Best Revenge: Being My Ex-Boyfriend’s Aunt novel Chapter 2551

Forrest stared at Jessica with a grim expression. "Didn't you say you'd be eating at a social function tonight?"

"After some thought, I decided not to go. I turned it down." Jessica blinked.

“You could’ve called me or ordered food delivery." Forrest told her off huffily," Worst comes to the worst, you could've hired someone to cook for you or return to the Snow family's old residence. You’re already an adult. When I wasn't around, you chose to have instant noodles."

"Have you told your parents about it?” Jessica showed a hint of nervousness. "Are they alright with it?”

"Mm. I said that I assaulted you when you were drunk, so I have to be responsible." Forrest threw a knowing glance at her. "But I didn't tell them that you forced me to marry you.
