“It’s fine if he doesn’t get married,” Jerry suddenly interrupted. “After Lynch Corporation’s incident, I
contacted Mr. Childs several times. I’d understand if he couldn’t help, but he even deliberately ignored
my calls. He said he was afraid I would borrow money from him. No matter how good Stacey is, having
such parents as in -laws would be troublesome in the future. They might even drag their daughter
down.”
Freya nodded. “The Childs family wouldn’t have agreed to Stacey’s marriage with Forrest if it weren’t
profitable. It’d be fine if he likes her, but it doesn’t seem like he does. There’s no need to do this for the
sake of repaying a favor.”
“Your son has already agreed to get married. Are you worried that there are no women in Canberra?”
Jerry reminded his wife. “You’ve already waited for years. You don’t need to rush it now.”
Mrs. Lynch sighed. She knew that what they said was reasonable, but she thought that she could
finally see her son get married. It was quite disappointing.
Forrest kept his head down and ate his breakfast.
After eating, he drove his car to the registry office.
Jessica drove over in a black Bentley. When she came down from the car, she was dressed in light-
colored jeans that wrapped around her long legs, a white printed shirt, and a rich green silk shawl. She
did not look as sharp and strong as when she was doing business. Even so, her noble aura could not
be concealed.
Forrest’s eyes darkened slightly as he walked over with an indifferent face.
“Let’s go.” Jessica turned around and walked inside. However, after taking a few steps, she found that
Forrest was not following her. He stood a few steps away, his six feet two body dressed in a suit.
“When will you let Lynch Corporation go?” Forrest looked at her coldly.
“I’ll make the call immediately after we get the license.” Jessica’s bright eyes looked back at him.
“Don’t regret this, Jessica.” Forrest was slightly annoyed by her stare. “Even if you force me to marry
you, I won’t like you.”
“…It’s fine. I just want you.” Jessica smiled faintly.
“…”
It was like punching cotton.
Forrest was powerless. It was a feeling he only had when facing Jessica.
“Let’s go.”
Jessica took the initiative to hold his hand.
The two were like an ordinary couple. Today was not a special day, so there were not many people in
the hall. Jessica also seemed to have notified them in advance. The clerk was not that surprised when
he saw the names on their IDs, but he secretly glanced at them when stamping the certificate.
Soon, they got their marriage license.
Forrest was in a trance for a moment when he saw the marriage license in his hand.
When he came back from studying abroad, he had fantasized too many times about them getting a
marriage license. It was only when he heard that she was married that he knew it was no longer
possible for them.
Unexpectedly, many years later and after a few twists and turns…
He did not want to think about it anymore and quickly stuffed the license into his pants pocket.
As soon as he turned around, he found Jessica looking down at their wedding photo intently.
A wave of annoyance welled up in his heart. “What are you looking at? It’s not the first time you’ve
gotten a marriage license.”
Jessica’s arm stiffened. She slowly put away the license and said, “Forrest, whether you like it or not,
you have to accept the fact that we’re married now. I hope you can keep your distance from the
opposite s*x in the future. I’m narrow-minded and don’t want to see my husband getting involved with
women outside.”
Forrest usually did not like to contact women in private anyway. There were things that he would not do
even without her reminder, but he was inexplicably annoyed when he heard her words. “Jessica Snow,
you’re someone who has betrayed a relationship before. What right do you have to control me?”
