Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 121

Jonas was sensible and could see things clearly. He understood that he could neither live with Melinda nor stay away from her. He didn't want to lose her. Jonas felt that the contract was pointless and therefore, shredded it into pieces.

He crumpled the pieces into a ball and was about to discard it into the trash can but decided against it. He put the paper safely in the innermost side of the safe, where no one could see.

It was too dangerous to throw it in the trash can as people could easily find it and it would create unnecessary problems.

Jonas shook his head and laughed at his fate. He thought about how his life had changed in a short time. He had done many unimaginable things for Melinda. Sometimes, when he looked at himself in the mirror, he saw a different person staring at him.

Jonas was a changed man but he loved who he had turned into. Melinda had reshaped him and gave a new meaning to his life.

Queena and Yulia walked to the door to see Emily off. The smile on Queena's face completely disappeared when she saw the car leave.

"Aunt Queena, are you okay?"

Yulia asked, feigning concern. But Queena was furious and ignored her tone.

"Yes,"

Queena mumbled. Her hatred for Melinda reached another level. She was Jonas's mother and the best hostess of the Gu family. She hated Melinda's attitude.

"How dare Melinda disrespect you? She was rude even though she knew that Emily was your guest. Poor Emily was too upset. She is always sweet and endures Melinda's torture without complaining," Yulia said, shaking her head.

Although Queena remained silent, Yulia wanted to trigger her anger. She didn't want Queena to forget everything and move on.

"Emily is a good girl. Your brother..."

Queena gritted her teeth and blew out a loud breath. She remembered that Emily was close to becoming her daughter-in-law but Nelson meddled at the last minute and got her son married to Melinda.

"I don't know what Melinda had done to make Grandpa force Jonas to marry her. She has cast a spell on him and he seems to listen to her every word."

Yulia shook her head and smiled sadly. She never missed an opportunity to put Melinda down.

"Your Grandpa is old and has lost his mind," Queena grunted.

She felt that he had ruined her son's life. Nelson didn't mention anything about the relationship the two families shared. No one knew the reason why Nelson wanted Jonas to marry Melinda. Therefore, everyone assumed that Melinda was evil.

"Melinda is arrogant because she has Grandpa's support. Aunt Queena, I think it's best if we stay away from her."

Yulia looked around and whispered cautiously, which annoyed Queena.
