Chapter 191 I'll Protect My Mommy

The three people then sat together at the table for dinner. Joe felt warm in his heart when he saw his

cold father help him and his Mommy pick their food, and he wondered, 'Is this a father's love?'

Seeing his Mommy's happy face, Joe thought that as long as she was happy, he was happy. At the

same time, he also yearned for his Daddy's love, and although Jackson was cold on the surface, Joe

saw that he was very special to his Mommy, and he thought that his Daddy was also special to him.

Noticing that he was somehow absent-minded at the table, Cherry asked, "Joe, what are you thinking

about?"

After he heard her question, Joe quickly lowered his head, and answered her, "Nothing..."

"Are you thinking of that girl again?" guessed Cherry.

"Mommy, you're annoying sometimes, but I want to sleep with you tonight, " said Joe with a lovely smile

on his face.

When he head him, Jackson's face darkened in an instant. He slowly put down the tableware, and as

he looked at Joe, he said, "You will sleep alone from now on."

"Why? I slept with my Mommy back in my Uncle's house, " said Joe. He refused to obey Jackson's

command, and thought, 'Why can't I still sleep with Mommy here?'

Cherry feared that two people would quarrel and quickly grabbed Jackson's arm, suggesting him not to

quarrel with the child.

As she looked at Joe, Cherry quickly said, "Okay, well, go and do your homework after dinner, and

come to Mommy's room to sleep with me at night."

Jackson became anxious when he heard Cherry's words. He wanted to say something, but he saw that

Cherry was still looking at him.

She said to him, "You go back to your own room; I want to sleep with my son."

Looking at Cherry, Jackson didn't have the courage to resist. The woman was like a demon, and he

had already been unconsciously persuaded by her.

Joe was very satisfied with how the talk went and put down his tableware. He wiped his lips and hands

with the napkin next to him on the table, and said, "Daddy, Mommy, I'm full, and now I'll go upstairs to

do homework. Mommy, can you help me with the bath water and wash with me later?"

Cherry urged her son to leave, "Okay, but now go upstairs and do your homework." The little

mischievous fellow was always too sticky.

After he watched his son leave, Jackson revealed an astonished look on his face, and said to Cherry,

"Do you still want to bathe with him?"

Cherry was a little surprised, and while she nodded to Jackson, she asked him, "Yes, what's wrong with

that?"

"He's a man, and you're a woman!" Jackson couldn't find a proper reason at that time, and instead

found the most basic and stupidest of them all. In fact, he was jealous that his son could sleep and

bathe with Cherry, and he thought that although Cherry was his woman, he hadn't had many chances

to enjoy the special treatments that his small baby son had been enjoying for the last five years.

When Cherry heard Jackson's reason, she couldn't help but laugh. She covered her mouth with her

hand, and as she looked at the man in front of her, she wondered, 'How could his IQ be reduced to

such an awful extent?'

With a smile on her face, she said, "But he's my son."

Jackson then took on a kind of hegemonic look. He suddenly got closer to Cherry, and as he looked

deep into her eyes, he seriously said, "But you're my woman! You should do these things with me, not

with the little heir!" NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

Cherry still smiled at him, and replied, "When did you become so naive? Why are you so worried about

a child?"

Jackson ignored Cherry's words, and said overbearingly, "In the future, treat him coldly! Don't forget,

you're mine!"

Looking at Jackson, Cherry's heart was filled with happiness. His overbearing behavior made her nod

helplessly, and she said, "I know, well, you're overbearing and all, but I want to treat you two the same.

He's my son, and you know that I can't abandon him."

"Then you have to treat me as good as you're to him, " suddenly said Jackson.

Cherry couldn't help but laugh out loud this time, and replied, "Jackson, when did you learn that you

could fight with your own son?"

"Be serious, Cherry!" said Jackson even more domineering when he saw Cherry copiously laughing at

him. He wouldn't let go of Cherry unless he heard the answer he wanted.

Seeing Jackson's dark face, Cherry quickly nodded, and said, "Okay, I know, I know, come on, eat your

dinner first."

Cherry then quickly pushed Jackson away from her and lowered her head to eat while she was still

laughing. She thought that there might still be happiness for them in the future, and that the future with

Jackson might not be as distressful as she had initially imagined it to be.

Lily Wu was busy in the kitchen, but when she saw what happened in the dining room earlier, she was

very happy. This kind of warm family was very rare, and she could tell that Mr. Jackson treated his

woman only with the utmost seriousness. She guessed that he indeed had to love her very much in his

heart.

After dinner, Cherry was about to go to the bathroom to fill the tub with bath water for her son

immediately after she changed into her pajamas in her room, but the door was slung open before she

got out.

Joe came into the room in his own SpongeBob pajamas, and said, "Mommy, I finished my homework,

and I want to have my bath now!"

Jackson also followed him into the bedroom.

"Why are you here?" asked Cherry. She was a little surprised to see Jackson there, and wondered,

'Why doesn't he sleep in his own room? What does he want to do now?'

Jackson ignored Cherry's words, and said to Joe, "Son, Daddy will bathe you tonight."

"No, I want Mommy!" said Joe as he approached Cherry. In reality, he actually felt happy in his mind,

and wondered, 'Is Daddy trying to get closer to me?'

"She can't bathe with you anymore, " said Jackson domineeringly.

"Why?" asked Joe.

Like he was somehow announcing something, and in a very overbearing tone, Jackson said, "She can

only bathe with me from now on!"

Joe didn't dare to resist his Daddy's command, and he only looked at his Mommy.

Cherry didn't know what to do either. Jackson would never accept it when other people disobeyed his

orders.

Cherry thought for a while, and after she touched her son's head, she said, "Joe, go and bathe with

your Daddy."

"Okay, " nodded Joe, and continued, "I'm still happy, because it's not that bad to have Daddy help me

bathe!"

Looking at his son, Jackson really admired his cuteness. No matter what Joe said, he didn't feel angry

at all.

Cherry was still a little worried, and said, "Take care of Joe in the bathroom. Don't let him slip on the

floor, he loves to play when he sees water."

Right after they heard Cherry's words, Joe pulled Jackson's hand, and said, "Daddy, let's go now."

Jackson didn't reply to Cherry at first, but while he was walking with his son to the bathroom, he said,

"Bring me some pajamas!"

When Cherry saw them entering the bathroom, she helplessly shook her head, but a happy smile also

appeared on her face. She hoped that her son would have his father's love, and that Jackson would

also love Joe as well.

In the bathroom, Jackson and Joe were chatting with each other in the large tub.

"Daddy, your body is awesome!" Joe looked at Jackson's abdominal muscles and envied him.

"I'm a soldier, I have to be, " indifferently said Jackson.

Joe then suddenly approached Jackson, and as he leaned against him said, "Daddy, could you teach

me how to exercise in the future? I also want to become strong, so I can protect Mommy."
