The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 287

Kerr would never allow danger to reach Nicole. When Lily told them that she wanted to leave, she seemed very determined. That was why Kerr's suspicions were raised.

In recent days they had been away from the Gu Group, but Lily had remained during their absence. That meant that Lily had spent a lot of time with Moore. Who could be sure what influence Moore wielded over Lily? People could change in unpredictable ways, after all.

So Kerr always had to be on high alert.

Lily lowered her head. "I didn't want to give up my job here, which I worked so hard for, so I chose to stay. I was disappointed to find that you had already gone away when I returned to the company.

But I knew that the Gu Group is important to you, so I chose to stay here because I was confident that you would eventually come back." Lily tried her best to sound convincing in front of Kerr.

Lily knew that she was a terrible liar, but she had no other choice. She avoided Kerr‘s eyes as she told him that story.

"Has Moore bothered you since you came back here?" Kerr knew perfectly well what kind of determined and ambitious man Moore was.

Lily shook her head. "Moore has been completely focused on building up his position in the company, so he never paid any attention to me. What's more, I've got what I wanted from him.

We are over. He has no reason to make trouble for me." In her heart, how Lily wished that it was true.

Kerr looked at Jared and nodded. Then Jared went up to Lily, gave her the gift box and a car key, and said, "Drive my car and take this to the villa."

Lily nodded to Jared, carefully avoiding Kerr's eyes. She turned around and was about to leave the office when she heard Kerr's voice again. "I hope you will live up to Nicole's trust,"

Kerr reminded Lily.

Since he knew that Nicole regarded Lily as her close friend, he wanted to give Lily a chance. What was more, if it weren't for Lily's goodwill, he might have lost his child with Nicole before their wedding.

But he still suspected that Lily would be compromised by Moore once again.

Lily paused and nodded her head.

He looked at Lily as she walked away and ordered grimly, "Tell Kim to follow her. Inform me immediately if something goes wrong." Kerr truly hoped that he was just overthinking it.

Not long afterward, when Kerr carried Nicole in his arms, he felt so lucky that he had made the right decision at that time.

With tears running down her face, Lily drove Jared's car and headed to Kerr's villa. She knew that even Nicole wouldn't be able to help her. She could only rely on herself.

She felt sincerely sorry for Nicole and regretful about what she was doing.

When the car stopped at the gate of the villa, the gate opened for her automatically. Lily parked the car and walked into the villa.

"Hi, Nicole." Nicole was sitting on the sofa with a book in her hands. Lily was surprised to see the bulge on her belly.

"Lily, what are you doing here?" Nicole wanted to stand up, but her body was so heavy that it took her a few seconds to get to her feet.
