Chapter 290 A Meeting (1/2)
The more Alston was satisfied with Jerry, the more disappointed he was with Jonas. Queena had contacted Jerry before, and she knew him well. Now seeing him so humble, she felt something was wrong.
”Linda, let's go back.”
No one said a word. Jonas walked upstairs to the bedroom with his arm around Melinda's waist. If he didn't get along well with his father in the past, he usually went to the small villa where he stayed.
But the situation was different today. Jerry stood there like a tortoise that had taken over a territory, he would give up on the territory if he left at any time.
Jonas was so proud that he wouldn't allow him to do such a thing.
Queena heard this, being afraid that his action would piss off Alston, she explained, ”Linda is pregnant. She hasn't had a rest this day. Take her to the bedroom to have a rest.”
Melinda immediately pretended to be a little tired. Alston didn't say anything, but Jerry looked thoughtfully at her lower abdomen.
He lurked as a sinister viper, which made her flesh creep and she sped up her pace.
In the end, it was Jonas that followed her steps to leave. They went back to the bedroom upstairs. The moment the door was closed, Melinda breathed a sigh of relief.
The atmosphere just now was really depressing.
She took a look at Jonas and saw the disappointment and indignation on his face. She knew that what his father had done had hurt Jonas's heart.
Melinda held the hand of Jonas, and smiled to his perplexed look.
He said her smile could cure all his pain. The tenderness in her eyes was like a clear spring water to calm his restless heart. Jonas reached out and rubbed Melinda's head.
”I'm fine.”
Melinda knew him well. She knew that there was still a huge knot in the heart of Jonas. But she was not clear about the situation now, and what Jonas had done in the living room just now was a little impulsive.
”Jerry... Anyway, he is your father's child. It's natural for him to come back,” Melinda said after she hesitated for a while, and when she saw the gloom on Jonas's face again, she knew that he must have thought a lot.
She patted his hands and looked at him with an innocent look in her eyes. She wanted him to hear what she said.
”I was surprised too.” The entire family had known about Jerry's identity, but Alston didn't take him back until now. There must be something they didn't know.
”He just doesn't trust me,” Jonas said. He was hurt by his father. He had been working hard in the company to root out Aron's power. And over the years, the power in the Soaring Group had been transferred to Jonas and his father.
