Chapter 456 Go Back Home At An Early Hour (Part Three)
''That man might not have met Jackson yet, '' Jonsonmented in his mind. Nobody could tell whether
that man will show respect for Jackson or not.''
Upon returning to his home, Eric sat on the sofa, silent with anger.
Bobby stood, studying Eric''s expression. "Boss, what did Jackson say?"
Eric exploded, yelling, "I have never been pissed off like that before! How dare that damned man
lecture me in front of Jonson! He would be dead by my hand if he were not the head of the Chu
Family!"
A thoughtful expression crossed Bobby''s face, causing a crease in his eyebrows. "Boss, please don''t
be so upset. I have known Jackson for many years. He should not be underestimated. He and the Chu
Family indeed have great influence and power in this city."
"s, " Eric sighed helplessly, leaning back against his sofa. "When Andrew was my boss, I was
somewhat convinced. He had done me a great favor, he was of noble character and high prestige. But
now, my boss has be this... this man who is even younger than me! How can I ept this
willingly?"
"But, he isn''t some man. He is Jackson, " Bobby argued. He had always held Jackson in great esteem.
He really admired Jackson''s ability to deal with issues, even though his true boss was Eric.
"So what? "Now that Andrew is dead, I''ll just revolt against Jackson, " Eric stated, more casually than
one should.
Bobby''s eyes widened in shock. "Boss!" he eximed. "Please don''t say things like that. If Jackson
finds out, you''re sure to be in trouble. Don''t forget, Jackson is powerful by himself, and what''s more: he
was also the boss of Jonson. If they join forces, there''s little chance for us to win."
Bobby''s interjection made Eric stop and think. He had to admit, he likely wasn''t powerful enough to
battle Jackson.
Something dawned on him all of a sudden. "Bobby!" he cried.
"Yes, boss. What''s up?" replied Bobby.
"That woman Jackson protected that year, is she still in the city?" Eric asked.
"Do you mean Sally? "She''s still here, in the city, yes boss, " Bobby responded.
Eric began to smirk evilly, his eyes shing with ns. "That''s good. Even if I do nothing, Jackson
might be in trouble anyway. He is a married man now. How could Sally possibly tolerate not being the
one in his arms instead of his wife? "They loved each other so much that year. I don''t believe love like
that vanishes easily."
Bobby blinked, remaining silent, but he could tell what Eric was thinking.
"Let''s y it by ear. Wait and see. Jackson will have a lot to deal with soon." Eric nodded as he spoke.
Jackson parked his car at the H King Group and entered the building, looking for his wife.
Coincidentally, Wilson left his office to find Cherry as well. Seeing Jackson in the H King Group offices
was unexpected.
"Jackson, what are you doing here? Are you looking for Cherry?" Wilson asked.
"Yes, " Jackson replied, walking up to Wilson. "I''m here to see her."

"What a coincidence, I was on my way to meet her too. Let''s go together." Wilson smiled warmly. The
two men walked in step to Cherry''s office.
"Come in, please, " Cherry called as she heard knocking on her door. She was astounded to see her
brother and husband walk in together.
"Why are you two here together?" Cherry asked, her voice a little higher than usual.
Her brother''s smile grew a bit. "I met Jackson in the corridor."
She remembered that today was Jackson''s meeting with Eric and Jonson. He had to havee to talk
to her about it.
Despite Wilson''s presence, Cherry walked up to Jackson, snuggling into Jackson''s arms and cooed, "Is
everything all right?"
Jackson beamed at her. "Yes, don''t worry. I''m just here to see you."
"Why don''t we go home first?" Taking a close look at Jackson''s face, his smile didn''t reach his eyes,
which had a worried glint in them.
"Wilson, I''m going to head home with Jackson. There''s not much work left to do today, and I will deal
with it tomorrow." She turned to her brother.
Wilson nodded and said, "Okay, just go ahead. I''ll help you with the remaining tasks."
"Thank you, Wilson, " Cherry replied pleasantly.
"All right, all right. It''s rare that Jacksones to see you in thepany. Just leave now. If there''s
anything I can help with, do not hesitate to call me, " replied Wilson.
Cherry shook her head with a smile. "Okay, we''ll be going now." She and Jackson walked out of her
office together.
As the elevator doors closed with them inside, Cherry slipped her hand in Jackson''s. "Are you okay?"
she asked gently.
"Yes, I''m fine, " Jackson replied lightly. He needed Cherry with him so he could calm down.
"Don''t think too much, " Cherryforted him. She could tell he wasn''t in a good mood, and felt he
needed her. "No matter what happens, I''ll always be there for you."
Eager to return to their cozy home, Jackson squeezed her hand. "Let''s go home now."
Cherry nodded and replied, "Okay!"
Walking together out of the H King Group building, Jackson drove the two of them back home.
As they arrived home, they saw Lily and Bill about to leave.
"Mr. Jackson, Mrs. Cherry, why are you back home at such an early hour?" Lily asked, a little surprised.
Normally they should be both busy with their work at this hour. Lily wondered possibilities while she
waited for their response.
"There wasn''t much left to do at our works today, so we decided toe home earlier, " Cherry
exined. "Where are you off to with Bill?"
"The supermarket, " Lily rified. "We require some vegetables, and some daily necessities like
detergents. We''ll be finished shopping soon before Joe finishes school and we can pick him up on the
way home."
Nodding in acknowledgement, Cherry put on a small smile. "Well, okay then. Drive carefully. Come
back soon after you pick up Joe."
"Yes, Mrs. Cherry, " Bill agreed. "Have a good rest with Mr. Jackson and we will be backter."
Cherry waved as they left.
Watching the two drive away, Cherry turned to her husband and directed him inside. "Come on, " she
said to him quietly. "Let''s go into the house."
