Chapter 258 The Valuable Pendants (Part Two) (1/2)

Cherry had leisure time and was carefree for the whole day. She sat in her office surfing the Internet or occasionally drinking tea, and just had to sign her name on some documents, because most of her work had been assigned to her staff.

In the afternoon, when Cherry was sitting in the office waiting to be off-duty, the phone suddenly rang.

Cherry took out her phone and saw it was Jackson.

She answered, ”Hello?”

Jackson's gentle voice sounded from the other end of the line. He said, ”Honey, are you busy now?”

”No, I had nothing to do the whole day, ” said Cherry. She asked, ”What's up? Why did you call me?”

”I miss you, and I want to call you, ” replied Jackson vaguely.

Cherry suddenly became shy and embarrassed, and said, ”Don't flirt with me! Do you really have nothing to say to me other than that?”

After he heard Cherry's words, Jackson seriously said, ”Honey, something happened in the army and I have to deal with it, so I may not come back tonight. That means that you have to pick up Joe from school after work.”

”Oh, okay, ” said Cherry calmly.

Jackson paused for a moment, and then said, ”Don't kick off the quilt tonight, without me tucking you back in, you might catch a cold.”

Cherry was suddenly stunned by his words, and wondered, 'Is he worrying about me?'

”Okay, I'll sleep with Joe tonight, ” quickly replied Cherry.

Jackson then said, ”And please tell Grandpa the reason of my absence when you get back home; I won't call home.”
