The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 32

As a result, Nicole felt confident and capable enough of working in the Gu Group. However, she would only still work in this company as long as Kerr didn't harass her.

She admitted that he was a great leader though, but he lacked goodness as a man. On the other hand, it was important to acknowledge that both the company's mission and the chance to train new talents were exactly what she wanted to work on.

"So according to what it has been planned, you will be in charge now of the cooperation's rearrangement. I'll send someone to notify the Chu Group to check and confirm the new details as soon as I can."

Despite her fully commitment to her son Jay which was totally understandable, she would still give the best of her performance to surpass the work's requirements. Nicole's seriousness in this matter caused Kerr to look at her with appreciation in his eyes.

Kerr could sense Nicole's untainted talent in work. He felt lucky that he had hired her with a high salary. If the circumstances had been different back then, he would've never found such a smart and interesting woman as her.

"Alright, I think I shall start right now."

Right after she closed her folder and stood up, Kerr's words vibrated in her ears as she was about to cross the door.

"Wait, I need to tell you something that you may not know."

He hesitated a bit as he said that. It seemed that he wasn't sure if it was a good idea to tell her what he wanted to say.

Nicole turned around and looked at Kerr with confusing eyes.

"It's just...It's Sunny. She is my new secretary."

Kerr wasn't the type of person who would explain anything to anyone. But he felt that he needed to tell Nicole who Sunny was because he sensed that there was a misunderstanding between them this morning.

This was rarely the first time that he was worried about what others might think of him. He just didn't want Nicole to misinterpret him.

"Say again?"

It seemed that she couldn't really understand what he meant, and she clearly had no clue who that Sunny girl was.

He decided to clarify it to her clearly as he stood up and walked towards her with honesty.

"The woman that you met in the underground parking lot this morning is my new secretary, whose family is the He family. They've been friends with the Gu family for a long time."

Not until she heard his words did she realize that he was explaining what happened this morning. She raised her right hand and covered her mouth as she was still confused that why he had to point out who the girl was.

"Why are you stressing yourself out to explain this to me, Mr. Gu? Now that I think about it, you should go and clarify to her that I'm just your subordinate. In that case, Miss He won't misunderstand us."

A sentiment of relief and peace unconsciously seemed to emerge inside of Nicole after hearing what Kerr said to her.

As she wasn't expecting this unusual moment, she didn't know how to react and felt a bit nervous. She thought to herself that she shouldn't care about Kerr, but that was a hard task for her though.

"But I believe that Sunny won't eventually misunderstand us. Her speculation isn't wrong... about us."

He really wanted to speak out the feelings and thoughts that crossed his mind in that moment, as he stepped forward and held her hand. He noticed that she was flustered because of the sweat on her palm.

"If there isn't anything else that either me or you can contribute with, then I'll take off now to organize the partnership plan that you assigned me to work on."

She didn't let Kerr say one more thing as she was so done talking to him. She got rid of his hand easily due to the sweaty palm and left the office.

He felt a bit bothered by the situation, but a devious smile loomed on his face as he watched her vanishing.

He was completely sure that she would fall in love with him someday. However, he wasn't even desperate to achieve his goal; he learned to be patient throughout the years. Even if all of a sudden she disappeared from the map, he would still find her.
