Forrest rejected indifferently. "More importantly, Assistant Childs, I'm not into you. So, I don't see why I should tolerate your parents for your sake. Since I've made it up to you, I don’t owe you anymore."
He said it in a polite manner, hoping that Stacey had some self-awareness.
"Assistant Childs, it was very kind of you to save me, and I'm thankful to you. But please don't force me with your kindness and make me regret being rescued by you. When you were admitted to the hospital, your parents initially insisted on me marrying you to return the favor. You claim that you don’t want any commercial properties. But what if your parents come looking for me using this reason again after some time?"
Stacey was so embarrassed that she almost shed tears. “No, that won't happen...'
"I'm sorry, but I don't want anything unexpected to happen. I don't want to be involved with the Childs family either. I'll get married and give birth to children one day. I don't want my wife to be unhappy over this matter.”
After Forrest finished speaking, he sat on the leather seat for a while. He believed that he had made things clear enough.
Moreover, he was already married to Jessica.
Although he still hated Jessica, he had his own principles and boundaries. Given that he was married, he would not wrong his other half.
"1-1 got it." Stacey’s eyes twitched. She was well aware that Forrest would be fed up with her if she continued to speak.
"Well... President Lynch, my injury has actually healed. I think I can come back to work. With my ability, I can do some simple administrative tasks. It's really boring to stay at home."
Forrest's eyes settled on her crutches. “No. In your current state, you can’t come back to work."
