Chapter 381 The World Of Mother And Son (Part One)

Jackson headed downstairs after a while.

He walked into the dinning room, sat next to Cherry and called to Lily in the kitchen, "Lily, bring me a set of chopsticks, please."

Lily was happy that he came downstairs finally and gladly replied, "Of course, here you are."

Cherry silently continued eating her dinner, even though she knew that Jackson was sitting close to her.

Joe looked from his Mommy to his Daddy and knew from their expression, that they both had something on their minds, so he kept quiet. He was thrilled his Daddy was there for dinner because that meant his Daddy was moving past the sadness.

They finished their dinner in silence and when it was over Jackson went back upstairs again.

Cherry asked her son to go do his homework up in his room, and she would be right up, as soon as she finished helping Lily clear the table.

When she got to Joe's room, Cherry watched Joe doing homework while thinking about what Jackson had said to her. His decision had taken her by surprise, it wasn't something she ever thought he would tell her.

Jackson lay there awake, hearing her sobbing quietly and knew she was crying.

After a while, he rolled over, put his arms around her and held her closely to him as usual.

Cherry felt Jackson's body heat, but continued to quietly cry.

Jackson felt a piercing in his heart, and a warm sensation spread through him. He wanted to be close to this woman and needed to feel her breath on him. He wanted to be near her all the time. However, he was so full of grief for Andrew that he ignored Cherry. It also tortured him everyday when he rejected Cherry.

Jackson stopped overthinking and murmured in her ear, "Baby, you should sleep now."
