Chapter 83 She Came Back

Jackson did not respond in haste. Instead, he lifted Sally's chin with his fingers and caressed her. He carefully measured her delicate face with his gaze.

"You tell me", Jackson finally retorted.

Sally knew already that Jackson had no intension of answering her question. She came forward in a jiffy, kissed his lips and did not let it go until several minutes had passed.

Staring deep into his eyes, she spoke intently, "Jackson, I love you."

Slowly moving forward, she pressed her breasts against his chest. Her face only inches away from his, she whispered into his ears tantalisingly, "And I want you."

Jackson didn't push her away. He reached for her waist. Although Sally was perfectly beautiful and she had been loved by him before, Jackson had never felt his heartbeats accelerate in her presence. On the contrary, the only woman whose beauty could take his breath away, had now become his pain spot.

Feeling his hands on her waist, Sally smiled and thought Jackson was still attracted by her charm and he still loved her, thus wanting her body. Tonight, she would do anything to bring him to his knees.

She started to unbutton her blouse. She continued to undress slowly, making sure to get Jackson restless.

Just when she was about to take off her G-string, Jackson suddenly grabbed her hands and stopped her midway.

Taken aback by this suddenness, she looked at Jackson puzzled and muttered, "What's wrong?"

He collected her clothes, that she had taken off only moments ago, and put them back on Sally's naked body. Then, he pushed her away.

Jackson set off, taking several hesitant steps forward, until he finally stopped and turned back to look at her one last time, "I'm leaving. Goodbye."

But even before he could leave the room, Sally ran forward and embraced him from behind. She cried, "Jackson, please, don't leave me alone! I'm so scared. I need your presence."

And yet, her pleading tears couldn't touch Jackson's heart. For him, her coquetry meant nothing.

Deliberately moving her hands away from his chest, Jackson turned round and looked into her eyes with an intense gaze. He stroked her cheek tenderly and said, "Be good. Now, go to bed. I have to go."

With those words, Jackson went away.

Sally stood there, still for a long time. Tears streaming down her face, she stared at the f

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?

r had not changed at all, she thought to herself.

"Selina, you are hurting me, " Derek was actually mad at his sister. She had always been such a bigmouth and behaved erratically.

Selina made a face at him and then turned to Jackson who seemed quiet but cold, as always. Derek had already briefed her on the phone that Jackson's wife had gone missing without any explainable reason. She assumed that Jackson must be feeling bad.

To lift his spirits, she addressed with a broad smile, "Jackson, won't you throw a welcome party for me? Or at least you can buy me lunch!"

"Ok, choose a restaurant, and the treat is on me, " Jackson replied with a hint of warmth in his voice. He did not want to be cold to Selina, who had grown up with Derek and him, and had been like a little sister to him; He shared a close bond with both Derek and Selina.

Selina was delighted. She grabbed Jackson's arm and teased Derek with great pleasure, "Jackson has always been so good to me! A man as generous as Jackson is my big brother and you, on the other hand, Derek...you are so mean, as always."

"Selina, have I ever been mean to you? Don't be so ungrateful!" Derek retorted with feigned indignation again.

"I have given up every single morsel of delicious food for you, ever since we were kids. How dare you forget that?" he added in an injured tone.

"Don't be ridiculous, big brother!" Selina shot another devious glance at her brother. Although she voiced her dislike towards Derek, actually she loved him to bits. They had always been close to each other.
