The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 137

And that strong sense of unease that bordered on alarm slid through her, especially now, Jay was still with her.

"Someone wants to see you. Miss Ning, please come with me,"

Cherry politely replied, lowering her head. Then her gaze softened when it landed on the little boy behind Nicole.

After Nicole keenly observed the woman, she stepped back a little before quickly turning around and squatted beside Jay. Scanning his face calmly, she approached his ear and said in a low voice,

"Wait for me for a minute. Mommy will catch this woman, but then you will have to run back to the hospital and look for Dr. Su. Do you understand?"

Although Nicole instinctively knew that there must be a lot of people hiding in the surrounding, she still wanted to give her plan a try. She didn't care about the people. What mattered to her now was that Jay had just recovered, and she couldn't afford to risk his life.

Jay instinctively looked at Cherry behind Nicole with a devoid expression on his small face. And then he discreetly focused his eyes on the black Rolls Royce parked behind this unknown woman. Having a firm grasp of their current situation, Jay finally looked at Nicole and nodded knowingly.

Nicole calmed herself down as she raised her hand to caress Jay's hair tenderly. Breathing a soft sigh, she slowly stood up and faced Cherry.

"Didn't we agree on a deadline being tomorrow? I have one day left to figure out everything,"

Nicole managed to voice out as she attempted to attract Cherry's attention. While at the same time, she silently let go of Jay's hand from her back, making a quick hand gesture to him.

Being smart at his young age, Jay cleverly understood the hint of his mother. And without saying another word, he sped back to the hospital as fast as he could.

"You..."

Looking at Jay, who was suddenly escaping, Cherry wanted to stop him but failed when Nicole immediately grabbed her arm with all her might. Jay ran back to the hospital as his mother silently watched from afar, holding her breath as she fought a rising panic within her.

"I tell you, though the Gu family is influential and formidable, you can do whatever you want to me. I chose to be with Kerr. It has nothing to do with Jay. If you dare hurt him, I will not let you go even if I die,"

Nicole warned as she put pressure on Cherry's arm. She sounded firm, enunciating each word as she stood her ground, still glaring at Cherry.

She vowed inwardly that under her protection and as long as she lived, nobody or no one could ever touch Jay.

"Miss Ning, you may have misunderstood us. It's just that my lady wants to talk with you. It's not as grave as you said,"

Cherry explained, surprised to hear Nicole's words. But soon, she understood why Nicole was so nervous. She was merely alarmed that they would hurt Jay. Now, she could only fathom a mother's heart to protect her child.

"Didn't you say that you would kill Jay and me if I don't leave Kerr?"

Nicole blurted, but she couldn't help frowning when she noticed the smile on Cherry's face. It seemed that she didn't mean to hurt them.

However, Nicole remained apprehensive and still dared not to let her guard down. When it came to her son's safety, she would never treat this concern ever so lightly. It would always be a matter of life and death to her.

"Miss Ning, you misunderstood us. My lady is waiting for you in the car. Now that you don't believe in us, you don't have to bring Jay with you this time. Please, Miss Ning,"

Cherry insisted politely and didn't want to make it difficult for Nicole. She hurriedly turned a little and gave Nicole a gesture of invitation.

"I won't go there. If I go, I may never come back,"

Nicole declined. All she wanted now was to go back to the hospital, thinking that both of them would be safe there. But before she could lift her leg, she felt that Cherry forcibly caught her wrist.

Giving her no chance to escape, Cherry held on to Nicole's arm rather tightly.

"I'm sorry, Miss Ning,"

Cherry said apologetically. She could be courteous to Nicole, but she could also take extraordinary measures to complete the task that Freya gave her. How could she stay beside Freya if she was just an ordinary weak woman?

As the fine needle hidden in the seam of her fingers was about to pierce into Nicole, a deep voice came from behind her.

"Stop!"

When Harley came hurriedly from the hospital, he witnessed Cherry's hand raised and stopped her right away.
