Ice and Fire

Jackson didn't pay too much attention to Joe, who was sitting beside him. The only thing that he wanted to know was where had Cherry gone to.

After he arrived in the backyard, Jackson suddenly stopped when he saw that both Lily's and Bill's bedroom lights were still on.

'What's the hell is going on here?' wondered Jackson in his mind.

He then directly walked to Bill's bedroom and knocked on the door.

Bill opened the door, and saw Jackson standing in the doorway with the little master behind him.

Bill immediately greeted him, "Master!"

"How can you be at home?" asked Jackson, in a very inquiring manner.

Bill was somehow confused with what Jackson had just asked him. After all, he was supposed to be at home at that hour.

At that moment, Lily, who was living next to Bill, opened her door, and walked out after she heard the noise coming from outside.

Seeing that Jackson and Bill were standing opposite to each other, she asked puzzled, "Mr. Jackson, what happened?"

Jackson didn't pay too much attention to Lily's words. He kept his eyes on Bill, and asked, "Where did Cherry go?"

Bill was shocked by his question, and didn't know how to answer it. He carefully thought about it, and then obediently replied, "Isn't, isn't Mrs. Cherry in the house?"

"Her car is also missing, " added Jackson. His expression showed that he was already boiling with fury.
