Chapter 221 How Did You Get In Here (Part One)

Jackson was in doubt. He said, "I'm not sure. Cherry saw the photo of him and Stephen, so she might have remembered his face. What if..."

Derek suddenly became nervous, and asked, "Have they actually met each other?"

Jackson shook his head, and replied, "No, I don't think so."

Derek felt more relieved after he heard him. He said, "That's good. If they meet each other, I think that he'll certainly lay his eyes on her, just because Cherry's yours."

"I won't let them meet!" said Jackson firmly, and with a determined look in his eyes. He was willing to protect Cherry at all costs.

Derek then fell silent, and seemed to be thinking of something.

Jackson suddenly said, "However, for the moment, this is not the most important thing that we need to handle."

Derek was confused when heard this, and asked, "Then what is?"

"Jean is back in the city, " calmly replied Jackson.

Derek opened his eyes wide, and while he stared at Jackson, he asked, "When did she come back?"

"She's been back for some time already, but I don't know what she wants to do."

Derek furiously said, "You shouldn't have released her! Now that she's back, nobody knows what she'll do!"

Jackson became silent, and was lost in thought.

As he slowly shook his head, Derek helplessly continued, "Jackson, ever since you met Cherry, you've changed completely. You let Jean out for Cherry, right? And you also haven't destroyed Stephen yet, also because of Cherry. Jean and Stephen are ticking time bombs, just waiting to explode. Do you understand me?"

Jackson still said nothing, because he knew it better than anyone else, but when he thought about Cherry, he felt it hard for him to ruin them.

"Do you know what you did wrong? It's alright if you just wanted to own me. But you should not have helped Molly leave me!"

When Brian learns the truth, there is no chance for Hannah to win his heart.

Molly, who wants to run away from Brian, seems to be the only one to blame for Hannah's misfortune...

He asked, "Why are you reading that?"

Cherry didn't look at Jackson; instead, she looked sideways, and calmly told him, "I'm tired, and I want to go to my room and rest."

Cherry then passed Jackson's side and left.

He was astonished, and wondered whether she was running away from him or not.

After Cherry returned to her room she closed the door and sat on the edge of the bed. She had mixed feelings stirred inside her, because she didn't know how to face Jackson anymore.

Joe also returned home from school, and the moment he ran into the living room, he shouted, "Mommy, Mommy, I'm home!"

Joe saw that his Daddy was sitting on the sofa and watching the military news on TV.

He looked at Jackson, and said, "Daddy, I'm back."

Jackson turned around and also looked at his son, and said, "You finished school so early?"

"Yes, " said Joe while he nodded.

After a while, when he saw that Jackson was silent, Joe said, "Daddy, I'll go upstairs now and see my Mommy."

Joe noticed that his Daddy was watching the news and ignoring him, so he turned around and quickly ran upstairs to his mother's bedroom.
