Melinda thought that she might have overestimated herself. How could Jonas care about her at all, especially since Emily was already accompanying him?

'Jerk!'

Melinda cursed in her heart.

"You still look pale," Queena said. "The doctor also said that you are too weak. You need to rest."

Queena felt Melinda's forehead to check her temperature. It felt funny because her forehead was still covered in gauze.

"Right, have a good rest," Nelson also said.

Both Nelson and Queena felt guilty for Melinda's injury, even though Jonas was the reason for it.

"Mom, Grandpa, please don't worry so much. I'm fine. After I eat, I could probably run around the hospital," Melinda joked.

Melinda didn't want them to blame themselves for Jonas's mistakes. She smiled so that Nelson and Queena would calm down. She wished she could squeeze her own face in the dark so that she could get some color back in her face.

"If you run like that, people will think you escaped form the top floor."

Queena and Melinda were now familiar with each other. They teased a lot. The top floor was for the patients who were mentally ill.

Nelson and Queena accompanied Melinda in her ward at the hospital. Her head was still hurt. She badly needed more rest. After dinner, Queena urged Nelson to go home and that she could handle taking care of Melinda.

When Jonas got home, Gavin told him that Nelson said that he wasn't allowed to visit Melinda. Instead, he should just stay in the company for the following days.

There were always tasks that awaited him at the company. Nelson troubled him on purpose and assigned him a lot of tasks. This was all exhausting for Jonas.

In the company, Jonas was very anxious. He couldn't stand William. He called Nelson three times a day to ask him when he could visit Melinda.

Melinda wasn't badly hurt, but Nelson still wanted her to have an unbothered rest. He refused all her requests for returning home, no matter what kind of excuse she had.

The next morning, all the senior executives of Soaring Group were in a sullen mood. They learned that Jonas, Soaring Group's CEO, was claimed to be a wife beater.

The company seemed to be in trouble. Everyone was stressed and in a bitter mood.

William didn't hesitate barging in. The stock was continuously falling. The company's entrance was already surrounded by the media.

Aron also took advantage of this chance and wanted to give Jonas a hard time during the shareholder's meeting.

"Because of our CEO's private affairs, the company's image is damaged! Out stocks are falling! Our CEO really needs to give us an explanation!" Aron said during the meeting.

He directly attacked Jonas. Only Aron had the guts to say those in front of other people.
