Forgive My Ex-husband

It was at this time that Melinda noticed the man. He had a long scar on his face, looking like a savage.

Thinking of this, Melinda swallowed nervously with her eyes wide open.

The man looked at Melinda angrily. He did not expect that she would be so violent. His anger was even more frightening. Melinda unconsciously reached out her hand to search the things in her bag. It was not far away from the community, so she should be able to escape safely.

"Why did you follow me?" Melinda still waved the iron bar, as if she was threatening. The man felt a little annoyed that he didn't expect himself to be beaten. The wound on his body reminded him that Melinda was not a woman to be trifled with.

"If you don't tell me the truth now, I'll call the police," Melinda threatened.

When the man heard her words, his expression changed a little. Finally, he said helplessly, "Mr. Gu asked me to protect you."

'Mr. Gu? Jonas?' Melinda began to think.

The fierce looking man in front of her was here to protect her, but she just beat him. Recalling that, Melinda found that he did not fight back, but protected himself from too much harm.

Seeing that she was still suspecting him, the man explained, "Last time, Mr. Gu found out that Emily had put a tracker in him. Then he found out that Emily was looking for someone to retaliate against you." "Revenge on me? I haven't bothered her recently, have I?" Melinda was puzzled. Why did Emily badger her when she only worked hard?

The poker faced scarred man's face convulsed. Obviously, he was speechless to what Melinda paid attention to.

"Mr. Gu knows that you don't want him to follow and protect you, but he is worried about your comfort, so he arranged me to escort you home after work,"

the man said. He thought, 'Mr. Gu is such a cold man. Sometimes he is so soft. But this woman is really a little more violent.'

Although he had a strong resistance and had had more severe injuries than this, he felt ashamed to be hit by a woman like this.

Melinda was touched by the consideration of Jonas, but her gratitude didn't last long.

No matter what he did or how well he did now, it couldn't make up for what he had done in the past.

"I don't need his fake kindness." Now that Melinda knew who he was, she was not nervous at all. She crossed her arms and sneered.

The man thought that Melinda was ungrateful. He was annoyed by her reaction and wanted to teach her a lesson.

He was not happy for Jonas, but he also wanted to revenge for himself. Anyway, he could only think about it.

"Miss Mo, you really don't know anything, two days ago, a man followed behind you and was about to attack you, but I stopped him."

He told her about the danger of that day, as if it was just a casual thing. However, Melinda was frightened into a cold sweat. If it had not been for someone protecting her two days ago, she might have been hurt now.

It was not until now that Melinda realized that her back had been wet in sweat.

Her fears were expressed undisguised at this time, which made the man feel a little better.

But, thinking of what Jonas had told him, he reminded her again, "Now that you have discovered me, I won't protect you in the future. Be careful."

The man felt that as long as Melinda was cautious enough, she would not be hurt. He was hurt seriously. At this time, standing up from the ground, he could not help but gasp in astonishment. Melinda walked to him and offered, "How about I take you to the hospital?"

Melinda's eyes were calm, and at this time the guilt was obvious. The man stood up from the ground and pulled the corner of his mouth. "No, it's just a small wound. I'll apply some medicine after I go back." He walked steadily, except for some improper movements occasionally. Melinda walked slowly towards the community after the man disappeared.

Thinking of how fierce she was just now, in the eyes of him, it was just a minor wound. Needless to say, if this person was really a gangster, her tricks were not enough at all.

The thought of this sent a shiver down her spine. It was the first time that Melinda had felt so close to danger.

With mixed thoughts, Melinda came back home. Not until she checked the windows and door three times did she relax a little.

She had been tortured for only a short while by the feelings of fear and trembling. However, Melinda dared not let herself sleep.

At the same time, the man appeared at Jonas's house. Seeing his injury, Jonas asked, "Did Emily attack?"

"Boss, she caught me,"

the man said reluctantly. Even the bastards sent by Emily were not strong enough for him to beat alone, but Melinda, no matter how strong one's ability was, he couldn't beat her, so he had to restrain himself. "Did Linda hit you?"

Jonas couldn't believe it. In his eyes, no matter how angry Melinda was, she was always gentle and kind. How could she hit someone like that?

The man felt wronged for himself. Seeing this, Jonas coughed intentionally and asked the man to tell the details of that time.

"She used an iron bar to hit you at the beginning?"

Jonas heard another key point, and the man nodded with a black face, but saw his boss laughing.

He felt even more aggrieved. Once he recovered from his injuries, he would definitely go to find several brothers to practice their martial arts to give vent to his depression.

And what pleased Jonas most was that Melinda was still the same woman he knew, who had changed her weapon for she knew iron bar would hurt people.

"Should we send someone else to protect her?" The man replied in detail, including the dialogue between him and Melinda. Hearing this, Jonas thought for a moment, but shook his head firmly.

"She is not a fool. She will figure it out when she knows that Emily wants to hurt her." Jonas still had confidence in her. Although he said so, the worries in his eyes couldn't be hidden. The man didn't say anything more. Anyway, he has accomplished his mission.

Melinda was sleepy, and her eyelids were fighting. However, the bedroom was still bright. She almost fell asleep. She suddenly stood up from her seat and patted her cheek gently.

"Aha... I'm so sleepy," Melinda mumbled after she yawned. She was thinking about how to deal with the incident this time. Emily had numerous schemes. She worried that it would be impossible for her to handle it.

As the orange light fell on her body, Melinda seemed to be covered by a hazy light. However, her pretty face wrinkled. The beauty in her eyes was no longer elegant, but a kind of unknown panic. At this time, Melinda missed home very much. With the protection of grandpa, no one dared to bully her.

But she also knew that she had grown up. She was no longer the child who had hidden behind her grandfather when she had made mistakes in her childhood. She had to face the society alone. Melinda felt that she was going to lose her hair. It was almost 12 o'clock in the night. After a long hesitation, she picked up her phone and dialed Kent's number.

Now she really didn't know who else she could turn to for help except Kent.

"It's so late. Are you still up?" Kent picked up the phone. The way he talked to her made Melinda feel at ease.

"Kent, am I interrupting you?"

Kent knew Melinda well that she wouldn't call him at midnight unless she had something urgent to deal with.

"I have to work overtime. Your call wakes me up a lot. I almost pass the night by bending over the table," Kent said helplessly, comforting Melinda without a word. "you are working so hard,"

Melinda said blandly, but she didn't know how to get to the point. She who was good at writing could be as "eloquent" as a primary school student right now. "You call me just to say that. Shouldn't I feel honored to receive your call?" Kent put down the pen in his hand, kneaded his temples to soothe his intense nerve.

In fact, he said that was not only for comforting Melinda. The call had saved him from endless work, and the periodical office very busy recently.

The tea that his wife made had already cooled down. Kent took a sip casually. His slightly dry voice was much better all of a sudden.

"It sounds like I am heartless," Melinda murmured to herself. Then she realized that she could only call Kent for help. She felt very guilty for no reason.

"Aren't you?"

If someone asked Kent about it, he would immediately name Melinda as the most heartless one among the people he knew.

Thanks to the teasing of Kent, Melinda was less nervous. She sat on the bed with legs crossed and prepared to speak.

"Kent, do you still remember Emily?"

"Why did you mention her? What a bummer!" Of course, Kent wouldn't forget Emily, because Melinda's suffering had everything to do with that Emily, not to mention that she was the one once Jonas loved. Even though she was not the one he loved for a long time.

"I was followed by someone recently. It turned out that Emily was behind that." Melinda had removed the role played by Jonas in this matter naturally.

Hearing this, Kent's heart missed a beat. He asked with concern, "Are you okay?"

"I am okay, Jonas... I'm just worried that she might have a plan B." Melinda simply told him that Jonas had arranged someone to protect her, and then told him what had troubled her the whole night. Emily was absolutely a time bomb. Although she did nothing, Melinda was too scared to sleep.

"You can't fall asleep because of this?" It had to be said that Kent really knew Melinda well. From this moment on, he figured out why she called him at late night. He was immediately irritated that she hesitated to tell him this thing.

"Yes." Melinda felt even more embarrassed. She was a paper tiger sometimes, and she was indeed afraid of it.
