"Enough, why bring up such pointless matters.
I’ve told you long ago, I can’t work in the sa company with her.
You’re right, I do have a girlfriend now.
But it’s precisely because I have Jane Quinlan that I can’t go back even more.
I have to be responsible for the woman I love now.
I don’t want Jane to know about those trivial things from the past.
So please stop trying to force this issue on ."
Kay Forrest’s tone was sowhat cold.
Grayson Forrest’s brows furrowed heavily.
It seems, this young man truly has deep feelings for the girl Jane.
But he can’t keep rejecting the responsibilities that should be his just because of a woman he doesn’t want to see.
"Think it over carefully.
Your dad hopes you can take all the actual circumstances into consideration.
You’re not young anymore, your mindset should have changed from before.
In this world, there’s no hurdle that can’t be overco.
When it’s ti to let go of sothing, you need to know how to let go.
I hope you, as my son, can understand a bit.
And I hope you can realize that one shouldn’t hold onto past grievances forever."
Kay Forrest stood up and walked towards the kitchen without saying a word.
Grayson Forrest couldn’t help but sigh; this stubborn kid is truly just like him.
When Kay Forrest reached the kitchen door, Jane was bustling about joyfully.
As she stirred the soup in the pot, she humd a tune to herself.
She seed to be really enjoying this comfortable cooking ti.
"How’s it going? Need soone to help you?"
Upon hearing his voice, Jane glanced back at him and waved him off: "Of course not.
Please leave, you’re just in the way here."
Kay Forrest laughed: "You’re kicking out just as I walk in?"
"Because you distract when you’re here."
"I’m hungry, and so are my brothers," he muttered ambiguously in her ear.
"Kay Forrest, you’re so annoying. You’re like the forefather of impropriety," Jane rolled her eyes at him, her face slightly red: "Wait another fifteen minutes."
Jane managed to drive Kay Forrest out.
Twenty minutes later, she finally finished.
Three cold dishes, four hot dishes, all complented by a delicious soup.
Kay Forrest wheeled Grayson Forrest over.
Seeing the dishes on the table, Grayson couldn’t help but praise: "Not bad."
"It’s just simple ho cooking, naturally it can’t compare to the chefs at uncle’s house.
Please don’t be too critical, Uncle."
Kay Forrest swaggered over and sat down beside Jane.
After serving soup for Grayson Forrest and Kay Forrest, Jane sat down: "Uncle, have a taste."
Grayson picked up his chopsticks and took a piece of fish, nodding and smiling: "Hmm, not bad."
Kay Forrest proudly raised his eyebrows: "Told you Jane can cook."
Receiving the complint, Jane smiled shyly and took a sip of her soup.
Kay Forrest ate with relish, having already affird her cooking skills, so Jane wasn’t worried.
But she was indeed curious whether Grayson would take well to the taste.
Kay Forrest ate a bite of the Sautéed Three Fresh Ingredients and smiled contentedly.
"When I was young, my grandmother would often make this dish for .
Jane, you’ve captured the authentic flavor.
It brings back mories of my childhood."
Jane smiled, her lips pursed, and she used her chopsticks to give Kay Forrest a cola chicken wing.
"I haven’t made this for you before; eat more of it."
Grayson paused and looked up at Jane.
Doesn’t this girl know that Kay doesn’t like others using chopsticks to serve him food?
But just when he thought Kay was about to lose his temper, Kay surprisingly went against his father’s expectations and swallowed the chicken wing...
Grayson couldn’t help but reassess Jane a bit.
It seems this young woman does have so ability.
It’s not every woman who can handle a contrarian like Kay Forrest.
She might just be making history.
"Mhm, mhm, mhm, this chicken wing is well made; make it a few more tis."
As Kay Forrest spoke, he said to Grayson: "Next ti let Jane make noodles for you.
Jane is good at making noodles."
Grayson ate at his own pace and turned to Jane: "Is that possible, Jane?"
Jane quickly nodded: "Of course, Uncle. If you like it, I can make it for you tonight."
"You’re coming over again tonight?" Kay was taken aback and looked at her.
Jane confidently ate her rice and looked at him: "Do you think you’re going to leave right after dinner?"
Kay rolled his eyes; this woman, she’s really good at taking the initiative.
In her heart, Jane thought, she didn’t want to go back early at all.
If she gets ho early, he’ll start pestering her again.
Even though they had a blast last night, doing that sort of thing every day can’t be good for the body, right?
It’s better to show restraint.
Since he doesn’t know how to hold back, then she’ll have to take good control of the situation.
Seeing that Kay Forrest didn’t object, Grayson Forrest actually cracked a smile.
This kid Kay was rarely ho for such a long stretch of ti.
Jane Quinlan’s cooking was approved, and the kitchen aunties were also given a day off because of her.
In no ti, the future Young Madam won a lot of praise in the Forrest Family.
After lunch, Kay Forrest escorted Grayson back to his bedroom.
He insists on a two-hour nap every day, co rain or shine.
After coming out of old man Forrest’s room, Kay gestured to Jane Quinlan toward the stairs.
"My bedroom is upstairs. Let’s go up for a mid-day rest."
Jane walked up and took his hand to go upstairs with him.
She thought about getting to know about Kay’s childhood once up there.
But as soon as she entered the room, she realized her mistake.
The stinking man locked the door, drew the curtains, and pounced on her.
Jane did resist at first.
"This is your house. If your dad and the aunties hear us, I’ll be so humiliated."
"Don’t worry, when my dad naps at noon, the aunties have to leave the main hall.
Plus, my dad is downstairs, he can’t hear us, as long as you don’t scream too loud."
Kay Forrest said as he started to nibble on her lips.
"But... no, it’s broad daylight..."
Kay Forrest smirked: "Little Jane, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to.
You refused to go ho at noon because you were afraid I’d co over to sleep with you, right?
Let tell you, your wishful thinking is wrong. I can sleep with you just the sa here.
I don’t care whether it’s noon or night.
Hurry up, spread your legs."
Jane felt truly that for every clever move, there’s a countermove.
In the afternoon, Kay Forrest got a call and had to go out.
He originally wanted to take Jane Quinlan with him.
But old man Forrest said, "You do your thing; let little Jane rest at ho.
She was busy with so many dishes at noon; don’t drag her out."
Since old man Forrest had said so, Jane, who originally wanted to join Kay, felt embarrassed to agree to go with him.
After Kay Forrest left, Jane felt awkward. Not knowing the old man well, she wasn’t sure what to talk about.
The housekeeper brought in so fruits, and Jane carefully peeled an apple for the old man, ticulously cutting it into small pieces and skewering them with a fruit fork before handing it to him.
.
"Having a daughter is great just for this reason; your parents must be especially happy, right?"
Jane scratched her forehead embarrassingly: "Ever since I went to college and left ho, I’ve rarely been by my parents’ side.
They missed out on this simple happiness."
Grayson sighed: "That’s still better than Kay. He doesn’t even think about these things."
Jane suddenly didn’t know what to say.
The two sitting in silence, once it fell quiet, it beca sowhat awkward.
After racking her brains, Jane finally said: "Uncle, are there any photos of Kay’s childhood at ho?"
Old man Forrest beckoned to call a housekeeper, asking soone to bring over two photo albums.
Looking at photo albums wouldn’t be so awkward.
However, Jane was amazed only after opening the album.
Kay was such a chubby kid when he was little.
It was indeed a perspective changer.
"Kay was chubby and cute when he was little."
"He was indeed quite cute as a child.
Unfortunately, I was busy building my career during those years and missed out on a lot of ti to be with him.
As a result, he has a lot of misunderstandings about now."
As Jane listened to Grayson speak, she looked up into his eyes and saw a sense of helplessness.
Jane thought for a mont and said: "Uncle, you don’t need to bla yourself.
Everyone has things they must do in life.
You may have missed Kay’s childhood because of the business.
But you’ve given him an exceptional life.
No father in the world is perfect.
So fathers are with their children every day.
But those children might resent their father’s poverty.
People are never easily satisfied."
Looking at this child consoling him, Grayson suddenly felt that perhaps she could help him.
"Jane, Uncle would like to ask for your help."
Jane closed the album: "Uncle, don’t be polite, give your orders."
"Forrest has always been unwilling to work at my company.
But I’m getting old, and I need his help.
Can you persuade him for ?"
