Chapter 240 Bought Gifts With Son

Cherry got in the car but didn't start the engine right away, and instead reflected on what had happened to her in the parking lot. Although she had no idea of the driver's identity, she was sure that he had targeted at her life.

Cherry then suddenly thought of Joe, and was afraid that he might also get hurt.

She drove to Joe's school to check on him and to be sure that he was safe.

She stopped the car outside the school's gate. Although school wasn't over yet and all the students were in their classes, she still felt worried that her son might be in danger.

Cherry thought for a moment and then went to the porter to explain to him that she wanted to see her son. The porter was friendly, and he was more than glad to call Joe's class teacher.

A few minutes later, Joe's teacher came out with him.

Cherry felt relieved when she saw that her son was safe and sound.

Joe walked to his mom and held her hands. He said, "Mommy, why're you here?"

"I was worried about you, so I came here to check on you, " answered Cherry, smiling at her cute little boy. She relished to see her son happy and carefree.

Cherry then turned her gaze from Joe to his class teacher who was standing nearby, the same one that she had met last time.

The teacher gave Cherry a broad smile, and said, "Mrs. Cherry, are you here to take Joe home?"

Cherry put on a serious look on her face, and answered, "Yes, I have to take Joe away now. Can I ask for a leave for Joe?"

"That's alright, you can take your son now, everything is fine with me, " quickly said the teacher. She knew that Joe was Jackson's son, and that she had to treat him and Cherry respectfully. She knew that if she ever dared to provoke them she might get herself into greater trouble.

Cherry was surprised to see that the teacher permitted her son to leave immediately. She said, "Thank you, madam!"

"No problem, goodbye!" politely said the teacher.

The smile on her face quickly disappeared after she saw Cherry's car pull away from the school's gates. The porter then came to her, and as he looked at the fading car, he said, "As far as I'm concerned, she looks to be too young to be a mother."

"She's the most revered woman in the city!" said the class teacher, with genuine admiration in her voice. Although Cherry wasn't as beautiful as a goddess, she

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?

him and said, "Daddy, help me with this bag!"

When Jackson saw that his son was carrying so many things, he quickly stood up from the couch, took the bags from his hands and put them on the table. Looking at Cherry, he saw that she was also carrying some bags in her hands.

Jackson felt awful that Cherry had to carry all those bags by herself and hastily went to her to relieve her of that burden.

"Where have you been? On a shopping spree, huh?" asked Jackson.

"I bought them for Joe's Great-Grandpa and his little friends back at the military's residential compound, " said Cherry after she fell on the couch.

Seeing that Cherry was tired, Jackson poured a glass of water for her.

"Here, drink some water, " said Jackson.

Cherry took the glass from his hand and drank some of it. She then put the glass on the table, and as she looked at her son, she said, "Joe, pick the gifts for your Great-Grandpa first; you can give the rest of them to your friends tomorrow."

"Okay, " said Joe while he nodded, and then started to sort out the gifts from the shopping bags.

Jackson turned his gaze from Joe to Cherry, and said, "Why didn't you call me? I would have come to the store to help you with all those bags."

"I didn't know you were back. Anyway, Joe was really helpful with those bags, " answered Cherry.

Jackson passionately held Cherry in his arms, and said, "Next time, please don't wear yourself out like this. Just call me, I can also always send Bill if I'm away, remember?"

"Alright, " said Cherry and silently nodded.
