Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 59

"Didn't you go shopping? Why are you back so soon? I wasn't expecting you back until later."

Sitting on the sofa, Yulia was immersed in her own thoughts, full of fear. She was worried about what she saw and didn't want to talk about it. When Nelson walked into the living room with Gavin's help, he saw Yulia alone.

Nelson knew that she and Melinda went out together, and they had gone shopping. He hoped that they could get along well with each other, so he encouraged them to spend time together.

Gavin helped Nelson sit down on the sofa, poured him a cup of tea, and then retreated to a corner. Yulia was still in a daze until Nelson put the cup heavily on the tea table. He startled her to get her attention and show his authority.

"Ah. Grandpa. I am back,"

Yulia greeted him nervously. Her hands locked together and her eyes were darting around. She didn't dare to look into Nelson's eyes. She knew he would be upset with her and didn't know how best to handle it.

"What are you doing? I asked you something, but you didn't answer me. Didn't you go out with Melinda?" He was visibly agitated and unsure of why on earth she would be back so soon. "Why did you come back alone? Where is Melinda?"

Nelson asked unhappily. Yulia's eyes were wide open when she heard Nelson ask about Melinda. She had run away and was totally unaware of what was going on now. Things had started to get bad quickly and she thought it best to get away.

Besides, she didn't think Jonas could defeat the three men. There were some guys that started bullying Melinda. Jonas came to help and things escalated. She was fearful and fled.

"I...decided to leave. I didn't want to stay. I felt a little uncomfortable so I came back first. Melinda is fine. She happened to meet a friend, so they went shopping together,"

stuttered Yulia. Though Nelson was old, he was wise, so she dared not look at him at all. He could sense her lying and didn't like it one bit.

Nelson heard the fear in her voice and snorted. He didn't believe that Yulia was telling the truth. She was lying and it was obvious. He knew Melinda well. If Yulia was really sick, Melinda wouldn't go shopping with her friend on her own.

"Your sister-in-law went shopping with a friend. Is the friend more important than you?" he questioned her more. Pressuring her to tell the truth.

Yulia was totally confused and took it for granted that Nelson was blaming Melinda for not taking good care of her. At this thought, she could not help feeling happy in her heart.

"Grandpa, Melinda also has her own friends. I shouldn't bother her," she said coyly.

Yulia pretended to be annoyed and blamed Melinda. She was trying to win his favor by throwing Melinda under the bus.

"Yulia, do you think I'm a fool?" Nelson barked angrily. He was beginning to lose his patience. "Tell me where she is at!" he demanded.

There was anger in Nelson's voice. Yulia finally realized she'd best tell the truth and she stammered, "She was stopped by a group of people. And Jonas appeared to protect her. So... I came back. I didn't want to be there. Things were getting heated so I left."

Hearing this, Nelson was almost speechless. He couldn't believe that Yulia came back after she saw that Melinda was bullied. He was angry with Yulia and her selfishness.

"Gavin, please send someone to help Jonas as soon as possible," he ordered.
