Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Emily walked into the room and closed the door. Her droopy eyes widened and a smile stretched on her lips. She looked completely sober.

People in the entertainment circle usually had a stronger threshold for drinks. Emily pretended to be drunk just to get closer to Jonas.

Emily pulled out the cellphone from her pocket and immediately texted Yulia, instructing her what she needed to do next.

At the Gu family, Yulia read the message and smiled. She went to the small villa where Melinda lived.

Melinda was all alone in her room, reading books. Yulia couldn't help but admire Melinda at times. She was unfazed by the chaos in her life and read books that were hard for Yulia to understand.

"Melinda, I want to watch a horror movie but I'm too scared to watch it alone. Can I sit here and watch it with you?"

Yulia asked as she walked into the room with a laptop. She placed it afar and wore the wireless earphones to not disturb Melinda.

Melinda glanced at Yulia and continued to read her book.

She was used to Yulia hanging with her and didn't bother to stop her.

Yulia knew that it would take time for Jonas to return home from Emily's house and decided to execute her plans accordingly.

Jonas returned home at ten in the evening. Yulia heard Jonas's car in the yard and came downstairs at once. He got out of the car and accidentally saw a lipstick mark on his face through the rearview mirror. Just when Yulia's plan was about to collapse, she immediately hurried towards him. "Jonas!"

Jonas was taken aback by Yulia's sudden entry. "Why did it take so long for you to return home?" Her eyes widened with surprise and she covered her mouth with her hand.

"Why is there a lipstick mark on your cheek?" she asked before Jonas had the chance to wipe it off. His entire body froze.

Jonas followed Yulia's gaze and realized that Melinda was standing behind him. Her cold eyes seemed to be shooting daggers at him.

"Jonas, are you..." Yulia glanced at Melinda and back at Jonas. "Are you having an affair with another woman?"

she asked cautiously. Happiness bubbled in her heart when she saw that Melinda was staring at Jonas in shock. Yulia shut her mouth and shook her head.

She had left her earphones in Melinda's bedroom on purpose. Yulia knew that Melinda would run downstairs and bring it to her.

Melinda scoffed at Jonas and went back to her room.

Jonas's heart sank when he saw the disappointment in Melinda's eyes. He punched the air in frustration.

Yulia looked at Jonas and opened her mouth to say something but she saw him glare at her.

"Jonas, you..." She cleared her throat and continued, "You shouldn't do this to Melinda. It's unfair. Do you have any idea how upset she would be?"
