Jerry left dejectedly, but his existence was like a thorn in Queena's heart. In her heart, she was now
unhappy with Alston, especially after she had just scolded Jerry for a few words, he spoke to stop her.
In her eyes, such behavior was a form of protection. No matter how excellent her son was, there was
no praise, let alone protection.
In her husband's eyes, her son was not as good as an illegitimate child. Queena felt that the blood all
over her body was a little frozen, which made her feel very cold.
The coldest thing was her heart that had already died.
However, Melinda was still angry with what Jerry had done to Jonas. She returned to her seat beside
Jonas and remained silent. But her calm expression made Jonas feel her anger.
Although Alston was in this family, he felt that he was disliked by all the people, and this feeling was so
real.
Crossing her arms over her chest, Queena stood aside and looked at him coldly. Nelson ignored the
affairs of these young people and drank his tea quietly.
She was wearing a purplish red dress, and her bright color was well controlled by her, and her aura
was much deeper.
"He is such a bad guy. Why do you still keep him by your side? Is it that you won't give up until he
destroyed Jonas and the whole Gu family?"
Queena was furious at Alston. She felt that she would explode if she didn't vent her anger.
What she said was not exaggerated. What Jerry had done all the time was to destroy Jonas. He didn't
play a positive role in the Soaring Group's affairs. Instead, he did a lot of damage, making Jonas clean
up a lot of mess.
"Jerry is a good boy, but he has been outside for too long," Alston said with a guilty conscience.
After all, he was his son, and he didn't want to judge too much. He felt a little guilty. He had always
thought that if Jerry could have grown up in the Gu family like Jonas, he must be very excellent now.
Although most of the time, Jerry's actions were not presentable, it was undeniable that he was smart.
Therefore, Alston also thought that Jerry was a smart man.
Seeing that Alston didn't answer, Queena became more furious. Soon she recalled that he had an
affair with another woman behind her back and had this wild child.
No woman could bear the fact that her husband cheated on her. Queena always felt that there was no
love between the two of them, and she could bear it. But at this time, when the mistress gave birth to
the child and had such a great threat to her child, the hatred in her heart was growing.
"A child raised by a bitch is disgusting no matter how hard it is transformed. Alston, if you hadn't fooled
around with women outside, you wouldn't have such a bastard,"
Queena said angrily, without her usual hostess's gentleness and elegance. At this moment, she was
just an ordinary woman and an angry wife.
Alston knew that he was wrong in this matter, and it was also his fault. Because of this matter, his
father had punished him a lot.
However, although Alston realized his mistake, he also felt that it had happened and could not be
changed.
He didn't ignore Queena's anger. Although the relationship between the couple was getting shallow, at
this time, Alston still sincerely apologized.
"I know it was my fault, but everything has happened. Your pursuit of these things now only makes
yourself more uncomfortable,"
Alston said. In his opinion, what he said was reasonable, but it meant something else to Queena. She
was so angry that her chest heaved sharply.
"What? Can't I say it? It has happened? Do you have any intention of stopping it at all? Many things
haven't happened yet. Can't I stop them?"
Queena said angrily. Although she was desperate about Alston, she was still disappointed at this time.
Jerry was just an illegitimate child, and Alston could easily get rid of him with a sum of money.
However, what Alston did was to make use of his last value. In the end, she didn't see the slightest
value of Jerry, but saw countless troubles, all for her child.
No mother didn't protect her child. Queena knew that she couldn't do anything else, so she just hoped
to help Jonas.
"I know I was wrong this time. I'm sorry." Alston didn't dare to continue to explain, but admitted his
mistake obediently.
Seeing the two people like this, Nelson thought they were likely to have a quarrel again. He didn't want
to stay any longer, so he asked Gavin to help him back to the bedroom.
On the other hand, Melinda looked at the two people in shock. She had been to the Gu's mansion for a
long time, but she had only seen Alston for a few times. Recently, she had seen him more and more.
On the contrary, he had come back because of Jerry.
So it was the first time that she saw the two people quarreling so fiercely. At this time, they didn't even
want to respect each other as usual.
Melinda looked at Jonas worriedly. She was afraid that he would feel bad. Anyway, they were his
parents.
However, the expression on Jonas's face was very calm. He was even indifferent to the scene in front
of him.
"Jon, are you okay?" In her opinion, Jonas was not good at expressing his emotions. Maybe he was
sad, but he didn't express it.
If Jonas knew what was on her mind, he would have no doubt about the saying that one would be silly
for three years once she was pregnant.
"I'm fine. Are you tired?" said Jonas. He had known clearly that his parents didn't get along well with
each other since he was young.
Therefore, he had always pursued a kind of feeling that they loved each other and protected each
other.
"No." Melinda looked at him suspiciously, and then clenched his fingers. Such a simple move made
Jonas feel warm.
"Let's go upstairs. Just ignore them." Holding her fingers, Jonas took her upstairs. Still looking at the
two people behind her with some worry, Melinda found that the two had already been immersed in a
quarrel.
Without any hesitation, Jonas took Melinda back to the bedroom belonged to the two of them.
Melinda sat on the bed, lost in thought. Seeing the relationship between Queena and Alston, she
always felt insecure.
Melinda couldn't help but grab Jonas's arm. The confusion in her eyes made Jonas feel sorry for her.
He touched her head and asked softly, "What's wrong?"
"Jonas, did mommy and daddy love each other when they were young?" Melinda asked in confusion,
and Jonas was also baffled by this question. After thinking for a while, he hesitated and said, "Maybe
yes."
He didn't know much about his parents' feelings. He just thought maybe they had loved each other, but
it didn't matter whether they loved each other or not now.
"What about you? Are you going to find another woman after I give birth to my baby and become old
like your dad?" Melinda asked seriously. She was deeply touched by the relationship between Alston
and his wife.
She didn't know much about love. It had always been the kind of plain but warm relationship between
her grandparents. In the end, she had suffered a lot from Jonas. She was the most unconfident about
love.
Hearing what Melinda said, Jonas sighed in his heart and felt a little helpless. He didn't expect that he
still couldn't give her a sense of security.
"Linda, I promise I won't be like my father. The education I received is the love between my grandpa
and grandma. Grandpa can guard her even after grandma is gone."
The feelings of the older generation were always touching. When Melinda heard this, she thought of
her grandparents and felt touched.
In fact, that was exactly what she envied all the time?
Maybe, she could realize that with Jonas. Even if one was not here, the other one would still keep the
love. Jonas seemed to be worried that Melinda still didn't believe him, so he said a lot.
He was a man who didn't know how to say sweet words. Every word he said now made Melinda feel
sincere.
She felt relieved and the smile at the corners of her mouth relaxed a lot. She nestled in the arms of
Jonas and felt the most real contact.
All the feelings seemed to have been settled when the two of them got along with each other.
"Well, I believe you." Then Melinda thought of the two couples downstairs and still felt worried.
"Are we really not going downstairs to have a look?" Melinda asked. She was still worried, but Jonas
didn't feel anything.
Parents are not children anymore. There are some things that need them to deal with by themselves. It
was meaningless for them to interfere.
What was more, Jonas could feel that there was no love between the two people. Since there was no
love between them, it seemed that it was meaningless to argue with each other anymore.
"It doesn't matter. It's good for them to quarrel." Holding Melinda in his arms, Jonas swore to himself
that he would protect her and not let her see this.
He hoped that what Melinda saw was all about the beauty of the world.
Thinking that it was not a good thing for one to suppress her feelings for a long time, Melinda thought it
might be a good thing to quarrel and let it go. So she nodded in agreement.
The quarrel downstairs was faintly spread upstairs. While accompanying Melinda, Jonas also secretly
blamed all this on Jerry.
If he hadn't appeared, all this would not have happened.
