Queena knew that she had a grandson whom she had never met, but she didn't know these details. Melinda was just telling simple stories, but it was not difficult to see how deep Emily's scheme was.
Thinking of every detail she had made acquaintance with Emily, Queena was distressed.
She was really enchanted by Emily just as what Nelson said. Queena looked at Melinda guiltily and apologized solemnly, "I'm sorry."
"What?" Looking at Queena in confusion, Melinda didn't know why she suddenly apologized, but Queena just smiled and didn't explain.
"It seems that I'm really getting old. I was fooled by an actress."
"People will say we're sisters when we go out. You are not old at all,"
Melinda said in a comforting voice. She was happy that Queena recognized Emily and knew what had happened in the past. Queena felt so sorry for Melinda.
She made a decision in her heart to cut off the contact with Emily. Such a person was better to stay away from her.
Speaking of what happened in the past, Melinda felt that her original intention to go back to the Gu family had changed. She was struggling inwardly.
With their own thoughts, they didn't talk much and went back to their own bedrooms respectively.
The next morning, when Melinda woke up, she found that the quilt was almost gone. Just in a twinkling of an eye, she saw the enlarged handsome face of Jonas.
She touched his eyebrows and eyes with her fingers, feeling perplexed again.
All of a sudden, Jonas opened his eyes. Seeing that, Melinda's fingers froze. She casually found an excuse and said, "You must be very tired recently. Your hair is turning white."
Then she yanked a strand of hair from Jonas' head without any hesitation. She lifted this hair in front of Jonas. His short black hair was not white at all.
Melinda embarrassed and laughed, but then pretended to be strong, "The light is not on. I made a mistake."
It was already winter and the weather was cold when they got up. Even the lights outside the house were not bright enough.
At the first glance, Jonas saw through Melinda's poor excuses, but looking at her lively appearance, he couldn't get angry at all.
Melinda was still wrapping around Jonas's hair. She was trying to cover up her behavior just now, and she also did it on purpose.
Thinking of the past, she had a deep grudge against Jonas. She felt upset that she wanted to do something to make herself satisfied.
It was a typical lazy morning in winter. With room heating on, Melinda got up late. She didn't go to the bathroom until Jonas had washed his face and rinsed his mouth.
Wearing a light pink home wear and a coat, Melinda followed Jonas to the restaurant.
Nelson and Jonas were holding the newspapers in their hands. Queena served the breakfast for the family in person. Melinda rushed up to help, almost fell over the carpet because she wore too much.
"Good morning, Grandpa and mom,"
Melinda greeted them. Seeing her clumsy manner, Queena refused her help.
Nelson put down the newspaper. Seeing that Melinda always dressed more than others, he couldn't help saying, "You should find a traditional Chinese d
our uncle and his family along."
When Nelson went back to the study, he told Jonas that. Since it was a family gathering, they should inform Aron's family members. It was just that whether they came or not would depend on themselves.
Queena's face was a little unhappy. The two families were now fighting overtly and covertly for the inheritance of power, and Nelson was basically on the side of Jonas, and the two families didn't get along well with each other.
"Okay."
Jonas didn't have much feelings about it. He believed he was capable of dealing with Aron and his son.
As long as the company's business was done well and no one had left any trace of it, no matter how much Aron and his son did, it was useless. But if they were caught by him, he would definitely be merciless.
Time flied. On the weekend, Aron and his son, Rey, showed up on time. The family drove three cars.
Aron's wife went back to her parents' home, so she did not come to this party. And everything was prepared by Queena and Gavin. Because it was winter, there were few people in the suburb. The weather this weekend was warm, and it was relaxing in the suburb.
Nelson didn't take any servants with them in order to improve the relationship of the two, so he arranged the four young people to do the work for them.
In order to show his value of being in front of Nelson, Rey tried so hard to do anything, while Yulia just did nothing.
"Jonas, smooth the table cloth for Melinda."
At this moment, Melinda was kneeling on the ground, trying to tidy up the folds of the table cloth. She was afraid of the coldness, so she was wearing too much and she acted clumsily like a stupid bear.
The corners of Jonas's mouth curved slightly.
He was tall and strong, and he had long and thin hands. Moreover, he did not wear much. In a short time, he straightened the table cloth. But Melinda was sitting next to him, gasping for air.
"Please place the food on the table."
Jonas moved some foods out of the car and placed them in front of Melinda. After wiping her sweat, she began to put the food in order.
