Chapter 210 You Are Not Qualified (Part One)

Cherry stood behind Stephen, also stunned by his sudden move. She hadn't expected him to defend her against Sally.

Stephen didn't answer Sally, and instead said, "Let's continue our conversation next time. You can leave here now."

Sally stared at him with anger in her eyes, and thought in her mind, 'Stephen, how could you lose your judgement in front of this woman? If so, how could we continue with our future plan?'

Stephen saw that Sally still had no intention to leave. He felt troubled, because he knew Sally well and understood that she wouldn't do anything against her will.

Stephen then turned around to face Cherry, and in a much softer tone, said, "Let's get out of here."

He didn't wait for Cherry's reply, and immediately took her arm and was about to leave the office with her.

When Sally saw them leaving, she suddenly shouted, "Stephen, if she knew all of our things, do you think that she would still go with you?"

When they heard Sally's words, Stephen and Cherry both suddenly stopped.

Cherry looked at Stephen and didn't say a word, and instead waited for him to say something.

Stephen thought for a while and decided that it should be the best for him to keep silent. Eventually, he left with Cherry.

Cherry walked behind Stephen with her arm in his hand. While they were going down the stairway, Cherry asked, "Where are we going?"

But Stephen didn't answer her.

After Cherry waited for him to reply for some time, she curiously looked at him, and found that anger was written all over his face. She then suddenly felt that Stephen wasn't as easygoing as he usually was.

Cherry understood that she would be annoying if she kept asking Stephen, because at that moment her words were nothing but a background noise for him.

She decided to be silent, and to

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex. To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him. "As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women...

uestions would be finally answered.

Stephen continued to stare at the scenery outside, still struggling in his mind. He thought, 'Should I tell her the whole truth? If I tell it to her without Jackson's permission, would he kill me for it?'

After the long silence between them, Stephen finally asked, "Cherry, are you sure that you want to know about it?"

"Yes, " replied Cherry without any sort of hesitation. She then slowly moved one step at a time closer to him.

Stephen turned around to face her, and earnestly said, "I warn you that once you're aware of some things, you might be in danger. Aren't you afraid of that?"

Cherry shook her head and showed him the determined look in her eyes. She told herself that she wouldn't feel afraid of anything, even if it meant risking her own life. She wanted to accompany Jackson and to go forward with him side by side, because nothing could stop her from loving him.

"Cherry, I still don't want to let you know. Although everyone including Jackson concealed it from you, they only did it for your own good. It would be better that you don't know about it, " said Stephen, who had hesitated for a long time, eventually deciding not to tell her.
