Chapter 357 Apology
Chapter 357 Apology
"Did you find someone to catch Linda's father?" The employees outside couldn't help but murmur to themselves when they saw the sullen expression on Jonas's face.
Did the director offend the CEO? There would be a good show to watch. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
"What?" Jerry was not surprised at all that Jonas came to him at once, but he didn't admit it or deny it. He just sat in his seat indifferently.
"Jerry, I did not trouble you. You'd better behave yourself and don't mess with me. Hand over Linda's father as soon as possible." Seeing that, Jonas was much surer that the man was in Jerry's hand.
For the sake of his father, he didn't want to do anything bad to Jerry, but Jerry's way of doing things was so hateful that he dared to hurt Linda's father.
"Yes, I have him."
Jerry rotated his right hand with a pen, and tapped his left hand gently on the table, as if provoking something.
He stared straight at Jonas without fear of the coldness in his eyes. Now he was no longer the Jerry he used to be. He had the support of Wang family, and Jonas was no match for him since Jonas had not stabilized his position in the Soaring Group.
"Let him go," Jonas said in a tough tone, but he had a hunch that Jerry wouldn't let him go so easily. He was wondering what conditions Jerry would make.
In Jonas's mind, he couldn't help recalling what Jerry had said to Stacy when he had just entered the office.
"I can let go of him. The condition is very simple. Melinda has to apologize to Stacy in person on behalf of your mother." The smile at the corners of Jerry's mouth became wider and wider.
This step was very important. As long as Melinda apologized, his position in the Gu family would quietly change, and it was also a message to David that his heart was in the Wang family.
Only in this way could David spare no effort to help him.
"Apologize? To Stacy?" He loved and doted on Melinda. He didn't want her to suffer any grievance. How could he allow her to apologize to a person like Stacy?
Noticing the disdain in Jonas's eyes, Jerry was a little unhappy. Jonas was as arrogant as ever. He was now the son-in-law of the Wang family, but Jonas still had such an attitude.
"I don't mind if that old woman Queena comes by herself." Jerry shrugged and said. When he thought of the fact that Stacy was driven out by Gu family when she went to the Gu family, he was very angry.
No matter he liked Stacy or not, she was his woman. If she was bullied, it meant that he was humiliated.
"You are becoming more and more naive," said Jonas. He also felt that there was no need to continue the negotiation. Jerry was good at taking advantage of others as he still behaved well. So he turned around and left directly.
He thought that as long as he knew that it was Jerry who had done this, it wouldn't be too difficult to find the place where he had locked Vern up. He had a way to save his father-in-law, not to let his mother or wife be humiliated.
Stacy and Jerry were the same kind of people. If Melinda apologized, she would definitely be humiliated and even bullied.
Although Linda was gentle, she was not a tough woman. It was easy for her to hurt herself and her child.
The more Jonas thought about it, the more headache he felt. When he returned to his office, he saw the eager eyes of Ted asking about the progress of the matter.
"He won't let him go. You should follow this line and find someone to rescue him as soon as possible," said Jonas to Ted.
However, Ted began to worry. He felt that it was not that easy to complete this matter. Jerry was a scheming man. He might have guessed that they would investigate him.
Then there would be another pile of smoke bombs.
But this was the only way at present. After saying goodbye to Jonas, Ted went to the place where his men stayed and continued to cooperate with the investigation.
Although the conversation between Jonas and Jerry was not told to anyone, Melinda still got the news from Jessica.
Stacy deliberately revealed the news to Jessica in order to let Melinda know.
"Stacy, do you know it's against the law?" Jessica didn't expect that Stacy and Jerry would control Melinda's father and threaten Melinda to apologize to her. She felt that her friend had become a stranger to her.
Maybe one day, Stacy would point the knife at her for a man called Jerry.
"Jessica, they've been threatening us. I have no choice. Besides, I've been insulted. Shouldn't you be on my side?" Stacy looked at her friend and said disappointedly, feeling that she had changed.
Jessica felt depressed and didn't know how to vent her anger.
"Stacy, let Mr. Mo go. He is innocent," Jessica tried to persuade Stacy. However, Stacy remained unmoved. The two of them were in such a stalemate, so Jessica had no choice but to sound out Melinda's attitude.
As time went by, the secret that Jonas had deliberately concealed was known by Melinda.
"I'll apologize to them. As long as they let dad go, I'll do anything." After knowing this, Melinda called Jonas and asked him to contact Jerry. She was willing to apologize.
Melinda really hated herself. Her father was old and in poor health these years. He had been recuperating during this break. She didn't know how much pain he had suffered in the past few days.
And she clearly realized that what her father had suffered was caused by his unfilial daughter.
"Linda, I'll handle it. You just need to wait for dad at home." Hearing that, Jonas frowned. He didn't want Melinda to apologize to Stacy in person. He was afraid that Melinda would take action alone, so he wanted to ask the servant to stop her.
But at this time, the door of the office was pushed in directly from the outside. Before Jonas could lose his temper, he saw that it was Melinda standing there with an anxious face.
Her phone was still beside her ear, and Jonas finally realized why there was an echo in the phone just now.
Melinda knew that Jonas would refuse, so she went straight to the company to look for him.
"Take me to Jerry or Stacy," Melinda said firmly. It was just an apology and an insult. She had experienced a lot.
Would she be afraid that and put her father in danger?
"I don't agree," Jonas rejected without any hesitation. Melinda's face suddenly became complicated. She didn't know what was on Jonas's mind. This was the best solution at present.
"Jonas, your father left the person who hurt me at home. You should be filial to him. I didn't say anything. Now that the person hurts my father, why are you stopping me from saving him?"
Melinda was so angry that she began to talk nonsense. Her words were like a sharp knife stabbing into the heart of Jonas. Without blood, he felt extremely painful even if he moved a little.
"No matter what you say, I won't let you go." Jonas didn't want to explain anything, but his attitude was tougher than that of Melinda. She was so anxious that tears fell down, but he didn't change his mind at all.
"Jonas, I'm your wife, not your slave. You have no right to order me to do anything," Melinda said without any consideration again. She quarreled with Jonas, but Jonas didn't say a word for a long time.
Melinda was tired of scolding, and he even poured water for her. When William outside the door heard the words from inside, he was trembling with fear.
"If you don't want to wait for news at home, just wait here. Anyway, I won't let you go to them," said Jonas. Then he called William to enter his office.
"Keep an eye on her. You know what will happen if anything goes wrong," Jonas ordered William. There were many Jerry's men in the company, and he could trust fewer and fewer people.
Therefore, William became the best choice. No matter whether this person was loyal to him or not, he was a member of Nelson's men. Maybe Nelson wouldn't protect him, but he would definitely protect Melinda.
Jonas asked William to keep Melinda here and then left the office. Just now, he came up with another idea. Since Jerry didn't want to let Vern go, he would go to find David.
David also knew what had happened last time. He even mentioned it to Jonas that he didn't discipline his daughter well and that it was Stacy who had offended the Gu family.
But now, because of this matter, Jerry seized Vern and forced Melinda to apologize. He had two attitudes towards him, and Jonas thought he could have a good talk with David.
David's company was run by someone. He was at home most of the time, and he felt strange when Jonas visited him.
He was also guessing the purpose of Jonas. After all, he didn't agree with the marriage of Jerry and Stacy, and he had done a lot of things with Jonas.
Now he thought about it, he felt a little embarrassed. But it could be understood that this was business, and profit was always the greatest.
"Mr. Gu." David still appreciated Jonas, but unfortunately, he was a stumbling block to the expansion of his business territory.
"Mr. Wang, do you still remember that your daughter insulted and scolded my wife in the Gu's mansion last time?" Jonas came straight to the point. David was a little confused, but he still nodded.
Was Jonas going to deal with this matter?
"I remember you said last time that it was the fault of your daughter. Now you caught my father-in-law and asked my wife to apologize. What do you mean?"
Although the man in front of him was more powerful than himself, Jonas was not afraid of being confronted by him.
David was confused by Jonas's question and asked him what had happened. When Jonas knew that David didn't know, he was relieved and then told him what Jerry had done.
