Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 263 Teasing

"Don't worry. I won't let Emily play the leading role," Jonas said affirmatively. He would only drive Emily to the corner, and there was no reason to pave the way for her.

At the thought of Emily, he felt much angrier. How dare she speak out words like that? She was so good at flattering herself.

With his understanding of the entertainment circle, Jonas thought about the same thing as Melinda. Maybe Emily was able to do that by all means.

"You look so haggard because of it these two days?" asked Jonas, feeling heartbroken, especially after he saw the dark circles under Melinda's eyes.

Melinda smiled sheepishly, and did not deny it. She was indeed a very worried person.

Besides, she didn't want to bother Jonas with such trifles. If he knew what was on Melinda's mind, maybe he would be angry for a while secretly.

"Don't worry. I will take care of it. You should have a good rest after drinking the milk." Seeing the dark circles around her eyes, Jonas felt sad. He reached out his hand and touched the temperature of milk, but found that it was cold. Then he voluntarily made a new cup for her.

Looking at the hustle and bustle of Jonas, Melinda felt relieved for the first time.

Maybe that was not bad.

She was lost in her mind while Jonas was very careful. Then he brought the milk to her gently and then pushed her to sleep.

Lying on the bed, Melinda closed her eyes and smelled the familiar smell of Jonas. He had been protecting her all the time. She was no longer alone.

Not long after, Jonas heard her shallow breath from the bed.

Melinda hadn't slept at all and she had been worried all day. She was already exhausted. With a wry smile on the corner of his mouth and a touch of bitterness in his heart, he wondered what he could do to make her completely put down her guard.

Jonas stayed with her in the room for a long time, leaving a night light for Melinda. Then he took a blanket from the cabinet and went to the living room.

Although the room was soundproof, he still went to the balcony when he made the call.

The director was woken up by a phone call while he was sleeping soundly. When he saw the caller ID, his face suddenly changed.

"Mr. Gu, what can I do for you?" His voice indicated that he was drunk. Frowning, Jonas knew that many things in the entertainment circle were caused by drinking.

Emily also used such means, which he found when investigating her dirty news. Thinking of Melinda's worries, he believed that it was totally reasonable.

"Are you busy now?" His tone was very calm, but for some reason, it made people feel nervous. The director didn't know the purpose of this call and didn't know how to answer it.

"The news of the TV series has gone out. They are selecting the right actor and actress,"

the director said. It made Jonas feel that he was still busy with his time in TV series, so he should be no problem with it. However, he did not know that when Jonas heard that he was drinking like this because of the TV series, he felt that something bad was happening.

He didn't mind such things happening, which happened in this circle all the time, but if they happened in front of Melinda, it would be a different story.

"It's troublesome to select roles. You must have been tired lately." Jonas didn't go straight to the point, but asked in a calm tone. The sudden concern made Elmer confused.

Jonas didn't seem to be so considerate. Was there something he didn't know, or was there something Melinda said?

When he thought of the call from Melinda last night, Elmer got angry again. As a layman, she always came here and judged him.

"It's alright. Almost all the people have been decided. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Gu," Elmer answered immediately.

Jonas touched the handrail with his fingers and then cut to the chase, "Have been decided? Where is the leading actress?"

He had been drinking tonight and the members had been decided? Inevitably, Jonas became more vigilant. Unaware of the situation, Elmer sneered in his heart, 'Sure enough, Melinda said something.'

He was also very angry. Where did his reputation rank go? He didn't expect to be questioned again and again by an outsider. Even if he agreed, she still mentioned it to Jonas.

"Mr. Gu and Miss. Mo, you two are really interesting. You both call me to ask about this matter. Do you all think I'm bad at choosing the protagonists and I will choose them randomly?"

Elmer admitted that he was a common person and would accept some hidden rules. But when it came to work, he had his own attitude.

He would never allow anything bad to happen to his work. His attitude towards Emily was the same as before. He didn't want to ruin his work because of a vase.

Jonas knew well about the director's temper. He figured it out from the director's words that there must be some misunderstanding.

Anyone who had ever been questioned in this way in a professional field would probably be furious. Elmer didn't dare to vent his anger on him. However, what he said indicated that he was very angry now.

"Of course I trust your taste, or I won't cooperate with you. But there is a reason for this thing." Jonas first confirmed that Elmer was capable. But he was undetermined in personality. But he was definitely a top expert in the professional field and had a sharp eye, making a lot of people popular.

As soon as Elmer knew there was a reason, he restrained his anger and said, "No matter what the reason is, Mr. Gu, please trust me. I will try my best to find Miss Mo's work and show her role in the design."

Now the script had been adapted. Everyone was busy, and the casting had also been put on the theme.

As a matter of fact, Elmer had been very busy recently. He had made an appointment with the relevant people in advance, including the lighting engineer and the dresser.

As a grand work, it had to be professional in every aspect.

These people were invited to the dinner tonight.

"Linda absolutely believes you, but it's a misunderstanding. Emily said that she would become the heroine, and Linda was worried that her novel would be ruined."

Even Jonas felt that Emily wasn't the right person for this role. If she really had to act the leading role, Melinda would be tarnished.

Upon hearing this, the director immediately understood what happened. He was shocked at the thought of Director Liu's recommendation of Emily.

It seemed that the woman had talked big. How could she say something like that? What was she thinking on her mind.

"I see. It's just a misunderstanding. Mr. Gu, please tell Miss Mo not to worry about it. I can tell that Emily's not a suitable actress according to my experience,"

said the director. In his eyes, Emily was just a vase. At that time, he remembered that his friend asked him to go over to have a look at the shooting scene of that movie. Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

He happened to see Emily's performance, and he had no idea why his friends had passed that scene. In his opinion, Emily was not good at acting.

Emily was just a beautiful vase without content. Since then, many people in the entertainment circle knew that Elmer was not satisfied with Emily's acting skill.

That was also the reason why Emily failed in getting along with him.

"Director Lin, now that you have said so, I am relieved to hear your reassuring words. It's late, and I won't bother you,"

Jonas said politely and was about to hang up the phone. Elmer had something to tell him, but he thought that he would have opportunity to talk to him about it in the future.

'As long as I can finish this play and do it well, I will not have to worry about other things, won't I?'

Jonas hung up the phone and rubbed his phone with his fingers, his eyes narrowing.

Emily had been banished from the entertainment industry. It was hard to say whether she was capable of something or her company was less strict on her behaviors.

It seemed that he had to do something else. Jonas thought he should have let Emily know that she shouldn't offend him.

He had to protect Melinda. He would not let anyone go easily once he or she annoyed her.

When Jonas went back to the bedroom, he saw that Melinda was still sleeping, but she frowned for some reason. He felt sorry for her and had a sense of powerlessness. But more he needed to find a way to protect Melinda better.

To make Melinda feel that she could rely on him.

After hanging up the phone, the director realized it after all the things were related.

Emily had told Melinda that she would be the leading role of the play. After that, she started to look for him to get the role, for she was afraid that she would be too shameful to fail in getting that role.

Emily was not able to do that, and she just wanted to use dirty rules. It was very common in the entertainment circle to try to do something in order to get the chance to star in plays or movies. He would meet one or two actors in each movie and play he shot.

However, if they used the dirty rules, they normally wanted to shoot more, there would be no one like Emily who was so arrogant and wanted to take the leading role.

If she was of great reputation as a pure and innocent girl in the past, the director might have thought about it. But now, she didn't have anything and he also got a hint from Jonas.

Even if he had to use a newcomer as the leading lady, he would not choose Emily.

"What an ambitious woman!" Elmer sighed. At the same time, he believed that Emily was a resourceful woman. Director Liu didn't say formulae at all last night. After that, he really talked a lot to Elmer for Emily.

At the thought of this, Elmer almost lost trust in front of Jonas because of this woman, and on second thought, Emily must be desperate to save face now, so he decided to play tricks on Emily.

Anyway, it was not his fault. Emily asked for it by herself.

But it took him a lot of effort to deal with this accident. Speaking was a technical work. He wanted to make Emily happy and do more things for him willingly.

As Elmer thought of this, a cunning smile appeared on his face. But at this time, Emily knew nothing about it.
