The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 162

Kerr took a look at Nicole and saw the concern on her face. There was no doubt what she was thinking about. So, gently, Kerr reached out a hand and stroked her hair.

"Don't worry. I'm sure Jay will agree."

Despite the confidence in Kerr's voice, Nicole still hesitated. Unlike Kerr, she had spent Jay's whole life beside him. So she naturally knew that although he looked strong, he was just a kid that depended on her.

At the same time, she also didn't want to let Kerr down and ended up with a dilemma in her hands.

In fact, she was already thinking of ways she could persuade Jay.

After they returned to the Gu's villa, Nicole decided to cook the braised fish for the two men in the house.

But as soon as Kerr saw her heading towards the kitchen, he held her wrist and said, "Don't bother. Vedder can prepare the dinner."

Kerr's goal was to make Nicole the happiest woman in the world. As long as they were together, he didn't want anything to upset her.

Still, Nicole freed her wrist from Kerr's grip and answered with a smile, "I like doing things for you." It seemed that with time, Nicole had unintentionally changed her beliefs.

At first, she used to be the kind of person who wanted to face everything on her own. She would always think ahead and pretend to be strong. But now, she was glad to simply be Kerr's woman.

Kerr smiled as he watched Nicole disappear into the kitchen. Then he turned around and walked towards the study upstairs. The moment he opened the door, he found Jay sat behind the desk, playing on the computer.

"I have something to tell you." Kerr crouched in front of Jay. Although Jay was still a child, Kerr took him for someone who could already think for himself. Therefore, the way Kerr chose to get along with the boy was to fully respect his wishes.

"Are you going to take Mommy away?"

Jay frowned at Kerr. He had overheard Harley say something about this before.

The idea of being apart from Nicole displeased him, but Kerr's offer was too good to pass up. So he hesitated.

"You know there can't be a surprise if she stays here. I'm taking her away because it's the best option now. Besides, you can also do your part to fulfill her wish. She will be happy when she finds out."

Kerr knew how much Jay cared about his mother and was sure he could persuade him to go along with his plan.

Jay was a child after all, so he couldn't outsmart the cunning Kerr in everything. The boy didn't think too much and nodded in agreement in the end.

"Okay, I'll stay, but you have to take good care of Mommy."

Despite his words, Jay's face gave away his reluctance. He felt as if Kerr was about to take from him, his most beloved person in the world.
