The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 17

"What? You're not even going to welcome me in? I came here straight after finishing work without even having dinner just to bring Jay this gift. What's this attitude?"

Baron asked in a tone of mock indignation.

"It's not like that. You're always welcome to my home. Anyway, we haven't had dinner yet either, so let's go out and eat. I'll go and call Jay."

Nicole turned around to go upstairs and bring Jay, but before she could walk away, Baron grasped her shoulder.

"I want to eat the food that you made. Jay told me on the phone that you made braised fish in brown sauce."

Back in Manhattan, they had often had dinner together, even after Nicole had given birth to Jay.

In fact, Baron's girlfriend at that time had even broken up with him over his friendship with Nicole, suspecting that Jay was actually his child. Baron hadn't even tried to explain the truth to her. And after that, he had never dated anyone else.

The truth was, he was actually a little disappointed that Jay was not his child.

"Ah! Well, there's no more, we already ate all of it. So, let's go out instead," Nicole explained.

If it weren't for Kerr, there would have been some food leftover. Today, she had made all the dishes that Jay liked, but it had turned out that Kerr was fond of them as well.

'Like father, like son. Blood ties are strong indeed,' she thought to herself.

Then, she continued, "Wait for me in the car. I'll ask Jay to come down."

Baron nodded and got into his car. Sitting in the driver's seat, he looked thoughtfully at Nicole's receding figure.

Earlier, a black Rolls Royce had passed him, and from inside the car, Kerr had given him a provocative glare.

Anyway, this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that Nicole seemed to feel something for Kerr.

A while later, Nicole walked out and got into the passenger seat of the car.

"Jay said that he prefers to stay home and read a book, so I'll just bring him back some food."

Nicole fastened her seat belt and leaned her head against the seat with a hint of agitation on her face.

"What's wrong? Are you in any trouble?"

As Baron started the car and drove it out of the community, he kept shooting glances at Nicole to observe the expression on her face.

"Sort of. There's something I haven't told you yet. It turns out that Kerr Gu is Jay's father," Nicole finally said.

She didn't know who she could turn to for help, so she decided to discuss it with Baron.

When Baron heard that, he immediately stepped on the brakes and turned to Nicole in shock.

"I asked you who Jay's father was even before he was born, but you said you didn't know."

He had always wondered about the identity of Jay's father, but since Nicole hadn't given him any information about it, he had completely been in the dark until now.

"I really didn't know at that time. I just found out by chance a while ago. The whole situation is so coincidental. Anyway, you are the only person I've told this to. You can't tell Jay about it," Nicole said seriously.

Jay was a clever boy, and he seemed to like Kerr a lot already. She was afraid that if he knew that Kerr was his father, he would directly tell Kerr about it.
