Jackson then tightly held her, and fondly whispered in her ear, "Baby, please understand Grandpa. He's old now, and I've never been at his side for so many years, but now that we're here with him, and because he requested me to do this, I didn't want to turn him down. I didn't want to let him worry about anything."
Cherry then said, "So you chose me instead to worry?" Cherry stared blankly in front of her, and continued to say, "Did you forget what she said to me and our son?"
Cherry became mad when she remembered the past, because Lucia had always insulted her, ever since the day they had first met. Now Lucia had grown even more bolder, and had had the nerve to insult Joe when he was right in front of her. How could Cherry forgive anyone who hurt her son like that?
Jackson moved closer to her ear, and said, "She won't behave like that again, trust me."
Cherry didn't hear him; instead, she had deepened in her thoughts, and said, "Jackson, you know what? Before we got back together, I always worried that Joe would somehow be hurt, and I don't want him to be harmed at such an early age. He should have a carefree childhood, just like the other kids have, and when I saw that Lucia insulted him, I was really angry.

Cherry couldn't help but cry. She was mad at Lucia not because she had insulted her, but because she had done that to her son. The only thing that she wanted to do was to protect Joe and to provide him with the best life that she could.

"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...
years ago, he's old and feeble now, but he's still of use to me, because he has power. How can I give up the chance of taking advantage of him so easily when he could be so useful and valuable?'
The door was closed, and the butler turned his gaze to Jackson's. He thought, 'I can't do anything now that Jackson has come back here. He is very alert, and if he finds out anything that I plan to do, all my schemes will go up in smoke. I shouldn't underestimate Jackson's ability, and besides, he's even more vicious than Andrew used to be. After all, I have witnessed how the Ye Family and An Family were destroyed many years ago, and Jackson is smarter and more venomous than I have ever thought.'
The butler then turned around and went back his own room. He closed the door behind him and leaned his back against the door, with his keen eyes looking straight ahead. He thought to himself, 'Andrew and Jackson Chu, Mond Xu, Sally He and Stephan An! All of them are under my control, and none of them can escape! However, the man I worry about most is not Mond Xu, but Jackson...'
