Chapter 2454

“Oh, my daughter. I told you not to work in Lynch Corporation, yet you insisted on doing it. We have a
company too.” Mrs. Childs was heartbroken. “Forrest, I don’t care about anything else, but you have to
bear the responsibility for this. My daughter got injured at work, and it was because she wanted to save
you.”

Stacey promptly pulled her mother’s hand. “Mom, I did it voluntarily…”

“Stop talking.” Mrs. Childs glared at her daughter, infuriated. “Who told you to be a heroine? If the glass
had fallen on your face, your life would be ruined. Having said that, the injuries on your leg aren’t any
better. It takes several months for fractures to heal. With scars on your legs, you won’t be able to wear
dresses during summer, and I’m sure your future husband won’t be able to stand the sight of them
when he spots them in the future.”

Stacey shrunk her neck unhappily.

Then, Forrest said composedly, “Our company will bear the compensation, including the medical fees
and mental distress caused. Since Assistant Childs is injured because of me, I’ll personally make it up
to her. I’ll try my best to get her a doctor to treat the scars on her legs. Besides that, I owe the Childs
family a favor.”

“A favor? Do you think I’m concerned about the favor?” Mrs. Childs said angrily, “My daughter is
precious, and we’re not bothered about the money.”

That put Forrest in a difficult position.

He never thought that Stacey would be from the Childs family. If he had known it earlier, he would not
have accepted her into the company.



Although he was grateful that Stacey saved him this time, he wanted to avoid trouble following the
incident.

“So… what do you want me to do?” Forrest asked directly. He did not want to beat around the bush.

Mrs. Childs blinked her eyes while Mr. Child said, “I haven’t decided on it. Let me think it over for two
days.”







He did not stay there for long. Since there was still some work to handle in the industrial park, he took
his leave first.

Stacey lowered her eyes in disappointment as she watched him leave. Everyone in the office said that
Forrest was a cold-hearted person, and it was true. Stacey had saved him, yet he was still indifferent to
her.

Mrs. Childs glanced at her daughter’s expression before turning her eyes to her husband in a huff.
“Why didn’t you tell him directly that we don’t need his compensation and that we only want him to
marry our daughter?”

“If we said it in such a hurry, our motive would’ve seemed very obvious,” Mr. Childs explained.

Stacey was startled. “Dad, Mom, you’re trying to make President Lynch marry me because of this
incident? This-“



“Aren’t you fond of him? You went to his company to be his assistant, and now you even injured your
legs so badly to save him. Who else would marry you if not him?” Mrs. Childs glowered at Stacey.

Stacey murmured, “But didn’t you both disagree with it previously? You said that the Lynch family
hasn’t been in Canberra for too long and that they have a low social standing…”

“Things are different now. Think about it. If the prime minister’s family approves of his sister getting
together with the prime minister’s son, they’re very likely to get married. Even if they don’t get married,
the Lynch family will benefit quite a lot.”

Mr. Childs said, “I can tell that the Snow family sides with the Lynch family. Otherwise, the Lynch family
would not have gotten the best land for development and moved here within half a year. What’s more,
Forrest’s ability to develop Lynch Corporation, which was originally situated in Melbourne, shows that
he’s experienced. Based on this point, he’s much better than other wealthy young men in Canberra.
Didn’t you say that Forrest went abroad some time ago and has already reached an agreement to
collaborate with a few car companies? A person who’s competent, lucky, and has a powerful
background will make it to the list of the world’s top wealthy people one day.”

“Dad, I’ve long told you that he’s competent.”

Stacey was pleased to hear her parents praising the person who she had a crush on.
