Ice and Fire novel Chapter 371

"Jackson, don't ever anger me again! You should always tell me if you have something to do, because you can never hide the truth from me, " commanded Cherry.

"Okay, okay, you call the shots at home and I will listen to every word you say every day, " quickly said Jackson, as he embraced Cherry even more tightly in his arms. Only when Cherry's scent was around him could he set his mind at ease and feel at peace.

When she felt how tight Jackson was holding her, Cherry patted on his back. "You were looking for the shirt earlier. Weren't you in a hurry to go out?"

'Jackson was looking for his clothes earlier, which means that he'll leave the house, but now he won't let me go. Does he still have time for his business outside?' wondered Cherry.

"There's no hurry, baby. You're more important than anything I have to do, " answered Jackson, as he put his head on Cherry's shoulder.

Cherry felt very sweet and delighted in her heart. Even though Jackson's beautiful words weren't completely sincere, she was still happy nevertheless, because at least they proved to her that she had a special place in his heart.

After some time passed, Cherry said, "Come on, it's already been too long. Go and change your clothes and go quickly. You don't want to be late."

When he heard Cherry's words, Jackson considered everything for a moment and then released Cherry from his arms. He softly touched her face with his hand, and said, "Why do I always feel so reluctant to leave you?"

"I won't ran away, so why are you so reluctant? Just come home early after you finish your business. I'll be waiting for you right here at home, " said Cherry smiling.

"Alright, wait for me, I'll be back soon, " replied Jackson with a big smile painted all over his face. He continued to say, "Cherry, it's you who brings the warmth to our home."

"Come on, hurry up already and change your clothes, " urged Cherry.

Jackson then got dressed and Cherry eventually fastened the buttons for him as she usually did. After she was sure that Jackson's clothes were perfectly neat, Cherry said, "Okay, you can go now. Be careful on the road."
