Chapter 481 Why Is It (Part Three)

"Mommy, I want to always be with you and Daddy. I want our family of three. I believe that Daddy will protect us well, and I also know that Daddy loves you most. He won't fall in love with anyone else, " Joe finished firmly. He was much more confident than his mother, especially in his powers of observation. He knew his Daddy and Mommy well.

Cherry sighed in relief. "Joe, I am so lucky to have you as my son; you really are the apple of my eye." It was easy to be proud of Joe. He was smart, considerate and cute. She often thought it was because he had inherited excellent genes from Jackson.

"I love you too, Mommy. You are the greatest and nicest Mommy in the world, " Joe giggled and snuggled her closer.

Sitting leisurely in an armchair in his room, Mond enjoyed the glass of red wine in his hand. But contrary to appearances, his inner mind was in turmoil.

The dark yellow light showed his face, young, energetic and charming like a teenager's. However his appearance was rarely consistent with his deep inner heart, which often seemed to be aged and gloomy. Was it because he had suffered too much?

He swallowed the rest of the wine in his glass, his eyebrows furrowed together. He pondered, why was life so unfair to him? Why did he have such a miserable life? And why was he born to suffer from all this?

"Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.

but had she ever cared about him? Did she know he loved her? All her attention was for Jackson, and her heart taken by him too. Had she ever spared others a little space in her heart?

"Jackson, I have to admit that you're right. I won't hurt them. But if your wife were anyone but Cherry, I would surely do unimaginably horrible things to her, " Mond found himself confessing. He had no choice now, Jackson's wife was Cherry.

Jackson remained silent.

"Do you know why, Jackson?" Mond continued, tauntingly. "I've suddenly understood Stephen's feelings. Five years ago, Stephen started fighting with you. He helped Cherry run away from you, and kept her location secret. No matter how fiercely you would hurt him. He did too much for Cherry."

Mond paused, listening to Jackson breathe for a moment before continuing. "But now, I have the same feelings Stephen did. I want to protect Cherry and defend her from the evil things.
