Chapter 424 His Leaving (2/2)

Marrying Daniel should have been her best birthday gift, but everything was ruined the moment when she caught him sleeping with another woman on the day before her birthday.

“He’s going to marry that woman! She... was my best friend!”

had a look of surprise as she stared back at Jackson. She wondered what happened between the two men.

Jackson share what happened with Cherry, ”This morning Derek called and told me Stephen would sign over the entertainment assets, but, first he wanted to talk to me in person. So, we met at the coffee shop and he gave me all his assets, and told me he's leaving the city in two days.”

Cherry was astonished, ”Leaving the city? Where will he go?”

Jackson replied, ”Maybe he will go abroad. The city reminds him of things that happened in the past.” He didn't know where Stephen would go; he only knew Stephen had decided to leave the city.

Cherry pushed for more details, ”But? He has no relatives. Where can he go?” Cherry was worried. Since acquainted with Stephen, he had been lonely. He had no relatives and very few friends. He handed all his assets over to Jackson. Then where could he go?

Jackson held her hand and gently said, ”Honey, Stephen has planned and taken steps so he is able to do whatever he wants.”

Cherry relaxed after listening to Jackson, but she was still concerned. So she asked, ”Jackson, what about the problems between the two of you?” ...

She knew there had been problems between Stephen and Jackson. Though she didn't know the reason behind their problems, she believed it was related to their families. She no longer needed to know the exact reasons. After going through so much lately, she wasn't the same naive woman she had been a short time ago, and she had no desire anymore to understand everything that confused her.

Jackson said determinedly, ”We're friends now.” The look in his eyes told her, he wasn't kidding.

This news astonished Cherry and she questioned, ”You two are friends now?”

Jackson replied, ”Yes, we are. Maybe, his decision will be good for both of us. The best way to forget past hurts is to let it go of them, and not let them take root in one's heart.”

Cherry looked at Jackson calmly as she thought. Maybe, it was a happy ending for Jackson and Stephen.

Cherry asked, ”Jackson, may I see Stephen off when he leaves?”

Looking in Cherry's eyes, Jackson nodded in agreement.
