Ice and Fire

Joe saw the hate in Jean's eyes, and he felt that she looked very terrified and very determined at the same time.

Joe asked, "What did my Daddy do to you?" He thought to himself, 'Has my Daddy had his revenge on her? Before I was born, what happened between Daddy, Mommy, this Jean and the woman Sally He?'

Jean became even more irate, and said, "You're not qualified to know that."

Joe looked at Jean, and asked, "Do you hate my Daddy and Mommy?"

"Yes, and I also hate you! I hate you because you're Jackson's son!" replied Jean. She wanted to glare at him and hate him, but when she looked at Joe, she realized that she couldn't, and she had no idea why.

Joe looked at her and didn't feel terrific. He calmly added, "So why don't you kill me? Why don't you hurt me?"

Joe knew that a man like his Daddy certainly had enemies, and if they wanted to take their revenge on him, they would naturally come to hurt him first, because he was an easy and effective target.

Jean didn't reply him immediately; instead, she paused for a second, and then coldly said, "I'm not in a hurry. You're just a kid, and anyway I know how to control you."

Joe said, "Yes, yes. You look really smart."

Jean slightly smiled at him, and said, "Of course I'm smarter than you. Do you think that I lived for so long without learning anything on the way?"
