“Mom, you really know nothing.” Lydia rolled her eyes at her mother. “Dad has been trying to matchmake Harold and Jessica. He’s purely interested in her power and wealth. Snow Corporation can never belong to our family if we rely solely on ourselves. Look how well Snow Corporation is doing. If Harold marries Jessica and gets her pregnant, he’ll be able to jump at the chance to take control of Snow Corporation.”Mrs. Lennox then said, “But she’s now married.”“We have to make her get a divorce then.”Mr. Lennox said firmly, “With Forrest’s identity, the Snow family will never accept him. I’m going to look for Jason.”“You want my son to marry a woman who has been married twice?” Mrs. Lennox was mad.“A woman like you knows nothing. By the time Snow Corporation is ours, we can get Harold to divorce her.” Mr. Lennox rolled his eyes at his wife. “Men who want to achieve great things shouldn’t be bothered about such trivial matters.”Mrs. Lennox fell quiet.Harold said, “Dad, I’ll li
“Jason, are you guys really unaware of this?” Mr. Lennox asked.Jason’s face contorted in anger. He had no idea whether to be shocked or furious.It was his son who worried him earlier, and now, it was his daughter.What was more… it had to do with the Lynch family again.Jason’s head hurt at the mention of ‘the Lynch family’.“Jason, I don’t know whether it is my place to say this, but I should remind you of this,” Mr. Lennox said profoundly. “Don’t you think the Lynch family is a little too ambitious? Not only has their daughter played up to the executive council, but Lynch Corporation has also moved over to Canberra. Now, his son has struck up a relationship with your daughter… Are the Lynch family’s children so brilliant?”Upon hearing that, Jason and Wendy frowned.“Mr. Lennox, thank you for letting me know. I’ll take a raincheck on this game today to look for Jessica. By the way, please don’t spread the news to the public.”Not wanting to linger around any longer, Jason q
“Dad, I was the one who forced Forrest into the marriage,” Jessica suddenly said. “He didn’t bewitch me.”Jason laughed in exasperation. “You’re even defending him now. So he didn’t bewitch you, huh? Jessica, I thought you were the most level-headed person in the Snow family. I didn’t think you would handle things emotionally too. Look at you. What potion did he feed you? To be honest, I wasn’t supportive of Freya and Ryan dating. However, Ryan isn’t my son. Everyone thinks that they are truly in love, but now that Forrest has struck up a relationship with you, I’m starting to think that the Lynch family’s goal isn’t that simple.”Jessica’s brows knitted into a tight frown. “Dad, you’ve really misunderstood. In fact, Forrest and I had known each other since I studied abroad. He was my first love.”Jason was astonished. However, his expression then grew darker. “Didn’t you say you didn’t date when you were overseas?”“All of you wanted me to marry Jordan, so why should I tell you th
Jason was stunned. He was hesitating as well. After all, he was still young, and he was also unsatisfied when he was made a figurehead.However, did it matter if he could work until he was 70? Rodney had become a fool, and he knew Carson’s personality very well. Not only was Carson’s mind on dating, but even if Jason forced him to inherit Snow Corporation, he might not be able to convince the directors of Snow Corporation.Wendy looked at her daughter with mixed feelings, only to realize that she might never have truly understood her. “Jessica, is it worth giving up Snow Corporation for a man? Even if Forrest was your first love, it happened long ago. Don’t do something you’ll regret. You’re smart, but you’re still too innocent in relationships. No matter when, only a career won't betray a woman.”“Mom, I’m letting go not because I don’t want this career. I just don’t want to be bounded by Snow Corporation to do what I want to do.”Jessica laughed self-deprecatingly. “Dad, Mom,
“Tough?” Jason said unhappily, “The huge Snow Corporation belongs to her. She’s 50th in the global billionaire rankings. If it weren’t for the Snow family, would she have been able to be this wealthy at her young age?”“Actually, we’re not born with money, and we won’t be able to take it with us when we die either. Jessica has never been a person who pursued extravagance. Look at her monthly expenses. It’s much less than mine.”Wendy said, “Back then, I was uncomfortable about letting her get married to Jordan. However, you and Old Master Snow made her do so. I had no choice… Now that she has finally found a person she likes…”“But that person is Forrest,” Jason reminded. “Don’t forget that Dani has Snow Corporation’s shares. The Lynch family is taking care of Dani now. She’s closer to them. We’re not even sure that she’ll acknowledge us as her grandparents in the future. With Jessica's shares, trouble will befall Snow Corporation if Forrest has different thoughts.”Wendy went sile
“I think it’s Carson. Director Snow will be back too.”“No way. I don’t want President Snow to leave. After she assumed the position, all of our salaries increased.”“...”Even Wendy and Jason, who were upstairs, heard the rumor. It was evident that Jessica was not joking.Half an hour later, Wendy entered with a bottle of medicine in her hand. “Jessica, does your face still hurt? Let me apply some medicine for you.”Jessica, who was in the middle of handing over her work, glanced at her mother with complicated feelings. “Mom, you don’t have to be worried that Snow Corporation will be taken away by the Lynch family. I’m already about to submit my resignation letter.”“Jessica, let’s be considerate of each other, okay?” Wendy sat opposite Jessica. “Back then, it’s true that your dad and I made you go through a lot. Your dad was rash just now, but he has his worries. After all, Snow Corporation is a business inherited from the Snow family’s ancestors. If it weren’t for the Lynch fa
“We went golfing with Director Lennox and met him and his son. You know that Harold has always liked you.”Jessica gave a noncommittal response.She knew better than anyone else whether Harold liked her or her identity.“Mom, don’t spread any news about my marriage for now,” Jessica reminded calmly. An hour later, Carson heard the news and rushed back. When he saw Jessica, his expression crumpled up. “Sis, why did I hear that you’re resigning? Oh my gosh, this can’t be possible.”“It’s true. Come to my office in the next few days. I’ll hand over my work to you,” Jessica said indifferently. “You should familiarize yourself with the people in the office as soon as possible, but don’t be too panicked. Dad will come back too. You and Dad will be managing Snow Corporation together.”Carson widened his eyes in disbelief. “Stop joking around. You’ve only just obtained Snow Corporation after putting in so much effort back then. Are you letting go so easily? Sis, what happened to you? Di
“We are, but I’ve always had my guard up against their plans.”Ryan smiled. It could be said that he was the closest to Jessica out of all the relatives of the Snow family. Talking to smart people was easy like that. In some sense, he and Jessica had always been the people at the top of the food chain. Harold and the others were below them, but they were unaware of that. They thought they could hide their little schemes well. However, it was simply because they were not choosing to expose those schemes and were using each other for benefits. Some people were just not clear about that.“Jessica, you’re so talented. Why would Uncle and the rest be worried about you getting deceived by men? Ha, I think they should be worried about themselves so they won’t get tricked by others,” Ryan joked. “Forget it. To the elders, we’re never as cautious and mature as they are. There’s no need to fight with them over it.”“You’re right.”…Lynch Corporation. Forrest did not pay much attent
