Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 68 Countryside

At night, the lights were still on in the Gu's mansion.

Jonas returned home, utterly exhausted, after a day of social engagement. When he walked in, the hallway was eerily silent and Gavin informed that Nelson had gone to the countryside.

"Mr. Nelson told me that he was going to visit his old friend. Mrs. Gu is accompanying him, so you don't have to worry about him."

Gavin smiled and told everything that Nelson wanted him to convey. Nelson wanted Jonas to understand how kind and sweet Melinda was.

"Why has Melinda taken Grandpa with her? Doesn't she know that he is too weak to travel? Grandpa is always kind to her but she's being plain selfish,"

Yulia grunted in annoyance. She turned around, and her heart leapt to her throat when she met Jonas's cold eyes that were blazing at her.

She quickly closed her mouth, swallowed loudly, and turned away.

"Err... Am I... am I wrong, Jonas?"

Yulia asked nervously. Jonas glared at her and then looked at Gavin.

"Who else have gone with him?"

"Two drivers and two groups of bodyguards in disguise."

Nelson was popular in A City, and he usually stayed in the mansion. He would be armed by bodyguards every time he went out.

"Hasn't the medical team gone with him?" Jonas frowned.

Although Gavin was always cautious, Jonas couldn't stop worrying about his grandfather.

"One of the drivers is a doctor. So stop worrying, Mr. Jonas."

Gavin smiled. He was happy that Jonas cared about Nelson.

Jonas nodded and decided not to question further. Yulia was disappointed that Jonas wasn't mad at Melinda, so she continued to degrade her.

"That's enough, Yulia. Stop it. I don't want you creating trouble for Melinda anymore."

Jonas finally understood Melinda. Yulia always spoke ill of Melinda, especially when she was alone with him. But Melinda always tolerated everything without complaining. God knew how Yulia would sneer at Melinda without his presence.

Yulia pursed her lips and stared at Jonas as anger boiled in her stomach. Melinda was an outsider, yet she was protected by everyone in the Gu family.

"Fine," Yulia mumbled.

Without Nelson and Melinda, the dining table was quiet. Queena seldom ate at home. Yulia was still embarrassed about what Jonas said. She took a bite of food and went back to her room.

Jonas was all alone. He glanced at Melinda's seat and couldn't help but miss her.
