Ice and Fire novel Chapter 128

Cherry slowly stood up from her seat when she saw Sally walking towards her.

Sally walked up to her in a clearly vicious manner. She looked at Cherry, and with disdain in her voice, said, "When did you become the secretary of the JS Group?"

Cherry ignored her words, and instead just stared at her. Eventually, she asked, "What are you doing here?"

"That's none of your business, " replied Sally, coming closer to her.

Cherry kept her silence, and realized that Sally had come there just to make trouble.

Sally was a bit annoyed by Cherry's silence. She looked at her up and down, and in a defiant manner, said, "I haven't seen you in five years, and yet you've changed so little. You're as attractive as you've always been."

The irony in her words couldn't have been more obvious. Five years had passed, and indeed, Cherry hadn't changed or aged a bit.

Cherry thought to herself, 'I was bullied by her five years ago, but now I won't let it happen again.'

All of sudden, Cherry put on a big smile on her face, and said, "Ms. Sally is also exceedingly beautiful. Otherwise, how could you have been with Jackson for so long?"

Sally was puzzled by Cherry's words, and thought, 'Is she praising me or is she just being jealous?'

Sally's tone then suddenly became harsher. She stared at Cherry, and said, "Cherry, don't forget that Jackson has been my man ever since childhood. Even if you're married with him, he's still mine."

Cherry seemed to be calm, and replied with a big grin on her face, "I've never said that he's mine or yours, and I can't even begin to understand why you would even bother to say such a thing."

Sally was irritated by Cherry's words. She had come there to humiliate her, but instead she was being dissed. What's more, she didn't even know how to fight back.

"Cherry!" cried Sally infuriated.

Cherry was not afraid of her at all, and instead leisurely said, "Ms. Sally, if you've come here to discuss his affair with me, please leave at once. I have to work now, and my boss will soon return, not to mention that it's really impolite for you to be here without an appointment."

"Impolite?" Sally was more and more furious by each passing moment. She thought, 'How dare she speak to me like this?'

It was obvious that Sally was there to make trouble for her.

Cherry felt helpless, and tried to persuade her to leave. "Ms. Sally, please leave here at once. I have work to do now, and I really don't have the time to discuss this kind of things with you right now."

After she said this, Cherry was just about to sit down at her desk and go on with her work, but she was suddenly stopped by Sally.

She grabbed her arm, pulled her aside, and stopped her from sitting down on her chair. She glared at Cherry, and hysterically cried, "What the hell are you doing here? Do you want to get back to Jackson?"

Cherry looked straight into her eyes, and fearlessly said, "So what if I want to? I'm his legitimate wife by law. What's your role in his life? You've been with him for five years, but now I think that the time for you to leave has finally come."

Sally gnashed her teeth in rage, and said gloomily, "I knew that you came back to take him away from me!"

Cherry didn't want to say a word to her anymore, because she couldn't find any purpose in the conversation.

Sally suddenly said to Cherry, "How much money do you want? Just say how much, name your sum! As long as you'll leave him, I'll give you any amount, no matter how much you want."

Cherry was shocked by Sally's absurd thought. What was happening? The mistress now wanted to pay off the legitimate wife with money to quit her endeavors.

Cherry was irritated by her idea, and deliberately said, "I don't want money, I just want to be with him. What's your problem with that?"

Cherry wasn't expecting Sally to act so hysterical.

Sally slapped Cherry across her face, and furiously said, "You shameless bitch!"

Cherry wasn't a coward anymore, and without any sort of hesitation, she replied to Sally the same way.

She glared at Sally, and thought to herself, 'This damn woman has really gone too far! Last time she hit me at the party I didn't take my revenge on her, but now she has the nerve to hit me again? And at work? Oh, she's asking for trouble.'

Sally hadn't expected that Cherry would hit her. She was totally shocked, and she covered her red and swollen face and stared at Cherry.

At that moment, the elevator's door opened again, and Selina and Caroline walked out of it.

Selina was a bit surprised when she saw Sally in the office, and quickly realized that something was wrong as soon as she saw Cherry and Sally's expressions.

Caroline saw that Cherry was quietly standing near her desk, while Sally was nearby with half of her face covered by her palm. She wondered if they had fought with each other.

Selina then quickly walked up to Cherry and saw that half of her face was obviously red. She then looked at Sally, and saw that she was holding her hand on half of her face. She immediately realized what happened, and thought, 'Sally must have hit Cherry first and then Cherry hit her back.'

"What are you doing here?" asked Selina furiously, staring at Sally's face.

"I could only find the bitch here, now that she's working for you, " said Sally.

"Sally!" cried Selina harshly, "Are you crazy? How dare you make trouble here?"
