Chapter 178 Why Did She Run Away From You (Part Two)


    All of Joe''s words apparently hurt Jackson''s feelings, and his heart wrenched. What was a warm family


    like? He had always been alone for the past five years, and he had no idea of his son''s existence, who


    was now standing in front of him. If he had known about this, how could he have let his wife and son


    stay outside for so many years? He should have imprisoned his wife and should have given his son a


    warm home.


    Selina just watched Jackson and remained silent. She couldn''t tell what Jackson was thinking about


    just by judging his expression. She thought that maybe he was also felt a little distressed because of


    what was happening.


    Jackson looked at Joe, and seriously asked him, "What''s your name?" He had heard already that


    Selina had called him Joe, but he still wanted to be sure that he heard his name right.


    "My name is Joe, Joe Shen, " he said, and then added, "Please call me by my full name, because only


    those who have a close rtionship with me can call me by my first name."


    Selina thought, ''This little guy is so overbearing! His personality is exactly as his father''s who is now


    sitting opposite to him.''


    ''Joe?'' When Jackson heard his name, he suddenly remembered the moments he had with Cherry on


    the beach. At that time, Cherry had told him that if they would have a child in the future, they should call


    him Joe. Jackson thought to himself, ''I can''t be more stupid. Why didn''t I realize that the child already


    existed?"


    "You have taken your mother''s family name?" asked Jackson.


    "Of course. Who else''s family name should I take? My father''s? I don''t even know who he is!" Joe


    teased him, although he knew that Jackson was his father.


    Joe then just stared at Jackson and deliberately provoked him. He was curious to hear what his father


    would answer him.


    Selina was almost frantic, and couldn''t help but say to him, "Joe, your family name should be Chu. Your


    name is Joe Chu."


    "No, " said Joe defiantly, "I don''t even know who my Daddy is! Why do I have to take his family name?"


    "Do you think you''ll take Cherry''s family name all of your life?" suddenly roared Jackson, as he red


    at Joe.


    Joe was then scared by Jackson, and he kept silent and stared at him fearfully.


    When Selina noticed Joe''s fear, she quickly walked up to him and held him in her arms. "Why did you


    speak so loudly?" said Selina to Jackson in a disapproving manner. "Look, you''ve scared him."


    Jackson looked at his son and didn''t know how to describe his own feelings. Of course, he was happy,


    happy that he already had a child with Cherry, and that his child was already big, but in the same time


    he was angry, angry that Cherry had hid him from him for five whole years, and that he had failed to


    see his son''s birth, first steps, or hear his first words. Joe''s attitude towards him also upset him very


    much.


    When Selina saw that Jackson was silent, she quickly said to Joe in her arms, "Don''t be afraid, shh,


    don''t be afraid, Joe. Auntie is here with you, you don''t need to be afraid of anything..."


    Joe then suddenly looked up at Selina and gently said, "Auntie, when will my Mommye back? I


    miss her very much."


    Joe didn''t call Selina sister any longer. He had already guessed that Selina and his Daddy must know


    each other, and that the rtionship between them was very close. It seemed to him like they were


    sister and brother.


    "Don''t worry, she''ll be back in a minute, " quickly said Selina.


    Joe then kept silent and didn''t say anything more, and just quietly stayed still in Selina''s arms.


    Jackson suddenly became furious. He stood up, walked straight to Selina and pulled Joe out of her


    arms. As he red at him, he asked, "Don''t you think that the two of us almost look the same?"


    Jackson could no longer hold back his fury, because his own son refused to admit that he was his


    father. What''s worse, his son didn''t even give him the chance to speak, and avoided his questions


    every time.


    Joe was scared by Jackson''s hysterical behavior, but he forced himself to calm down and to be


    fearless in front of him. He gazed into Jackson''s eyes, and said, "Does it matter that we look alike?"


    "Does it matter?" cried Jackson even more infuriated. "I''m Cherry''s husband and your father! Don''t you


    think that it matters!"


    "You''re my mother''s husband and my father? Then why did I only have Mommy around me ever since I


    was born? What about you? Where were you all these years?"


    "I wasn''t there because your mom ran away from me!" Jackson''s face had be dark and cold, and


    his son''s questions almost drove him mad with anger.

    Joe wasn''t persuaded by him at all, and instead looked straight into Jackson''s eyes again, and asked,


    "Then why did my Mommy run away from you?"


    As soon as he asked this question, Selina, who was standing next to him, was greatly shocked. She


    had never met a child who could think so logically and reasonably at his young age.


    "You…" Jackson was then too angry to even speak aplete sentence. He raised his hand and was


    just about to smack Joe.


    But then the elevator''s bell rang, and everyone involuntarily looked to see who it was.
