Chapter 279 Missing

Jonas kept silent when he heard what Melinda said, and then drove the car silently. Melinda didn't know whether he listened to her or not, and she was worried and helpless.

Melinda was well aware that he may call to care about her, but he was indeed interrupting her work.

The two silently drove the car into the mansion. When they arrived home, Melinda, who was very hungry, suddenly lost her appetite. Seeing this, Jonas had no choice but to compromise. "I'll pay attention to it in the future," he said.

He could pay attention to it, but it didn't mean that he wouldn't call her again. He was in a complex mood now, but Melinda didn't think that much. She was a little happy to hear that from Jonas.

"What are you two whispering about? Come here and have dinner." Queena saw them standing at the door for a long time and couldn't help but greet them.

"Coming." Jonas held her hand and led Melinda back to their bedroom. After they got changed, they came back to the dining room. Nelson was still sitting in the seat of honor. All the dishes were placed on the table by the servants.

Melinda noticed the time on the wall by chance, and felt a little guilty. She was the one who caused the whole family to have dinner so late.

"Why did you work overtime on the first day? You must be tired." Nelson asked a servant to make a soup for Melinda. The steaming soup was slowly placed in front of her.

"I'm fine. Time flies fast when working."

If she stayed at home for a day, she didn't know what she would think. But as long as she was busy with work, she had no mood to think about those things.

"But you should also take care of yourself," Queena said and Melinda nodded quietly. Sitting aside, Yulia watched them, and felt more and more incompatible with this family.

At this point, she suddenly began to question herself why she wanted to stay in such a family with no feelings.

But she knew better that she didn't want to live a miserable life like her mother.

Melinda was really tired after a long day. She didn't even dry her hair after washing her face and rinsed her mouth. She just leaned on the bed and fell asleep. Seeing this, Jonas sighed in his heart and felt that Melinda was like a child.

He would protect her.

The next day, Melinda got off the bed early due to Jonas's call. With the tension of the previous day, she did not stay in bed today, but was in a trance.

Jonas was really worried that she might fall down.

"Cheer up. Do you still know where the company is?" Jonas patted gently on Melinda's cheek. Melinda shook her head and pointed at the company.

"Here we are."

As Melinda said, she unbuckled her seat belt and was about to get out of the car. However, Jonas looked straight in the eyes of her, while holding the hand of her.

"I have a dinner appointment tonight. I can't pick you up. Don't forget to call the driver."

Since Jonas hadn't shown up in the dinner for a long time, there was inevitably a lot of gossip outside. And the big customer was invited today, so it was hard to decline.

Melinda was taken aback, but s

ling that something was wrong. According to the rules in the business world, they should be passed before leaving. Jonas didn't need to worry about others since he had high status.

Seeing that his face was serious, Ted did as he said without hesitation. Thinking for a while, Jonas called Victor.

"Are you in the company now?" Jonas came straight to the point, completely ignoring the shock of the person at the other side.

In fact, Victor was still in shock by Jonas's phone call with him. He answered honestly after hearing his words, and he had already gone home.

"Who is still in the company?" Jonas felt very irritated. At this time, he was driving to the company where Melinda worked.

Victor realized that there must be something wrong with the way Jonas talked to him, and asked the reason. Knowing that he couldn't get in touch with Melinda, Victor sent people in his company to check. However, the security said that Melinda had left the company a long time ago.

"Melinda has left. I don't know where she is either," Victor said helplessly. He wanted to help him but realized his identity. At last, he said nothing.

Jonas pulled over in the street. Thinking about all the things carefully, he finally called a friend who worked in the police station.

"Missing? Are you sure it's not that she doesn't want to contact you?" the man answered the phone impatiently. He thought that since the relationship between Jonas and Melinda was very awkward, it was more likely that Melinda was at odds with him.

"It's not the right time to make a joke with you. I think that something is wrong with Linda," said Jonas. He felt very uneasy and guessed that Melinda must be very scared now.

And it was dangerous too!

Hearing this, the man didn't dare to joke any more. He quickly arranged his men to investigate.

Emily was the only enemy of Melinda. Jonas took out his phone and dialed the number which had been deleted for a long time.

Then the phone was hung up after only one ring!

He was pretty sure that it was Emily who did this.
