Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 104

Melinda walked into the guest bedroom with a set of pajamas for Jonas. Mary was busy in the kitchen and didn't notice her. Melinda lost her cool when she saw Jonas lying on the bed like a dead corpse. The smell of alcohol made her sick in the stomach.

Melinda fetched a basin of water from the washroom. She removed Jonas's clothes and carefully wiped his body. She was exhausted by the time she changed his clothes.

Melinda blew out a loud breath as she glanced at Jonas. He looked better but Melinda was sweating profusely. She angrily threw the wet towel on Jonas's face.

Jonas frowned. He took the towel from his face and threw it aside.

"Are you annoyed? It is I who should be annoyed after all this drama,"

Melinda scoffed. She threw Jonas's clothes into the laundry basket outside and went back to her room. After making sober tea, Mary walked into the guest bedroom. She glanced at Jonas and smiled in relief.

She was happy that Jonas and Melinda cared about each other despite their quarrels.

Jonas felt a piercing pain in his head when he woke up the next morning. He rubbed his temples and felt as if his head was about to explode.

He squinted his eyes and glanced at his watch. It was only six in the morning. He knitted his eyebrows as the bedroom looked strange to him. Jonas tried recalling the events of the previous night.

"Ah!" he groaned.

Jonas looked at his clothes. He breathed a sigh of relief as he realized that he was in his pajamas.

"Mr. Gu, you are awake. I have made some tea. It will cure your hangover."

Mary was preparing breakfast. She quickly gave Jonas a cup of tea and went back to work. Jonas took a sip of the tea and soon felt better.

He walked to his bedroom to wash his face but the door was locked from inside.

Not wanting to disturb Melinda at this hour, Jonas returned to his bedroom and took a long shower until he was relaxed.

Nelson had been thinking about Jonas's connection with Emily and couldn't sleep well at night. He felt sorry for Melinda. Nelson's health was deteriorating and he wasn't sure how long he could protect Melinda.

Unable to deal with the confusion and turmoil, Nelson went to play Tai Chi in the yard. Jonas walked out in time and Nelson immediately stopped him.

"Don't you want to tell me what happened yesterday?" he asked, taking a deep breath.

He plopped on the stone bench and looked at Jonas.

Jonas studied Nelson's face and saw the disappointment in his eyes. Nelson adored Jonas but he hated his relationship choices.

"I'm sorry, Grandpa. I won't get drunk again."

He thought that his grandfather was angry because he
