Ice and Fire novel Chapter 503

"Cherry, how are you?" asked Amy as she walked over to Cherry and took her hand.

"We just arrived, I thought you were supposed to get here earlier. Why are you so late?" Cherry asked with an inflection of curiosity.

"On our way over we got stuck in traffic, " Derek answered.

"I see. Let's get in, " Cherry said.

The four walked into the JS Group together.

Arriving on the floor where Selina's office was, they got off the elevator. Selina and Wilson were sitting on the lounge chatting with each other. When Selina caught sight of them, she got up right away and dashed over to them.

"Hello guys, finally, you got here!" Selina greeted them politely all together, thinking it was too formal to greet each of them individually.

"You called, so, we, rushed over, naturally, " Cherry responded smiling.

"Cherry, thank you for giving me so much faith! Today's lunch is on me. I wouldn't ask any of you to come for no reason, so please, don't be angry, " Selina told Cherry grinning, as she linked her arm in Cherry's.

"I'm not mad, besides, Jackson said getting angry harms my health, " Cherry replied casually, walking towards the lounge with Selina.

"Selina, Cherry has been showing her affection. Haven't you noticed?" Amy giggled while she teased Cherry.

Knitting her brows in concentration, Selina mulled over Amy's words quickly, and then gave Cherry a cursory glance, "Huh, oh wow! You're right! It's rare for Cherry to listen to Jackson's advice obediently, " Selina stated as she turned to look over at Amy.

Smiling slyly, Cherry said to Selina, "Selina, are you sure you want to keeping clinging to me?" Then Cherry feigned a look of hurt directed at Wilson and whined, "Wilson? Would you look at your girlfriend, over here bullying me?"

"Oh no! Cherry, you got it all wrong, " Selina immediately sat down alongside Cherry, "Really, it was simply a mistake. How could I dare to bully you with Jackson around?" Selina looked like a perfect angel, and managed to keep a straight face the whole time.

Derek and Amy burst into laughter. Jackson and Wilson glanced at each other, and then smiled approvingly.

"Cherry, when she's around you, she is as timid as a mouse. In reality though, she is domineering. She acts like a child in your presence, " Derek told Cherry as well as Amy who was sitting near to him.

"Well, you're right. Selina, don't pay attention to what I said, " stated Cherry.

"Cherry, as long as you are with me, I am happy, " Selina replied as she leaned on Cherry's shoulder with a contented expression.

"Well, when you and my brother are married, we can hang out all the time. Perhaps we will get to see each other more often too! " Cherry returned cheekily. 'Selina will be my sister-in-law, soon. I will need to be more respectful after she marries Wilson, ' she recognized.

Selina sighed, "Oh Cherry, you treat me best, " she stated with a satisfied expression on her face.

"Well? You said you had something important to tell us. So, what is it?" Cherry asked, suddenly remembering they were meeting for a specific reason while reminding herself silently, 'I mustn't forget to tell everyone my news either.'
