Ice and Fire novel Chapter 164

After they left, Derek said to Selina, "It seems that Jackson is a little upset."

"It must be because of Cherry. Don't worry about it, they can handle it by themselves, " said Selina.

"Well, then let's enjoy our vacation and leave them alone."

"Good, I can't agree with you more on this, " cheerfully replied Selina. She was very happy that her dear brother had the same ideas as she did.

Jackson took Cherry into their room, pushed her directly onto the bed, and then threw himself on her.

"Jackson, let me go!" protested Cherry.

Jackson had no intention of letting her go. He closely stared at her, and asked, "Why did you act like that on the plane?"

"It wasn't convenient for us on the plane, and what's more, there were also other people around us. How could you behave like that?" quickly said Cherry. She was very angry with him, because he didn't know how to behave himself while they were in public spaces.

"Is it convenient for us now?" continued Jackson. He had no intention of letting her go.

Cherry saw his roguish look in his eyes, and realized that it was impossible for her to reason with him.

Cherry waited for a moment and calmed herself down. She then looked at him, and said, "Jackson, we've just got off the plane. Could we rest first? We'll be staying here for several days. Why are you in such a hurry?"

After Jackson heard Cherry's words, he thought to himself, 'Her words seem to be reasonable enough. She's right, I have a lot of chances ahead, and there's no need for me to be in such of a hurry. We've been on the plane for such a long time and she surely must be tired. I have to let her rest.'

Jackson didn't let Cherry go until he kissed her.

Cherry then got up quickly, looked around the room they were staying and spent some time to see it's layout. She then said to Jackson, "I'm going to take a shower. Meanwhile, you can go and ask Selina at what time we'll have dinner together."

"Okay, " said Jackson, as he walked over to the sofa and sat on it.

After Cherry walked into the bathroom, Jackson took out his phone and dialled Derek's phone number. When the call was connected, Jackson asked Derek to come to his room for a short conversation.

When Derek arrived to Jackson's room he saw that he was alone. Worried, he asked, "Where's Cherry?"

Jackson moved his eyes towards the bathroom's door, and said, "She's taking a shower."

Derek was still a little worried, and as he approached Jackson, he whispered, "Can she hear us talk?"

Jackson however didn't care about that, and replied, "Go ahead. Even if she hears us, it doesn't matter."
