The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 253

If it hadn't been for him, Maggie wouldn't have suffered like this.

But Baron couldn't force himself to be with a woman he didn't love at all.

He made his way to Nicole's ward and stopped at the door. He was greeted by the sight of people laughing and joking happily, even though he knew that Jay was in a fight with Kerr.

Baron knew that Jay would only behave like this in front of people he felt truly comfortable with. It was a side of Jay that Baron had never seen before.

So Baron turned and left. He wasn't about to get in the way of Nicole's happiness.

A figure walked past the door, catching Nicole's eye. She frowned, feeling slightly suspicious and uncertain.

"There's no need to look. He already left." Kerr's voice was smooth as silk in Nicole's ear.

A ripple of shock ran through her. "Wait, do you know who I saw? Was it really Baron? Is he really in the hospital?" Nicole was curious.

"Take no notice of other men. I'm enough for you, aren't I?" Kerr raised his hand and stroked her cheek, gently turning her to face him. He was always so commanding.

Nicole took in Kerr's words with a faint, helpless smile. "Are you jealous of him? Baron's just a friend, you know."

Although they hadn't met up for a long time, Nicole was still very worried about Baron.

Jay watched the show from the sidelines. "I don't know. Men... Men are so petty." Raising his arms, he flopped back on the bed with his hands behind his head.

When he looked at Kerr, the provocation in his eyes was obvious.

"Oh, and you're not?" Kerr really didn't care what Jay had to say on the matter.

"I'm just a boy, not an old man." Jay's words held a confident swagger.

Nicole sighed and covered her face with her hands. When it came to bickering with each other, her husband and son were really something!

From then onward, Kerr made sure he had lots of free time to spend with Nicole as they waited for the baby to be born.

But in the meantime, the Gu family were far from giving up.

In the Gu family's old house

Jack sat in the living room while Kelvin gave his account of what had been going on with Kerr. As Jack listened, his face turned darker, contorting with displeasure.

"My Lord, the young master has been in the hospital with Nicole. In an attempt to protect her, he has called lots of people in to surround the woman. Our people can't get near her right now."

The truth was that Kelvin had actually asked his men to go easy on Kerr and Nicole. He had to take the man's identity into account, after all.

He was well aware that Kerr was the future heir of the Gu family.

"Lure Nicole away. Kerr was the CEO of the Gu Group. How could he become a deputy CEO of such a shady company? He has brought even more shame on his family name!"

If it hadn't been for Jack asking Kelvin to bribe the press and block all the news, the Gu family would have become a laughing stock in the whole city a long time ago.

Kelvin nodded. "I understand."
