Ice and Fire novel Chapter 37

Jackson did not say a word. He loosened her hands from his waist, turned away and departed from the house.

Seeing Jackson go, Sally He thought of Cherry and, immediately, a murderous expression appeared in her eyes. She said to herself, 'Cherry, I cannot share this man with you. Jackson belongs to me."

Two days later, Sally He was expecting Jackson to arrive home early in the morning, but even by noon, there was no sign of him. It occurred to her that she could take this opportunity to meet Cherry.

Arriving at Jackson's home and seeing the high-grade apartment, Sally He was so dissatisfied that she believed she should be the one living in this place, not Cherry.

Sally He rang the bell on the door, and waited for Cherry to open the door for her.

Hearing the bell, Cherry was curious. Who would come to her home at this hour? Had Jackson come back?

Cherry walked there and opened the door, being completely surprised by the sight of Sally He standing there.

"Why have you come here?" Cherry asked.

"Why? Why can't I come here?" Sally He retorted, "It's not only your home, but also Jackson's."

"What do you want?" Negative feelings rose in Cherry's heart. Looking into Sally He's eyes, she felt that Sally He was like a time bomb that could erupt at any moment.

Sally He did not answer Cherry's question. Pushing her aside, Sally He walked inside.

Sally He looked at the furnishings in the room. Every furniture, every thing here was so sumptuous. Everything was so neat and Sally He was anxious to own it all.

Having no clue what Sally He was going to do, Cherry just followed her around waiting to see what she intended to do.

Sally He did not realize that she has been secretly photographed when she approached Cherry's home.

"Sally He, what are you planning to do?" Cherry couldn't help asking.

'I just want to see what a lovely and warm home Jackson has given you. I'll ask for a better one in the future.' Sally He said to herself, without looking at Cherry.

Cherry walked up to Sally He, with her finger pointed at the door, and said, "Sally He, this is my home. Please leave."

"You are not on my level to ask me to leave." Sally He looked at Cherry sternly, as the anger in her eyes dispersed slowly.

Cherry was too angry to say a word.

"It seems that you have received good treatment from your nominal husband. Could it even be regarded as a great fortune that you had the chance to live here?" Sally He teased.

"Hehe, " a sneer appeared on Cherry's face, "Thanks for your praise. I lead a normal person's life wherever I live. However, I have learned that Miss He has been away from this kind of life for a long time."

Sally He's face turned gray. She looked at Cherry, "Cherry, I'm the eldest daughter of He family and no matter what kind of a life I have lived, I am the woman Jackson loves the most. But you, you are nothing."

"Sally He, are you sure you are the eldest daughter of the He family? It seems that most people in the city don't know you at all, " Cherry said, but she felt nervous in her heart, as she did not know what had actually happened to Sally He that fateful year. She had only heard that it was because of Jackson's protection that Sally He could leave. And now, she had came back.

"You!" Sally He stared at Cherry, speechless with fury.

Then Cherry sat down. "Miss He, please have a seat. As you have an abnormal relationship with Jackson, there is no need for me to receive you. Help yourself if you want to have some water."

"Cherry, do you really think you are the mistress of this family?" Sally He's fury was so great that she could hardly speak smoothly.

"Or else? The names on the marriage certificate are Jackson and Cherry, not Jackson and Sally, " Cherry said, peacefully.

"I'll let you get your divorce certificate from Jackson, " Sally He said impatiently, gnashing her teeth in anger.

"Fine, I'm looking forward to it." A sneer appeared on Cherry's face, "To be honest, it's so boring to be with Jackson. If you want, I could give him to you."

"Cherry, get out of the house now!" Sally He yelled.

Cherry was agitated, as well. She quickly stood up, looked at Sally He and said angrily, "You are not in a position to say this to me. Only Jackson can make me leave. As for you, you are nothing."

"Cherry, this home will belong to me sooner or later." Sally He appeared to have lost her mind.

"At least it's mine now. Sally He, the person who should leave is you. Get out!" Cherry said, the last two words in a loud voice. She was annoyed every time she saw this woman. How could she allow her act this way in her own house?"

"Humph! I will go after I destroy the house." With these words, Sally He turned and walked upstairs.

Seeing Sally He go upstairs, Cherry did not know what to do. She immediately followed her.
