Ice and Fire novel Chapter 376

The doctor bowed his head and said, "Okay, I'll handle and coordinate the transfer." the doctor said to Derek and left.

Cherry felt drained, her body too weak to even stand up. She found herself putting her head on Selina's shoulder. She couldn't bear the sorrow of losing Andrew, let along Jackson. What's next? How would Jackson deal with her? He wouldn't let her end well, would he? she thought silently and closed her eyes.

Suddenly, Jackson gently called, "Derek."

"Yes?" Derek replied.

"Ask Bobby to announce the news that Andrew has passed away; order Eric and Jonson not to do anything before the end of Andrew's funeral. If anyone dares to disobey, " Jackson thought for a while before he continued, "lose them."

Derek nodded, looking at the Jackson who was now calm and seemed to be more of himself now, "Got it. I'll do it now." Derek said.

Derek knew the situation has turned to worse. Jackson now needs to carry the responsibility of being the head of the Chu family. Being the eldest Grandson he will inherit Andrew's power and position, but along with it is the pressure and responsibility.

Jackson then walked out of the emergency room.

Derek turned to Cherry and Selina and said to Selina. "Selina, take good care of Cherry." Then he left and followed Jackson out.

Selina nodded, "Okay, I know. Derek, just go and do your business. Don't worry about us." She answered as her brother walked away.

Derek and Jackson left the hospital premises.

Many people gathered in the Chu Family home, the house atmosphere was in chaos. Lily fixed the mourning hall up with the rest of the servants; Bill was busy driving around town doing errands; Derek and Bobby welcomed the mourning relatives and friends in the parlor located in the first floor. Jackson was, however, nowhere to be seen.

In Andrew's room on the second floor, Jackson sat still by Andrew's bedside. He sat silently, looking somber. He missed his Grandfather so much.

Cherry was sitting on the chair not far away. Her eyes were swollen yet her tears does not seem to have an end. She too missed the old man.

Joe leaned at Cherry. He was quiet, although he did not say anything, it was obvious that he missed his great-grandfather.

Sometimes Joe would whisper to his mother, "Mommy, I miss great grandpa!

Cherry would then hug his son and kiss his forehead. She would then whisper to him, "I also miss him."

This time Joe cried and said, "Mommy, I hate to apart with great grandpa. I miss him!"

Cherry didn't know what to tell her son. She tried to turn to Jackson for his help, but Jackson remained stoic. It was as if they were not there in the room with him.

Cherry took Joe into her arms to settle and calm him down.

She sat beside him and hugged him until he stopped crying.
