Chapter 67 Having Lunch Together

After he came back to the bedroom, Jackson lied on the bed again, and tightly held Cherry in his arms.

Cherry was almost fully awake, and after she saw Jackson's blurry face, Cherry asked, "With whom did you speak for so long?"

Jackson immediately replied and felt better. He couldn't be more happy when he saw that Cherry was willing to talk with him, and said, "Our grandpa called me immediately after I rang Derek back."

When she heard Jackson talk about Grandpa Andrew, Cherry opened her eyes wide, and asked, "Why did grandpa call?"

There was no doubt that both of them had attached great importance and respect to Grandpa Andrew. His appearance, his walk, and even the mention of his name, represented a kind of distinct cachet.

Jackson asked for Cherry's opinion and looked in her eyes. "Grandpa wants us to go to his military compound and have lunch together with him. Would you like to go?"

Cherry didn't avoid Jackson's gaze, and instead looked back at him, and asked, "Haven't you agreed already?"

When he saw Cherry's face, Jackson nodded, and showed her that she was indeed right.

Cherry then didn't say anything more; she knew that she couldn't ever refuse Grandpa Andrew.

After a while, Cherry said, "Well, let's get up, dress, and wash, then we'll buy a present for grandpa before we go there."

When he heard that Cherry agreed to go, Jackson happily said, "Okay."

In the evening, Jackson drove with Cherry to the family residence, and when they arrived, they walked hand in hand into the living room of the Chu family.

When the butler saw that Jackson and Cherry had arrived, he cheerfully said to Andrew, "Master, Jackson and Cherry have arrived."

Andrew immediately turned around from the window and looked at Jackson and Cherry, but when he looked more closely at her, his heart ached when he saw her emaciated face. How could his granddaughter-in-law ever get to suffer so much?

"Grandpa, we're here, " said Jackson as he walked up to Andrew with Cherry.

Cherry politely looked at Andrew, and also greeted him, "Grandpa."

Andrew laid his eyes on her, and said, "Cherry, why have you become so thin nowadays?"

After Andrew finished his words, Jackson hastily looked at Cherry. The woman had really become emaciated, and had indeed lost a lot of weight.

Cherry lowered her head, and didn't know how to answer him. She had been grieving, but did she really have to mention it again?

As he looked at Cherry's embarrassed expression, Jackson quickly

"You're my wife in name only, on paper only. My heart and love will never be yours."

Edward made it clear to Daisy that she was nothing to him. They were both victims of family greed -- the marriage was arranged for them.

Six years passed. She remained quiet, gaining a reputation in the army as a tough-as-nails colonel. When she walked into his life again, Edward fell in love with this woman...

, and damage his future. I wanted to talk to you and ask for your opinion about all of it."

Cherry didn't blame Andrew at all, and peacefully spoke, "Grandpa, I have no opinion about it, and to be honest, the Shen family means nothing to me now. You must have surely heard about Emily's accident, and that it's connected to Jean."

Cherry then finally uncovered the painful scar that she was carrying. She knew that her grandpa Andrew was clear in his mind, and said, "I hate Jean, and although I won't do anything bad to her, her affairs, along with those of the Shen family, have nothing to do with me."

Andrew listened to Cherry's words, and nodded to her without saying a word, keeping his silence instead.

On the other hand, Jackson's eyes were filled with hatred. He had sworn to himself that the evil woman would pay the price for her mischievous deeds.

As he caught sight of the hatred that burned in Jackson's eyes, Andrew felt that the atmosphere in the room had stiffened, and he immediately changed the topic. He said, "By the way, Jackson, I also let our butler call Derek, and he will come here to eat with us soon. Cherry and you don't mind him, do you?"

Jackson turned his eyes to Cherry, asked, "Baby, are you okay with him?"

Cherry smiled slightly, and replied, "Of?course not, the more the merrier! Derek is not a stranger, and the two of you have also grown up together in the family residence, so maybe you have already gotten used to eating your meals together."

As he listened to what Cherry said, Jackson felt his heart fill with happiness. The lovely woman in front of him could still seize his heart and understand his thoughts.
