Chapter 75 I Want To Leave Him

Cherry pushed Jackson away impatiently, and said, "Jackson, don't believe everything that you see, I just don't feel like explaining. Just relax and go to sleep, okay?"

However, leaving her alone was the last thing that he wanted to do. He tore off her pajamas, grabbed her arms forcibly, and demanded her to answer him, "Are you getting tired of me?" "What?"

Cherry sensed that his anger was boiling, and was afraid that he would not leave her alone if she kept defying him. She thought that she might as well obey and please him to prevent him from finding out that she was pregnant.

Her gaze on Jackson then turned affectionate. She suddenly kissed him, and her lips pressed and rubbed gently onto his in a kind of sensual dance.

She ended the argument before Jackson even realized what happened.

Jackson was surprised, and he immediately fixed his eyes on her; he had not expected her to kiss him first.

Cherry whispered in a sweet and gentle tone, "I'm so tired, I just want to sleep. Please!"

Jackson, as always, surrendered to her girly behavior, and his rage and fierceness extinguished in just moments. Looking at the woman under him, he thought how could he ever do anything against her will?

He kissed her tenderly on her forehead, flipped her over, and held her tightly in his arms. Breathing her scent, he fondly said, "Sleep tight, I'll be right here with you."

Cherry did not show any reluctance this time, because this was the best that she could have hoped for the moment. She whispered to him, "You too."

As Cherry cuddled up against him, she had a feeling of reassurance, and it did not take long before she fell asleep. She thought, 'It's so good to have him beside me now, I don't feel so lonely any more. Every time I saw that he was anxious for me and angry about the things that I did, I thought that he cared about me and loved me, but as soon as Sally showed up, he lost all of his calm. He'll do anything for that woman, even abandon me. He cares so much about her, but what about me? Did he ever think about how sad I would be?

It feels like he and I have returned at the very beginning of our relationship, when we got married just for our own sake; he, for stopping the endless blind dates, and I for escaping from the Shen clan, but, unfortunately, marriage is like a tomb that buries us little by little. Should this child really come to this world?'

Cherry slept until she woke up natural. When she opened her eyes, Jackson was looking at her affectionately.

"Awake?" he asked fondly. He could not get enough of her sleeping face.

"Yes. When did you wake up?" asked Cherry.

"Just now, " said Jackson, as he caressed her hair and pulled it behind her ears. He then asked attentively, "Are you hungry?"

She then unconsciously put her hands on her stomach, and said, "No, not really."

Her silly behavior pulled his heartstrings, and he suddenly felt that he could not stop loving her more and more by each passing day. He grabbed her waist and cuddled her,

Falling from nobility, Zen Luo became a humble slave and served as a human punchbag for his former cousins. Inadvertently, he found a way to refine himself into a weapon and a legend started because of that. With a strong belief in never surrender, he strove for revenges and pursued big dreams. Warriors from various clans contended for hegemony and the world was stirred. Relying on the body that was comparable to a powerful weapon, Zen beat his numerous enemies on his way to the immortality. Would he succeed eventually?

h. However, his heart was not hers, and now she had a baby. How could she ever let her child live the same agonizing life that she had? If she let that happen, she and Sally would then be just like her mother and Jade, spending all of their youth fighting for a man, leaving in the end nothing but scars on their own children. She would never let that happen to her and her child.

Stephen felt sorry for her, but could not find a single word in him to comfort her. Her tear made him understand that he had to help her to achieve what she wanted, by all means possible.

"What do I have to do?" asked Stephen.

Cherry's mood lifted slightly when Stephen promised to help her; her plan would be carried out smoothly with his assistance.

Cherry took out her passport, handed it over to him, and said, "Book me a flight on the day after tomorrow. Once I board, you have to find a way to erase any trace of my departure from Jackson. He can never find me again."

"A flight on the day after tomorrow?" said Stephen, surprised. "Why in such a hurry?"

Cherry shook her head, and said, "Jackson will come back home tomorrow and return to the barracks the day after that. I have to seize the opportunity, or otherwise, there'll be no way for me to leave him in the future."

Stephen asked nothing more, and just nodded.

Cherry warned him again, "Stephen, remember to wipe off all traces of my departure! I have high hopes on you."

Stephen then looked at Cherry and again nodded, but could not help but ask, "Cherry, do you really plan to keep the baby hidden from Jackson forever?"

Instead of giving him a straight answer, she said firmly, "You know that I don't change my mind so easily..."

She could not be more determined. It was time to give up the painful life she lived and start a new one, one where at least her child could grow up peacefully and be happy. No matter how Jackson would think of her, she would accept every blame and curse that he would throw at her.

Stephen nodded silently.
