"Jackson, do you mean I have no choice but to be a daughter-in-law of the Chu Family?" Cherry asked playfully.
"That's exactly what I mean, " Jackson said decidedly. 'When I decided to marry her, I made up my mind to keep her as mine for this lifetime, ' he thought to himself.
"There's nothing Jackson wants that he can't get. So you're bound to get back to him sooner or later, " Derek said, chuckling. 'What an interesting and romantic conversation, ' he thought.
"Jackson, thank you for loving me, " Cherry told her husband affectionately. She looked on him with great adoration.
"My little fool, " Jackson replied lovingly. He stroked Cherry's hair gently. This moment, right here, he knew he was the happiest man in the world. 'I have a warm, loving family, and I live with them, my doting wife and darling son. They are the people I love most on this earth, ' he thought as his fingers wound through Cherry's long hair.
Derek pretended to cough. "Please, I'm still here, " he remarked bashfully, turning his head away.
"You know, Derek, after you and Amy get married, you two might be in such a close relationship just like ours now, " Cherry joked. 'Derek hasn't felt the happiness that such a close relationship like ours brings. They've only seen each other a few times. Once they're spending more time together, he'll be immersed in the sweetness that love brings.'
"Maybe, " Derek casually responded, pretending not to care.

Once her tutoring time was over, Amy returned downstairs. She smiled as she noticed the three of them were talking cheerfully and humorously, and she walked towards them.

It all starts on that fateful night.
When Ella, who is the dear sister of Samuel’s best buddy, sneaks into the hotel where the drunken Samuel resides and gets pregnant…
"I don’t want a divorce!"
"I don’t want a divorce!"
"I did no such thing!"
Ella jumped on the bed and cried out. “I don’t want a scheming woman as my wife. Just sign the paper...

If all my students could be like Joe, my job would be much easier, " Amy replied, a delighted smile on her face. She couldn't help but feel glad at the thought of Cherry's son. 'He is a good student, and such a kid is rare these days.'
"Yeah, he is. Joe inherited all his father's merits. Such a clever boy, " Derek echoed. "But don't push yourself so hard. If you feel tired, you can stick with just teaching Joe, and quit or postpone your other tutoring jobs."
"That's a good idea. I might consider it later. I can handle all my work for the moment, " Amy replied.
It wasn't long before they arrived at Amy's apartment. Parking outside, Amy lingered in her seat. "Are you coming with me?" she asked.
Her invite surprised Derek. 'Of course I'd like to. But I couldn't actively ask to visit her house until she asked first, ' he thought.
"Do you mean that?" he asked aloud. He was overjoyed inside.
Amy nodded in agreement and looked at him with a smile.
"Okay, " he agreed. He removed his car key and got out of the car with Amy.
They walked hand-in-hand into the apartment building together.
