A City was a commercial city with buildings tall and vast in every direction you turned your head to. Located at the center of the busy district was Soaring Group's headquarters. Their enormous building stood out for every citizen to see, towering over the people as if to demonstrate its symbol of power that made everyone do whatever it took to be part of the company.

The media currently crowded the entrance of Soaring Group's building. They were all waiting excitedly as a car entered the driveway with Jonas in it.

The car screeched to a halt just as the security stepped out in front to make a path for Jonas the moment he got out of the car. His cold eyes surveyed the surroundings carefully.

Straightening out his suit, he strutted his way into the company while cameras flashed from all directions as his back turned against them. Even if they didn't get particular news about him, being able to get a decent photo of Jonas was good enough material for the media.

They seemed to be a bit too lively this morning. The security guards soon attempted to clear up the area while the others dealt with them, forcing the media to delete the photos of Jonas that they had managed to take.

The reporters who were officially invited eagerly proceeded to enter Soaring Group, receiving envious looks from those who had been left behind.

Nelson allowed the PR department to fully cooperate with Jonas as he held a press conference with the condition that he should be able to explain the circulating rumor and defend Melinda.

The PR manager stood curtly next to Jonas while he discreetly reported the current situation to him.

"Boss, here's the script for you to review while you rest in the lounge," he informed Jonas. Jonas took a quick glance over to the piece of parchment the manager had taken out from his bag. He ignored him and gave him an unconcerned look. "No need."

The script was too formal.

At exactly nine o'clock, the press conference finally began. Back at home, Melinda did her best to control herself, but she wasn't able to resist changing the channel of the TV to the live broadcast of the interview. As soon as she flipped the switch, a familiar handsome face on the screen greeted her.

The camera zoomed into Jonas. Although his solemn expression looked like an old official, his appearance looked flawless.

Melinda stared dreamily at the screen as she murmured to herself, "He looks much more handsome in person."

The reporters began to ask the routine questions. When the subject regarding Emily finally came, the room was met with dead silence.

"The purpose for this press conference today is to inform everyone that I am now married and my wife's name is Melinda Mo."

Jonas did not need to move close to the microphone since his voice was loud and clear enough for everyone to hear. Instead, he simply crossed his hands and rested them on the table.

Jonas's voice was deep and powerful, and Melinda even saw him smiling.

A lot of comments soon erupted from Emily's fans. Everyone wanted to know who this person named Melinda was.

Even though some of the reporters tried to extract information about her identity, Jonas was not willing to reveal anything.

After the press conference ended, the internet was in an uproar. Emily's staff were completely caught off guard over Jonas's stunt. The PR department held an urgent meeting and decided to hire someone to take control over the public's opinion.
