Chapter 702 I Trust Your Judgment
"What's wrong?" Jenny asked, puzzled.
Graham retracted his gaze and looked at her. "James is a good person, but he is engaged
to Jolene. I don't want you having anything to do with him."
He thought favorably of James, and he still did. But this didn't mean that he could tolerate
him being close to both of his daughters, especially Jenny.
Jenny was stunned. She instantly understood what Graham meant and was speechless.
"You're overthinking things. He's my senior. He's just like family to me. Can't I have a meal
with family?"
"I know you don't mean it that way, Jenny, but does James feel the same way? Can you
guarantee that people will keep their mouths shut?" Graham was grim. He was truly trying

Jenny was exasperated. She looked at her father, saying, "I don't care what people think of
me as long as I have a clear conscience."
Seeing that he was unable to convince Jenny, Graham shook his head." Just don't grow too
close with him. Forget the outsiders. What would Jolene think?’
"Why should I be concerned about what she thinks?" Jenny scoffed. Jolene would come to
bother her regardless and blame every single inconvenience on her. Thus, whether Jenny
had lunch with James wouldn't make a difference.
Graham had no idea how to respond. He was silent for a while before sighing, then saying,
"Forget it. We'll drop it. What did you come here for?"
Normally, Jenny wouldn't come to see him in the company unless she had a reason.
Graham knew this very well.
"I came here to talk about my resignation," Jenny said, not beating around the bush.
Graham wasn't surprised. "That's alright. There's no point in you staying on in the sales
He had assigned her to the sales department in order to train her, but it seemed pointless
now. Jenny was much more capable than he had thought, so the training was unnecessary.
"I will assign you as my assistant so that you will be introduced to the heart of the system.
This way, you'll inherit the company sooner," Graham suggested.
But Jenny frowned, upset. "Didn't we agree on letting trustworthy and capable people take
over the company?"
"That's true, but you cant be completely clueless about how things work.’ Graham was
amused. Jenny didn't seem to want to understand how the company worked at all, but

company would be dependable forever.
What if someone betrayed them? What if Jenny was manipulated without her knowing?
Jenny waved her hand nonchalantly. "I trust your judgment."
Graham was speechless. He didn't trust his judgment, but here Jenny was, saying that she
did. He was at a loss for what to say.
"Well, since you don't want to inherit the company, I won't force you to. However, I hope
you'd find a good husband to whom I can entrust the company." Graham brought up his
request. He thought that this was the best solution. If Jenny could pick a husband from the
pool of suitors he had compiled, everything would be perfect.
He placed the documents of the eligible bachelors on the table. "These are all young and
talented men. Their fathers are all loyal employees of Walter Inc. I trust them all very
much, which is why I'd like to nurture them."
