Chapter 220 Coaxing A Child (1/2)

With a spring smile on his face, Jonas walked to Vern holding Melinda in his arms. However, the smile on Melinda's face was unnatural and she was somewhat resistant to these contact.

”Come and have a look.” There was a Chinese chess game in front of Vern. Melinda watched for a while and voiced out her opinions, a little nervous.

She dared not to look up at her father's eyes, feeling a little alienated.

Suddenly, her hand was clenched and she fell into a warm embrace. Jonas smiled at her and said, ”Good. You're not too stupid.”

”You!” Melinda didn't feel the deep love in his words. Instead, she could feel the irony. She stared at Jonas angrily, but she looked more coquettish.

Her charming look almost lured Jonas. But since Melinda's father was here, it was improper to make fun of her. Therefore, Jonas pretended to be calm, and tried to analyze the current situation based on the understanding of Melinda.

Obviously, he was more thorough than Melinda. Hearing his analysis, Vern was overjoyed. He wished he could play another round with Jonas on the spot.

”Dad, you haven't recovered yet. Please don't bother yourself anymore. I will come to visit you more with Linda.” As Jonas spoke, he tightened his arms, making Melinda push hard against his chest.

But the man in front of her didn't even move a little bit, and the smile on his face was getting bigger and bigger.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If Jonas didn't seize this opportunity to get closer to Melinda, he wouldn't be called Jonas.

”Okay. Then we will play it next time.” Vern knew that he should take care of his own body. Since Jonas knew much, no matter what he said, he would listen to him and talk to him.

It was the first time that they got along well with each other like this since Melinda married Jonas.

”I'm good with Linda. Don't worry, Dad,” Jonas answered as Vern asked about their relationship. Vern's impression of the interaction between the two was still vague. He still remembered the scene that Melinda was chasing after Jonas.

”Linda.” When Jonas said this, he didn't get any response from Melinda. He looked down and found that she was absent-minded. He raised his mouth slightly and looked a little playful.

In a corner where Vern could not see, his thin lips slowly approached Melinda's neck. Noticing the quivering appearance of the woman beside him, he said jokingly, ”What are you thinking about? I called you and you did not answer.”

”What's wrong?” With a confused look on her face, Melinda looked at Jonas and frowned. Melinda felt something wet around her neck, and her face flushed immediately.

”Nothing.” Jonas touched her head with great affection. He liked to carry her around like a obedient pet.
