Chapter 320 All Set (Part One)

When she opened the door, Cherry saw that Mond was standing in front of the French window, gazing outside.

Even though he knew that she had walked in, he still didn't turn around to look at her.

Cherry then walked up to him and stopped when she was just a couple of feet away from him, but Mond still had his back turned to her. Cherry was confused by his reaction, and she asked, "Why are you here?"

After he heard Cherry's question, Mond slowly turned around to look at her. He answered, "Haven't I told you already?"

"What have you told me already?" asked Cherry confused, but expressionless.

Mond slightly smiled at her, and replied, "I'm your client."

"But your name isn't on the contract. What's going on here?" asked Cherry. She thought it was quite strange for her to find him there.

"Cherry, you're such a silly girl!" replied Mond. He resigned himself to the thought that sometimes she was foolish, but cute.

Cherry felt annoyed when she heard what he had just said to her, because she still didn't get the answer to her question.

When he saw that he got no reply out of Cherry, Mond felt the urge to explain things to her in more detail. This feeling was new to him, because up until then he had never felt the need to explain anything to anyone. Why did he suddenly want to do that?

"You know that my target is the JS Group, and specifically Jackson, " said Mond slowly.

Then it dawned on Cherry. She couldn't believe what she had just heard, and said, "But the company isn't yours!"

"I will take over his company, " said Mond without any sort of hesitation.

"Do you mean that the moment this contract is signed, the company will belong to you?" asked Cherry, while pointing to the contract in her hand.

"Cherry, you're even more clever than I thought, " replied Mond, with the corner of his lips curling up.

Cherry shook her head, shocked by his horrible and disastrous idea. She thought, 'If someone else had come here today to get this contract signed, they wouldn't have had a clue about what t

“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.

“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.

Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...

he had loved.

"You know more than I thought, " replied Mond bluntly.

Cherry wondered, 'What Jackson refused to tell me, was it what happened between him and Sally?' Nobody had been willing to tell her what had happened between them in the past.

"Are you going to tell me why Sally left Jackson?" asked Cherry.

Mond was a little taken aback when he heard what Cherry asked him, because she seemed to know a whole lot more than he had thought to. When he thought better, he remembered that she was Jackson's wife, and that of course she had to know things about her husband.

When Cherry saw that she got no reply from Mond, she asked again, "Is she the one?"

"Cherry, you're more clever than I thought you to be, " replied Mond.

Cherry knew that he had acknowledged her answer, and she eagerly asked him again, "What happened back then? Why did Sally leave Jackson?"

"Because Sally's parents died, " simply replied Mond.

Cherry was shocked by his unexpected answer and another shiver went down her spine. Why were her parents dead? Was that the reason why she had left the military residential compound? According to what she knew, the army had a system to take care of the children whose parents had died as soldiers; they didn't need to move from the residential compound, because the army provided them with everything that they needed.
