“Forrest, I used to think that after we got married, we’d be able to spend every day together and give birth to a child in the future, allowing our relationship to return to how it was back then. However, I’ve overlooked the fact that there’s no trust in our relationship anymore. You don’t trust me at all. You even perceive measa flirt ever since we broke up.”
A touch of sadness appeared in Jessica’s eyes. ” Are you going to treat me the same as you did the other day whenever you don’t trust me? Honestly, I’m afraid of pain. But despite that fear, ] had to endure it and drive myself there to have my wound stitched. I was afraid of having other people ask me to call the police when I reached the hospital.”
Forrest was so embarrassed. “I’m sorry.”
If this were in the past, he might not have believed what she said.
However, after having a talk with Christian and Ryan, he understood that he should not blame her. Jessica looked at him in surprise, probably because she did not expect him to apologize of his own accord.
“I promise you that this will never happen again.” Forrest deeply reflected on himself. Regardless of whether Jessica had betrayed him, he should not have done those kinds of things.
It could probably be because he easily lost his composure every time he was with Jessica.
Even he hated himself for it.
A look of surprise washed over Jessica’s face again. At that moment, she had no idea what to say.
Nevertheless, Forrest had already thought about it. “It’s true. Our relationship lacks trust, but think about how many years we’ve been apart. We’ve changed in many ways. In fact, I don’t quite understand you now, and neither do you understand me. It’s inevitable for us to quarrel. But I promise you that if we argue the next time, I definitely won’t hurt you. Of course, if you betray me again, I won’t be mad at you or hate you because there’s no need for that. We’ll get a divorce and live our separate lives.”
He had spent the whole of last night thinking about it.
He had really gotten over some stuff.
He knew that he had not stopped loving Jessica. He might be able to fool others about his feelings, but he could not himself.
Just like the night before, when Jessica wanted to leave with her bags, he lost control because he knew full well that he could not bear to part with her.
Christian’s words had woke him up. If Jessica had not broken up with him back then, would their relationship have borne fruit?
Obviously, it was impossible.
At that time, their identities were worlds apart. Given that he was too young and arrogant back then, he might not have been able to continue his relationship with her too.
Ryan’s words had also made Forrest understand that Jessica had been trying to get together with him. Regardless of whether she loved him or simply missed her first love, now that both of them were married, it showed that they were fated to be together.
What was more, the two of them were not young anymore, so they should give it a try.
Jessica fel] silent.
That was the first time Jessica and Forrest hada peaceful talk since they reunited.
It made her wonder if Forrest was possessed. “Tlied to you… that day. I said I wanted to go back to my place not because of Harold.”
After some time, Jessica continued, “I only wanted to take a break that day… I didn’t want to do it with you. I was exhausted and couldn’t handle it anymore. Plus, you always say nasty things in bed.”
After that, she turned her face to the window awkwardly. No matter how tough of a woman she was, she was embarrassed when it came to that matter. Otherwise, she would not have kept it to herself the entire time.
Forrest was stunned.
After Jessica’s words flashed across his mind, his ears turned red in embarrassment.
Now that he thought about it, he found himself quite shameless.
Although he claimed that he was not interested in her looks, his body said it all. However, he cared about his dignity. How could he say that he was attracted to her body? As such, he had no choice but to shift the blame to her.
“Well… Pll be careful next time.”
After a long time, he said in embarrassment.
All of a sudden, his attitude had improved, and Jessica could not get used to it. She felt that something about him was off.
What Does A Healthy, Sexual Relationship Look Like?
She rose to her feet. “I-I’m going to work now.” Forrest instinctively clutched her wrist. “With your condition, why can’t you just rest at home?” “No. I need to decide on a project in the meeting today,” Jessica said earnestly. “Snow Corporation has too many subsidiaries and branches. There are too many things I need to deal with.Everyone’s waiting for me.”
“But your health-“
“Since I’m leading the company, I need to bear the responsibility.” A stubborn look washed over Jessica’s pretty face.
Forrest pursed his thin lips. “Let me send you there.”
Jessica darted a complicated glance at him. Her pink lips moved a little, but she did not say anything in the end.
When Jessica went to the door to change her shoes, Forrest opened the shoe rack, took out a pair of sports shoes, and placed them in front of her. “Wear this today.”
Jessica’s pretty face twisted for a moment. “Does this pair match my outfit today?”
As Forrest’s eyes lingered on her skirt, he asked very straightforwardly, “Why wouldn’t it match your outfit?”
With that, he bent over and stuffed her feet into the white sports shoes before she could answer. Looking at his bent back, Jessica blanked out for a few seconds.
She recalled how painful it was when they did it the first time, and the next day, he personally put on her shoes for her as well.
Just like that, the incident had taken place so long ago. She never thought she would come to see this day again.
Anyway, was she too soft-hearted?
Amid her thoughts, Jessica furrowed her brows. When Forrest stood up, he saw her expression and thought she was dissatisfied. Hence, he said, ” You said you’re in pain. You women just care about your appearances, huh? What’s wrong with wearing a pair of sports shoes to work? They’re nice and comfortable. I noticed there are very few pairs of flats on your shoe rack. Why don’t we go shop for a few pairs of canvas shoes for you?”
“No need. I’ll be fine after a few days.” Jessica rejected his offer. Wearing high heels made one look more elegant, especially for working women. Forrest asked, “Who knows if you’ll be aching the next day?”
“….”
He suddenly hinted at her.
A pink blush suddenly crept up Jessica’s pretty face.
Forrest lowered his head and stole a look at Jessica. After he noticed the pink blush on her face, an improper thought crossed his mind.
He secretly tightened his fists.
“Shut up.” Jessica threw a threatening look at him.
Anyone in the company would be frightened by her gaze, yet Forrest raised his brows in response to that.
After getting in the car, Jessica fastened her seat belt.
A shadow cast over her. Before she could say anything, Forrest locked lips with her.
She widened her eyes in shock.
That was not the first time both of them kissed after getting married. However, it usually happened in bed when she was disorientated, unlike now… His passionate kiss left her breathless.
It was as though they were in the first flush of love.
“Forrest…”
She pushed his chest away.
Instead of getting pushed away, Forrest kissed Jessica more firmly until her phone rang. She tapped the answer button ina panic, and her secretary’s voice sounded. “President Snow, are you feeling better today? Can you come to the office?”
“I’m on my way,” Jessica said as her gaze settled on Forrest’s face.
The lights in the car were not switched on, and the light from the parking lot outside shone into the car. The man’s prominent features were unclear, but she could see his starry eyes.
“Okay. However, you sound weird, President Snow. Does your throat feel okay?” Her secretary’s concerned voice echoed in the car. “.Yeah. I’m coming.”
Jessica promptly hung up the call, her cheeks burning.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with her throat. Her voice was a little hoarse only because she had been kissed for a long time just now.
With the awkward atmosphere in the car, she glared at Forrest in embarrassment. “Start driving.”
