Ice and Fire

"Really?" Cherry asked again, because she still couldn't believe her ears.

Selina nodded to confirm it to her again, and then said, "It doesn't mean that I don't want to help you, but I think that you should talk with Jackson about that. He'll surely help you if you ask him, and then it'll be done."

Cherry was lost in thought and didn't say anything. She still hadn't come back to earth from what she heard, that the real owner of the JS Group was actually Jackson.

Selina analyzed the situation, and said, "Actually, it's okay for the JS Group to help with your brother's company. The JS Group won't lose anything, just as you said, however, the company isn't under my signature, it's under Jackson's." Selina paused for a moment, and then continued, "So, Cherry, I think you'd better ask Jackson for help."

Cherry didn't process Selina's words, and instead asked her, "So you've been the executive on the surface, and Jackson was the one who's been conducting all the things in the dark?"

Selina thought for a while, and said, "You're almost right about that. The important decisions were all made after I've consulted with Jackson, of course, but the affairs in the company are under my charge. In a few words, I'm not a real director, but an executive director."

Cherry then suddenly fell into silence.

Selina continued, "Cherry, just go and find Jackson. He'll surely help you, don't worry about it!"

But Cherry plainly replied, "There's no need for me to do that. I'll figure it out by myself some other way."

After that, Cherry turned around and left, with her heart filled with bitterness. She wasn't afraid of meeting with Jackson, but she was afraid that he would require her to return to the apartment as a precondition of his help to her.
