Ice and Fire novel Chapter 570

Lily shook her head to clear her mind. She knew Jackson's intention but it was not the time to tell the truth right now. She needed to pretend that she knew nothing.

Jackson left immediately after he finished his breakfast.

Lily watched Jackson drive away from the window. She stood still and listened for sounds of Cherry still sleeping. When she confirmed it, she dialed Hellen's number.

Hellen answered on the first ring. "Hello, Aunt."

"Jackson is on his way to his family home. Send your people to watch him right now and to watch the family home all the time," Lily ordered.

"Yes, of course. But why is Jackson going back?" Hellen was confused until a light bulb turned on in her head,"Is he coming back for..."

"Shut up. Don't say another word. Stop trying to figure out a situation you are not supposed to know. Just do what I said," Lily demanded. How dare this little girl think she could know everything and go against her will?

"Fine, it's done," Hellen replied but Lily had already hung up.

Hellen threw the phone on the sofa, where she lounged in her nightgown. She was in the presidential suite of the most luxurious hotel in the city. She was a shareholder in the hotel and, unlike the other shareholders, she didn't need a bonus at the end of the year. All she wanted was to get exclusive rights to the president suite and they gave it to her.

Before Hellen could make another move, her phone rang. Annoyed, she picked it up but worry filled her face when she saw the caller ID. She answered the call after 3 rings.

"Say it," Hellen demanded into the phone.

"Someone came to investigate the last person Andrew met with before he died," the man on the other line reported.

"Who was it?" She was anxious to find out who it was.

"The JS Group's President."

"Derek?" Helen guessed. It was either Derek or Selina. But Selina was not smart enough to compete with her. Jackson and Derek were the only ones clever and capable enough to battle it out with her.

"What does he know?" Hellen didn't wait for the other person to answer.

"He knows something," the man answered. Derek asked too many questions when he left to call Hellen. Derek most likely had the information he needed now.

"Damn you, idiots!" Hellen scolded the man before she hung up the phone.

Hellen quickly dialed Lily's phone to warn her.
