Chapter 367 My Goal Is Not Her (Part Two)

She said, "I don't want to talk to you anymore. I'll go and sleep with Joe now, and I think you should

also go to bed early." She believed that if they continued to talk they would end up arguing with each

other and fighting. She knew what kind of person Jackson was, and to avoid quarrelling with him, she

had to find an excuse to sleep with Joe tonight, to let Jackson clam down by himself. It was better to

wait for his anger to pass and to talk again with each other a few days later.

She then took her clothes and intended to leave the room.

When Jackson saw that she was going to leave, he tightly seized her arm and directly threw her on the

bed.

Cherry fell onto the bed, but before she could figure out what had happened, Jackson had already

moved close to her.

"What're you doing?" asked Cherry. She was suddenly alert, clutching her clothes tightly to her chest

and looking into his eyes.

Jackson gradually approached her. He lifted her chin with his hand, and ordered her, "Cherry Shen,

always keep in mind that you are mine! You're my wife!"

After she heard his demand, she answered, "I always keep that in mind. Jackson, I can assure you that

I've never cheated on you since we got married, so your warning is useless! You don't need to tell me

this! All you need to do is to mind your own business!"

"I'm minding my own business right now!" said Jackson arrogantly. He was even more aroused to fight

with her whenever she resisted him.

Cherry retorted, "I don't need you to take care of me!" She thought that Jackson had gone mad for the

moment.

"You're my woman, so of course that I have to take care of you!" Jackson was very close to Cherry, and

as he stared at her, she could feel his warm breath blowing against her cheeks.

"Then why did you meet with another woman? You knew that I hated Sally, and that if you met with her

I would certainly be angry. Why did you meet her anyway?" asked Cherry, irate.

Looking at Cherry and seeing how distressed she was, Jackson believed that she must care about him

very much, and he felt very happy because of that.

"Baby, please, I'm so sorry! I'll never see her again!" promised Jackson. He thought to himself, 'Only I'm

to blame for what happened today. Seeing Sally was a mistake, and so was not telling Cherry Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

immediately. Because she and Joe were in the amusement park at that time, I thought that there was

no need to tell her about this; oh, I would have never expected that she would show up there and see

me with Sally.'

At that moment, Cherry was the one who was in a stronger position, so she pushed Jackson away from

her and got out of the bed. After she briefly fixed her dress, she said, "We'll talk about this after you

show me how you keep your promise."

She then hastily left the bedroom.

Jackson saw in how much of a hurry she was. He wanted to run after her, but after he gave it a second

thought, he eventually gave up on this idea. It was obvious that Cherry had already made the decision

to sleep with their son tonight, so he decided to let her do what she wanted.

Inside his villa, Mond was standing in front of the window with a drink in his hand, looking at the night

scenery outside, but the beautiful view didn't dispel for a moment his anger and hatred that boiled

inside of him.

He thought of what had happened earlier in the afternoon in the coffee shop, and remembered Cherry's

face. He thought to himself, 'Cherry is so special and beautiful that I won't allow anyone to ever hurt

her, but I'm still happy with what I achieved today. Jackson was obviously angry, which was exactly how

I wanted him to be. I want Jackson to be furious, I want him to be mad, and I want him to lose

everything, which is my ultimate goal! If possible, I also want to kill both Andrew and Jackson, as

retribution for my sadness all these years. Why do they live in happiness and innocence while I suffer

from terror everyday. Andrew and Jackson should be punished for what they've done; yes, they should

go to hell!'

While Mond was still immersed in his own thoughts, a knock on the door was suddenly heard.

Mond managed to calm himself down, and said, "Come in."

Jean then opened the door and slowly walked to Mond's side.

"Sally is downstairs and waiting for you." She then added, "It seems that she's in a bad mood."

"If she were in a good mood, then there would be something definitely wrong with her, " said Mond, as

he stretched his hand to give his glass to Jean.

She hastily took the glass from him and then stared at him.

Mond didn't even glance at her, and instead directly walked out the door and went downstairs to see

Sally.

The moment Sally saw Mond come downstairs, she quickly went to him, and asked, "Mond, why did

you tell Cherry that I was with Jackson? Why did you tell her that we were together in the cafe?"

Mond walked into the living room and completely ignored her question. He then leisurely sat down on

the sofa.

He then said, "Are you stupid? Don't you know the reason already?" But in reality he still wasn't sure

whether Sally knew of his implied meaning.

Sally couldn't control her emotions any longer, and as she stared at Mond, she shouted, "If you love

Cherry, you could just date her and let me take care of Jackson! Isn't that be perfect?"

But Mond just peered at her, and slowly said, "Sallly, do you really think that I aim at

Cherry?"
