Ice and Fire

As Selina finished, Derek suddenly realized what had happened.

He quickly said, "Yep! I'll go with her. Jackson. You should take Cherry home."

When she heard that Selina was planning to leave, Cherry said immediately, "I'll call a taxi to go home. Just go ahead with your plan."

Cherry was about to leave when Selina followed her and grabbed her hastily.

"But Cherry, it's not safe to take a taxi since it's so late. We would all be worried if you went home alone. Just let Jackson take you home." Selina said and then turned to Jackson with a commanding face, "Hey! Say something, Jackson."

But Jackson only responded haughtily, "Whatever! I don't care."

With that, he opened the door of his car and got in.

Cherry said to Selina, "I'd better take a taxi, Selina. It's alright. I'll call you once I'm home."

Then she pushed back Selina's hand and turned away to leave.

Selina and Derek both got angry when they saw Cherry leave alone.

Jackson watched her going ahead alone instead of getting into his car. He was so furious that he immediately started the engine and the car shot off!

Jackson slammed on the brakes and stopped the car just in front of Cherry.

Cherry had to stop and stand there, taken aback.

Jackson rolled down the window and yelled at Cherry, "Get in, now."
