Jane Quinlan’s heart pounded chaotically.
Suddenly, she remembered that indeed there was a time when he seemed to be joking, telling her he was the young master of the Skyward Group.
At that time, she really thought he was joking.
"Jane Quinlan, why aren’t you speaking?
Didn’t you meet his parents yesterday? How could you still not know his identity?
What are his family’s intentions? Do they agree to you marrying him?"
Jane Quinlan reached up to touch her forehead, her mind a complete mess.
When she met Kay Forrest’s father yesterday, she knew the gap between them was more than substantial.
Benjamin Quinlan’s call today was like a bucket of cold water poured over her head.
Kay Forrest is the heir of the Skyward Group, what a joke.
She wasn’t a fool; naturally, she knew someone like her couldn’t be the Young Madam of a wealthy family.
For no reason at all, she just felt an inexplicable sadness.
She never felt good enough for Kay Forrest, and now she felt even more... more inferior.
"Hello, Jane, Jane? Why aren’t you talking?"
"Brother, I’m fine, I’m eating right now, I’ll hang up first."
After hanging up the phone, she leaned against the restaurant’s wall, her complexion not good.
Seeing that she hadn’t come back for a long time, Xiao Hua came out to look for her.
Seeing her stunned at the entrance, Xiao Hua asked in confusion, "What’s wrong?"
"Xiao Hua, have you ever longed for marrying into a wealthy family?"
"Of course, what woman doesn’t? Haven’t you?"
Xiao Hua’s answer was spirited and seen as a matter of course.
Jane Quinlan nodded, I too have longed for it, always dreaming about it, especially when watching idol dramas, that feeling would intensify.
But if one day, your boyfriend also turns out to be from a wealthy family, what would you do?
"I’d be over the moon.
You have no idea how envious I am of you right now.
Alas, people have different fates; envy won’t change yours."
Jane Quinlan was quite depressed; it’s one thing to say such things, but it’s a different story when it becomes reality.
"How long do you think a relationship can last between two people with completely different backgrounds?"
"Hmm... Are you worried about your situation with Director Forrest?"
Jane Quinlan nodded: "Actually, I’ve always felt that Kay Forrest and I are from different worlds.
Sometimes, I really feel sorry for him, after all... there’s nothing I can help him with in his work or life.
He likes me now, but what if one day he suddenly realizes we’re not suitable for each other..."
Xiao Hua stood next to her, "Jane Quinlan, to be honest, I’m quite worried for you too.
Dating someone like Director Forrest is one thing, but if it’s about marrying him... the differences between you two are indeed quite significant.
You have to change yourself to fit into his world.
Or else, he has to adapt to you.
But I think it’s easier to adapt from frugality to luxury than from luxury to frugality.
So, the one to change can only be you."
She turned to Xiao Hua: "What I fear the most is that we will have no future.
You might not know how much I like him."
"Then use your love to keep him with you.
Don’t put too much pressure on yourself. I can understand your difficulties right now.
But think about it, you can change yourself in the future.
Aren’t we all supposed to progress with the times?"
Jane Quinlan nodded, yet still felt a headache, thinking about the Skyward Group.
One of the top three corporations in Anchester.
It felt like a dream.
Kay Forrest only returned to the office after 2 PM.
When he entered the office, he glanced at Jane Quinlan.
Jane Quinlan was in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
He walked over and rubbed her head, and in the admiring gazes of everyone around, he said to her, "Come to my office for a moment."
Jane Quinlan regained her composure, looked up at him, pursed her lips, stood up, and followed him into the office.
As soon as they entered, Kay Forrest immediately turned around and hugged her waist.
Jane Quinlan looked up at him; he leaned down and forcefully captured her lips with a kiss.
She turned her head to dodge it, but Kay Forrest’s hand gently caressed her head: "What’s wrong?"
Jane Quinlan bit her lip and looked at him: "Kay Forrest, tell me the truth, is that thing you said before, about you being the heir of the Skyward Group, is that true?"
Kay Forrest raised an eyebrow, she knows about it?
He didn’t lie to her, nodding his head: "It’s true. Why did you suddenly ask this?
Didn’t you not believe me when I told you before?"
"Today at the company, my brother saw someone calling you ’young master’," Jane Quinlan said with a sour face.
Kay Forrest laughed: "Are you unhappy because of my identity?"
