Chapter 238 The First Test

"Jonas, don't make yourself so noble. Test Kent? Do you think you're qualified?"

If it weren't for the manner, she would have pointed at Jonas and hurled insults at him. In her eyes,
Jonas was the person who hurt her most in a relationship.

But it was also this man who was accusing others of their affection for her.

"Why am I not qualified?"

Melinda was about to lose control of her emotions. But Jonas was unusually calm. He neither accepted
her blames nor refuted her. He just silently told the truth that he felt.

"Linda, just come and test me. Then you will find out who loves you the most,"

said Jonas. He was even looking forward to seeing such a scene that let Linda test him, which meant
that she was willing to give him a chance.

This time, he would not let Linda down.

Looking at Jonas, Melinda was so angry that she laughed out loud. She mocked, "Okay, I will test you.

"Mr. Jonas, I hope you are not as impatient as before."

All of her shadows were too painful to look back. She thought a lot of times to test Jonas and only to
prove herself a joke many times.

She had even expected that Emily would appear in less than three days, and Jonas would have
forgotten what they had said today.

"Linda, I hope you have some confidence in me,"



Jonas said in a soft voice and walked up to her. He wanted to hug Melinda, but was dodged by her.
"Can you leave now?" she asked, looking at him impassively.

Melinda was a little tired. The feeling of exhaustion overwhelmed her again.

Jonas pursed her lips and restrained the words he wanted to say to Melinda in his heart. He forced a
smile.

"Have a good rest,"

said Jonas. He turned around and left with disappointment. He seldom showed any facial expression,
so even if he was unhappy or disappointed, Melinda couldn't figure it out.

But Melinda could feel that Jonas was in a bad mood. She hated her understanding of him.

Since Jonas left, he had been encouraging himself. At least, Linda was not with Kent now, and she was
willing to give him a chance. It was a great change.

When Jonas returned home, Nelson was drinking tea in the living room. Seeing him, he asked in a
hurry, "Have you figured out what happened between Linda and Kent? How is your relationship with
her going?"

Nelson also wanted to ask him how exactly he chased her. How could the child be unable to help him?

Queena was preparing dinner in the kitchen. She had not been busy in the kitchen for a long time and
had been interested in trying new dishes recently.

Hearing Nelson's question to Jonas, she left her work to a servant and walked out of the kitchen after
wiping her hands.



Jonas sat calmly next to Nelson. There were three cups of tea on the table, a faint fragrance floating,
making him can't help but feel relaxed.

"This tea is good."

With these words, Jonas took one cup of tea and smelled it. All of a sudden, he sighed that only Nelson
could make such good tea.

While drinking tea was fastidious. The two elders were a little anxious because of the unhurried
appearance of Jonas.

"It is a waste of tea for you to have it. Now, tell me what happened between you and Linda," said
Nelson unhappily, looking at Jonas. Realizing that he was disliked, Jonas was not angry, but had been
used to it.

As long as Melinda was involved, Nelson would definitely support her.

"I had people put on a show. Now Linda and Kent have broken up," said Jonas. This show seemed
simple, but it had incisively and vividly squeezed people's hearts.

Experienced businessmen mastered tactics the most. Generally speaking, tactics were difficult to deal
with.

And Jonas was one of them.

"Do you think we can settle all this just by making a scene?"

But Nelson realized it was not that simple. He asked confusedly, and then Jonas told him the whole
story.



"Well done! Such a person does not deserve Linda." Nelson was very angry when he heard that
Melinda was disliked by the Jiang family and even abandoned by Kent, although he hoped that Melinda
could be with Jonas.

"Dad, who are you supporting?"

Queena said reluctantly. If Kent had passed the test, Melinda would be with him forever.

Hearing this, Nelson touched his mustache which didn't exist at all and coughed with embarrassment.
Then he came back to the point.

"Linda doesn't know you did this, right?"

"She knows."

The two elders were stunned by Jonas's words. Since when Jonas was so unreliable? This even made
Nelson doubt Jonas's ability again.

"I've told her everything. Linda..." Thinking of the attitude of Melinda, Jonas touched his nose and said
calmly, "She is a little angry."

Melinda was not only angry, but Jonas briefly cut down the whole story.

"But now Linda promised to give me a chance. She will test me. You can rest assured that I will get her
back."

When Jonas said so, Nelson and Queena laughed in satisfaction, especially Nelson said good all the
time.

"Well, it's good that Linda is willing to give you a chance. Dinner is almost ready. Let's go to eat,"
Queena said. There was a joyful smile on everyone's face, as if Melinda had accepted Jonas.



Having a happy dinner, the Gu family was not in the gloom atmosphere in which they knew that
Melinda and Kent were together.

Jonas had a lot of work to do every day. After dinner, he accompanied Nelson and then went to the
study to work.

Nelson put a heavy burden on him. Although he didn't say anything, he had set up a lot of opportunities
for Jonas in private.

It was one o'clock in the morning when Jonas came to rest. A few minutes after he lay down, his cell
phone rang in a hurry.

This phone call was set specially for Melinda by him. Hearing it, Jonas jumped out of the bed and
answered the phone quickly. His voice was not as cold as usual, and was a little sleepy.

"Linda."

"Jonas,"

Melinda said, but then didn't say anything. Since Jonas was waiting patiently, after a long while,
Melinda slowly said, "Come and pick me up."

"Pick you up? Where are you now?" Jonas was not stupid, so he didn't think that Melinda was at home.

At the thought of the health of Melinda, he began to worry about her again.

"I'm at a barbecue stall on the roadside outside the fourth ring. There is an obvious building near me.
It's a hotel called YC. Come and pick me up,"

Melinda said sleepily. She seemed to have drunk some wine, which made Jonas more worried, but he
didn't want to blame her. Now the most important thing was to take her back.



"You just stay there and don't run around, okay? I'll be there soon."

As Jonas spoke, he put on his coat. He was quick in movement. He put on his indoor slippers and got
on the car.

His car was usually parked in the yard. He got on the car and started it quickly.

"Linda, let's keep talking until I get there, okay?" Jonas asked worriedly. Melinda was alone outside of
the fourth ring in the middle of the night.

Most hooligans like gathering around barbecue stalls.

"H'm," Melinda answered in a daze. She didn't hang up the phone. Instead, she just replied "H'm"
whatever Jonas said, sounding very tired.

There were few cars on the road at night. Although Jonas's car speed kept rising, he still thought it was
too slow.

Melinda was lying on the bed. She felt that Jonas called her name from another world. A few minutes
later, she was completely asleep.

She dropped her phone on the side. Inside the phone it was still from Jonas.

"Linda? Linda?" Jonas called her several times, but she didn't respond. Not long after, she began to
breathe and Jonas felt that she was asleep.

He was too worried about Melinda that he did not notice the quietness over the phone. How could there
be no sound at the night barbecue stall?

The barbecue stall in the city was far away from the Gu's mansion. It was almost three o'clock in the
morning when Jonas arrived.



That was to say, he was driving really fast.

Almost overnight, there were many people eating in the barbecue stalls or sidewalk food stall.
Therefore, Jonas looked around as he hurriedly walked through the stalls, but he didn't see Melinda.

He couldn't help worrying, holding the phone, only to find that the phone had been hung up.
Unprecedented panic swept over him.

He looked at everyone around him and felt that they were all like criminals.

"Are you Mr. Gu?"

Just when Jonas was about to contact Ted, a man carrying a large plate of roasted food came to him
and put the food on the table beside him.

"Miss Mo asked me to deliver a message to you, saying that this is your first test. She wonders if you
can pass it or not. Now that you're here, I think you have passed it. These are the rewards Miss Mo
gave you."

The man was the owner of the barbecue stall, but he felt strange when he was asked to do so by
Melinda. After thinking that young men were all like this, he agreed.

He didn't expect that the Mr. Gu she said had really come here, and the time was much earlier than she
had expected. If he went out in the middle of the night to look for someone, he must be in love with her.

"She told you this?"

asked Jonas as he looked at the stall owner, and then he felt that it was the style of Melinda.

The stall owner smiled kindly, took out a piece of paper from his pocket after wiping his hands, and
handed it to Jonas.
