“Assistant Childs.”
Someone in the secretaries’ office suddenly shouted in a panic.Everyone turned around to find Stacey
standing in the doorway, holding crutches.
“President Lynch… has a girlfriend?” Stacey asked with difficulty.
She did not dare to believe it. She had only been resting for a few days, but Forrest already hada
woman by his side?
“No, we made it up.” The chief secretary hurriedly shook his head. “Assistant Childs, aren’t you
supposed to be resting at home?”
Stacey just wanted to look for Forrest for something.
However, when she heard their words, another thought appeared in her mind. “President Lynch
granted me a few days’ leave, but I have nothing to do at home these days, so I plan to come back to
work. I can still work on paperwork.” The crowd looked at the cast on her foot and did not know what to
say.
“Well… you can go ask the president, then.” A secretary smiled guiltily. He was a little speechless.
Stacey was already hurt but refused to rest at home. She came out to work instead. What if something
bad happened? With the Childs family’s character, what if they wanted the president to compensate
them with another storefront?
No matter how rich the president was, he could not do that.
Stacey nodded and went into Forrest’s office on her crutches.
“Come in.”
The man’s low and cold voice rang out.
Stacey took a deep breath, opened the door, and limped in.
When Forrest looked up and saw the person who came in, consternation flashed in his eyes for a brief
moment. Then, he got up and placed a chair in front of Stacey.
“Thank you.” Stacey glanced nervously at the handsome face in front of her and really hated her
parents.
If they had not acted on their own, she and Forrest would have been talking about marriage right now.
It would not be like this…
“Are you feeling better?” Forrest asked casually.
Stacey was stunned at the question. Was she supposed to say yes or no? If she said yes, it would
make it seem as if her injury was not serious. If she said no, what if Forrest did not let her come back to
the company?
After thinking about it, Stacey did not answer the question. “President Lynch, I’m here for this…” Stacey
handed over the document in her hand. “ This is too valuable, so I can’t accept it. I didn’t even know
about my mother accepting these storefronts as compensation. She made the decision herself. I’ve
even been quarreling with my parents over this in the past few days. What will others think of me if I
accept the storefronts? I chose to save you. Besides, my parents aren’t qualified to make decisions for
me.”
