Chairman Lennox also gave up.
He thought he was setting a trap for Jessica, but unbeknownst to himself, he
was the one trapped instead.
Before they left, Jessica said, “By the way, I don’t hope for anyone to learn
about our conversation today, otherwise... Chairman Lennox, I’ll decide how
much bonus the Lennox family can get from the company next time.”
Chairman Lennox shuddered, and he grasped her point. Not only did she plant a
spy in his house, but she also had spies in other directors ’ houses. “Jessica, it
looks like your so-called resignation is just a facade.”
“I’ll resign, since my dad wants to go back to his company, I’m willing to play
along.
Having said that, I’ll forever have the final say in Snow Corporation. Do you

“Jessica, you win.” chairman Lennox forced a smile before he left.
Jessica had not only deceived the Snow family but everyone else as well.

At 5:00 p.m., Forrest drove to pick Jessica up.
As it was Jessica’s first time visiting the Lynch family’s villa, she was rather nervous. “Will your parents like me?”
“You’re wonderful.” Forrest held her hand firmly and said self-righteously, “I’m here.”
Even though his words were brief, they boosted Jessica’s confidence.
Forget it. If she had the audacity to force Forrest to marry her, why should she be afraid of meeting his parents?
After arriving at the Lynch family’s villa, Jessica shot a look at the garden. The villa was not as spacious as the Snow
family’s residence, but the plants were all neatly trimmed. There was even a piece of land at the corner of the
garden used for planting vegetables and fruits.
“This will be your home from now on,” Forrest reminded her with a low voice.
Jessica lifted her head and glanced at him in astonishment.
“If you give birth to our child in the future, it’ll be more convenient for you to stay here. That way, our child can be
taken care of.” Forrest secretly thought that Dani would have someone to play with as well.
“You’re really thinking far ahead.” Jessica teased him.
“I’m not young anymore,” Forrest reminded her.
Jessica immediately fell silent, she was quite eager to have a child too.
After marrying Forrest, she had not been using protection. Given that they had been doing it quite often, they
might...
Somehow, she became absent-minded and subconsciously touched her belly.
At that moment, Mrs. Lynch happened to walk out and caught Jessica’s action. She shouted in shock, “Are you
pregnant?”
Jessica was bewildered.
Freya, who deliberately got off from work early today, heard it too. She was
surprised. “ Jessica, are you pregnant? That’s wonderful. I’m going to be an
aunt.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Are you pregnant?” Dazed and puzzled, Forrest looked down. There was a hint
of anticipation in his dark eyes.

Jessica’s mouth twitched, other people may not know if she was pregnant, but
did he have no idea too?
If it were not her first time visiting the Lynch family, she would have glared at
Forrest.
“No. I had an upset stomach just now, so I touched it.” She simply told a lie.
Mrs. Lynch instantly became disappointed. It turned out that she had
misunderstood.
Although she had not completely resigned herself to the fact that Jessica was
her daughter -in-law, she would still be fond of Jessica if the latter had a child.
Ever since Mrs. Lynch moved to Canberra and many of her relatives were not
around, it would be rather quiet without Dani’s company. If not, she would not
have urged her son to get married.
