Jackson nodded,”Fine, okay. But start preparing as soon as you can.”

Derek joked with Jackson,”I'm the one getting married and I'm not even worried. Why are you anxious about my wedding?”

Jackson ignored Derek's jokes and calmly replied,”You know why. After you get married, Amy will move in with you at the villa. Joe can go to your villa for piano lessons. And Cherry will get to sleep peacefully.” He thought that there was no way for Derek to tease him.

Derek gave up. ”Forget I mentioned it.” He realized he could not win with Jackson.

Derek changed the subject to the real reason he was there. ”So, how did it go? You met with them this afternoon, right?”

Jackson massaged his forehead and closed his eyes. He didn't open them when he spoke to Derek. ”Jonson kept silent. And Eric said he needed to see the token.”

Derek asked,”What did you tell them? The truth? Did you tell them the truth?” He nervously waited for Jackson's answer.

Jackson opened his eyes but kept them on the ceiling. He shook his head. ”Not yet. I can't tell them the truth. Not yet.”

Derek pressed Jackson with more questions. ”How did you deal with Eric then?”

Jackson answered,”I'm more powerful and tougher than him. He'll always listen to me.” But Jackson knotted his eyebrows in deep thought. ”I'm worried about Bobby. He knows too much about me. And if he stays with Eric, he's gonna be a threat.”

”But they're best friends, he'll never betray Eric,” Derek reminded Jackson.
