Chapter 62 A Quarrel

Jonas was sitting alone and the food on the table remained untouched. Melinda pulled a chair and sat next to him. She knitted her eyebrows and studied his face. He was grumpy and annoyed.

"Why don't you eat something?"

Melinda shook her head, picked some food for Jonas, and a dessert for herself. The chaos had made her ravenous.

When she took a bite and savored its taste, her eyes flitted to Jonas. He was staring at her coldly.

She finally put the chopstick down and stood up to greet Kent and his relatives.

She bid goodbye to them and went home with Jonas. The drive to the villa was quiet and Jonas was still irritable.

Melinda walked into the villa and plopped heavily on the sofa. She heard angry footsteps that vibrated through the carpet.

Jonas stood in front of her, breathing heavily. The collar of his coat was crumpled as if he had been crushing it in anger.

Melinda couldn't understand what was wrong with him. He was annoyed during the wedding and was behaving the same way even after getting home.

Jonas's eyes were fixed on Melinda. He was staring at her almost as if he was trying to read her mind. Melinda shifted on her seat as she became uncomfortable by the intensity of his gaze.

She finally tilted her head and looked at him. The vein on his forehead was pulsing wildly as he was trying hard to control his anger.

She wondered what she had done to upset him. She moved aside and patted on the empty side of the sofa, motioning Jonas to sit down.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked, knitting her eyebrows.

"Wow! So you don't know why I'm upset? Kent is finally married but you're still involved with him. Did you ever think about me?" Jonas growled.

Melinda understood that Jonas was furious because of what Kent said during the wedding. She was annoyed too and didn't put up with him.

Melinda glared at Jonas. She was mad at him for not trusting her. How dare he question her?

"I'm not involved with him. Kent is just my friend," Melinda yelled.

"He is just your friend?

Is that what he is? Then why are you still involved with him?"

Jonas asked, arching an eyebrow. He didn't seem to believe her.

Melinda closed her eyes and blew out a loud breath. She didn't want to argue with him.

She opened her eyes and her face softened. She understood that Jonas was annoyed because he was possessive of her.

Jonas's words were coated with jealousy. He couldn't see her getting closer to Kent.

Melinda's heart bubbled with joy.

She needed to clearly explain her relationship with Kent. Otherwise, Jonas would torture himself thinking about it.

Jonas was incredibly stupid to be insecure beca

d, clenching her fists. The mere thought of Melinda infuriated her.

"What made you think I will help you?" Yulia asked, arching an eyebrow.

"I know you hate her as much as I do."

Emily sneered.

"So What's your plan?"

Yulia asked, rubbing her hands excitedly.

"Isn't Jonas's company looking for the spokesperson for the key product?"

Yulia nodded, gesturing Emily to go on.

"I know that Melinda has applied for the position. She will be attending the interview." Emily massaged her temples and continued. "I've applied for the same position and I'll be attending the interview with her. Once we work together and repress her, I will become the spokesperson.

I'm cannot wait to see Melinda's sorry face when she finds out that she isn't the spokesperson."

Emily smirked.

Yulia pursed her lips and thought about the plan.

She finally decided to work with Emily. Everyone in the Gu family celebrated Melinda and Yulia would replace her position if she managed to get rid of her.

"Okay,

I'll help you,"

Yulia said, extending her hand for Emily to take. This was a rare opportunity and she didn't want to miss it.

Emily shook her hand and smiled. Yulia and Emily worked together and managed to defeat Melinda. Emily became the spokesperson of the key product of Soaring Group.

Emily wasn't surprised by the result. No matter how talented Melinda was, she was still a loser as she had failed in the interview.

Melinda could be with Jonas now but Emily was sure that he would come back to her sooner or later.

Emily was proud of herself and couldn't wait for Jonas to find the result. He would understand that she was a beauty with brains, whereas Melinda was just an ordinary woman.

She was overjoyed and wanted to dance in celebration.
