In the Chu Family's house, Cherry and Jackson were laying together in bed. Cherry was leaning against Jackson's chest, thinking of what Wilson had told her earlier in the day. Because the mysterious ZM Group was competing with the JS Group, she wondered whether the JS Group would face a major crisis or not.

"Jackson, " suddenly said Cherry.

"What's up?" answered Jackson, curious about her thoughts.

"Do you know anything about the ZM Group's background? How could it have developed so fast?" asked Cherry.

Jackson didn't know how to answer Cherry's question. He thought for a moment, and then carefully answered her, "The president of the ZM Group is an amazing guy, which explains its rapid development and expansion."

"Nothing, I just wanted to check on you. That's all, " answered Jean casually. She looked into Joe's eyes and saw his serious expression when he talked to her. 'The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. There's no doubt that he's Jackson's son, ' she thought.

"Well, now that you've seen me, please go away, " said Joe and then turned around, but before he could leave, he was quickly stopped by Jean.

Joe stopped when he heard her voice, and then turned around and looked at her. "What's wrong?" he asked.

"Can you ask for a few hours' leave?" blurted Jean. She had no idea why she said that, but maybe it was because she wanted to talk with the boy in private. After all, he was her nephew, and talking with him through a gate felt uncomfortable.
