Chapter 522 Danger! Watch Out! (Part Two)


    Everybody heard Joe''s request.


    "You want them now?" Jean asked. It didn''t matter though if he wanted to eat them now orter, she


    was going to buy the haws because Joe requested it.


    Cherry knew Jean would buy the haws for Joe because she loved Joe.


    Cherry ced a hand on Jean''s arm. "It''s okay, Jean. I''ll go buy some with Joe."


    "Are you sure? It''s no trouble for me," Jean told Cherry. She really didn''t want Cherry to walk across


    the busy road. It was only a short distance but it could still be dangerous, especially since there wasn''t


    any sidewalk.


    Cherry shook her head," It''s okay. I''ll take Joe with me." She turned to Jackson and said," I''m going


    across the street to buy haws for Joe. Talk to Mond, okay?"


    Jackson was worried but didn''t dare defy Cherry''s request. He nodded.


    "It''s just across the road, I''ll be fine." Cherry took Joe''s hand to take him to the shop. "Be careful," Jean


    shouted as they crossed the road.

    Mond hesitated but forced himself to talk to Jackson. "Did you arrange this dinner so we can talk?"


    Jackson shook his head. "I didn''t know about this until Cherry told me." He nodded his head towards


    Cherry. "She arranged it all by herself."


    "You mean, you didn''t tell her our past?" Mond asked with shock in his voice. He thought Cherry knew


    about him and Jackson. But apparently, she didn''t.


    Jackson shook his head.


    Jackson turned to Mond," Cherry doesn''t know about our past. But she''s right. And -"


    Mond cut in and broke his sentence iplete," No, Jackson! You''re not my brother. You''ve never


    acted like my big brother. What you want is impossible!"


    "I''m not expecting us to be instant brothers. But maybe we can try to get to know each other, and


    end this fight between us. What do you think?" Jackson proposed. He didn''t want Mond to hate him


    anymore. He just wanted Mond to be happy.


    Mond didn''t know what to say.


    Jackson continued. "Mond, please don''t hate Grandpa. He didn''t have any choice that time. You know


    the Chu family''s reputation in this city. If people found out, we would be destroyed. Grandpa needed to


    do what was right for the family. He had no other choice, he had to do it."


    "He had to do it? Did you even know what I thought?" replied Mond. He breathed out hot air from his


    nose, and his eyes red at Jackson.


    Standing not far away from them, Jean felt the tension that emanated from Mond and decided to step


    away.


    She made sure to give them enough distance so she was near but far enough not to hear them.


    While she waited for her family, Jean''s eyes wandered around and watched the cars pass by.


    Suddenly, a familiar car parked not far from where they stood. Even though the street lights might not


    be very bright, she knew it was Sally''s car.


    She walked closer to confirm her suspicions. And when she saw the license te, she knew she was


    right.


    Jean checked the driver''s seat and found Sally inside the car.


    Sally had her eyes on something else. Jean followed Sally''s gaze and found it was on Cherry and Joe,


    who were about to cross the street.


    Jean wondered why Sally would park her car and just watch Cherry and Joe. A thought popped into her


    head.


    Suddenly, a bad feeling came to Jean. Sally had always hated and envied Cherry. She was still in love


    with Jackson and she could not stand that he was with Cherry. Sally might be seeking revenge on her


    now.


    ''Oh shit! I need to warn Cherry!'' Jean thought to herself. She double backed and ran towards her sister.


    When she found Cherry, she was already crossing the street, Joe''s hand in hers. Joe had the


    sugarcoated haws in his other hand and was happily munching away with it.


    Jean wanted to run towards and protect them, but there were so many cars, and she couldn''t cross.


    "Cherry!" Jean shouted. "Cherry!" Cherry and Joe were almost halfway across the street and Sally


    could run them over in seconds.


    "Cherry!" Jean shouted again. But the noise of the passing cars drowned out her voice and Cherry


    didn''t hear her at all.


    A blinding light appeared from Jean''s side and she knew Sally had started her car.


    Jean shouted Cherry''s name again to warn her but it was drowned out by a loud honking car.


    Jean was in near panic at this time. Cherry was her little sister, and Joe was her favorite nephew. She


    had to do something!


    She instinctively ran towards Cherry and Joe," Cherry! Watch out!"


    Jean looked back and discovered Sally had made her way towards Cherry in her car.


    Jackson and Mond both looked up when they heard the sound of a car speeding on the road. Mond''s


    eyes widened when he discovered Sally''s familiar car.


    Jackson''s eyes instinctively went to Cherry and Joe, and he noticed Jean running frantically towards


    them.


    A blinding light caught the side of Cherry''s eyes.


    She stopped and shielded her eyes from it with her free hand. She held Joe closer to her.


    "Cherry! Watch out!"


    Cherry finally heard Jean, who was running towards her. Before she could answer, Jean pushed her


    and Joe aside, and they fell hard down on the ground.


    A loud crash exploded followed by total silence.


    Mond and Jackson ran towards them, but she couldn''t hear them.


    Cherryy on the ground, her arms wrapping around Joe. What happened?


    Before Cherry could even begin to recover, Jackson was at their side. Jackson checked for injuries on


    both Cherry and Joe. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?"


    Jackson stammered his words, still shocked at what had just happened. He looked for wounds or blood


    on Cherry and Joe. He held Joe''s face in his hands and asked," Are you okay? Are you hurt?"


    "I''m okay, Daddy, I''m not hurt. Mommy protected me," Joe answered Jackson.


    Cherry held on tightly to Joe, her eyes nk, her lips silent.


    "Cherry? Honey?" Jackson shook Cherry gently to regain her consciousness.


    Cherry''s gaze stayed in front, her mind nk.


    Mond went straight to the side of the road, towards Jean, whoy in a pool of blood. His jaw hung


    open, unable to approach Jean.


    He couldn''t believe what just happened. He stared at Jean, refusing to understand.


    Cherry''s eyes settled on a shocked Mond and then on Jean''s lifeless body on the ground. Cherry


    scrambled to remember what happened. She gasped when she remembered hearing Jean''s frantic


    voice, and the sound of that car, and how Jean pushed her and Joe away.


    "Jean!" Cherry broke out of Jackson''s arms and crawled towards her sister.


    Mond broke out of his shock and found Cherry crawl towards Jean. He stopped Cherry from reaching


    Jean.


    "Jean, oh, Jean," Cherry cried. She tried to move closer but Mond held her back.
