"Dad, don't you love Mellie the most? Do you really want to see them being treated like this?" Queena
became more and more anxious. If Nelson was unwilling to pay attention to it, it would be in a state of
unsolved.
Nelson stopped holding the stick. He didn't answer Queena's question, but rubbed the dragon head on
the top of the stick with his finger.
"Alston always does everything in the proper way." Nelson was helpless. This was his son's character.
Once he decided, it was difficult to change his mind.
He thought it was the best choice to let Jonas make a concession in this matter.
In view of Melinda's current condition, it was not appropriate for them to get involved in this matter at
all.
Queena was hopeless. She felt she had no choice but to call Melinda after hesitating for a long time.
What she could do now was to count on Jonas coming back home early to stop it happening.
Melinda went to bed very early these days due to her pregnancy reaction. In a daze, she heard the
sound of the phone ringing. She wanted to let Jonas answer the phone, but she didn't wake up until
she stretched her hand to the other side of the bed and felt a little cool.
"Mom."
Seeing that the person who called was Queena, Melinda picked up the phone. Then she put on her
shoes, ready to go to the study to look for Jonas.
"Linda, where do you live now?" Queena asked in concern. Hearing Melinda's voice, she realized that it
was late. She was a little annoyed at her impatience.
But the current situation made her too anxious to calm herself down.
"We just live in the apartment near the company. What happened?" Melinda asked as she stopped
putting on her shoes.
Her brain gradually started to move. Queena's call at late night must be for something.
"Linda, please ask Jonas to come back as soon as possible. His father is going to transfer thirty
percent of his shares to Jerry," Queena said in an anxious voice.
She sat in the living room of the Gu family, only she was left alone. It was like the last stubbornness in
her and her heart.
Melinda was also surprised to hear that, but then she distracted her attention.
"Jonas doesn't have those shares, right?" Melinda was not stupid. Listening to Queena's voice, she
could analyze some things.
"Right,"
Queena said. This was what she couldn't accept most. How much had Jonas done for Soaring Group?
Now he was only getting these for his hard work.
It was a big joke for everyone.
"Mom, why does he look down upon Jonas? What's wrong with Jonas? Is he inferior to Jerry?" Melinda
said angrily. She didn't care about the share at all, but she was still dissatisfied with the behavior of
Alston.
What kind of person Jerry was? He thought so highly of him, which was equivalent to destroying the
Kingdom established by Jonas.
"Probably it's because he's my child." When Queena said this, she sounded particularly desolate, and
even a little confused.
She had been living more than half of her life. It was at this time that she started to seriously consider
whether it was worth it or not.
Hearing Queena's words, Melinda felt sad and didn't know how to comfort her. In the end, both of them
were in silence.
"I'll tell Jonas." After a long silence, Melinda said slowly. As for these things, since Jonas didn't want
her to worry about them, she'd better let him solve them himself.
She was confident with her man.
"You are outside. Take care of yourselves," Queena said and then hung up the phone. If she was
young, she might rush over and quarrel with Alston, but now, she didn't want to do anything.
She felt tired after so many years.
No matter what excuses he had, she found herself against the will and refused to forgive him.
Holding the cellphone in her hand, Melinda was sitting on the bed in a daze for a long time. After she
knew this matter, she felt angry. If Jonas knew it, he would be very disappointed.
She suddenly wondered if she should tell these things to Jonas.
After dealing with all kinds of things in the study, Jonas came back to the bedroom and saw that scene.
Sitting on the bed with her arms around the knees, Melinda stared blankly at a point without a focus.
"Linda." Jonas called her name for several times. Melinda didn't come to her senses until Jonas felt
that she might have fallen asleep in such a weird gesture.
"Have you finished your work?" Melinda asked. Thinking that Jonas worked so hard for the company,
but his father had done such a terrible thing. She felt sorry for him.
"Yes. I have a lot of work to deal with about the company," Jonas said. He hugged Melinda tightly
without thinking too much. Maybe it was because he was too busy that he didn't have much time for
Melinda.
"There are so many people in the company. Why do you have to suffer so much alone? Don't you have
that Jerry with you now? Just let him do it," said Melinda. Jonas felt that there was something wrong
with Melinda, but he didn't say anything but smiled at her.
He still had some power in hand. Moving out of the Gu's mansion was not his concession. As for his
things, he would never give up.
Although he knew in his heart that his father had asked Jerry to deal with some important projects.
"I'm sorry. I'll keep that in mind,"
Jonas said obediently. But Melinda became angrier as she heard that. She did not know why she was
angry and how to vent it.
"Jonas,"
Melinda suddenly called his name. She looked serious. After a long pause, she asked, "Have you ever
thought about it? Is it worth it?"
His heart was devoted to the company, but it couldn't win her father's recognition. He lost to a suddenly
emerging person.
Everything seemed ironic to outsiders.
"Linda, is there anything you want to tell me?" Melinda had said so, and if Jonas could not see that
something was wrong, his feelings for her might be a joke.
Melinda pressed her lips together and got closer to Jonas.
"Mom just called and said that dad was going to transfer thirty percent of the shares to Jerry," Melinda
said in an upset tone. She thought that Jonas would be angry or what, but he was very calm.
He had been acting abnormally calm as usual. Noticing that Melinda was looking at him in confusion,
Jonas smiled and rubbed her nose, and said helplessly, "You're angry because of this, aren't you?"
"Of course." Melinda thought it wasn't worth it for Jonas. But his attitude made her feel that all her
anger was like a joke.
"Silly girl," said Jonas in a spoiled manner. He hugged Melinda tightly and then spoke out the reason.
"In fact, I had guessed that these things would happen long ago."
With psychological preparation, it was not strange when such thing happened.
"Okay, stop worrying about these things. You just need to take care of yourself and our baby. Mom
shouldn't tell you everything. Don't she know how stupid you are?"
said Jonas. Melinda stared at him angrily. Finally, helplessly, she felt that what he said was quite
reasonable.
In the end, with the comfort of Jonas, Melinda was slightly better. Although she had something hidden
in her heart, with the company of Jonas, she fell asleep.
When they woke up the next morning, Jonas already started preparing for work. Seeing this, Melinda
wore a look of disgust on her face again. How she hoped that Jonas was not an idiot and knew nothing
at all.
Seeing her facial expression, Jonas knew what Melinda was thinking about.
"Linda, don't you give me an early kiss?" Jonas said with a smile as he tied his tie. Hearing that,
Melinda walked over to Jonas, helping him with his tie, and then planted a kiss on his face.
"Don't work so hard. I will provide for you and the baby," Melinda said. She even felt that it was not a
bad idea to let Jonas stay at home. Since he had more potential to be a househusband, she would start
writing. It could be worth a small amount of money for her family every month.
Hearing this, Jonas was embarrassed and said nothing. He kissed again on her lips before leaving.
As soon as Jonas left, the entire home was empty. Melinda wanted to be more broad-minded, but she
called her father angrily in the end.
She told him what had happened recently over the phone, which confused Vern a little. At last, Melinda
said it three times without any logic. He finally got her point.
"The bastard is living in the Gu family. And Jonas's father is going to transfer his 30% shares to him,
seriously?"
Vern caught the key point and asked. Melinda nodded hard. Then she realized that her father couldn't
see her, so she said "Right".
"He doesn't seem to be such a person with no sense of propriety. There must be something hidden in
it," Vern said. He didn't know much about Alston, but he knew him a little.
The strangest thing was that Nelson did not intervene in this matter. There must be a story here.
"Mellie." Suddenly, her father called her name with a serious tone, which made Melinda hesitate. With a
blank look on her face, she answered. Then she heard her father speak very seriously, "You can go to
see how Emily is going on these two days."
He seriously doubted that Emily must be involved in this matter.
"But why?" Melinda asked in confusion.
This matter had nothing to do with Emily from beginning to end. It was just Jerry's own fault.
"Just go and check it,"
said Vern. He just felt that way but couldn't tell specifically.
Although Melinda did not understand why her father did so, she still sent people to investigate the case
of Emily in his way.
