Chapter 403 It Relates To You (Part One)

"What?" Derek looked at Jackson with great surprise.

"Actually, the problem might have started right at the beginning. Do you still remember that time he left?

My Grandpa never showed any concern for him because he never asked for the Butler's whereabouts.

It was possible that my Grandpa knew what the Butler was doing at that time but didn't tell anyone

about it, " Jackson analyzed.

"This is all Mond's fault. Nothing would have happened to Grandpa Andrew if Mond didn't come to him

that day. Then, there wouldn't be so much confusion for us too! How can we solve this problem now?",

Derek said angrily as he stood up all of a sudden.

Jackson didn't say anything. But in his mind, he asked himself, "Do I really hate Mond from the bottom

of my heart?" He thought about that for a while. He believed that he didn't hate Mond. Even though he

believed this, he couldn't help but blame Mond for what happened to his Grandpa and the current

situation Mond caused. However, his anger towards Mond had diminished as compared to when it first Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

started.

"Please remember, Derek, only Cherry, you and I know about this. You can't let anyone else know this

especially Bobby. This is because Eric will not stand by idly if he hears the news, " said Jackson as he

changed the topic of their talking.

"Okay, I understand. Don't worry about it, " Derek assured. "But Jackson, what is our next step?" he

added.

Meanwhile, Cherry was busy with her work at the office. She was buried in a pile of paperwork which

she needed to read over.

Suddenly, Wilson appeared.

"Cherry, " Wilson called her name as he walked up to her.

As soon as she heard that voice, Cherry dropped what she was doing and found her Brother next to

her. "Brother, you're here, " Cherry said with a smile.

"You need to rest. Don't overwork yourself Cherry, " Wilson said with concern.

"It's okay, I'm not tired, " replied Cherry. "Brother, why did you come to see me?"

At this point, Wilson sat across Cherry. He was staring at Cherry when his expression suddenly turned

serious. "Cherry, there is something I want to ask you, " said Wilson.

"Well, don't wait any longer Brother, just ask me the question, " Cherry nodded.

"I heard from my friends that some people gave special interest to Jackson after Mr. Andrew passed

away, and Jackson, " Wilson looked at Cherry, and continued what he was saying, "He probably

planned to take over the powerful position that Mr. Andrew left."

Apparently, Cherry wasn't surprised at all with what Wilson just said. It was because that fact was very

obvious to everyone now. The old master of the Chu family had passed away. After Mr. Andrew,

Jackson was the only person who had the right of inheritance. This was very evident and reasonable.

"Brother, " said Cherry seriously, "there will always be circumstances that we cannot avoid. Jackson is

not in the army anymore. I'm not sure what he plans to do next. But I don't want to interfere with his

own decisions and I intend to respect whatever he's going to do. Because I believe that he will not just

act without any reason. So, I will stay by his side no matter what happens."

However, Cherry didn't say a thing about the token to Wilson. She promised Jackson that she would

never tell anyone the secret. And she intended to keep this promise as she knew that so many people

would be involved if the secret about the token were revealed to the public. Furthermore, The more

people got involved, the more trouble it would bring.

After giving it a thought, Wilson agreed and said, "You are right. I too believe that Jackson is not a

person who will do anything without any reason at all. Also, I'm not worried since he is more than

capable of handling it well."

After saying those words, Wilson looked at Cherry again and asked. "Cherry, did Jackson looked

stressed these days?"

Hearing that question, Cherry looked into Wilson's eyes and nodded, saying, "Yes, it is obvious that he

needs to deal with many things."

"It must have been very hard for him. Mr. Andrews left such big shoes to fill. Moreover, with the Butler

gone, things must have been more complicated as it already was, " said Wilson, signed.

"Brother, how did you know that the Butler was missing?" Cherry asked hastily.

"Well, Stephen told me so. he said he was looking for the Butler too, " said Wilson naturally.

"Stephen is looking for the Butler too?" Surprised by this, Cherry wondered, "Is the Butler that

important?" Although she knew that Jackson was looking for the Butler, she didn't expect that Stephen

would look for him too.

"Yes, maybe he is also interest about Mr. Andrew." Wilson suggested. He already knew about the

conflict between Jackson, Stephen and that man called Mond, so he wasn't surprised to hear that

Stephen was looking for the Butler.

After hearing what Wilson said, Cherry didn't utter a single word.

Then, Wilson saw that Cherry was lost in her own thoughts. Because of this, he couldn't help but ask

"Cherry, tell me honestly, you and Joe wouldn't be involved in this, right?"

Hearing that, Cherry forced a smile as she said to him "Don't worry, Brother, I promise that nothing bad

will happen to Joe and me." Now that Jackson was willing to tell her something, she was assured that

Jackson wouldn't let anything happen to her and Joe.

"That's reassuring to hear. I am just really worried about you and Joe." responded Wilson.

Hearing that, Cherry reassured her Brother and said, "Brother, it's okay, don't worry too much." After

saying that, she almost forgot about to say something and then she said hurriedly, "By the way, Brother,

please don't tell anything about the Chu Family to my Mother or my Uncle. Knowing them, they will not

stop worrying if they hear about that."

Wilson agreed, "I understand, I won't tell them anything. Although my Aunt won't know of this easily, my

Father is a different story. He can get a whiff of the news as he has so many business friends. It would

be surprising if he doesn't at least hear anything about the news that everyone is talking about now."

Hearing what Wilson had said, Cherry agreed and said: "There really is no way we can stop these

things from happening."

Because of that, Wilson assured Cherry and said, "Don't worry Cherry. I will definitely tell my Father to

keep this from my Aunt when I have the time. I understand what worries you as I worry about it too."

"Thank you so much, Brother." said Cherry with a cheerful voice. She felt so relieved that her Brother

was always there for her and knew just what she needed without even saying it.

This made Wilson genuinely smile saying, "That's so silly Cherry, we're siblings. That's what we ought

to do. You can continue your work; I will leave you with it."

"Okay, see you brother!"

As Wilson was leaving, Cherry continued her gaze in him until he was really out. She sat on her chair,

not only worried about Jackson's current situation, but also tried to figure out ways to deal with the

problems Jackson was facing. She was worried sick as all she could think about was Jackson.

Then, out of nowhere, Cherry's phone rang. She picked up her phone and was surprised to see that

Mond is calling her.

The phone continued to ring until Cherry finally decided to answer it.
