Chapter 99 Traffic Jam (2/2)

”Okay. The launch event is a success. Don't worry about the follow-up. I've arranged a driver to send you home. Don't stay here anymore.”

The editor found it funny of her like this. Melinda had always been a gentle and elegant lady in front of others, and she was rarely so d

then said what happened this morning.

”Grandpa, it's my fault. I made such a mistake.”

Yulia said with guilt. Hearing this, Melinda remembered that there was indeed a slight cry of pain by Jonas's side when she called him. Melinda didn't expect that it was Yulia.

But the time didn't matter if Jonas arrived at the party or because of Emily.

”Sorry, Melinda, I don't know my brother is busy today.”

With tears in Yulia's eyes, she looked so innocent and sincere.

”It's not your fault. You don't need to apologize.”

”All right, all right. I'm confused by what you said. Jonas, tell me, what's going on? Why don't you go to Melinda's new book show?”

It took Nelson a long time to figure out what was going on, but he was clear that Jonas didn't take part in the new book launch event.

”Melinda, didn't you say that you would let him be the mysterious guest? Will it be a problem if he doesn't show up? Do you want me to call the media?”

Nelson quickly thought about other things.

Jonas felt guilty at the thought of it. After all, it was a publicity stunt.

”I'm fine, Kent helped me.”

As soon as he heard the name of Kent, Jonas's face became pale. But he knew that he deserved it, so he could do nothing but keep all his unhappiness in his heart.

He had to explain the reason why he didn't go to the press conference to his grandpa. If he tells the truth, Nelson will be furious and Melinda will be unhappy. That was not what he wanted to see.

”There's a traffic jam on the way. It's too late when I arrived.”

Said Jonas. He was stuck in traffic because there was something wrong with Emily's car. But he hadn't thought that he would turn around and leave. In fact, he was just trying to help.

Hearing his explanation, a mocking smile appeared on Melinda's face. She thought, 'humph! Jonas is really good at lying!'

Melinda didn't know what exactly had happened, but she knew it definitely had something to do with Emily.
