The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 23

Nicole didn't want to get the injection again, but she didn't say anything. She felt so nervous with Kerr around that she didn't even feel the pain when the nurse administrated the injection.

After that, Kerr took out some congee and insisted on feeding her.

Instead of protesting, she opened her mouth obediently, but she could feel her cheeks burning.

This was the first time since she had become an adult that someone was feeding her.

She just wanted to get it over with as soon as possible, so she could not help but chew faster without caring about how she would look.

In the past, as the eldest daughter of the Ning family, she had always had someone to make sure that she was taken care of. But later, in Manhattan, she had to look after herself and did part-time jobs while studying.

After that, once Jay was born, she had spent most of her time taking care of him and had often skipped lunch. It was not until Jay had become a little older that he had begun to take care of her instead.

"Take your time. No one's going to take your food away," Kerr teased.

The truth was, Nicole hadn't had any food last night, so the delicious food made her mouth water. She didn't care about her image as a lady, and anyway, she didn't want to make a good impression on Kerr.

In fact, she wouldn't be at peace until Kerr lost interest in her. Little did she know that her plan would horribly backfire...

Kerr was watching Nicole's behavior with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

Right now, she wasn't wearing any make-up, and she still looked sluggish. Moreover, she didn't even attempt to put up a facade in front of him, which was something he had never seen before. Usually, people would be on their best behavior to impress him.

"Mommy, does it taste good?" As soon as Jay entered the room, he saw Uncle Gu feeding his mom, and a satisfied smile emerged on his face.

'It seems that Uncle Gu takes good care of Mommy, ' he thought to himself.

"It's not bad. Have you eaten yet?"

Nicole asked after looking up at Jay and swallowing the congee in her mouth.

"Of course not."

Jay walked to the bedside and started to climb onto the bed on his own.

This bed was a little taller than a common one, so it was a challenge for a kid like Jay to climb.

Kerr immediately put the spoon he was holding back into the bowl and gently placed his free hand on Jay's back to make sure that he didn't fall.

He didn't try to lift the boy up, and instead just let him climb onto the bed on his own. Although he hadn't spent a long time with Jay, he knew that he liked being independent.

However, Jay had been expecting Kerr to support him and directly sat in his arms before looking up at him with innocence.

"Uncle Gu, I want to eat, too," he said in an adorable voice.

Of course, Jay was first and foremost a child.

Or, it seemed that since the day he had met Kerr, he had become more and more like a child.

Kerr took a spoonful of congee and fed it to Jay.

"Yummy, yummy!"

Jay cried, clapping his small hands as if he had received a great surprise.
