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.”

“That’s too troublesome. Making a call to order food is troublesome too. I even need to go downstairs
and pick it up.”

Jessica’s pretty brows revealed a trace of fatigue. Having worked the entire day, she felt lazy.
Sometimes, she had to get on a conference call in the middle of the night because of her overseas
company, so she hardly had time. Moreover, she had been busy with the handover process in the past
few days. As Carson was still inexperienced, he could not handle a lot of matters. As she guided him
step by step, she nearly wanted to tell him off.

After returning home, she just wanted to take a comfortable bath and have a quiet rest.
It was impossible for her to return to the old residence to have dinner because her parents would surely
nag her.

Other people only knew that she was resolute in public. Little did they realize how lazy she was in
private.

Forrest darted an impassive look at her for a while. Then, he turned around and walked into the kitchen
to turn on the stove. He fried an egg and cooked some proper noodles for her.

“Thanks, hubby.”



She hugged Forrest from behind with her after -shower fragrance wafting into his nose, causing him to
tighten the spatula in his hand. “You can return to the Lynch family’s house with me to have meals next
time.”

“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.”

“You wanted to take the chance to bully me when I was drunk anyway,” Jessica said glumly. “After you
had a hearty meal with Ryan the other day, you humiliated me terribly. My legs ached for several days.”

Once she mentioned the matter, Forrest immediately recalled it.

“Some men satisfy themselves by criticizing a woman for misbehaving and seducing them. Forrest, are
you skillful at this?”

“What do you mean?” Forrest’s cold face was filled with bewilderment.

Jessica laughed. “It basically means you’re a scumbag.”

Forrest was speechless.

This issue was too serious. Forrest got a fright and promptly turned back with his dark, handsome face.
“I’m not.”



“Don’t do that again. Otherwise, I’d think that you meant it.” Jessica lifted her head and said seriously
with her eyes fixed on him, “You’re like this every time. Even when I don’t do anything, you’d suddenly
pounce on me, kiss me, and end up laying the blame on me. It’s similar to those evil people who get
arrested by the police. They don’t reflect on their behavior but blame women for exposing their legs
under their skirts instead.”

Her words made Forrest’s ears turn a little hot.

He was cooking just now. The next moment, he started reflecting on himself deeply.

At night, he hugged and kissed her on the bed. After he kissed her for a while, his handsome face
suddenly flushed red. “Jessica, it was my fault back then. I wanted to be with you, yet I refused to admit
that I was attracted to you. That’s why I always shifted the blame to you. I

was wrong.”

“President Lynch, it’s rare that you’re this frank.” Jessica lay on the bed with her hands wrapped around
his neck. She was wearing a sexy sleeping gown with her long, black, and slightly messy hair on the
bed. Her face had turned red from the kiss.

The scene affected Forrest greatly.

Jessica soon noticed it and let out a low laugh. “You want it, huh?”
