When the elevator opened, Cherry saw that Jackson had raised his hand to hit Joe.
She quickly ran out of the elevator and pushed him away, and then she tightly held Joe in her arms.
"What were you going to do?" said Cherry, with her eyes glaring on Jackson.
When Joe saw his mommy, he jumped into her arms and suddenly burst into tears.
"Mommy!" cried Joe with tears flowing down his cheeks. He had been frightened earlier by Jackson, but now he was safe and sound in his mommy's warm arms, and couldn't help but let out tears of joy.
"Don't be afraid, Joe, mommy's here now, " said Cherry as she caressed Joe's head and tried to comfort him.
Afterwards, Cherry took a look at Selina, which made her feel embarrassed. After all, she was the one who had called Jackson and started the whole mess in the first place, and now Selina felt guilty for that.
Selina immediately shook her hands and explained, "Cherry, it's not what you think! My brother wasn't going to hit Joe!"
But before Selina had the chance to finish her words, she was interrupted by Cherry.
"Was it you who told him?" Cherry thought that her guess was correct. She had told Jackson to stay at home and wait for her, but she found him nearly hitting their son at her workplace. She was sure that Selina had been the one that betrayed her. Because according to her acquaintance with Selina during this period, she knew that Selina was so close to Jackson, and almost told him everything.
Selina wanted to explain herself but had no chance. "It's not like that, " she said.
All of a sudden, Jackson grabbed Cherry's neck and stared at her from up close, somehow studying her. "You haven't told me who's the boy!" he said.
Cherry wanted to resist Jackson but couldn't, and his hand seemed to be locked on her neck. He had grabbed her with true fury burning inside of him and was nearly suffocating her.
Struggling, Cherry said, "He, he's my son..." Now that Jackson had already found out the truth about him there was no need for her to hide Joe from him any longer. She had intended to tell Jackson about him sooner or later, but it had never occurred to her that he would find out in such a disturbing circumstance.
Jackson was infuriated; he moved his lips but Cherry couldn't understand what he was saying to her.
"Really?" asked Jackson. He continue
Jean Wen sacrificed herself for family interests. Before her husband divorced her, she made every effort to please him.
"You are inexperienced in bed," he said coldly.
"You! Give that land to my family, or I won't agree to divorce," Jean replied furiously.
"Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.
athing in her eyes, and said, "Jackson, if anything happened to my son, I will never forgive you all my life!"
With these words, Cherry lifted Joe up in her arms and strode towards the elevator.
When Selina saw Cherry walking to the elevator she went after her.
In front of the emergency room at the hospital, Cherry was restless waiting for news about her son's condition.
Jackson was also standing near her, completely silent.
Selina then walked to Cherry, and comforted her, "Sister, don't worry, Joe will be fine!"
Wilson also arrived at this time. He walked towards them quickly from a short distance.
He took a quick glance at Jackson and then hurriedly walked up to Cherry. Seeing that Cherry was so weak and feeble, he asked, "Cherry, what on earth happened?"
"Brother, Joe has to be okay, right? Right?" She couldn't stand it anymore, and finally burst into tears in front of Wilson.
Wilson immediately nodded, and said, "Yes, don't worry, he'll be okay! He has to be!"
Wilson didn't know exactly what had happened. He had only heard from Cherry over the phone that Joe had gotten hurt and then he came to the hospital as soon as possible.
Cherry lowered her head, and said to herself, "I only have Joe on this world. I can't let him leave me, he'll be okay, nothing is going to happen to him, nothing..."
When he saw Cherry like that, Wilson heart ached very much, because he knew that Joe was the center of her whole life and how much he meant to her. At that moment, it was clear that she was going through hell. Literally.
