Chapter 2537
“You’re the one who’s out of your mind. Didn’t you notice the glow on President Lynch’s cold face? It must be
skincare.”
“Damn. Did President Lynch wake up on the wrong side of the bed? I can’t believe he’d care for his skin.”
“I’m sure President Lynch has a girlfriend.”
"...."
An employee just so happened to be sending a document to the secretary’s room and overheard the conversation.
Soon after, the news traveled to the senior executives of Lynch Corporation.
Even Jerry heard about the matter from his secretary. Coincidentally, Forrest had come to report his work to Jerry,
who then looked his son over for a while. Although he had not seen his son for only a few days, he felt that Forrest
was somehow different. As his father, Jerry could sense that his son was not as cold and stern as he used to be,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteven though he still maintained a cold expression.
“Dad, President Watson has agreed to renew the contract with us, and we’ve set the price, which is slightly cheaper
than last year. Do you want to take a look at the contract-”
“No need. You handle the company’s matters better than I do, so you can decide on your own.”
Jerry waved his hand and asked with a laugh, “ Are you still not going to come home to sleep?”
“Today is President Callan’s birthday...” Forrest held back.
“It seems like you’re serious this time.” Jerry nodded. “But why didn’t you mention having met a girl you’re
interested in when you decided to marry Stacey earlier? Did you only meet the girl recently, or have you known her
for a long time?”
After some thought, Forrest decided to explain himself a little to his father. “She was my girlfriend when I studied
abroad. We broke up after returning home, but we’ve kept in touch on and off for the last two years...”
Jerry got the point but was quite surprised. He did not expect his son to be so loyal. “So you didn’t date or get
married over the years only because you couldn’t get over your first love, huh?”
“Yeah.” Forrest nodded in acknowledgment. “Alright then.” Jerry did not ask further. “ What matters is that your
girlfriend has a clean family background and is easy to get along with. Other conditions come next. Since you’ve
known her for so long and confirmed your relationship, bring her home soon and get engaged to her. You can’t
have her stay with you without being in a proper relationship. Pick a time and let us meet with your girlfriend’s
parents.”
“I know.” Forrest’s thin lips moved. He wanted to tell his father the truth so badly, but he was afraid that the latter
had not braced himself for it yet.
Should Forrest... wait first?
Should he only bring Jessica home after she got pregnant?
When Forrest returned to the office, he dialed Freya’s number. “Can you make yourself available this afternoon? I
need your help.” “Oh, God. Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed today? I can’t believe you’ re asking me
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfor help.” Freya sounded astonished. “Choose a pair of rings for me,” Forrest said directly. He had spent a long time
choosing the rings, but there were too many styles of rings to choose from that he could not decide. What was
more, he was sure that he had poor taste.
On the other end, Freya screamed in excitement, “Whoa. Are you going to propose to Jessica?”
"...."
Forrest furrowed his brows. “As a girl, you should be elegant.”
“Let me be. Anyway, I don’t behave like this in front of Ryan.” Freya snorted. “Having said that, your progress is
quick. My sister-in-law was still Stacey the other day, and now, it’s a different one. I wonder who said you didn’t like
her anymore? Do men like to have eggs on their faces?”
“Are you available or not?” Forrest’s voice gradually turned icy.
“Yes, yes. I’ve never seen people beg this way.” Freya teased him in a strange manner. “ You can come and pick me
up at 1:00 p.m. I’m also available during lunch break.”
“Okay.”
After lunch, Forrest drove to Freycatheli to pick her sister up.
“Forrest, can you tell me your budget for the rings?” Freya asked after getting in the car.
“There’s no limit,” Forrest said nonchalantly.
