Seeing Kay Forrest looking rather upset, Jane Quinlan pursed her lips: "Can’t ask, huh."
Kay Forrest smiled: "I’ll tell you later."
Jane Quinlan knew that every family had their own secrets.
Maybe her uncle’s leg was a secret of the Forrest Family.
She wasn’t the kind to overly dramatize; just because Kay didn’t talk about it, she wouldn’t think Kay didn’t love her.
Since he wasn’t saying anything, she wouldn’t ask.
Because Lily Snow went back, Jane Quinlan could also go back to report to the office and work normally the next day.
After entering the office, she always felt that something was off about the office.
It was only after sitting down that she realized, the desk that she could see when she looked up was gone.
That was Xavier’s seat.
She stared at that spot for quite a while, silently. Just one day away from the company, and he left?
A colleague frowned and pursed her lips at her side: "What are you looking at?"
Jane Quinlan raised an eyebrow: "Did Xavier resign?"
"Yesterday at noon he went to Director Forrest’s office, came out without saying anything, and then packed up and left.
Since he didn’t tell us, we also don’t know if he resigned.
But it wasn’t long before Director Forrest came out and had someone take away that desk and Eden Howard’s desk too."
The colleague smirked: "What’s with that look? Why, gonna miss him?"
Jane Quinlan rolled her eyes: "Not at all, just felt like something changed in the office, didn’t notice what it was until I sat down."
"Honestly, even if Xavier didn’t resign, it would’ve been hard for him to continue working in the office, don’t you think?
Look at how arrogantly he and Eden Howard used to bully you.
Now your boyfriend has become his immediate boss.
There’s no way he’d dare to keep going on here.
His leaving is also good for you, right? It’ll save you the trouble."
Jane Quinlan nodded, indeed, she actually felt it would be awkward for the two to keep working at the same company.
One of them had to leave, if not him, then her.
This way, at least she can work here with ease.
Jane Quinlan shook her head, deciding not to think about these things anymore, and began to work.
In the morning, Kay Forrest went to Skyward Group for some business.
Benjamin Quinlan just returned to the company from errands and saw him getting out of the car.
Benjamin Quinlan stuffed documents into his bag and started to jog forward, intending to greet him.
But his pace was swift, already stepping into the group’s building before anyone else.
When Benjamin Quinlan reached the company’s entrance, he had already walked past the day before’s path.
The receptionist greeted him respectfully as they saw him, "Good day, Young Master."
Kay Forrest waved his hand and raised his eyebrows with a smile at the ladies.
Not to flirt, but it was his way of greeting.
Benjamin Quinlan was puzzled, Young Master?
This address shouldn’t be thrown around lightly.
His steps hesitated, and he didn’t continue to follow Kay, instead, he went to the reception.
"Ladies, who was the guy that just went in?"
Seeing the work badge on his chest, one of the receptionists said: "You must be new here, he is the president’s only son."
The president’s only son?
Benjamin Quinlan was dumbfounded for a moment, no wonder he could be casually placed in the company to work, so this future brother-in-law had such a big background?
He swallowed, thinking, how on earth did little Jane dig up such a treasure?
The future daughter-in-law of Skyward Group, this was quite a leap to the sky.
At noon, Kay Forrest did not return to the company, and Jane Quinlan went to have lunch with her colleague.
Halfway through the meal, Benjamin Quinlan called.
Jane Quinlan took the call from the side: "Brother."
"Jane, where are you?"
"Eating downstairs at the company."
"I want to ask you something, do you know about your future brother-in-law’s family situation?"
Jane Quinlan took a bite of a bun: "I just visited his house yesterday, what’s the matter?"
"Good grief, you met the parents already?"
Jane Quinlan pursed her lips: "Mhm."
"Jane, you’re really shooting up to the heavens now."
"What are you babbling about?"
"Becoming the daughter-in-law of Skyward Group, isn’t that shooting up to the heavens?
First things first, what do they think of you over there?
If it’s looking good, you should hurry up and get married."
"Hold on, what nonsense are you spouting, what daughter-in-law of Skyward Group?"
Jane Quinlan puzzlingly stood up and walked towards the entrance of the restaurant.
Benjamin Quinlan said: "What do you mean, you don’t know your boyfriend is the big young master of Skyward Group?"
Jane Quinlan frowned: "Are you kidding me?"
"Why would I be kidding you, you really had no idea?
I only found out this morning myself; I saw someone call your boyfriend ’Young Master’ and then I inquired to find out, he is the president’s only son."
