When seeing Melinda wearing the clothes he had chosen, Jonas was extremely proud and satisfied.
He even wanted to pick clothes for her himself from now on.
The dress was designed in loose style, so it was hard to tell that Melinda was pregnant. With a soft
hand covering her belly, she trembled violently.
It was said that pregnant people are more sensitive. Now, Melinda completely believed it. Her face
suddenly turned red, and she was as shy as a strawberry juice.
Looking at the scene, Jonas felt a thrill of excitement. But when he thought of the baby under his palm,
he held it back with all his strength.
"Linda, I'm going to take a bath." Jonas's voice was so hoarse that it made Melinda's face even redder.
Her neck was burning. She walked aside quickly, lowered her head and nodded.
She just felt that the temperature around her began to rise, but after Jonas left, she felt that the air was
much cooler. She just felt that there was an impulse in Jonas's body after that moment.
Jonas washed for a long time. When Jonas walked out of the bathroom, he saw that Melinda had fallen
asleep on the bed. Her face was still flushing. It seemed that she was drunk, which made her much
lovelier.
In the face of Melinda, all Jonas wanted to do was to stay with her anytime and anywhere.
Melinda was getting better, and at the same time, Jerry felt the crisis. Since the proposal incident last
time, he hadn't seen Stacy for a long time. Every time the call was interrupted by David, which made
Jerry angry from embarrassment.
Alston often asked him about the things between him and Stacy, which made Jerry panic. He was
afraid that the change between him and Stacy would be found by Alston.
With a cigarette in his right hand and the phone in his left hand, Jerry clenched the cigarette and slowly
dialed the number.
The ashtray was full of cigarette ashes and butts at this time. Because of this, Jerry's voice was very
hoarse, as if he had a heavy cold.
He tried to make Stacy feel sorry for him in this way, and then she would naturally find a way to get
them out of the current predicament.
"Stacy, I miss you so much!" There seemed to be a cry in Jerry's voice, and the sincerity was touching.
Stacy had been trapped at home by David during this period of time. He had given her the mobile
phone, but he would never let her see Jerry anyway.
As soon as Stacy heard Jerry's voice, she couldn't help bursting into tears.
"Jerry, I..." Stacy didn't know what to do. During this period, she had been making various excuses to
prevent Jerry from knowing his father's objection to their relationship.
Little did she know that Jerry had known all the reasons, but he was so happy to play dumb.
"Stacy, let's meet tomorrow, okay? Even if you don't like me anymore and don't want to marry me, you
should give me a closure," Jerry said. The injury in Jerry's tone made Stacy feel even much guiltier.
"Jerry, you are the one I want to marry most. Don't overthink about it, okay?"
Stacy said pleadingly. She was really afraid that Jerry would give up on her because of that, and she
would break down.
She considered if she should tell Jerry about the situation here, and then they would try to find a way to
fight against her father.
"Stacy, why don't you want to see me all the time? From that day on..." It was difficult for Jerry to say
these words out. Finally, he began to sob again, as if afraid of mentioning them.
Stacy knew clearly that he had made a careful proposal, but in the end she broke her promise.
"I'm sorry. I did that for some reason. Please trust me. I'll see you tomorrow. I promise!"
Saying that, Stacy's eyes darkened and she was thinking what to do if her father didn't agree.
After a long silence, Jerry said reluctantly, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
He seemed to be afraid to wait any longer, and all this was because of what happened that day. Stacy
had thousands of words to say but only said one sentence in the end. "I will explain this scene to you in
the future."
They were speechless for a while. Stacy also missed the happy days they had together before. In the
end, Jerry hung up the phone silently. Before hanging up, he told her the address where they met the
next day and said that he would wait for her.
Actually, when David asked Stacy to use these communications tools, his men were monitoring them,
so he got the news as soon as possible.
He knew that Stacy would definitely find a way, so he waited patiently for her to come to him.
As for Stacy, she also knew clearly that it would be impossible for her to leave the house without
David's consent.
"I'm going to see Jerry." Stacy came straight to the point, as if she was talking to a stranger. Hearing
her words, David could not help but feel a little hurt in his heart.
His daughter was on the opposite side of him for another man.
And her attitude was cold.
"I have said that I don't agree with your marriage. You'd better give up," said David, dissatisfied with
Jerry. He thought that such a calculating person didn't deserve his daughter at all.
Or, David couldn't make sure whether Jerry loved Stacy or just used her.
If he just took advantage of Stacy, she would be very sad.
"Dad, why don't you agree us to be together? You weren't like this before," Stacy asked in confusion. It
was hard for her to understand that, but from Jerry's words, it seemed that his nominal brother worried
that he would take over the family property and stopped him.
But Jerry was not interested in the Gu family at all!
"That's because I didn't know what kind of person he was before. Now that I know, I certainly can't let
you marry him and suffer," said David, looking at Stacy with a complicated expression.
Stacy didn't think her father was willing to tell her the truth at this time, so she was very angry and
finally stubbornly said, "I want to see him."
"You have no idea what kind of person he is!" shouted David as he suddenly became very loud. His
daughter, Stacy, had always been the apple of his eye. She had never been shouted like this before.
Her eyes turned red and she stood still.
David also realized that he had been too emotional, but he felt bad when he saw his daughter's
stubborn look.
"Jerry is a man who would do anything to achieve his own goal. He came back this time in order to
revenge the Gu family. Do you know that he just takes advantage of you?"
Although these words were cruel to Stacy, it was still necessary to tell her the truth, so that she would
fully understand who Jerry was.
Stacy didn't take his words seriously. But when he spoke out the evil things Jerry had done, Stacy's
face still changed.
"Sweetheart, think about it. Won't this person who achieved his goal by all means use you?" said David
in all earnestness. He was somewhat relieved to see that Stacy finally listened to him.
"I don't know all these things," Stacy said slowly. She was still in shock.
For Jerry, Stacy also had a new perspective. At the same time, she came up with a plan.
"Dad, I don't know what kind of person he is. He's not like that in front of me," Stacy said with distress
and embarrassment. In front of her, Jerry was like a bright boy. How could his father say something like
that? There must be something wrong.
"He has been concealing it from you all the time. It's normal that you don't know. Now that you know
who he is, do you still want to be with him?"
asked David seriously. He hoped that his daughter could distinguish right from wrong. He didn't want
her to be deceived by a hypocrite like Jerry anymore.
Stacy's eyes were rolling, but she didn't look into his father's eyes. At this time, she suddenly came up
with a good idea. Perhaps, she could take this opportunity to go out to see Jerry!
"I... I don't know," Stacy said sadly. Although David could not bear to see that, he still decided to end
this relationship as soon as possible. "You go to see Jerry today and break up with him. There are
many men who are better than him. Don't be silly anymore."
Stacy's eyes brightened and the pain on her face did not decrease. After a long time, she nodded hard
as if she had made a great decision. Then she said, "Okay, I promise you."
"Good girl."
David patted Stacy on the head with delight. Then he winked at his assistant, as if telling him that he
didn't need to restrict Stacy's actions now.
Stacy did not leave in a hurry, but went back to the bedroom. She quickly hid a lot of precious things in
her bag and threw some unnecessary things on the ground. The sound from the room, however, was
taken as the pain for her to break up by David.
When everything was ready, Stacy appeared in front of David with a calm face. Just now in the room,
she had told all the situations to Jerry. Jerry kept on feeling sorry for her, wanting to see her as soon as
possible and blame himself.
"Father, I am going to see him," Stacy said indifferently as if she no longer had any feelings for Jerry.
She just pretended to be ruthless in front of David.
As expected, David was very satisfied. He nodded and said, "Remember to go home early."
Stacy said nothing more and left home directly. David called Jonas to inform him of the news.
"Actually, I should thank you. Without you, I wouldn't have known what kind of person Jerry is. If I really
let Stacy marry him, I don't know how much hardship she would have suffered," David said as he was
glad that he made it.
And Jonas also felt lucky that David was willing to believe him at that time. Otherwise, no matter what
he said and did, it would be in vain.
