The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 270

Kerr didn't look at Nicole. He just held her in his arms and touched her belly with his hand. "What if I said she didn't just want to talk business with me, but she also fell in love with me at first sight?"

As he had become Nicole’s husband, he wouldn't give any other woman a chance. He was a conscientious man.

"Does Lisa Xue love you?" Nicole was a little surprised, and Ben's subtle eyes appeared in her mind.

"How do you know her name is Lisa Xue?" Kerr asked, looking at her. "Where did you and Jay go?" Something seemed to be wrong, so Kerr frowned slightly.

"I went to the Xue family's house. Ben Xue, Lisa's elder brother, invited me and Jay to his daughter's birthday party. Callie is Ben‘s daughter, and Jay’s friend," Nicole said concisely.

However, she had other thoughts in her mind. This matter wasn't as simple as she thought.

When Kerr heard that, he started to wonder about Ben's identity. "Let's go back to our hotel room first." Kerr didn't voice out his doubts about Ben, because he didn't want her to worry.

It had been a long day, and Nicole was a little tired. But as she thought back to her visit with the Xue family, she couldn't relax. Everything seemed so strange, and she seemed to have seen the Xue family manor in her dreams.

It was hard for her to remember anything clearly. It all seemed so vague to her.

As soon as they reached the door of their hotel room, Harley was just walking out of his room. "You're finally back! Thank God. If anything had happened to you, I don't know what I would do!"

Harley just felt lucky. If something bad happened to Nicole, he didn't know how he could face Kerr.

Nicole smiled and stuck out her tongue at Kerr, who was beside her. "I'm sorry to worry you, Harley." Nicole knew that Harley would feel sorry for Kerr.

Harley had promised Kerr to protect her, so what she did today undoubtedly put Harley in a difficult situation.

"As long as you're fine, I'm fine." Harley waved to Nicole. With a light smile, Harley turned to Kerr and said, "But you'd better protect your woman yourself.

If she makes a mistake, I can neither beat her nor scold her." With these words, Harley couldn't help shaking his head.

Without looking at Harley, Kerr fixed his eyes on Nicole. His eyes were full of warmth. "Even I don't have the heart to beat or scold my woman. How dare you?"

His words brought a blush to Nicole's face.

"That's enough. Don't show off your love in front of me. By the way, where is Jay?" Harley asked curiously.

Nicole widened her eyes in shock. "What did you say? Didn't you see him? He should've come back to his room." Nicole pushed open the door of Jay‘s room.

"Jay?" Nicole called out and searched every corner of the room, but Jay was nowhere to be found. She became anxious.

"Don't be nervous. Maybe Jay went to eat something because he was hungry." Kerr followed behind her and put his hand on her shoulder, fearing that she might stumble from anxiety.

He tried to console his wife, while he winked at Harley who was beside him.

The latter immediately took the hint, and turned away to get the hotel's surveillance video.

Nicole walked forward in a daze, as if she had become a soulless puppet.
