Chapter 577 Meeting

The gates of the warehouse opened and Jonson walked in.

Jonson was wearing a dark grey suit and was accompanied by four bodyguards. He looked formidable but his face was kinder and his demeanour was more polite than that of Eric's.

Jonson knew that Bobby and Eric had kidnapped Cherry and brought her here. On entering, he didn't pay any heed to either of them and walked straight towards Cherry. He stood in front of her and respectfully said,"Mrs. Cherry, I hope you're alright. I am Jonson."

Jonson was sincerely kind and his voice harboured no viciousness at all. Jonson was a reasonable man and did not appreciate this move by Eric. Jackson and him had a few issues to deal with amongst themselves. But he saw no reason to drag Cherry into this mess. Especially when she was pregnant. Cherry had nothing to do with all of this.

Cherry slightly nodded her head, still hesitant to speak anything. She looked into Jonson's eyes and saw a lot of kindness. His face had a tender, concerned look. 'He seems like a nice person, or is he?' thought Cherry.

After speaking to Cherry, Jonson looked around and saw Lily, standing in a corner. He went closer to speak to her and realized that he had met her somewhere before. He couldn't recall where or how he knew her, but he just felt that he recognised her.

When Lily saw Jonson looking at her with a knowing expression, she felt as if she was busted. She realised that Jonson may have identified her even though she was trying very hard to hide herself from the situation. According to Lily, there were two kinds of people in this world: those who looked tough and cruel from outside but were kind and naive inside and those, who looked calm and kind on the outside but are vicious inside. Lily knew that Jonson fit into the latter category of people.

"Who are you?" Jonson asked her.

"I am the housemaid of the Chu family, Sir. Madam is pregnant and her health is delicate at the moment. That is why I am accompanying her," replied Lily in a respectful manner. She didn't want Jonson to get suspicious of her, but at the same time, she wasn't an actress either. She was worried whether she could pull this off or not. At first, Lily decided to not make an eye contact. But sh

“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...

olded Eric. As humongous the benefits were, Jonson could not forget or undermine Andrew's contribution to his own life. He wouldn't have been who he was, without Andrew's help.

"Well, we'll see about that when he brings us the token," said Eric. He knew that the token of the Chu family had been missing for quiet sometime. And the whereabouts were unknown. There was a chance that Jackson might not have it either. The token could have been with other people.

With this, Jonson also fell silent. They waited for Jackson to show up.

Watching Jonson succumb to silence, Eric was now sure that he had managed to convince Jonson of his words. He too leaned back and waited. The men at the door had been ordered to call and inform them, if Jackson did show up. Then they would be prepared for him. All there was to do now was wait.

"Mrs. Cherry, are you tired of standing there? Do you need a chair or something?" Eric pretended to show concern for Cherry. Without waiting for a response, he winked at Bobby, who then pulled a chair for her.

Bobby carefully left the chair next to her. But Cherry remained standing and did not move at all. The atmosphere was very tense, with all the bodyguards and the warehouse. She was too scared to move an inch, even though nothing worth fearing for had happened so far.

"What on earth do you want?" Cherry asked, impatiently. She was getting very anxious and uneasy because she was in a horrible place like this, without Jackson by her side.
