Chapter 2488

“Aren’t you going to tell me about the project in Country F?” Jessica interrupted him.

Harold pursed his lips, upset. He was not in the mood to talk about the project now, but he also knew
that the hastier he was at this time, the more Jessica would be disgusted with him.She had never been
an ordinary woman.

After lunch, Jessica sent a message to Forrest: [I have plans for dinner tonight. I won’t be going back to
sleep.]

Actually, the dinner plans were secondary. The most important thing was that she wanted to have a
good rest tonight.

If she got tossed around by him anymore, she might not even be able to come to the company
tomorrow.

Soon, Forrest called and said in a frigid tone, “ Jessica Snow, what’s the meaning of this? You don’t
allow me to go back to Lynch Residence to sleep, but you can stay out whenever you want? What do
you take this house for? What do you take me for? I’m warning you, if you don’t come back tonight, I
won’t be sleeping there anymore either.”

Jessica felt her head hurt.

She thought that after they got married, Forrest might not even bother to touch her.

She never thought that she would be tormented by him to the point where she was afraid of doing it.
“I’m not staying out on purpose, but I’Il be busy until late tonight. The place I’m having dinner is quite
far from your place. It’s too much trouble to take the expressway after I’m done, so I just plan to rest at
my own place tonight.” Jessica did not dare to tell the truth and simply lied.



Forrest scoffed coldly. “Sure. In that case, I’ll also have to socialize until very late tomorrow. I won’t be
going back to the apartment to sleep.”

He hung up the call without another word.



Jessica looked at her phone screen and felt troubled, which was rare for her.

In the end, she compromised and sent him another text message: [Okay, I’ll come back to sleep
tonight.]

Forrest’s thin lips could not help but curl up when he looked at the message on his phone.

He could correct her little mannerisms.

The secretary who came in to deliver documents saw Forrest’s lips curled into a smile and felt like he
had just seen a ghost.

He must have been mistaken. Why did it seem like there was an air of smugness around the
president?

The secretary placed the files down and hurriedly went back to the secretaries’ office to share this
piece of gossip with his colleagues. “My goodness, I just saw the president looking at his phone in the
office while smiling like this.”

Then, he mimicked the expression.

A female secretary was also frightened by the sight of it. “No way. Isn’t the president facially
paralyzed?”



“Who said he’s facially paralyzed? President Lynch just doesn’t like to smile.”

“Oh, I always thought President Lynch had facial paralysis. His expression remained the same even
when he got angry previously.”

“Do you think the president is in love?”

“Thaven’t heard of anything like that. Which woman would be awesome enough to make President
Lynch smile?”

“Could it be Assistant Childs? I heard that they’re getting married.”

“No way. Assistant Childs has worked for President Lynch for so long, but he treats her the same way
he treats me, and I’ma guy.”

“I don’t know who it is either. In any case, I really admire that person. Of course, I don’t even know if
that person is a man or woman, or even a human being…”

The others, “…”

Could it be that President Lynch’s beloved… was not a person?
