Chapter 99 Traffic Jam

Jonas knew that Melinda wanted to know the reasons. He hesitated for a while and finally said it.

Hearing the name of Emily, Melinda frowned. Then she hung up the phone without waiting for more words from Jonas, and her heart became even sadder.

How many times did she have to be hurt before she could understand that she was not important at all in the heart of Jonas?

As long as Emily appeared, all the illusions would be destroyed.

Hearing the 'beep' sound from the other side of the phone, Jonas was a little surprised. Then he knew that Melinda was angry. He dialed again, only to find that the other side was busy.

After calming herself down, Melinda left the corner. Not far away, Kent was talking with an edited. Seeing that she came, the two of them stopped the topic tacitly.

"Miss Mo, may I have the chance to cooperate with you next time? Your words are really pleasing."

The edited one only regretted that Melinda had found a company to work before he met her.

At the beginning, many people thought Melinda's words were dark, but it was strange to look clean. After reading it carefully, one would find that the tenacity of a stubborn person in the darkness was something that ordinary people couldn't have.

It was also because of this strong contrast that made her words more distracted.

"Thank you for your appreciation. I think there must be a chance."

"I won't bother you and Kent anymore. If you have the chance, we can talk more often."

Then he turned around and smiled at Kent, "I look forward to our cooperation."

"It's my pleasure."

The two men shook hands, then the edited and left in a short time. By what the two men said, Melinda sensed that the following cooperation of Kent would be from this magazine.

"You don't look well. You must be very tired after a long day."

Kent was a smart man. He knew that the reason why Melinda looked bad was because of the phone call just now. However, he found a very tired excuse for her.

"Yeah. I've been worrying about it for several days."

Although a lot of things were handled by staff of the studio, she was always involved in the whole process. Therefore, she was exhausted.

"There is an appointment later. You should have a rest first."

Kent said painfully. He was quite unsatisfied with Jonas's absence today, but he would not say it out. Because the emotional entanglement between Jonas and Melinda was just too sensitive.

The questions and answers of the interview were prepared in advance. Melinda had no need to think about how to answer them. Kent had left. When everything returned to normal, Melinda collapsed into the sofa in the lounge.

"Okay. The launch event is a success. Don't worry about the follow-up. I've arranged a driver to send you home. Don't stay here anymore."

The editor found it funny of her like this. Melinda had always been a gentle and elegant lady in front of others, and she was rarely so d

then said what happened this morning.

"Grandpa, it's my fault. I made such a mistake."

Yulia said with guilt. Hearing this, Melinda remembered that there was indeed a slight cry of pain by Jonas's side when she called him. Melinda didn't expect that it was Yulia.

But the time didn't matter if Jonas arrived at the party or because of Emily.

"Sorry, Melinda, I don't know my brother is busy today."

With tears in Yulia's eyes, she looked so innocent and sincere.

"It's not your fault. You don't need to apologize."

"All right, all right. I'm confused by what you said. Jonas, tell me, what's going on? Why don't you go to Melinda's new book show?"

It took Nelson a long time to figure out what was going on, but he was clear that Jonas didn't take part in the new book launch event.

"Melinda, didn't you say that you would let him be the mysterious guest? Will it be a problem if he doesn't show up? Do you want me to call the media?"

Nelson quickly thought about other things.

Jonas felt guilty at the thought of it. After all, it was a publicity stunt.

"I'm fine, Kent helped me."

As soon as he heard the name of Kent, Jonas's face became pale. But he knew that he deserved it, so he could do nothing but keep all his unhappiness in his heart.

He had to explain the reason why he didn't go to the press conference to his grandpa. If he tells the truth, Nelson will be furious and Melinda will be unhappy. That was not what he wanted to see.

"There's a traffic jam on the way. It's too late when I arrived."

Said Jonas. He was stuck in traffic because there was something wrong with Emily's car. But he hadn't thought that he would turn around and leave. In fact, he was just trying to help.

Hearing his explanation, a mocking smile appeared on Melinda's face. She thought, 'humph! Jonas is really good at lying!'

Melinda didn't know what exactly had happened, but she knew it definitely had something to do with Emily.
