Chapter 595: Chapter 301: As Long as She’s Happy by My Side (1 Update)
Kay Forrest laughed when Grayson Forrest said that: "Alright, Dad, stop scaring people here.
What rules to learn? I’m not marrying her to bring glory to our family’s name.
It’s enough for her to be happy by my side.
I don’t care how she presents herself in public.
Moreover, one’s reputation is supported by oneself, not by their women."
"I’m saying this for both of your sakes.
You two are doing as you please for now, but as time goes by, in these circles, you will become the laughing stock of others."
"Then I won’t do anything in front of Jane that she dislikes.
Okay, Dad, please let this go, alright?"
Jane Quinlan held Kay Forrest’s hand and turned to Grayson Forrest with a smile: "Alright, Uncle, after the New Year I will start learning."
Kay Forrest was taken aback and looked at Jane Quinlan: "Are you sick or something?"
Jane Quinlan looked at him and smiled, remembering what Benjamin Quinlan had told her.
She didn’t mind, but she didn’t want Kay Forrest to be mocked because of her lack of manners.
"No, I think it’s not a bad thing to learn these things.
Plus, Uncle is right, as long as I don’t embarrass you in public, they won’t have anything to gossip about.
I don’t want others to say that the daughter of a poor family is ignorant.
I won’t embarrass you, nor will I embarrass my parents."
Grayson Forrest laughed heartily: "Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s eat first."
Kay Forrest raised his hand and ruffled her hair.
Being with him, she has to endure more things than other women.
He knows her nature is to be free and unrestrained, and she definitely wouldn’t like being restricted by others.
Yet for his sake, she is willing to make many changes.
For him, this woman is truly precious.
After dinner, Jane Quinlan said: "Forrest, go take a photo with Uncle."
"What photo? That’s so cheesy."
"Oh come on, just do it for me," Jane Quinlan forcibly pushed Kay Forrest next to Grayson Forrest and took a picture of them.
They stayed in the Forrest family’s old house until after three in the afternoon before they left.
Jane Quinlan didn’t rush home, but went to a photo studio by the roadside and had two large photos developed and framed.
After leaving the studio, Jane Quinlan, arm in arm with Kay Forrest, said: "This is the real gift I’ve prepared for Uncle.
When the photos are delivered to your house in a few days, do you think Uncle will be happy?"
Kay Forrest looked at her with an adoring smile: "He will be, my dad and I haven’t taken a photo together for at least ten years."
Actually, not only Grayson Forrest, but Kay Forrest himself is very happy inside.
She has this kind of thoughtfulness; he is really pleased.
The next day, before they set off, Jane Quinlan called Benjamin Quinlan, asking if he wanted to come along.
Benjamin Quinlan hasn’t had enough time with Adriana Golden, so he didn’t join them to be a third wheel.
On the way home, Kay Forrest and Jane Quinlan took turns driving.
Riding home in her boyfriend’s car for the first time, Jane Quinlan really felt a special kind of emotion.
Since they were driving themselves, they had plenty of time to rest on the road.
They started at ten in the morning and arrived home after four in the afternoon.
As the car stopped at the gate of the Quinlan’s house, Mr. and Mrs. Quinlan came to the door to greet them both.
When they got out of the car, neighbors immediately gathered around to see Jane Quinlan’s boyfriend.
Someone recognized that the car Kay Forrest was driving was a Maserati and murmurs started among the crowd.
"Jane’s boyfriend sure is rich."
"Indeed, look at the car he drives, it looks so upscale."
"Upscale? This isn’t just any upscale; it’s a Maserati, my goodness, the Quinlan’s family has truly struck it lucky."
Mrs. Quinlan, hearing the crowd’s chatter, couldn’t be prouder.
Kay Forrest opened the car trunk and kept hauling things out, filling the trunk with big and small packages.
Jane’s uncles and aunts, hearing the news, came over, and unlike last time, they were very polite as well.
"Jane and Forrest are back."
Jane Quinlan cheerfully said to her aunt: "Auntie, we were thinking of bringing my brother along, but he had some things to deal with and might be back in a couple of days."
"Oh, never mind him, it’s great that you two are back."
Mr. Quinlan said joyfully: "Enough standing at the door, let’s all head home and talk inside."
The whole family went back inside and that was as far as the neighbors went.
Inside the house, Mrs. Quinlan went around serving water to everyone, Kay Forrest greeted his grandparents, and the whole family was content and joyful.
After Kay Forrest returned to Jane Quinlan’s side and sat down, he said with a smile, "Feels more comfortable than the last time I came here."
Jane Quinlan whispered in his ear: "That’s because last time was fake, and this time it’s for real."
After chatting for a while, mom and aunt went off to prepare the meal.
Jane Quinlan took Kay Forrest back to the room to tidy things up.
As soon as the two entered the room and Kay Forrest closed the door, he immediately embraced Jane Quinlan and started to be affectionate.
Although there were people in the living room, their affection was brief but intense today.
After a moment, they let go of each other, and Kay Forrest sat down on the bed and laughed: "Who would have thought that I, Kay Forrest, would come back here again.
The first time I came, I told Faye Townsend that this was the countryside and swore I would never come back.
Against all odds, it’s only been a few months, and here I am again. Moreover, coming here this time doesn’t feel too bad at all."
Jane Quinlan chuckled, sat next to him, and leaned her head on his shoulder.
"I also didn’t expect you would come back here.
The wonder of fate is so unpredictable; who would have thought that the man I casually pulled in would turn out to be my destined other half."
"You think you’re the only one who didn’t see it coming?
I finally came back to settle down in the country and was planning to travel around.
But what happened? I was confusedly pulled into your car.
I could have refused you at that time.
What spell was I under that I just agreed to your request to play along with your act?"
Jane Quinlan giggled: "The charm of mine is just too strong."
"Let’s talk about keen eyesight - out of so many people at the station, you didn’t approach anyone else but landed on me.
This is actually the mystery of fate, indescribable."
Jane Quinlan laughed: "Guess what I’m thinking. I feel it’s because the gap between the two of us is so big.
Elder Moon must have thought he could not match us in a normal way, so he gave us a huge mix-up to let us meet each other.
Otherwise, how do you explain that I would be fooled, and that you, a young master with a car, instead insisted on taking a bus to travel?"
Kay Forrest massaged her head: "Hmm, that’s a good theory.
Being bored at home, let’s go out and take a walk together."
"Sure," Jane Quinlan pulled him out of the door, greeted her family, and then took him out for a walk.
Rongford is not as fast-paced as Anchester, and people here live quite leisurely.
Work and life are not so pressured.
As the two walked along, Jane Quinlan leaned on his arm, walked by the riverbank for a while, then took out her phone and snapped a photo to post on her moments.
’Walking with my beloved man through the sceneries once traversed gives a completely different taste.’
Kay Forrest, seeing her post in moments, asked: "There’s a roasted sweet potato seller up ahead. Want some?"
"No, we’re going to have dinner at home later. I need to save room to eat more there."
Kay Forrest rubbed her head, and the two walked a long distance, Then Jane Quinlan’s phone rang.
She took out her phone and with a bit of surprise said to Kay Forrest: "It’s Adriana Golden calling. Do you remember her? She was the one who organized the classmates’ get-together when you first came here."
"Her? I have an impression, quite a straightforward and talkative girl. Answer it."
Jane Quinlan answered: "Hello, Adriana."
"Jane, how come you’ve come back today?"
Jane Quinlan was surprised for a moment: "How did you know I was back?"
"Didn’t you just post in moments? I’m so bored at work every day that all I do is scroll through moments."
Jane Quinlan laughed: "Are you showing off?"
"What’s there to show off about? Such a job is really annoying, okay.
By the way, you brought your handsome boyfriend back with you.
We haven’t seen each other for a long time, let’s get together for a meal."
"Another get-together?"
"Yes, we haven’t gathered for a long time. Since you’re back, let’s have one.
I’ll call our classmates - let’s all get together and have a lively time.
After the last time, quite a few people have been hoping to get together for a meal again.
For us locals to have your boyfriend treat us to dinner would be too rude."
"It’s not a problem, my boyfriend won’t mind."
"We must repay the favor; it’s settled then.
Tomorrow night, I’ll give you the details."
Jane Quinlan looked at Kay Forrest: "Go to my class reunion tomorrow night?"
Kay Forrest smiled: "Sure."
