Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Perry's plan to hook up with Melinda had completely failed. On top of that, he had also wasted a lot of money.

"Miss Gu, when will you be taking the next step? Just so you know, I'm starting to get a bit low on cash. I barely have anything left to spend."

Perry was used to do this kind of thing. Although he was a generous person, he was not willing to do specific tasks, especially when it was difficult to do. Quick and easy rewards were what he preferred the most.

Every time he cooperated with Yulia, he would get at least ten grand. Perry expected that she would pay him more since he knew how rich she was. What was more, he was enjoying himself because Melinda was really quite beautiful.

It was definitely a win for him since he was getting paid to flirt with her.

"Go find something else to do! I don't need you anymore. Just so you know, you've done a terrible job!" Yulia sneered.

"Miss Gu, no matter how bad I am, I can't possibly be worse than you. And don't think I don't know that Melinda is your sister-in-law,"

Perry said, his tone low and threatening. When he first agreed to help Yulia, he was not aware of her relation with Melinda. It just so happened that he got so annoyed that he couldn't help but complain to his friends. That was when he found out about Melinda's identity. When he found out, his forehead was beading with cold sweat.

Seducing Jonas's woman? He might as well have been digging his own grave for doing something like that!

'Shit. How did he know about that?' Yulia thought, feeling cornered all of a sudden.

"I'll give you 200,000. No one must know about this."

"I expect you to transfer the money as soon as possible."

Back then, Perry was the one who was always making calls because Yulia was the one who had the upper hand. The tables had now turned since she had got caught by him. To make sure that nothing would go wrong, she decided to pay him a lot of money without a second thought.

In her world, there was nothing money couldn't solve.

As the days went by, Nelson's birthday was getting closer. It was an understatement to say that it was an important event—absolutely nothing should go wrong.

The Gu family had the highest status in A City. It went without saying that Nelson's birthday celebration was an incredibly important event. All the powerful businessmen in A City clamored to get invited.

An invitation reflected greatly of their status symbol. Even if they couldn't get a chance to talk with Nelson personally, being invited was already a big deal.

The banquet was to be held in the Gu family's main house. Nelson gave Melinda free rein and allowed her to prepare for it. She would do it with Gavin's assistance, and Jonas's help.

For Jonas, the most important thing was to confirm the guest list. Melinda had little idea about these social relationships. The whole Gu family felt nervous as they prepared for Nelson's birthday banquet.

Melinda held onto her optimism. When people arranged a banquet like this, they would make sure it was luxurious. But Melinda behaved differently. She wanted to prepare a warm banquet.

Nelson adored her more than anyone else. He always thought that Melinda's choice was definitely the best one. And Jonas had always felt that his grandfather favored Melinda more.
