"Jonas, why are you investigating Alan in private?"

"Something doesn't seem right with Alan's story. I would advise you not to invest yourself too much on this relationship," said Jonas coldly.

He really didn't take into account Yulia's feelings or care that she had found out that he was investigating her boyfriend. Furthermore, reports from his investigations indicated that something was wrong with Aner Electronic Technology Company, but he didn't have sufficient time to dig deeper and pin point the issue, so he couldn't get any useful information within such a short time.

"Jonas, he is my boyfriend, my future husband for goodness sake, you can't treat him like a common criminal."

Yulia was head over heels in love with Alan and whatever Alan did or said was law. So she didn't like that her brother was slandering his name and didn't even want to give him time to explain himself.

"I am not trying to be unnecessarily mean to you or him," Jonas said indifferently.

'It's such a tragedy to have such a brother who handles sensitive issues so casually,' thought Melinda who had been sitting beside Jonas, quietly listening to their exchange. She felt pity for Yulia.

"Jonas, I will not allow you to do this to my future husband anymore. I want you to stop the investigation immediately."

Yulia was so angry that she had completely forgotten that Jonas didn't like threats. Her warning had no effect on him at all.

"Yulia, you have to realize that you are a member of the Gu family. That means that you get to enjoy all the honor and benefits that comes with the Gu name, but you also have to be responsible and protect the name. You can't go picking up any Tom, Dick and Harry and bring garbage to this house."

While listening to their confrontation, Melinda realized that Jonas must been very polite to her, considering that he was now unapologetically referring to Alan as garbage.

"How can you be so rude and abuse Alan? Jonas, I will only marry Alan and no one else as long as I am alive. You can't stop us."

Melinda looked at Yulia, and her determined look reminded Melinda of when she was blindly in love.

"Whatever."

The atmosphere was suddenly tense as Jonas dismissed his sister's concerns and abruptly ended the discussion. Yulia stomped out of the living room and went back to her bedroom throwing her belongings haphazardly into her suitcases in anger.

Everyone in the Gu's mansion was shocked by the dramatic scene. When they saw Yulia struggling with her luggage and stuffing them in the car, Jonas said nothing, but with closer examination, Melinda noticed that it looked as if he was thinking his sister was making a "stupid" decision.

Feeling sorry for Alan and wronged by her brother, Yulia went to Alan's home with her luggage. The moment she saw Alan, she cried,

"Alan."

"What happened, my little Princess? Why are you in such a state? Come on, don't cry."

Alan gently rubbed his thumb across Yulia's cheek, trying to wipe her tears which were trickling like a waterfall, before removing his handkerchief and wiping her face. Then he tagged her hand by the elbow and pulled her to the house. Yulia cried more when he showed her kindness and told him everything that had happened, in between hiccups and wailing. It was a wonder that Alan actually understood what she was saying. She, however, did not inform him that Jonas was carrying out an investigation on him.
