Jackson drove his car to the JS Group at full speed, with his mind a total mess.
He thought, 'Cherry, what the hell is happening here?
Do we really have a son together? Why didn't you tell me about him?
Cherry, how could you dare to hide him from me!'
At that same time, Cherry was in a huge warehouse looking at an old man who was standing not that far away from her. He was trying to move a box with great efforts.
Cherry's eyes filled with tears when she saw him. She stood there for a while just staring at him, but because the man was so busy with his work, he didn't even notice her for a second.
"Dad!" suddenly shouted Cherry.
Harrison vaguely heard someone's voice, and thought, 'I'm always working here alone. Who could possibly also be here at this hour?'
He stopped his work and then gazed towards the entrance.
When he recognized the familiar figure, he started to shiver uncontrollably. He moved his lips and wanted to say something, but his throat was too dry to even utter a single word.
Cherry then slowly walked closer to him and saw the wrinkles on his face and the dirty clothes he wore. She could hardly believe that the man in front of her was really her father Harrison Shen. He had used to be a decent and respectable man, but who would have ever imagined that he would become like that?
"Why, why, why are you here?" astoundedly asked Harrison.
"Dad, I came here to see you, " replied Cherry, with tears streaming down her cheeks.
Harrison felt very sad when he saw his daughter crying. He dropped his gaze to avoid eye contact with her, and said, "Let's get out of this messy place."
Cherry didn't say anything, and instead turned around and walked towards the exit.
Then they sat on some chairs outside and had their first talk after years of separation.
Harrison curiously asked, "When did you come back to the city? I heard that you vanished completely, and that even Jackson wasn't able to find you." He still had his head lowered, and still felt awkward to look at Cherry when he talked with her, because he hadn't forgotten about anything that had happened in the past.
"I've been back for some time already, but before that I lived with my mom abroad, " replied Cherry.
Harrison felt even worse in his soul when he heard Cherry mention about her mother. He asked, "How's your mother now?
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?
f the Shen Clan, and she's still my sister, that's a fact that will never change. Although she hurt me deeply in the past, our blood ties can never be cut."
When Harrison heard her words, he felt very sorry in his heart for everything that he had done in the past. He regretted that he hadn't discovered his daughter's innocent soul earlier.
They then continued to chat with each other for a long time.
Before Cherry left she took out some money from her handbag and put it in Harrison's hand. She then said, "Dad, you can find a better job than this, and you can also find a better place to live. I can't help you with too much now, but after I deal with my matters I'll help you settle somewhere nice."
Cherry was very happy to have met with her father again, but that wasn't the most important matter that she had to deal with. She hadn't properly handled her relationship with Jackson, and also hadn't told him about Joe's existence. These matters were more important for her, and she had to face them alone.
Harrison lowered his head and again fell into silence.
Cherry then stood up from her seat and was about to leave.
"Cherry!" suddenly called Harrison. He slowly stood up and looked at Cherry.
Cherry stopped in her tracks but didn't turn around.
"Please forgive me, my daughter!" cried Harrison, with tears welling from his eyes.
When she heard him, Cherry couldn't help herself but to burst out crying. Had he finally realized that she was his daughter, the same as Jean? Did he finally see how bad he had hurt her feelings in the past?
