SWNOVELS Chapter 70 Wrong Information
"Melinda, don't try to slander me," Yulia growled.
"Yulia, can't we get along well?"
Melinda asked, ignoring Yulia's words. Yulia was always causing trouble and Melinda didn't bother listening to her.
Melinda had tolerated a lot of humiliation and pain for Jonas. But she wasn't ready to endure it anymore. She wanted to teach a
lesson to everyone who was trying to rub her the wrong way.
"Get along well?" Yulia asked, cackling like a maniac.
"Are you fucking kidding me? Melinda, you can't be my brother's wife forever. I don't have to get along with you."
Yulia believed that Jonas despised Melinda and he was pretending to get along with her because of Nelson. Nelson was already
old and wouldn't be around for too long. With him gone, Melinda's life would be pitiful as Jonas would chuck her out of the house.
"Yulia, that's enough."
Melinda turned around angrily and was about to leave. But she bumped heavily into Yulia's arm, causing her phone to fall on the
carpet.
"Your phone."
Melinda picked up the phone and handed it to Yulia, while her fingers were firmly clasping it. She had an identical phone in her
hand.
Yulia pulled the phone angrily. The screen was blank and she couldn't turn it on.
"Damn it, how did it break?"
"Your phone is too old. It's time to buy a new one," Melinda said guiltily.
That was not Yulia's phone because Melinda had intentionally switched phones. She had taken Yulia's phone and replaced it
with an old, damaged one.
However, Yulia was gullible. She thought that her phone was broken for real. Melinda breathed a sigh of relief and left.
Melinda had flicked Yulia's phone to find out her plans. Although she could decipher Yulia's password, she had overestimated
the quality of her phone.
The phone had collided with the furniture, causing the screen to shatter. Melinda couldn't turn it on.
Fortunately, the damage wasn't serious. Melinda went to the store to repair it. The phone was fixed in no time and Melinda
immediately unlocked the phone. As expected, the password was Yulia's date of birth.
Melinda was aware that Yulia leaked information about her whereabouts to others. So she quickly opened her WeChat.
Yulia had added many rich society gals in her WeChat and it was flooding with messages. As she scrolled down the contact list,
a particular picture caught her attention.
It was a portrait of a woman and Melinda quickly recognized that it was Emily. Her eyes widened with shock when she saw the
chat records.
"What the hell!"
Melinda's mouth twitched with anger. She scrolled down and read the entire conversation. All her doubts were cleared as she
understood what was going on.
Yulia and Emily had worked together to fool Jonas. Melinda felt stupid for underestimating Yulia.
She quickly noted Emily's WeChat number and used Yulia's identity to buy a new number. She created a new WeChat ID with
the number and quickly added Emily.
Melinda instantly got a notification that Emily had accepted her request.
"What happened to your previous account?" Emily texted.
"My brother knows my previous account. It will be easy for him to find out. Moreover, my phone broke this morning, so I got a
new one. Contact me on this number."
Melinda's expert fingers typed the message in an instant as a smile tugged at the corners of her lips. The man who had repaired
the phone looked at Melinda and glanced at the air conditioner as he felt the temperature had dropped.
"Miss, is anything wrong with the phone?" he asked worriedly.
"No, thank you, sir."
She nodded and left the store. Melinda and Jonas had planned to have dinner at the fish farm tonight but Yulia had informed
Emily about it. Melinda knew that Emily would also come there and ruin their dinner.
So she quickly called Jonas.
"Jonas, I don't want to go to the fish farm tonight. Do you mind changing the place?" Melinda asked seductively.
She seldom made any request, so Jonas immediately agreed without questioning her.
"William told me about a good restaurant. We can go there."
"That's awesome. William is omnipotent and I think it's time for you to give him a raise." Melinda chuckled, oblivious to what
Jonas was about to do.
Jonas grudgingly deducted William's bonus. William felt dejected because his bonus was higher than his salary.
He didn't know what he had done wrong and didn't dare to ask Jonas about it. So he promised to work harder and impress Jonas
to get a hike.
Emily waited for Melinda and Jonas until nine in the evening. But Jonas and Melinda had already finished dinner by then and
were returning home.
The next day was the end of the week. Jonas and Melinda agreed to Nelson's request and decided to go on a date. They
informed everyone in the family that they were going to a resort. Melinda sent a message to Emily and grinned wickedly.
"Jonas, are you afraid of anything?" Melinda asked, cocking her head to the side.
"No," he answered coldly.
Melinda was taken aback by Jonas's response. But she quickly ignored him and flashed a smile. She had come to the
amusement park to have fun. Jonas never understood anything other than work, so she decided to ignore him and make the
most of her time here.
"Good. In that case, let's start with the haunted house, followed by a roller coaster ride, giant Frisbee, and finally the pirate ship,"
Melinda said, clapping her hands excitedly. She had always been an adventurous person and enjoyed the adrenaline rush. She
had been waiting to go to the amusement park for a long time.
Jonas looked at Melinda and rolled his eyes. "You are allowed to play only one adventurous ride. So make up your mind. You
have plenty of time to pick one."
"What?" Melinda's smile was wiped off in an instant.
"I said you can only go on one adventurous ride. I won't repeat myself."
Melinda tried reading Jonas's face to find out if he was joking. But his serious expression told that he wasn't lying. She was
heartbroken.
Melinda tried convincing him but he didn't seem to compromise. Melinda just got better and he knew that the rides would take a
toll on her body. He agreed to let her pick the game of her choice as he didn't have the heart to say no to her.
The haunted house was lifelike. The sound and props were disturbing and unearthly. Although Melinda constantly said that
everything was fake, she clung on to Jonas for dear life. She almost hugged Jonas and nestled her face into the crook of his
neck during the final act. The ghost looked almost real and Melinda was too scared to open her eyes.
But Jonas glared at the actor who was playing ghost, so he left without playing tricks on Jonas.
Jonas had never witnessed the bubbly side of Melinda. She was giggling like a little girl. His heart melted into a puddle and he
couldn't take his eyes off her.
Melinda was still holding Jonas's arms tightly as they walked out of the haunted house. She listened to Jonas and took the
mellow rides and munched on snacks.
Jonas had been incredibly sweet and protective of Melinda and she ended up having the best day of her life. Moreover, she had
managed to get rid of Emily and everything seemed better without her evil plans.
Both Melinda and Jonas were exhausted when they got into the car. Jonas was busy reading the company's documents and
Melinda was fast asleep on his shoulder. Her soft breath was rhythmically blowing across his neck.
"Slow down," Jonas whispered.
"Yes, sir."
Jonas slowly pulled out the blanket and draped it across Melinda's shoulders.
They soon arrived at the Gu's mansion. Jonas glanced at Melinda who was sleeping peacefully. He put the document down and
rubbed his eyebrows helplessly. He opened the door, slid Melinda into his arms, and walked out of the car.
Everyone in the villa was shocked to see Jonas carry Melinda in his arms. They couldn't help but wonder what had caused the
sudden change in him. Nelson would have danced in joy if he had witnessed this beautiful scene.
Emily had missed Jonas yet again. She was tired of waiting for him only to return home in vain. She couldn't contain her anger
anymore. Yulia wasn't replying to her messages either, so she sent a message to her original account.
Yulia had logged into WeChat on her computer and immediately read Emily's message.
"What the hell is wrong with you? Why have you been giving wrong information about Melinda's whereabouts? I'm sick of your
games."
Emily had been neglecting her duties just to get closer to Jonas. She went to the place Yulia mentions in the text. But Jonas
wasn't there and she waited there for him like an idiot.
"What do you mean by wrong information?"
"You told me that Jonas had gone to the resort with Melinda. I've been waiting at the resort the whole day but I neither saw Jonas
nor Melinda."
Yulia knitted her brows in confusion. "I didn't send any message to you."
"Stop it, Yulia. I have the chat records."
"I don't know what you're talking about. My phone is broken."
"I know. I wonder if you've broken your brain as well. Melinda is a smart woman. Stop playing your stupid games and find out
what she's up to."
Yulia could sense Emily's anger in her messages. But she couldn't understand what was going on. She hadn't contacted Emily
for the past two days. How did Emily know that her phone was broken and what was she saying about the wrong information?
Yulia's brain was buzzing with questions.
Melinda's phone was chiming with messages from WeChat. She opened her eyes and saw the messages flashing on her phone.
A smile stretched across her face when she read their messages. She immediately recorded the conversation.
Melinda shook her head when she thought about how Yulia and Emily joined hands to destroy her, even though they despised
each other.
Emily was annoyed and ended the conversation. She hadn't seen Jonas for a long time, so she decided to call and fix a meeting
with him.
Jonas's phone blared when he walked out of the shower. Melinda sat on the bed cross-legged and looked at Jonas. She was
looking different. Her tranquil eyes exuded a peculiar charm.
"Jonas, are you free tomorrow? I would like to go to the hot spring with you,"
Melinda asked, batting her eyelashes. Jonas swallowed loudly as his heart skipped a beat. Suddenly, his phone rang, and it was
from Emily. He picked his phone and walked out of the room to talk with her. He leaned against the doorframe and looked at
Melinda. She looked at him with a small smile on her face.
