The Lynch family and the Childs family soon proposed a schedule for the wedding.
Mrs. Childs even had someone pick the wedding date. "I found out that next week, the 15th, is a good day. Let's set it as the wedding date.”
Forrest subconsciously frowned. "Assistant Childs' legs won't be fully recovered by then.”
"The doctor said she can only walk properly at least after 100 days. That means she'll only recover at the end of the year. That’s a little too long." Mrs. Childs paused for a moment before she continued, "Since you both are getting married soon, you can directly address her as Stacey."
"That's right, Forrest."
Stacey, who was on the bed, summoned her courage to look at him. "Just call me Stacey from now on."
Forrest replied in the affirmative and looked down.
"15th it is, then," Mrs. Lynch responded. She was aware of the Childs family’s concern. They wanted to avoid the problems that might incur a delay, and as Forrest's mother, Mrs. Lynch was worried that Forrest would go back on his word. After all, getting him to agree to the marriage was not easy. "Do you have any requirements on the wedding room, dowry, and so on?" "Let's go outside and discuss so that the two kids can talk. By the way, Forrest, Stacey needs to go for a check-up later. Can you please take her for that?"
After that, Mrs. Childs shot a look at Mrs. Lynch.
Mrs. Lynch grasped Mrs. Childs’ meaning within a second. The two of them then immediately pulled each other's hands and left.
The ward suddenly fell quiet. Somehow, Stacy started to become nervous. She had always been polite toward Forrest.
However, now that they suddenly got together, she was a little excited and worried at the same time. "I’m sorry, Forrest. I didn't save you to make you responsible for me. But with the situation that day, I instinctively wanted to make sure you were safe..."
She bit her tongue and gazed at him with a hint of shyness in her eyes.
"Anyhow, I need to thank you." Forrest was calm. "But... I'm curious about something. Have I ever seen you before you applied to work in Lynch Corporation?"
