Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

"Mellie, I'm sorry if I was rude. I only wanted you to go out and relax, but not go back looking sad like that. Let's play two games first, just two. Then we'll go back."

Like persuading a little kid, Jonas lowered his voice and spoke to Melinda softly. He scanned around and found an ice cream stand not far away. He went to buy her a sugar cone, and he chose vanilla flavor, which Melinda liked most.

"Mellie, have a rest and enjoy some ice cream first. Then we will go to play,"

Jonas ordered, walking her to the side to sit on a bench. Many sharp-eyed business people appeared to sell their products. As long as anyone praised Melinda, Jonas would buy their goods in bulk.

His simple ways of pampering made Melinda a little uncomfortable.

During the entire day tour, Melinda felt flattered with Jonas's undivided attention, since he had always been indifferent towards her. She even tried many times to ignore him.

As a man with high self-esteem, Jonas had challenged his bottom line several times to play up to Melinda. However, she did not respond, which made him feel very embarrassed.

This proved true, especially when they met someone they knew halfway. Even though Melinda was cooperative, any wise person could see through her.

The two returned home silently. They were not as happy as they had been from this morning before the tour started. Instead, their expressions now had become more unpleasant.

Unclear as to why they looked gloomy, Nelson thought the two of them quarreled, so he warned Jonas.

Jonas didn't know what to say. He could tell how inferior his position had grown in the family.

For a long time now, Yulia had remained grounded. At first, she yelled in her room, but now she was quiet and kept her opinions to herself. She witnessed the changes in the family.

"Melinda, I have been learning how to compose prose recently, but there are many things I don't know. Can you teach me?"

Yulia, wearing a light blue denim skirt, tied up her locks into a high ponytail. The thin bangs made her face look even more beautiful. She held a collection of prose in her hands, which made her more attractive.

"I don't know much about prose. You can search for it on the Internet and read some prose works."

Melinda could hardly believe it. After a long while, she pointed at the selection of prose in Yulia's hand and gave some helpful suggestions.

Yulia had asked her for some pointers. She worried that there wouldn't be much conversation, and silence would eat up the air between them.

The smile on the corner of Yulia's mouth appeared somewhat forced. She finally made up her mind to communicate with Melinda slowly. She chose this topic since Melinda liked writing and literature. She didn't expect to come up with such an awkward arrangement.

Melinda was a little flustered but kept on smiling in discomfort. She recommended a few prose works for Yulia to check out.

"I don't get it. Can I ask you if I still encounter phrases that I don't understand?"

"Yes, you can."

Melinda felt a little baffled. But then she thought about it. If they had to live under the same roof, their
