, as soon as Jonas got home, he was called to the study by Nelson, who was holding
a tea pot and making a cup of tea made by Melinda. The faint fragrance of flowers pervaded the whole
study, making people feel at ease.
Jonas stood there quietly, waiting for Nelson to speak.
These were his experiences accumulated over the years. Nelson had asked him to the study, either
giving him orders or teaching him lessons.
"How are you getting on with Mellie recently?" Nelson said as he casted a glance at Jonas, with his
right hand rubbing the head of his walking stick.
Jonas knew that what had happened to him and Melinda recently worried his family a lot. "Linda has a
serious knot in her heart, but she will get better sooner or later."
"I have heard that for many times," Nelson snorted. His sharp eyes made him look like the unrelenting
general.
Jonas touched his nose awkwardly. He had done nothing wrong. Every time the situation was better,
Emily always ran out to make trouble. Everything went back to the beginning.
It was like a dead loop. But the good thing was that Linda was still with him after all these things.
"Do you know that there are only two days left for Mellie to celebrate her birthday?" Nelson was a little
guilty when he said this. Recently he began to be confused and almost forgot it.
It was not until he made a call to Melinda's grandfather and heard he regret not being able to celebrate
the birthday with Melinda that Nelson realized that.
"Isn't Linda's birthday next week?" Jonas remembered those days very clearly and wondered if his
grandfather had misread the date.
Hearing this, Nelson was very happy, and even a little proud. "Mellie has always been celebrating the
lunar birthday, not the one on the ID card."
Leonard was particular about this. Besides, the date on the ID card was always a little wrong.
"Grandpa, let's celebrate Linda's birthday," said Jonas. He could not help but recall something that had
happened long time ago. Back then, when Melinda was in college, she wanted to invite him to her
birthday party, but in the end, she didn't even get a chance to talk to him.
And Melinda had married to Gu family for so many years and had never celebrated a birthday. The
guiltiness in Jonas's heart almost beat him to death. He swore secretly that he would do his best to
celebrate the birthday for Linda.
Nelson was satisfied with what Jonas did, and that was the main reason why he asked him here today.
With his awareness, he didn't say anything more.
Melinda had a lot of work to deal with in the company. After the last case was approved, she was in
charge of many things.
She was extremely busy. It was said that after one was 20 years old, one's birthday would not have
been a big deal, and Melinda had totally forgotten her birthday.
Just before getting off work, Melinda received a call from Jonas, saying that Nelson had a small party in
Gu's mansion and it was a little noisy, so the two of them went back to the apartment near the company
and stayed there.
"Melinda, let me give you a ride." Melinda worked overtime for the program today. Victor was a very
sympathetic boss. In fact, he was a little overshadowed by the incident in Emily's kidnap last time.
"No, thank you. I'll go to the subway station later and it's not late now," Melinda said while looking at the
watch on her wrist. Then she quickly tidied up her belongings. Victor didn't say anything, but silently
sent her to the subway station.
The light was completely off in the apartment. Frowning, Melinda wondered if Jonas had to work
overtime again today.
Suddenly, a piece of music sounded, and the man slowly walked towards her with the cake in his hand.
His brisk voice and gentle smile under the candlelight were dreamlike.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Melinda could not believe what she was seeing. It was so
unbelievable that she covered her mouth with her hand. It was not until now that Jonas picked up a
crown that had been placed aside and put it on her head. With a smile on his face, he said, "Happy
birthday, my queen."
"You..." Touched by his action, Melinda didn't know what to say. Seeing her like this, Jonas felt that he
had prepared well for the whole day. He put his hand on her eyes, and her trembling eyelashes were
like the wings of a butterfly in his palms.
"Make your wishes now." With these words, Jonas sang the birthday song again. At the beginning, he
was preparing for the family celebrated it for her, but Queena thought it was a rare opportunity for him
to be alone with Melinda outside.
Melinda was very obedient. She did whatever Jonas asked her to do. Finally, she was taken by Jonas
to the dinner table. It was a romantic candlelight dinner.
What touched her most was that all this was prepared by Jonas himself. His love was enough to shake
her determination.
She was like a princess who was spoiled by Jonas.
"Jonas." Melinda put down her knife and fork, and looked at the man sitting opposite to her. His eyes
were deep, and his nose was tall and thin, with a smile on his thin lips. He was like the most romantic
work of God. But at this time, this man told her plainly that he belonged to her.
"Yes?"
Jonas looked at Melinda in confusion, wondering why she called his name. But he naturally put on a
smile as he looked at her.
"I feel happy now,"
said Melinda, whose face immediately turned red. It was really embarrassing for her to say so, but at
this time, she really wanted to speak out all her thoughts, and tell them clearly to the person in front of
her.
Jonas was in a daze at first, and then ecstatic. He put down the knife and fork in his hands, rushed
over and hugged her.
The candle was still shining, and overlapped shadows were hitting on the wall, which looked like two
people.
When Melinda woke up, she was held tightly by Jonas.
Due to the movement of Melinda, Jonas woke up and held her in his arm. "Honey, sleep a little longer."
How Jonas wished he could stay with his wife like this for the rest of his life.
However, Melinda pushed Jonas away unhappily and stared at him angrily for a few seconds. She
didn't know why she was so mad at him. In the end, she sat down on the side in low spirit and began to
think about her life.
Seeing that she was in a huff, Jonas could not help but burst into laughter. He stood up and held her in
his arms, and said emotionally, "Linda, we will be like this from now on, okay?"
He didn't like the way she resisted him at all. The heart that he loved her was very simple. He hoped
that she could see and feel.
Meanwhile, Melinda also began to think about what happened these days. Although she didn't say
anything, Jonas could feel that Melinda had changed in the following days.
Although Emily was discharged from the police station, she did not get any news for a month.
Gradually, Melinda was relieved. Today, such a peaceful and happy life was what she long for.
Since they had sex after the birthday, they were getting more and more intimate. Sometimes, Queena
would tease her. In the beginning, Melinda would be shy, but later, she was very calm.
But recently, Melinda was troubled by another event. Her period had been very punctual, but it was
almost the end of this month and hadn't come yet. She was worried that it might be the sequel.
Women were sometimes irritable when they had their period, but they were also annoyed when the
period didn't come. When chatting with Queena, Melinda spoke out her vexation like a joke.
"How long haven't you been in period?" Queena heard it and a surprised look came across her eyes.
She thought of a possibility, so when she asked Melinda, she was excited, which confused Melinda
more.
"It's more than one month. Should I have an examination?" Melinda had already done everything she
could to recuperate her body. But why did something go wrong at last?
"Yes, you need to have a check-up, but only to see if you are pregnant or
not."
