Chapter 124 Could You Drive Cherry Home

Inside the toilet, Cherry looked at herself in the mirror and suddenly lost all of her confidence. She

couldn't believe the woman staring at her from the other side of the mirror was her. Just now, Jackson,

sitting next to her, answered Sally's call. It was obvious that he still loved Sally. Cherry thought to

herself, 'There is no way for me to walk back into his heart. Even though five years have past and I've

come back, nothing has changed. He still loves Sally.'

Cherry kept throwing water to her face and tried to clam down by the cold water.

After a while, Cherry wiped the water on her face with a napkin. Then she took in a deep breath, smiled

to herself and thought, 'Cherry, now Jackson isn't the most important person in your life. It is your son,

Joe, who is the most treasured person to you. So, as long as Joe is good, you should be satisfied. Why

should you care about Jackson?'

After Cherry adjusted her mood, she was going to walk out of the toilet.

But the moment she walked out of the toilet, she was pulled by a strong hand and pressed against the

wall. Cherry had wanted to cry out a shout, because she had been pulled by someone all of sudden.

But the familiar smell immediately helped her identify who it was. She was very familiar with the smell

of Jackson.

Jackson slammed her against the wall angrily, moving close to her and his chest touching her soft

boobs.

Cherry asked nervously, "Jackson, what do you want?"

Jackson held her neck with one hand and lifted her face with the other hand. He had always been Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.

crazy about her beautiful face.

"Why did you run away?" Cherry heard Jackson ask coldly.

Cherry got the chills and understood what Jackson meant.

"You're getting a call. Is it appropriate for me to sit next to you there?" Cherry built up the courage and

asked.

"A call?" Jackson repeated her words and asked, "Do you care about me?"

"No!" Cherry quickly denied. She looked away and responded, "I have nothing to do with you or your

business."

"Really?" Jackson smiled devishly and moved even closer to Cherry. His face nearly touching hers.

Cherry pushed at his chest with her hands, not wanting him to be this close to her. She angrily

demanded, "Jackson! Get away from me! Go ahead and find that woman you love."

Jackson heard her words and that made him happy. He still wondered whether Cherry cared about

him.

He asked, "Are you jealous, Cherry? Eh?" Jackson was bossy and pressed his cheek against hers.

When he did so, Cherry quivered. She pushed Jackson and swore in low voice, "Jackson, I am telling

you, get out of here!"

When Jackson saw Cherry continuing to resist him, he was even happier. It almost seemed that they

had gone back to the way they had been before. Back in the day, whenever she had resisted him, he

had always ended up making fun of her. He wanted to dote on her, cherish her and love her.

Cherry noticed that Jackson had no intention to let go of her and still held her tight. She angrily said,

"Will you let go of me or not?"

"What if I don't?" Jackson asked unmoved. He thought to himself, 'I haven't revenged on her yet. How

dare she question me?'

Cherry heard this and felt like she really had no choice. He was so bossy. How could she threaten him

to do anything?

Noticing that she did not say anything, he asked her, "Do you feel comfortable in living with Wilson?"

Cherry, wide-eyed, wondered how he could ask such a question.

Jackson waited for a long time but did not get a response from her. So he pulled away from her face,

still staring at her and waited for her answer.

Cherry looked into his eyes and said coolly, "Yes, of course. I'm taken good care of everyday and he is

always concerned about me. Such a life is really happy."

After Jackson heard these words, his face darkened with anger.

Cherry saw that he was angry and she pushed him away forcibly. This time, he let himself be pushed

away easily. Cherry quickly turned around and left.

After she was gone, Jackson assessed the situation and quickly went after her. He had regretted letting

her leave him years ago. He would not let her do that again.

Cherry continued forward and Jackson chased after her anxiously.

As they crossed a door of a room, Jackson pulled her suddenly with one hand and opened the door

with the other hand. Then he pulled her inside the room.

It happened to be empty and dark. Jackson quickly shut the door behind him.

This time, Jackson stood against the wall himself and took Cherry into his arms.

"You..." But before Cherry could finish her sentence, Jackson began to kiss her. He put his arm around

her tiny waist, touched her hair with the other hand and kissed her fiercely.

"Um... Um..." Cherry tried her best to resist him.

Jackson had no intention to release her; he would not let go of her again.

Gradually, Cherry was overpowered by his kissing and could no longer resist him fiercely. Then, she

merely obeyed him. When Jackson kissed her possessively, the only thing she could do was to be a

little woman in his arms and let him do whatever he wanted to do.

Jackson felt her obedience and that made him very happy. He kept on kissing her, slowly reversed their

positions and pressed her against the wall.

Cherry was already intoxicated by his passionate and repeated kissing. She closed her eyes, slowly

threw her arms round his neck and finally began to kiss him back.

Feeling her action, Jackson couldn't help moving his hands further. He flipped the button in front of her

chest and put his hand inside the clothes. When he touched her bra, Jackson couldn't help grasping it

tightly.

Cherry immediately felt the grasp and gradually regained control of herself.

She opened her eyes, withdrew from his lips and recoiled her arms from around his neck.

Jackson looked at her, astonished.

Cherry quickly lowered her head and buttoned up her clothes. She realized it was just a room and not

her home.

Jackson did not care about that. He was addicted to her! He moved close to her again, lowered his

head to her ear, nibbled at her ear lobe and whispered, "Baby, come back to the apartment and live

with me. It is and will always be your home."

Cherry opened her eyes wide with astonishment and wondered what this invitation really meant. Was

Jackson asking her to move back to the apartment? If she agreed to move back, her son would

certainly come along into the apartment with her. No! It was impossible! She could not do that!

Cherry pushed Jackson away, looked at him and spoke seriously, "That's impossible!"

Jackson froze in confusion and thought to himself, 'What is wrong with her? Just a moment ago, she

was kissing me back. And now she rejects me. What is she thinking?'

Jackson had wanted to be gentle with her, but he hadn't really learnt how to be nice to her. So he

angrily said, "Don't ever forget that you are my woman!"

Cherry replied boldly, "So? I'm not the only woman you have. How many women have you slept with on

the bed of that apartment in the last five years?"

"Cherry!" Jackson snapped. Did she really think he was that kind of a person?

"What? Am I wrong?" Cherry was not afraid of him and she continued, "Did you not just answer a

woman's call? Maybe other women will call you soon too. You're so busy, so I should just leave you

alone."

Then she pushed Jackson away again, opened the door, visible only in a faint light, and walked out.

Jackson stood there, shocked and disappointed. He thought to himself, 'Even though She is right in

front of me, why can't I get her back? It appears as though she is close to me, but in reality, she is very

far away from me.'

Cherry went back to the original room, where Selina and Derek were talking about something and

laughing. When Selina saw Cherry, she smiled and exclaimed, "You're back!"

But when she looked behind Cherry and noticed that Jackson had not followed her, she was confused

and asked, "Where is Jackson? Wasn't he with you?"

"I don't know." Cherry responded faintly. She then lowered her head, began to eat and ignored the

other two people.

Selina looked at Derek in surprise, who shook his head to show that he had no idea what was going

on.

Before long, the door opened once again and Jackson walked in.

Derek saw that Jackson's face looked just the same icy-cold as before, so he asked curiously,

"Jackson, where did you go?"

"Do I have to report to you about where I went?" Jackson sat down and looked straight at Derek.

Derek quickly shook his head and said, "No! No! I was just wondering... just wondering."

Selina noticed a strange chemistry between Jackson and Cherry, so she guessed that they may have

just had an argument. After all, she knew exactly what a temper Jackson had.

She looked at Jackson and said, "Jackson, can you just control your bad temper? My sister-in-law is

here! Can't you just be polite?"

Jackson said nothing and sat still.

Selina felt that she had been right. Because Jackson didn't argue with her, which meant that what she

had said was right.

Selina suddenly pulled at Cherry's hands and gently said, "Cherry, don't mind Jackson. He is a person

of nervous disposition. You know his temper very well. He is always mean to everyone. So don't take it

personally."

Cherry looked at Selina and thought it would be inappropriate to argue with her. So she just smiled and

said, "Let's just finish our meals. I want to go home early."

Cherry had not really answered Selina's question directly but changed the topic instead. So Selina

lightly said, "Oh." Then she lowered her head and continued with her dinner.

After dinner, the four of them went to the parking lot together. Selina suddenly recalled something, so

she went to Derek's side and tugged at his clothes.

Derek looked at Selina's face and knew that she must have something to tell him, but he could not

guess what it was.

Selina looked at her silly brother with a completely disappointed expression. She could not expect him

to do anything.

She took his arm and said to Jackson and Cherry, "Jackson, it just hit me that I need to buy something,

so I want my brother to accompany me. Could you drive Cherry home, please?"
