Chapter 279 Missing


    Jonas kept silent when he heard what Melinda said, and then drove the car silently. Melinda didn''t


    know whether he listened to her or not, and she was worried and helpless.


    Melinda was well aware that he may call to care about her, but he was indeed interrupting her work.


    The two silently drove the car into the mansion. When they arrived home, Melinda, who was very


    hungry, suddenly lost her appetite. Seeing this, Jonas had no choice but topromise. "I''ll pay


    attention to it in the future," he said.


    He could pay attention to it, but it didn''t mean that he wouldn''t call her again. He was in aplex


    mood now, but Melinda didn''t think that much. She was a little happy to hear that from Jonas.


    "What are you two whispering about? Come here and have dinner." Queena saw them standing at the


    door for a long time and couldn''t help but greet them.


    "Coming." Jonas held her hand and led Melinda back to their bedroom. After they got changed, they


    came back to the dining room. Nelson was still sitting in the seat of honor. All the dishes were ced


    on the table by the servants.


    Melinda noticed the time on the wall by chance, and felt a little guilty. She was the one who caused the


    whole family to have dinner sote.


    "Why did you work overtime on the first day? You must be tired." Nelson asked a servant to make a


    soup for Melinda. The steaming soup was slowly ced in front of her.


    "I''m fine. Time flies fast when working."


    If she stayed at home for a day, she didn''t know what she would think. But as long as she was busy


    with work, she had no mood to think about those things.


    "But you should also take care of yourself," Queena said and Melinda nodded quietly. Sitting aside,


    Yulia watched them, and felt more and more ipatible with this family.


    At this point, she suddenly began to question herself why she wanted to stay in such a family with no


    feelings.


    But she knew better that she didn''t want to live a miserable life like her mother.


    Melinda was really tired after a long day. She didn''t even dry her hair after washing her face and rinsed


    her mouth. She just leaned on the bed and fell asleep. Seeing this, Jonas sighed in his heart and felt


    that Melinda was like a child.


    He would protect her.


    The next day, Melinda got off the bed early due to Jonas''s call. With the tension of the previous day,


    she did not stay in bed today, but was in a trance.


    Jonas was really worried that she might fall down.


    "Cheer up. Do you still know where thepany is?" Jonas patted gently on Melinda''s cheek. Melinda


    shook her head and pointed at thepany.


    "Here we are."


    As Melinda said, she unbuckled her seat belt and was about to get out of the car. However, Jonas


    looked straight in the eyes of her, while holding the hand of her.


    "I have a dinner appointment tonight. I can''t pick you up. Don''t forget to call the driver."


    Since Jonas hadn''t shown up in the dinner for a long time, there was inevitably a lot of gossip outside.


    And the big customer was invited today, so it was hard to decline.


    Melinda was taken aback, but soon she nodded, indicating that she knew it. Then she got out of the


    car. With a somewhat gloomy expression on the face of Jonas, he felt that she was somewhat


    unromantic.


    Weren''t the writers all romantic? ''Mydy is a little different, '' he thought to himself. Then he saw


    Melinda turned around. Excitement appeared on Jonas''s face.


    "Don''t drink too much. Don''t smoke!" Melinda ordered seriously as she walked closer step by step.


    As soon as Melinda finished her words, she seemed to feel that she was going to bete. She rushed


    into thepany in a hurry, leaving Jonas there in a total mess. Then he had a feeling that he must


    keep the words that Linda had said.


    Melinda came to thepany on time. This situation had rarely happened before and she felt a little


    depressed.


    The whispers in the office became quiet as soon as they saw Melindae in. After walking to her


    seat, Melinda found a bunch of flowers on the top, which was the baby''s breath she liked, little by little,


    which looked very cute, bright and full of vitality.


    She was looking for the card in the bouquet of flowers before her cellphone rang. The man who had


    just left was gently asking on the phone, "Do you like the flowers this morning?"


    "This is from you?"


    Melinda didn''t expect that Jonas had such an interest. Hearing what she said, Jonas pulled a long face


    and pretended to be angry, "Otherwise, who do you want to be sent by?"


    "My admirer, of course," Melinda teased him. The more she looked at the bunch of baby''s breath, the


    much happier she was. The expression on Jonas''s face could only be described as dark.


    Then he sensed the banter in Melinda''s words. He rolled his eyes and said, "I am your admirer, aren''t


    I?"


    Melinda had to admit that she liked his flirt. It made her cheek blush. Since she was delicate, she


    looked sweeter.


    "I like the flowers. Don''t call me if you are still driving."


    Thinking that Jonas was still on the way, Melinda got a little worried. Jonas enjoyed the feeling that he


    was cared by Melinda, and he hung up the phone obediently.


    However, the staff of the department made another several versions of the news about the flowers that


    Melinda received.


    It was still a busy day. Melinda was the busiest person in the office. She was in a good mood these


    days. Her inspiration was also good. As a result, she wrote three articles in a short time.


    Such an efficiency, Melinda was very worried about the quality of the articles, but it was all checked


    through.


    Victor had noticed Melinda''s true feelings, so he had warned those people from the very beginning that


    did not find fault with Melinda''s articles.


    Catching up on lost work was like catching up on homework. Every day, Melinda thought those articles


    and her head began to ache.


    She went homete in the evening. There was no one else in the office. After cleaning up, Melinda left


    thepany. Before she left, the security guard looked at her for a while.


    Thepany was near the street. After walking that way, Melinda called the driver.


    Not far away, a white minibus began to fast drive towards Melinda. Before Melinda could take out her


    mobile phone to call, she was held by someone.


    "Who are you? Let go of me! Help... Wu..."


    Two men instantly got off the minibus, one from the left and the other from the right, and held Melinda


    towards the minibus. Melinda struggled hard, trying to call for help, but her mouth was covered by


    someone.

    The person in the minibus watching this scene with satisfaction, and the person made a gesture to the


    people outside. Then the two men put Melinda in the back seat, covering her eyes.


    After a long time of gasping, Melinda''s hands were already tied on the ropes.


    She was left inplete darkness, a sense of insecurity overwhelmed her. Those men''s words had an


    ent, and were even obscure, and Melinda could not understand them at all.


    "Don''t forget to make it clean." Emily''s voice sounded so familiar in the darkness that Melinda couldn''t


    help clenching her fists. She didn''t expect that Emily came back to hurt her.


    This woman was simply detestable.


    The minibus started and went in an unknown direction. Now, Melinda only hoped that Jonas could find


    her as soon as possible. Emily was a lunatic, and she could not guess what she was going to do.


    At first, Melinda still tried to remember the route, but gradually she became more and more exhausted.


    She had no idea where she was, only knew that she was probably out of the city far away.


    Jonas was having dinner with his customers, and he felt somewhat uneasy. After drinking with them for


    a while, he made an excuse to call Melinda outside the box to check if Melinda went home yet.


    No one answered the phone in a long time. Jonas called the driver who picked up Melinda. The driver


    also said that he had not received her call and had been waiting near herpany.


    The anxiety in Jonas''s heart began to expand, and then he thought that Melinda might take a taxi to go


    home, but Queena also said that she didn''t see Melinda.


    "Ted, tell them I have something important to do and we will leave first." Jonas was now feeling that


    something was wrong. ording to the rules in the business world, they should be passed before


    leaving. Jonas didn''t need to worry about others since he had high status.


    Seeing that his face was serious, Ted did as he said without hesitation. Thinking for a while, Jonas


    called Victor.


    "Are you in thepany now?" Jonas came straight to the point,pletely ignoring the shock of the


    person at the other side.


    In fact, Victor was still in shock by Jonas''s phone call with him. He answered honestly after hearing his


    words, and he had already gone home.


    "Who is still in thepany?" Jonas felt very irritated. At this time, he was driving to thepany


    where Melinda worked.


    Victor realized that there must be something wrong with the way Jonas talked to him, and asked the


    reason. Knowing that he couldn''t get in touch with Melinda, Victor sent people in hispany to check.


    However, the security said that Melinda had left thepany a long time ago.


    "Melinda has left. I don''t know where she is either," Victor said helplessly. He wanted to help him but


    realized his identity. Atst, he said nothing.


    Jonas pulled over in the street. Thinking about all the things carefully, he finally called a friend who


    worked in the police station.


    "Missing? Are you sure it''s not that she doesn''t want to contact you?" the man answered the phone


    impatiently. He thought that since the rtionship between Jonas and Melinda was very awkward, it


    was more likely that Melinda was at odds with him.


    "It''s not the right time to make a joke with you. I think that something is wrong with Linda," said Jonas.


    He felt very uneasy and guessed that Melinda must be very scared now.


    And it was dangerous too!


    Hearing this, the man didn''t dare to joke any more. He quickly arranged his men to investigate.


    Emily was the only enemy of Melinda. Jonas took out his phone and dialed the number which had been


    deleted for a long time.


    Then the phone was hung up after only one ring!


    He was pretty sure that it was Emily who did this.
