Under Forrest's dark gaze, Jessica felt awkward. "What are you trying to say?"
"Did you really... resign?" Forrest asked with a hoarse voice.
"Mm. I'm currently handing over my job to someone else. After two days, I won't need to go to work anymore.”
Jessica fastened the seat belt. Then, she noticed that the gaze of the man beside her became even more unstable. “In the future, you..."
After pausing for a moment, Forrest pursed his thin lips in annoyance. "Did you actually resign because of me?"
At the sight of his distressed look, Jessica somehow found it amusing. Forrest had asked the same question numerous times today. "Yeah. After my parents learned about it, they called me over and gave me a piece of their mind. Considering my identity, they might think that they should be the ones deciding on what kind of man I should marry. They were afraid that I would be deceived because I'm the president of Snow Corporation, so I resigned straight away."
Forrest was astounded for quite a while. He had probably guessed what her parents said. However, he found Jessica’s direct manner unbelievable. "Can you bear to leave Snow Corporation? Ever since you graduated, you've put a lot of effort into Snow Corporation..." "In fact, I prefer freedom to power," Jessica explained solemnly.
At that point, Forrest believed everything Ryan had said.
Jessica snatched the position from Rodney just so she could be with Forrest after she gained freedom.
Nevertheless, Forrest was not the sort who was expressive when it came to relationships.
Especially after he had been single for a long time. He had become a little dull.
He could only express himself by grasping her hand firmly.
"What are you doing? My hand hurts," Jessica suddenly yelled in pain.
