Chapter 297 Love Is With A Cost (Part Two)
But Jackson angrily stared at her and said, "You know I hate Mond and Stephen, so why do you remain
on their side?"
Sally immediately became frightened when she saw the terrifying look in Jackson''s eyes.
She slowly distanced herself from Jackson and kept herself back from him.
"Jackson, please forgive me! I didn''t do stay for no reason." Sally pleaded.
"Sure, you have your reasons. Mond has been giving you money all these years! Money that is actually
Grandpa''s money! Of course, you would stay with him for the money!" Jackson spat out angrily.
When Sally heard his words, her eyes became as big as saucers. She knew she couldn''t conceal
anything from Jackson. He knew everything.
"You...you already knew all of that?" Asked Sally.
But Jackson didn''t answer.
She continued, "Mond''s been with me for many years, ever since I left the residentialpound..."
When Sally saw Jackson look away, she knew he understood what she was about to say, even though
she hadn''t finished telling him.
Sally suddenly stepped closer to Jackson again. She pulled his arm and quickly said, "Jackson, don''t
worry, we haven''t leaked any of the things that happened back then. I''ll never say anything, and
Stephen won''t either."
Jackson nced down at Sally thinking, ''The one that I worry about is Mond, and the person that I care
about is Cherry. If Cherry never knows about those things, then, even if everyone else in this world
knows about them, I won''t care...''
When Cherry and Selina came out of the washroom and headed back, Cherry looked at the crowds of
people and felt troubled.
"Selina, let''s find a quieter ce for a while. I don''t want to see those people." Cherry suggested.
"Okay." Replied Selina, not wanting to go back either. She was as disgusted as Cherry when she
thought of Sally.
"What about...that ce? Nobody would be there..." Selina suggested as she pointed to a corner at the
end of a corridor.
"Alright." Agreed Cherry, nodding her head.
They walked in that direction, but suddenly stopped in their tracks.
Cherry thought the scene in front of her was too familiar to her. There was no doubt, the man was her
husband, Jackson, and the woman at his side was Sally, clinging to him as she had done some
moments before.
When Selina saw Sally was pulling at Jackson''s arm, and they were quarreling about something, she
was angry, and thought, ''She is such a shameless bitch!''
Then she looked over at Cherry standing next to her, who was just standing still and calmly observing
them. She realized Cherry was unable to react, too overwhelmed with grief and in shock. ''She must be
devastated!'' Selina thought, ''Seeing her husband standing in a dark corner with another woman! Even
without any intimate overtures, it''s too much for her.''
She thought a moment, and suddenly shouted loudly in the direction of the corner, "Hey, Jackson!"
Jackson and Sally turned and looked at Selina when they heard her voice.
Then Jackson noticed Cherry standing there quietly. He shoved Sally away from him, and wondered,
''How long has she been standing there? She''s angry. I know her well enough, and I know she must be
angry now!''
When Cherry heard Selina call out, she snapped out of her trance. Then she lowered her head, and
said to Selina, "I''ve got to go."
She immediately turned away from the scene and walked quickly away.
Selina didn''t prevent her from leaving, but stared at Sally furiously saying loudly, "Such a shameless
bitch!"
When she finished her words, she left too.
When Jackson saw Cherry walk away, he immediately moved to chase after her, but Sally caught him
by the arm and pulled him back toward her.
"Jackson, don''t leave me alone! Don''t run after her!" Sally begged him in a whining tone.
"Let go of me, right now! She''s my wife!" Jackson snapped as he shook himself free of Sally''s firm grip
and immediately ran off in the direction Cherry and Selina disappeared.
Sally watched as Jackson ran away, and she copsed on the ground, heavy in thought, ''He left me
alone again, all because of Cherry, because of that woman! Cherry, you stole my most precious

treasure from me. How can you think for a moment that I will let you go easily?''
As Selina neared Cherry, Jackson overtook her and strode passed towards Cherry. She watched
Jackson''s figure and thought, ''Their conflict should be resolved between the two of them. Just leave
them alone now.'' So she stood still as she watched Jackson chase after Cherry.
"Wait for me!" Shouted Jackson when he was a few steps behind Cherry, and he suddenly quickened
his pace and reached out to catch Cherry by her arm.
Cherry felt herself being pulled back by him and into his arms.
"Let go of me! Let me go, immediately!" Cherry shouted angrily at him.
"Let me exin! It''s not what you think." Jackson pleaded as he thought, ''Her every move directs all of
my emotions!''
"No! I won''t! I won''t listen to you!" Cherry told him as she put her hands over her ears. She didn''t want
to hear what Jackson had to say anymore, because his rtionship with Sally was nothing new to her.
She didn''t even know how long it had been on! Should she include only the past five years, or the
many many years before that? Sally had been there with him all those years before she appeared in
Jackson''s world. The thought of that, made her feel insecure, like she was always a loser.
But Jackson held her tightly by her arms and wouldn''t let her go. He suppressed his emotions softly
telling her, "Baby, please calm down. Please, listen to me."
"No! No, I won''t!" Cherry shouted shaking her head.
She wouldn''t stop struggling against Jackson in his arms, so he dragged her away, towards another
building nearby.
He half-dragged Cherry up to the third floor of the building, to a private room. He pulled her inside and
closed the door behind them.
