Chapter 281 Strolling Under The Starry Sky (Part One)
Cherry's phone rang while she was on her way back to the JS Group.
Cherry took out the phone and saw that the number was unknown. She hesitated for a moment and
debated with herself what to do, but she eventually decided to answer it.
"Hello, this is Cherry speaking!"
"Cherry, it's me!"
When Cherry immediately recognized her father's voice, she cried in the phone surprised, "Daddy!"
"Cherry, you got a minute? I want to see you right now, " said Harrison.
Cherry thought for a moment while she was driving, and then replied, "I do. Where are you now?
Where do you want us to meet?"
"How about the teahouse? I'll text the address to you, " replied Harrison.
"Alright."
After she hung up, Cherry checked the time on her phone. If she went back to the JS Group before she
met Harrison, then she'll be running late, so she decided that it would be better to drive and meet
Harrison first.
Cherry arrived at the teahouse according to the address sent to her by Harrison.
After Cherry walked inside, she saw that Harrison was sitting in a corner and she walked towards him.
"Cherry, you're here!" said Harrison.
"Yes!" said Cherry, as she sat opposite to Harrison.
The waiter then served two cups of tea to them.
Cherry took a sip of tea, and as she looked at Harrison, asked, "Dad, why did you call me? Is there
something wrong?"
"Well, nothing important, it's just that I haven't seen you for such a long time and I happened to have
some free time today. I wanted to have a small talk with you, so I called you out, " replied Harrison.
Cherry then gave Harrison a quick nod of acknowledgement, and thought that she also had the
opportunity to ask him some questions.
"Dad, how are you these days? Are you okay?" asked Cherry with concern.
Harrison nodded to her, and said, "I'm fine. I opened a convenience store with the money you gave me
last time, and it's actually doing okay."
"That's great! Dad, do you have any hardships?" asked Cherry. She was still worried about Harrison,
and she had to be convinced that he was doing fine to feel at ease, because he was, after all, her
biological father.
"Well, everything is going well. Don't worry about me, " replied Harrison, and then asked, "Cherry, I
heard that you moved back to the residential compound and now live with Andrew. Is that true?"
"How did you know about that?" asked Cherry, who was confused and wondered who had told him
about this.
"A friend from the business circle told me. You know how much influence Jackson has, and there are
many people that have their eyes fixed on him. My friend heard the news and told me about it when I
met with him, " answered Harrison.
"Alright, " replied Cherry. She understood that gossip was a common thing.
She continued to say, "I've been living in the residential compound for some time now, yes."
"What about Andrew? Is he good to you? Has he done anything embarrassing to you?" asked
Harrison, and as he looked at Cherry, he worried that his daughter would be somehow wronged or
persecuted in the Chu Family.
"No! He's very kind to me and Joe, he even gave us two expensive pendants as gifts, " said Cherry.
Andrew's attitude towards her had always been clear and appreciated in her heart, and there weren't
any problems at all. On the contrary, he cared very much about her, and also loved her son very much.
"Oh, that's good, that's good, " said Harrison with his head lowered.
Cherry thought that there was another meaning in her Dad's words, and asked, "Dad, do you want to
tell me something?"
Harrison knew that Cherry had already understood his thoughts, and after he hesitated for a second,
he said, "Cherry, I always considered that Andrew was a very unpredictable person, so you need to be
careful when living in the Chu Family."
Harrison spoke his mind. Cherry was the most important person to him at the present moment, and he
worried very much about her and hoped that she could live a happy and fulfilling life.
Cherry was somewhat surprised, and as she looked at Harrison, she asked, "Dad, do you know
something?"
Cherry was getting more and more curious about the Chu Family and Jackson, because she had never
gotten the chance to get to know them too well. All the people around her seemed to know something
about them, and even her father thought that there was something up with Andrew, but she didn't have
a clue about anything about them.
Harrison looked at Cherry and didn't know where to start. Years ago, when he still had the ability to run
his company, he had intended to investigate those things by himself. He had never thought about
telling her, but now things were different, and he was very worried about his daughter.
He then said, "Cherry, I had some interactions with Andrew in the past, and I heard some stories from
my friends that Andrew was a vicious person, and that the Chu Family was a perilous place to be in.
You must be careful!"
Harrison's words disappointed Cherry a little, because she hadn't gotten the information that she
actually wanted to know. She had already found out about some of Jackson's affairs, but she didn't
know any of their details; as for Andrew, who had so much power and high status, how could he be an
innocent person? He had to be stained, more or less.
"Dad, can you tell me more about it? Did he do anything or hurt anybody at that time?" That was what This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
she really wanted to know, thought Cherry, and if she knew what Andrew had done, she then might
have a chance to know what Jackson had also done. She wanted to know everything about her
husband.
Harrison thought for some time, and then said, "I'm not really sure about what he's done, but there
should be a few people who've been hurt by him in the past. I don't know any of the details, and
although the Shen Group used to be quite respected in this city, there was no connection between it
and the Chu Family. The Chu Family's social circle is only related to the elite people of the city, who
aren't willing to interact with the middle class."
Cherry thought about her Dad's words and kept silent. She more or less knew about the Chu Family's
social circle, and because they were associated exclusively with the upper class, many people didn't
have the chance to get involved with them.
Cherry then suddenly looked at Harrison, and asked, "Dad, do you know what happened in that year? I
heard that something happened when Jackson was a child, something related to the An Family and the
He Family in the residential compound."
