Semua Bab Let Me Go, Mr. Hill!: Bab 2531 - Bab 2540

Would Forrest have given up so easily?He would not.When he was young, he put relationships as his top priority despite his incompetence in saying honeyed words.He felt that no one could separate a couple who was truly in love with each other.When he thought about it carefully, he realized that Jessica was more mature and sensible than he was back then.“Tell me. After you were married… did he treat you well?”Forrest suddenly gripped her hand tightly with his eyes burning in the dark.This question had been lingering in his mind for what seemed like ages.He had always been jealous of that person. He did not even want to hear that person’s name. At this point, he personally brought it up instead.Jessica was stunned. “Jordan was fine. He was a gentle and polite person. But when I married him, he was already in poor health and bedridden. He had recovered for two months, but he caught a cold again when winter came. Then, he passed away in less than two years. His family memb

“Yeah. You’re right.”Forrest answered frankly, “If you don’t want to live at my place, I can come and stay with you.”After Forrest arrived at Jessica’s neighborhood, he opened the trunk to reveal a few bags of ingredients inside.Jessica threw a look at the ingredients. “When did you buy them?”“I went to the hypermarket while waiting for you.” Forrest lifted the bags with his strong arms.Once Jessica arrived home, she sat on the couch to rest. She was exhausted from using her brain all day.Forrest rolled up his sleeves and began to cook. He knew that she had not been feeling well the past few days, so he purposely cooked some chicken soup.While the soup was simmering, Mrs. Lynch gave Forrest a call. “Are you not planning to come home to have dinner and sleep?”“...Yeah,” Forrest replied with a deep voice.Mrs. Lynch was not disappointed. In fact, she was pleased. “Are you going to be living in the apartment? Do you want me to go over to visit you tomorrow?”She could no

Jessica just let Forrest do what he wanted. Given that her hair was long and thick, it was time-consuming to dry it. While he was drying her hair, she could use her phone to watch the news regarding the international economy.After he dried her hair, she lifted her head and saw her tidy hair through the mirror. Her pink lips curled up into a smile. “Not bad. You must’ve helped many girls dry their hair over the years.”“No.” Forrest denied it cautiously. “I’ve never dried anyone’s hair ever since I broke up with you.”“But you had a girlfriend and nearly married… that secretary some time ago.” Jessica glared at Forrest. She might look indifferent to it on the outside, but she had kept it to heart.“You were married before as well,” Forrest argued. Jessica was at a loss for words.“Come. Let me apply some cream for you.” Forrest picked her up and placed her on the bed. Then, he took out a tube of cream.At first glance, Jessica could recognize that the cream was prescribed by th

Freya’s pretty face instantly lit up with admiration. “Will you buy the rings even if they cost a few hundred million dollars?” “Yeah.”“...”Freya darted a look at the pink diamond in her hand, which Ryan gifted her. Suddenly, she felt a great admiration for Jessica. “Forrest, why are you suddenly treating Jessica so well? I heard she resigned from the position of the president yesterday. Is that true?”“Yeah.” Forrest kept quiet for a few seconds before he added, “Her parents have found out about our relationship, and she left Snow Corporation because of me.”“Oh, God.” Now, Freya was impressed. “Is Jessica a fool? She must be out of her mind to abandon Snow Corporation for a man. Doesn’t she know that career is something she should rely on at this age? How senile of her.” Forrest was speechless.Was Freya his biological sister?Having sensed her brother’s gloomy gaze, Freya pouted. “I’m telling the truth.”“Ryan also gave up on a great position in the executive council be

Mr. Childs said lazily, “If you’re unwilling to help me out, I’ll have no choice but to tell people that you dissolved your marriage with my daughter to be a social climber. Your transfer of the shopfront is the best evidence. Do you think everyone in Canberra will think highly of you then? You might not care about other people’s views, but if this reaches the Snow family’s ear, they’ll think that you’re scheming and that you want to play up to them. Plus, if Jessica snatches someone’s man, I’m afraid it’ll be an embarrassment to her too.”Forrest had met many despicable people in his life.Nevertheless, he had never met a wealthy family as despicable as the Childs.He initially wanted to return the favor to Stacey by providing her with two storefronts, but he had never thought that the storefronts would end up as a tool for them to threaten him.Sure enough, he should not have been kind.“Okay. I’ll go back and discuss it with Jessica. Having said that, I have no idea if I’m powe
