Chapter 587 Cute Son

Cherry and Jackson went downstairs to check on lunch. They were surprised to see so much food when they got to the kitchen.

"Oh my, we're going to have such a hearty lunch!" Cherry clapped, pleased with Lily's preparations.

"Thank you for preparing all this," Jackson thanked Lily.

"Mr. Jackson, Mrs. Cherry, you are very kind. I am just doing my job. Today is very important for all of you with the arrival of Mr. Wilson and Mrs. Selina. I'm just happy to see you all happy together!" Lily shared with Cherry and Jackson.

Jackson smiled while asking. "Cherry, shall we wait for them out front?" Cherry nodded.

Cherry took Jackson's outstretched hand and let herself be pulled out of the kitchen, towards the front door. They waited by the gate for Wilson, Selina, Amy, and Derek.

Joe added the last dot on his homework and replaced it with his school things. He rushed out of his room and to his parent's room. He opened it and shouted,"I'm done!" But the room was empty. Joe rushed down the stairs and to the dining room. "Mommy! Daddy! I'm done with homework!" But the living room was also empty.

"Mommy, Daddy, are Uncle Wilson and Auntie Selina here?" Joe shouted as he entered the living room but no one was there. Joe stood in place with a pout on his lips. "Where is everybody?" he muttered out loud.

He went out into the hall and saw the front door was open. Joe, curious, padded to the front and peeked out.

He finally saw Jackson and Cherry wait by the gate and dashed towards them.

"Mommy! Daddy! Why are you out here? I've been looking everywhere for you!" Joe demanded.

Joe rushed to Cherry's arms, who hugged him to her side. "We're waiting for your uncle and auntie."

Joe looked up at Cherry. "I finished my homework, Mommy," Joe proudly announced.

Cherry patted Joe's head. "That's good. You can play for the rest of the day. Cherry smiled at her son and marveled at how adorable he was, as long as he was not being naughty.

"Thank you, Mommy, but I'll wait here for my uncle and auntie," Joe told Cherry. "Maybe auntie became prettier," Joe told his parents.

"Do you like beautiful women, Joe?" Cherry asked with a giggle.

"Of course

“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...

il college?

Cherry was taken aback at Joe's words.

Joe noticed the surprise in Cherry's face and explained,"The girls in my class kept sending me breakfast, cards, trinkets and other things. They drived me crazy, Mommy, when I just wanted to focus on studying."

"What are you talking about, Joe?" Cherry asked. Cherry realized she knew little about her son and what he went through at school.

"It's okay, Mommy. Don't worry. I turned them all down. I'm still single," Joe reassured Cherry.

Cherry was speechless. She didn't know what to say.

She turned to Jackson for answers. "Jackson, did you have the same problems when you were Joe's age?"

Jackson shrugged his shoulders. "I guess. But it happened more during primary school than kindergarten. I got a lot of cards and gifts from the girls in my class. And from other classes, too."

Before Cherry could say anything, Joe asked her a question.

"Mommy, what age were you when you had your first suitor? Did you go out with him?" Joe asked with curious eyes.

Jackson's interest was piqued. He didn't know a lot about Cherry's past and he also wanted to know the answer to Joe's question.

"Well..." Cherry started. She looked at the two pairs of eager eyes.

Joe grew impatient. "Tell me, Mommy," he urged.

Jackson kept his ears open for Cherry's answer.

"It's a secret," Cherry returned with a playful smile. "Sorry, boys, it's a secret," Cherry teased Joe and Jackson.
