Harold looked down on Forrest as he studied his expressionless face. However, he still used an
earnest tone to advise him, “Uncle Nathan and the rest have found out about you. Jessica hada big
fight with them because of you. Didn’t you see the news that she was removed from her position as
president? She expanded Snow Corporation with so much hard work and developed the company to its
current scale. In the end, all of the benefits went to Carson. If I were you and if you really love her, I’d
definitely leave quietly so as to not weigh her down.”
Harold thought that Forrest only got involved with Jessica for her influence.
Since she was no longer
the president of Snow Corporation, Forrest would surely panic upon hearing the news.
“So… You’re telling me this… to let me know that Jessica gave up on the company for my sake?”
Forrest’s expressionless face finally tensed. Harold was stunned. He felt that Forrest’s question was
weird. Was that the main point to him? “Yes. Anyway, she can’t even remain in Snow Corporation
because of you. The Snow family will never accept you and Jessica being
together. I’d advise you to give up as soon as possible. The things that don’t belong to you will never be
yours. You and Jessica live in totally different worlds.”
After rubbing salt into Forrest’s wound, Harold left in long strides.
In his opinion, Forrest was an ambitious person, so he would be wise too.
Harold hoped Forrest would leave Jessica as soon as possible. After all, he never expected that
Jessica, who usually seemed like an intelligent person, would be so stupid in relationships. She even
gave up a company for a man.
Since Jessica could not even think straight when she was in love, Harold had to get her.
Forrest remained where he stood in a daze. Although his handsome face was still cold, he felt
overwhelmed.
He knew that Jessica’s resignation had something to do with him from Harold’s words.
In the past, Forrest always thought Jessica did not love him. He even hated her. However, it was only
then that he realized how much Jessica cared about him.
She could even give up Snow Corporation for him. He was really not a true man. Jessica loved him so
much, yet he kept suspecting her and hurt her with many nasty words.
He was not worth her treating him that well.
As Forrest thought about it, his eyes reddened. Then, his phone rang. It was Jessica who called. “ Why
did you come to my company? I was ina meeting just now, so I missed your call. Where are you?”
“i’m at the spot where I dropped you off this morning.” When Forrest heard her voice, he could not keep
calm. “What time are you getting off work? I have a lot of things to say to you.”
“Are you going to ask me about my resignation?” Jessica said in a low voice. “I just feel exhausted and
want to rest. Besides, Carson isn’t young anymore. I hope he can be more mature after I leave—”
“Alright. Stop making excuses. I’m not a fool.” Forrest interrupted Jessica agitatedly. The more she
explained, the more she was covering things up. “I know everything. Did you resign because you had a
fight with your parents about me?” “…”
Jessica was taken aback. Although that was partially the reason, how did he find out? It seemed that
he had added quite a bit of his imagination too.
Hearing the silence on the other side of the call, Forrest was sure of it. He shouted in frustration, “
Jessica, why are you so foolish? Is it worth doing this for me? I haven’t been treating you well. I even
hurt you, got angry at you, and misunderstood you. I’m not worth you doing this for me at all.”
“…”
How did Forrest have such self-awareness all of a sudden? Jessica did not know what to say.
However, she did not know that Forrest became even more flustered with her silence. “Jessica, I’ve
figured everything out. I shouldn’t have kept hating you in the past. I’ve never stood in your perspective
to think about everything. Let’s let bygones be bygones, okay? I swear that no matter who you are or
what your identity is in the future, I… I’L] never leave you.”
After Forrest spoke, he went silent as well. That was because his face was blushing.
He had always been more of a reserved person. He rarely revealed his inner thoughts.
He was just touched at this moment because of Jessica.
