Ice and Fire novel Chapter 627

Cherry looked at Susan and she was stunned. It had been ages since she saw her last time.

With a professional tone, Susan smiled, looked at Cherry and said,"Nice to meet you."

Cherry nodded but she was unsure whether Susan was actually pleased to meet her or not. Susan had pretended too well. After all, she had worked for so many years and it seemed that she had mastered the art of pretending by now. She had been a waitress in the past and now she was working in the headquarters of the JC group. Surely she had by now learned how to get her way out.

Jackson was right there sitting in a chair. He quickly noticed Cherry's presence and walked to meet her at the door. He placed his hand on Cherry's shoulder and said to Susan coldly,"There's nothing I need you to do. Just go and continue your work now."

Susan said,"Okay." She bowed her head and quietly made an exit from the place without the slightest of sound.

Cherry was shocked. In her mind she thought, 'Susan has become quite professional and has lost her innocent and warm personality of the past. What a drastic change she has undergone, it is surprising'.

Jackson was gazing at her with admiration. Finally after a pause he said,"Cherry, what are you looking at?" So far he had never maintained a cold approach towards Cherry.

Cherry recovered, but still looking ahead she replied,"Oh, I was thinking that Susan had changed so much."

Jackson understood what Cherry was trying to hint at. He knew Cherry had previously met Susan in a bar and seeing her like this now would have left her astonished.

Jackson said patiently,"Baby, time flies really fast, our daughter is 10 years now. Ten years is a very long time and everyone changes. That bar was one of our initial businesses and now we are having a well settled business. Don't you think at this pace people would also change accordingly?"

Cherry thought and realized that he was so correct. In 10 years people had to change and that was a truth of life.

Cherry looked up at Jackson and smiled,"You're absolutely right. Our son is also going to graduate from junior middle school."

Seeing her smile Jackson playfully touched her nose with his finger and said jokingly,"Where did you hide my smart and capable wife? Why are you behaving so silly now? Is something wrong?"

Cherry feigned anger and quickly replied,"You are calling me silly? Jackson, I feel you want to sleep on the couch this night? Great. I have been wanting to sleep with my daughter for several days."

Hearing this Jackson quickly went back on his words,"No, no, no. I was just kidding."

Cherry saw a nervous Jackson and she laughed happily. She realized that the charm of her cute husband was still intact.

Cherry became all serious and said,"Now let's get back to work." She knew that they should not be flirting with each other in Office. It was a strict no no for her.

Jackson replied,"Okay. Let's sit over there. I'll ask my assistant to bring us two cups of coffee." As he said so, he walked to the sofa and sat down with Cherry.
