Chapter 90 Be Strong While Alone (2/2)
”Oh! That's good!”
Wilson then suddenly asked her, ”Cherry, have you ever heard of the JS program?”
Cherry shook her head, and asked, ”What's that?”
Wilson had received the news about the JS program earlier on that day, and he wanted to take it. He said, ”It's a profitable program because it considerably influences the city's development. If we can take it, our company's future will be very promising.”
Cherry thought that Wilson was right, and that the company might develop faster if he could seize the opportunity.
She encouraged Wilson, ”Go
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex. To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him. ”As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women...

Wilson wanted to comfort her, but he couldn't, because he knew that no one could replace Jackson in her heart. He said, ”That's okay.”
Cherry then told herself that she had to be strong, and that all of the present hardships were nothing compared with what she had suffered during the past five years while she was away. She firmly said, ”I'll hunt for jobs tomorrow, and if something comes up, Joe and I will move out of here.”
Even though Cherry refused him, Wilson still wanted to take care of her, and he said, ”Cherry, the villa is yours and I will help dad and auntie settle somewhere else. By the way, the security here is also good, and I will be worried sick about the two of you if you move to someplace else, so please don't move out, please.”
Cherry shook her head, and firmly refused him. She said, ”Thank you for all the things that you have done for us, Wilson. Don't worry about me being independent. I've lived in the city before, so my life here won't be too difficult.”
Before Wilson could reply, she continued, ”It's time to go to sleep, so I'll go upstairs now. Goodnight, Wilson.”
Cherry then quickly turned around and climbed the staircase.
When he looked at her emaciated figure, Wilson was sad, because he knew that life had always been tough for her.
When Wilson had first seen Cherry five years ago, she couldn't help but cry most of the time, and he knew that it was because of Jackson. He had taken care of her before Joe was born, but after that she refused any kind of help coming from him. He had seen her work, take care of Joe, and suffer for five years, but no one had managed to persuade her to accept a helping hand, neither Wilson, nor his dad or auntie. She wanted to be strong, as she had always been, and the present was no exception.
