Chapter 433 Shopping Trip (1/2)

That morning, when Cherry got downstairs, she found that Lily had cooked breakfast.

Jackson was finished with his morning exercises and coming back in the house. When he saw Cherry standing in the living room, he went to greet her.

”Is Joe up yet?” asked Jackson.

”No, not yet.” replied Cherry.

Jackson turned and asked Lily, ”Lily, could you please go upstairs and wake Joe up?”

”Yes.” Lily replied and headed up the stairs.

Jackson took Cherry's hand and led her to the dining room, ”Let's have breakfast.”

Joe came scrambling downstairs a while later, and saw his parents were already having breakfast in the dining room. He sat down and started eating quietly.

Cherry looked at Joe and said, ”Joe, I will be driving you to school today.”

”That's great!” said Joe smiling sweetly at his Mother.

Jackson had a worried look as he asked Cherry, ”Will you be late getting to work if you take Joe to school first?”

”No, it will be okay.” replied Cherry.

Jackson went silent and enjoyed his repast.

Not long after breakfast, Cherry and Joe set out.

Joe sat in his Mommy's car looking out the window with a puzzled expression, ”Mommy, why don't you let Daddy drive me to school and then take you to work?” he asked.

”Because Daddy is very busy. He already has lots to do. Have you forgotten about his job? He handles the day to day operations.” Cherry explained to Joe patiently.

”Oh, I see, ” said Joe lowering his head and fiddling with his fingers.

”Well, Joe.” Cherry said out of the blue and she hastily asked her son, ”I was wondering, if you have any hobbies or interests? I was thinking maybe you could take a course in one of the Arts.”

”One of the Arts? Do you mean like painting, singing or something?” Joe asked his Mommy seriously.

”Yes.” replied Cherry nodding.

”Mommy, to be honest, I am interested in learning to play the piano. It would be amazing to create beautiful music with my fingers, ” said Joe.

”The piano? Good, I like that! I'll talk it over with Daddy and get a piano teacher to come tutor you at home, ” said Cherry.

”Okay. That sounds great!” said Joe.

”But, Joe, will you be stressed with your school studies and learning the piano after school? Will it be too much for you?” asked Cherry. She wanted to make sure that Joe really wanted to learn to play the piano.

”No, It won't be hard at all. My school work is too easy. Besides, at home I can learn things I enjoy. So, I will be very happy.” Joe said in an innocent way.

”That's wonderful my good boy! I will arrange for a piano teacher as soon as I discuss it with your Daddy, okay?” Cherry said smiling.

”Yay!” Joe exclaimed happily looking at his Mommy.

After dropping her son off at school, Cherry drove to the H King Group.

Jackson called a meeting with several of the senior management like usual when he reached the bar. Afterwards, he sat in the front office browsing through the files.
