Chapter 78 Worse
"Jonas, I need your help."
As soon as the words came out of Emily's mouth, Melinda was very surprised, or perhaps she had some admiration. How could she say that she needed help so confidently as if Jonas would definitely help her?
Hearing the soft music in the coffee shop, Melinda turned her head and looked out of the window, trying to calm herself down. It was rare that she got along so well with Jonas, and now the peace was destroyed. To be honest, she really wanted to quarrel with Emily.
"I don't have time today. We can talk about it tomorrow."
Jonas had been trying hard to be nice to Melinda recently. Now seeing Melinda's expression on her face, he only felt that she was not happy, so he wanted to deal with Emily as soon as possible.
Emily didn't miss the change in the attitude of Jonas to her. She looked at Melinda with eyes full of resentment. But she didn't turn around and walk away directly. She looked at Jonas with grievance, and gently bit her red lips.
"Jonas, I know you hate me now, but it's all because I love you too much. You and I were..."
Emily wanted to say something but stopped on a second thought. She looked at Jonas's eyes. Her expression showed that she was saying that Jonas was an unfaithful man. Melinda had always been watching over them. Hearing what Emily said, she could not help raising her eyebrows.
"Forget it. It's no use saying anything. You don't trust me anymore." Emily took a deep breath, pretended to be generous, and then went straight to the point. "Jonas, I'm not a little girl anymore. The company has been focus on others recently, and I need your help."
Emily clenched her fists. When she thought of the attitude the company had towards her, her eyes would be filled with anger. Those people would only add insult to injury. They would never offer timely assistance to others. She would just stay away from them.
The entertainment circle was such a cruel place. She had been in it for many years and had started at a high position, but it still didn't go well these years. So after she came back to China, she found the right person to make use of his reputation like Jonas.
Sure enough, the company saw her value and arranged resources for her, but the situation changed, and the company was considering to give her up.
"Jonas, I did not do anything wrong except I love you so much. Why are you so cruel to me? Have you forgotten what happened when we were little? We played house at that time. You said you would marry me.
You didn't know how happy and self-abased I was at that time. You were so good to me. I was afraid that I didn't deserve you, so I had been working hard. I just thought that one day I will be qualified to stand beside you, but now is it too late?"
Emily said painfully, tears rolling down from her fingers. Her delicate oval face was covered with tears, making people want to take care of her.
"Jonas, I really want to be your bride since I was a little girl."
Tears welled up in Emily's eyes, and she looked at Jonas. Thinking of what had happened when they were little, Jonas was touched. But joking was always joking. Jonas remembered that it was Emily who had left first, and it was too late to say anything now.
"I'm going home first.
ashamed.
'How could a scum like him deserve my praise?!'
The more Melinda thought about it, the angrier she got. But in fact, she soon took action. She had opened the backstage and started to modify the story. She had deleted all of the descriptions about Jonas.
It seemed that only in this way could she remove the position of Jonas in her heart.
The childish behavior didn't work off her anger. Melinda began to sulk. Jonas stood outside the door all the time and didn't dare to disturb her. They kept silent until eight o'clock in the evening, which was the time Melinda updated the chapter punctually every day.
But today, there was no update. There was only an announcement that Melinda modified the chapters that she had updated before. Jonas clicked in and found that she deleted many of his previous descriptions.
Jonas was irritated, but he didn't know what to do. He had explained everything, but it didn't work. What's more, what Melinda did made him depressed.
He could not bear such a feeling. After standing at the door for a long time, he finally took the car key and left the Gu's mansion.
Jonas had a habit, when he was in a bad mood, he liked drinking. He drove the car to the bar where he usually went to when he was in college. But he seldom came back after graduation.
Jonas often mentioned what happened in the college with Melinda recently, so he missed the bar. He came here unconsciously.
The boss was still the young man who owned the bar years ago, but after so many years, he had become much more mature. Jonas ordered a few drinks casually and drank alone.
Most of the drinks in the bar was mixed with green tea. The cocktail was mixed with green tea so the alcohol degree was not too high. What's more, he was a good drinker.
"Jonas?"
An uncertain voice came. Jonas looked up and saw a man in a suit looking at him wonderingly. The man smiled as Jonas looked up.
"It's really you. I thought I got the wrong person,"
the man said with a smile. After all, as Jonas's identity now, he would not appear here.
"It's you. Long time no see."
Jonas recognized that this man was his good friend in college.
