Chapter 260 Meddle Too Much (1/2)

”I've been busy with these things every day and seldom have time to relax. Let's dance together.” Jonas looked at Melinda with a smile, which seldom appeared on his face. Many people felt that they were dazzled when they saw his tenderness.

Emily was like a third wheel. She clenched her teeth in anger as she saw their interaction.

Half of Melinda's body was leaning on Jonas, and now the half-bent man stood in front of her. The smile in his eyes made her feel that she was the happiest person in the world.

”Okay.” Melinda put her hand on the hand of Jonas. The two of them smiled happily, and his hands carefully fell on the waist of her and led her to the dance floor in front of them.

Both of them entered the hall, which attracted many people's attention. Many people left a space for them to dance. Melinda seldom danced, and so did Jonas. They had danced no more than three times, but they had an indescribable tacit understanding.

It seemed that they knew what to do as long as the other was there.

Emily stood in the same place and was like a joke. Everyone paid attention to the two dancing people on the dancing floor, and their eyes fell on her, too.

Their sympathy and disdain were like branded in Emily's heart which made her feel so depressed.

The elegant smile on her face was gone, and the people surrounding her dispersed, avoiding her like a plague.

Emily had been to the upper class for a long time, but she didn't know how to feel when she was the one in the center of the vortex.

She wanted to give vent to it, but she couldn't. She wanted to hide her feelings, but she felt uncomfortable.

Because Melinda was pregnant, the music tonight was soothing. Even the dancing steps gave out a sense of ease and elegance.

However, Melinda, one of the protagonists in these people's eyes, began to drift away.

The tacit dance steps of the beginning were gone. She stepped on the shoes of Jonas now and then. Fortunately, she was not wearing high-heeled shoes today. Otherwise, the consequences could be imagined.

”What's wrong? Did Emily say something to you?” Jonas asked anxiously as his smile faded.

Just now, when he saw Emily standing next to Melinda, he began to worry that she would make up stories again.

Just now, seeing that Melinda looked normal, he felt secretly relieved. Now he realized that perhaps it was not as simple as he thought.

Looking at his nervous appearance, Melinda couldn't help smiling. She hid all her worries in the bottom of her heart and gave a smile to Jonas.

”It's okay. I don't trust her now. Not even a punctuation,” Melinda joked. She bowed her head and looked down at her toes, without looking at Jonas in the eyes.
