Ice and Fire novel Chapter 156

Jackson didn't look at Selina, but casually said, "You can pretend to be ignorant sometimes."

Selina heard Jackson's words and knew that she had guessed it right. She happily replied, "Hey, why did you conceal that from me! I definitely have to tell Cherry when she's back!"

Jackson then immediately focused his gaze on Selina. He shook her hand away from his shoulder and said, "How dare you, I'm planning to give her a surprise! If you screw this up for me you'll regret it!"

Selina then stuck her tongue out at him and made a mocking face. She said, "Humph! Nobody's envying your mansion!"

Derek was watching them from aside, and lazily said, "You silly girl! When you get married in the future I'll also buy you a mansion."

But Selina turned to him, and said, "I think it'd be better if I buy you one when you get married. By the way, where's your fiancee now?"

"Selina!" furiously shouted Derek; he didn't have a girlfriend, and was vey irritated to be laughed at by her because of this.

As Jackson watched them messing around, smile gradually started to appear on his face.

After Cherry returned, they left the JS Group together. Cherry got into Jackson's car, and Selina and Derek took another.

Inside Jackson's car, Cherry didn't know what to say and instead just looked out the window.

When Jackson saw that Cherry wouldn't open her mouth, he decided to break the silence between them.

"Say, don't you wanna talk to me?" asked Jackson.

Cherry hadn't thought that Jackson would talk to her, and replied, "What? No."

As Jackson drove the car, he had his eyes more on Cherry than on the road.

She worriedly said, "Don't look at me, look at the road!"

Smiling, Jackson said, "You're more good-looking than the road."

"Aren't you afraid of hitting other cars? It's rush hour now, and there are a lot of cars on the road! You should drive attentively!" angrily criticized Cherry. 'Sometimes he's even more wilful than a child!' she thought.

"Are you worrying about me?" suddenly asked Jackson, with a smile on his face.

Cherry then immediately adjusted her sitting position, moved her eyes away from Jackson and looked outside the window. She said, "Not at all!"

Still smiling, Jackson shook his head and said, "You can just be honest and admit it."

"Jackson, don't you think that you're sometimes too narcissistic for own good?" angrily said Cherry. Although she stared at Jackson's handsome figure, she thought that he was pretty infuriating.

"Cherry, don't you think that you've called me improperly?" asked back Jackson.

"Improperly?" Cherry pretended to be surprised, and curiously asked, "How should I call you then?"

"Our names are in the same marriage certificate. Do I really need to say it?" replied Jackson.

Cherry blushed immediately, and thought, 'He's making a fool out of me again!'

"Humph, no, I don't know!" said Cherry as she moved her eyes away from him, deciding to ignore him.

Jackson felt happy when he saw her. He often liked to tease her and to see her get angry like a child.

They arrived at the restaurant and then got out of the car. Jackson put his hand around Cherry's shoulders intimately regardless of the strangers around them and Selina and Derek beside them.

Cherry looked at Jackson nervously, and said, "What..."

But Jackson stared at her, and forcefully declared, "I'm just doing a good husband's job."

Cherry immediately became speechless.

Derek smiled and didn't mind when he saw the couple's intimate behavior, while Selina felt happy in her heart and thought that Cherry would soon finally return to the Chu Clan.
