In the evening, Forrest returned to the Lynch family’s villa in a gloomy mood.
Freya was sitting cross-legged on the sofa, eating potato chips and looking at her phone. She had
heard about the Lynch family’s situation recently. When she saw her brother come back, she
immediately sat up. “Forrest, how did your talk with Sharon Group go? Did they make things hard? Did
our family offend someone? I think Dad is so worried these days that his hair is falling out in clumps.”
Forrest looked at his sister’s simple expression with helplessness. “I have a general idea about what’s
going on. I’ll resolve it as soon as possible.”
“Oh, okay. I was just thinking about asking Cathy to help if it’s too tricky,” Freya mumbled. “Her Mom is
quite capable abroad. Even Sharon Company’s boss would have to show her some respect.”
Forrest’s brows moved slightly. He was just about to say something but suppressed his words. “Her
relationship with Sheryl isn’t that good. She has already helped quite a lot with Freycatheli. Catherine
won’t be comfortable either if you ask for too much. Besides… she has already helped you enough.”
“Fine, I get it. It’s just an option if we’re left with no other choice. I can’t just watch as Lynch Corporation
falls…” Freya pouted bitterly.
“You didn’t ask Ryan for help, right?” Forrest suddenly asked in a low voice.
“Nope. Dad didn’t let me. I’m well aware of your things. Ryan did take the initiative to mention it and
said that he would help us investigate, but it seems to be a little tricky…”
“Just tell him to focus on his studies. I’ve already found a solution for this.”
Forrest said in a complicated tone.
“Really? You’re amazing, Forrest.” Freya’s eyes lit up a s she looked at him with an adoring face.
Forrest, “…”
He really did not want to say that his solution to this matter was selling his body.
It was really… too humiliating.
His handsome face grew a few degrees colder, so he stopped looking at her and went upstairs
expressionlessly.
Freya was baffled. If it were Ryan, he would not be able to handle how sweet she was when she
praised him, but her brother… Forget it, there was a reason why he was single.
Even now, she did not understand. Besides that face, what did her brother have that attracted women?
Was there something wrong with Jessica’s eyes?
….
The next day.
Forrest secretly took the documents he needed.
When he went downstairs for breakfast, Jerry asked, “Freya said you found a solution. Is that true?”
“Yeah, I found a breakthrough with Sharon Company,” Forrest answered vaguely. “By the way, I’ve
contacted the Childs family. The engagement is off.”
“What?” Mrs. Lynch was stunned for a while before getting angry. “Did they take the initiative to cancel
the engagement because they heard about what’s going on with Lynch Corporation?”
“I brought it up myself, and the Childs family agreed.”
Forrest did not mention the two storefronts so as not to upset his parents. He had privately invested in
the storefronts anyway.
Jerry was silent, but Mrs. Lynch was furious. “Why did you take the initiative to cancel the
engagement? Are you that resistant to getting married? Are you planning to be a bachelor for the rest
of your life?”
“Mom, the Childs family wouldn’t agree to the marriage if Lynch Corporation can’t overcome this
anyway,” Forrest interrupted in a soft voice. “I just mentioned it yesterday and Mrs. Childs agreed to it
very quickly.”
“I knew that the Childs family was snobbish. But you said that our family would be able to tide this
through…”
