Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

The way from the courtyard to the bedroom was not far, but Melinda felt that it was so long, and she began to be anxious. When
she approached the villa, she ignored Jonas who was behind her.
It was not until she felt that Nelson wasn't watching her that she felt relieved. Then her heart rose to her throat.
Melinda walked straight to her study, which was well-decorated. There were green plants and books on the bookshelf. Several
books on the desk were opened, about the Republic of China.
The overall color of the study was light colored, but there was some warmth in some small furnishings. Melinda found a contract
in the second drawer of the desk, which was signed by the two of them at that time.
"This is the only thing I have here. Are you going to let me show it to grandpa?"
Melinda slammed the papers on the desk, raised her head and glared at Jonas. The look on her face was cold and rigid, and the
blue veins on her fingers were bulging. She was trying her best to control her anger.
Taking a slight glance at the document, Jonas suddenly had the impulse to tear it up. He couldn't accept it when he thought that
Melinda would leave after he got the right of inheritance and.
"Don't worry."
"I'm not worried. Now you tell grandpa that I keep the marriage certificate for us. Tell me, where did I keep the marriage
certificate?"
Melinda said in a rage. Jonas did that just for buying time to find a solution. Now Melinda was angry, he soon comforted her.
"It's my fault. Grandfather asked this question all of a sudden, I was too nervous that..."
"You pushed me out to face it because you were too nervous, right? Don't you think you've gone too far?"
If it were not for the last sanity that supported her, Melinda might have thrown all the books on the table on Jonas.
Her chest was still heaving sharply. It could be seen that she was extremely angry. What's more, she was flustered, and had no
idea what to do.
She needed someone who would back her up, instead of being pushed away.

Therefore, what Jonas did not only disappointed her, but also made her feel sadder.
"Melinda, let's not talk about it now. Let's find a solution to the current situation. When the matter is settled, you can punish me
whatever as you like, okay?"
Jonas's voice was so attractive that Melinda used to be captivated by it. But now his voice brought her back to her senses. She
even wanted to give Jonas a good beating.
Sitting on the chair, with her legs trembling, Melinda looked like she was going to faint. Jonas was standing behind her. Both of
them calmed down and began to think about how to deal with the situation.
"Where is our old marriage certificate?"
"No, we can't use that. The date is not right and it's indicated to be invalid." The most important thing was that it had been torn up
by him a long time ago. Of course, Jonas would never tell her this thing.
"Then even if we go to get one now, the date is also not right."
Hearing this, Melinda couldn't help telling the truth. Things were out of control.
She felt that she was in an airless room with no fresh air. Gradually, she could not breathe. She tried hard to walk out of the
room, but she was surrounded by cold walls.
"Melinda, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
Jonas noticed that there was something wrong with Melinda's face, and he shouted with worry. But Melinda sat there with a dull
look, showing no reaction for a long time.
"Melinda."
"Yes."
Melinda looked up blankly at Jonas, who placed his finger on her eyebrows in order to comfort her.
He felt so guilty that everything was caused by him.
"Don't worry. I'll work out a proper date for the marriage certificate. All we need to do now is to look for an excuse to go out and
register our marriage certificate."

The reason why he went out was not difficult for him to think, but now he was suspended, a more reasonable reason could only
be from Melinda. However, Melinda misunderstood that he pushed her to take the bullet deliberately just now. If he used her
now, the consequences might be bad.
However, Melinda was not as smart as Jonas.
What kind of excuse could she use to get out at this critical moment, and get enough time to deal with all the affairs?
"Melinda, time is running out."
Nelson was a shrewd man. They had stayed in the room for a long time. If they still didn't go out, he must be suspicious.
"Let's go out first."
While saying that, Melinda saw the QQ message from the right corner of the computer and quickly figured out a reason. She
went to the bedroom to take her bag and changed into a pair of high heels.
"Grandpa, I just received a call. There is something urgent. I have to go out now. Jonas, go with me."
Melinda looked anxious and she was in a mess. Moreover, she was wearing high heels and it made her frown.
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
"My editor called me. The copyright of my new book is in trouble. I have to go right away."
Jonas raised his eyebrows secretly. He also thought of the copyright at first.
"There's something wrong with your book. Is it serious? How about asking a lawyer from our company to go with you?"
The copyright might have a large or small issue. Nelson was worried about that Melinda might suffer losses.
"No, thanks. Jonas knows a lot. And the professionals my editor has assigned will help me with it. Don't worry too much,
grandfather. I'll come back and show you our marriage certificate as soon as I'm done with it,"
Melinda said and swallowed her saliva. She seldom talked nonsense in such a serious manner. Jonas, who sat beside her,
helped her to straighten her bag and prevented laughing.
"You go with Melinda. Don't let her be bullied, okay?"

Nelson warned Jonas, and the two of them got on the car in a hurry. Jonas's car disappeared from Nelson's sight like an arrow
from the string.
It was not until Melinda left the Gu's mansion that she was completely relieved. She collapsed into the passenger seat, and
Jonas gradually slowed down the speed.
"Jonas, don't you know how to deal with such a matter?"
Looking at the view outside the window, Melinda regained her composure. There were lots of disappointment and resentment in
her heart.
"I'm sorry."
With hands on the steering wheel, Jonas saw that Melinda was still angry. So he took the initiative to apologize. "You know my
status in the family, that is, my grandfather favors you more. Even if you tell the truth, my grandfather won't blame you, but only
scold me," he explained half-jokingly.
What Jonas said was true that it was obvious that Nelson favored her. But Melinda still felt uncomfortable.
"Grandpa has begun to suspect us. Don't you know why he doubted us?"
If it hadn't been for Jonas who had tangled with Emily and made so many troubles, Nelson wouldn't have done this.
Melinda opened the window, letting the wind blow into the car. Her long silky hair danced in the narrow space, half covering her
eyebrows and eyes. The fragrance of shampoo was lingering in her nose.
Jonas turned his head and looked at Melinda. He reached out and held her left hand. She was struggling, but was clasped more
tightly.
"I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I don't care how you're going to punish me. Calm down, okay?"
When Melinda was angry, she didn't sit there like other girls who pouted their lips and showed an impatient look. Instead, she
just sat there quietly, looking indifferent, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
Jonas felt the same way. He would feel more comfortable if Melinda beat him. But she was just angry. She just said something
ironic to him. He didn't know how to comfort her and calm her down.

"To punish Mr. Jonas, I dare not."
Melinda tried to get rid of his hand again, but failed because she was no match for him in strength. So she gave up directly.
"You should buy two out of season clothes in the mall before going to the Civil Affairs Bureau."
Although Melinda was angry, she did not ignore the details that should be paid attention to. They went to make up the marriage
certificate at this time. If the clothes they wore today were in the photo, Nelson would definitely be suspicious.
The shrewdness of Nelson was really a headache to them.
"Okay."
As Jonas spoke, he made a turn and the car was heading to the downtown. The window was closed. Melinda's hair was blown
and knotted. She finally found a reason to let him go, tidying her hair with two hands.
But because of impatience, her scalp hurt from time to time.
Looking at the scene, Jonas could not help frowning. The speed of the car out of the suburb was slowed down. Melinda tied her
hair up, and then turned to lean against the window. She drew something on the window.
The car slowly stopped in front of a shopping mall. Melinda and Jonas wore sunglasses and selected a clothing shop nearby.
Jonas chose a white shirt and a white chiffon dress for Melinda.
Standing together, they looked like wearing couple's clothes, and Jonas was very satisfied with this. However, the look on
Melinda's face was still cold. Apparently, she was still unhappy about what had happened before.
Sometimes, it was very difficult to change a person's mind when he or she felt disappointed at another person, just like Melinda
was disappointed at Jonas. Whatever he did, she would always bear grudges against him.
When they got changed and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau, Jonas had told his friends worked there on the way that he would
change the date to a few months ago. They took a group photo, which was different from the one on the first marriage certificate.
On the first one, Melinda was smiling, and on the second one, Jonas was smiling.
Seeing the familiar red booklet in front of her, Melinda was lost in thought. Yet, Jonas extended his hands and took it reverently,
with a big smile on his face.

He seldom smiled so happily.
Melinda cast a glance at Jonas and thought he was silly. She wanted to smile at him, but felt a little sad in her heart.
"The marriage certificate is ready. Let's go back."
Looking at the excited couples around her, she felt that she could never find the excitement and nervousness that she had
before.
The sweetness of others seemed to remind her that they were different.
