Jessica''s long eyshes quivered.


    When her eyes glistened with tears, she hurriedly lowered her head. Her tone was a s calm as ever when she spoke again," Really? You can think whatever you want, but think about Lynch Corporation. You cane to look for me anytime after you figure it out, but you''d better not be toote. Or even I won''t be able to help you."


    Then, she swatted away his arm and walked straight toward the door.


    "Jessica Snow..."


    Forrest was furious and grabbed her shoulder again from behind.


    When he grabbed her, he realized how thin and soft her elbow was.


    "Let me remind you." Jessica turned around. "If Lynch Corporation falls, do you think the Childs family will still agree to let their daughter marry you? Also, it''s useless even if you get Ryan and the executive council to help. My word is final in the business world. In addition, your sister has just started dating Ryan, so you''ll probably be too embarrassed to keep asking Ryan for help, right?"


    Then, she left.


    The room was enveloped in coldness again.


    Forrest, who was aggressive just a moment ago, felt a deep sense of powerlessness at this moment.


    The words that Jessica said when she left struck a nerve.


    After all, they had dated before. She was too smart and knew him too well.


    It was impossible for him to beg Ryan.


    It was like how he had repeatedly refused the help of Jason and his wife when Freya married Rodney.


    He did not want his sister to be unable to lift her head in the Snow family.


    Therefore, he had always relied on himself.


    The reason why he epted Ryan''s help for thend in Canberra was that he wanted to let Lynch Corporation rise as soon as possible. In the end, it was to strengthen the Lynch family so that Freya had apetent backer.


    Ryan had helped enough. How could Forrest still go begging for more?


    He hated Jessica Snow.


    She knew him so well, yet she wanted to break his pride.


    Despite having already established a firm foothold in the capital, the gap between


    Lynch Corporation and Snow Corporation was still too great.


    At that moment, Forrest had a deep sense of powerlessness.


    He took another flight to the States overnight.


    However, President Smith of Sharon Company refused to meet him and even avoided him.


    Jerry''s urgent call came again. "Forrest, how did the talks go? Is there still room for reconciliation between Sharon Company and Inez Corporation?"


    "I haven''t met Smith yet." Forrest stood on an unfamiliar road abroad and pinched his brows tiredly.


    Jerry sighed softly. "There''s definitely someone targeting our family. I just don''t know who we''ve offended. The opponent is too scheming. Why don''t I just humble myself and personally go beg President Chaplin from Inez Corporation...?"


    "It''ll still be useless."


    Forrest spoke in a low voice, his heart filled with bitterness.


    How was he supposed to exin that Jessica was forcing him to marry her? How could he exin that he had dated Jessica in the past?


    How could he say that the Lynch family had fallen to this state because of him? He did not have the dignity to do so.
