The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 35

Baron decided to attack Kerr with lies. However, once he started with lies, there was no way of turning back.

The only idea that Baron had in order to make his big lie convincing was to keep using one lie after another and so on. This plan could either end up ridiculous or a complete success.

It started off pretty well since Kerr's attention was drawn to Baron.

Although Kerr looked at him with shocking eyes, he concealed it quickly.

"Say again? I couldn't quite hear you."

Just for the record, Jared never found any kind of data that was related to Jay's father. Baron had met Nicole in Manhattan and she gave birth to Jay there.

Nevertheless, Kerr thought that Nicole and Baron weren't even that close to look like a couple when he saw them, which made Kerr suspicious of Baron's statements.

"Jay is our son. He is my child. I met Nicole in Manhattan while we were still in college. Jay was never planned though, and my mother didn't like Nicole.

My mother always made sure that our marriage wasn't a reality. Me and Nicole loved each other, but she didn't want to put me in such a complicated position. So, she decided to leave me and raised Jay by her own.

This is my family affair, and I owe Nicole my life. The only thing that I wish to do now is to make it up to them after all these years. I never stopped loving Nicole. I hope you understand, Mr. Gu."

Baron looked at Kerr with guilty eyes as he narrated his family affair's fantasy to him. However, Kerr's calmed aura was like an unbreakable shield that didn't allow Baron to see through him.

He was hopeful that Kerr believed at least a huge portion of the story, even though there were many plot holes in it. He had to tell Nicole about this as soon as possible because it was obvious that Kerr's next action was to corroborate Baron's story with her.

Baron's purpose behind this idea was only to protect Nicole and Jay from the harasser. If everything turned out positive, Kerr would never molest them again.

Unfortunately, Kerr made up his mind as he noticed that Baron couldn't keep his eyes straight to look at him.

"So what? What does that have to do between me and Nicole? If you failed to marry her seven years ago, what makes you think you can succeed now? Or do you think you have seven more years to fight for it?

I'm not a man that leaves women waiting. If I had the chance to marry her right now, I'd do it."

Kerr didn't even bother himself anymore and went past Baron to walk straight to the restaurant’s entrance. As a matter of fact, Nicole was still free as long as she didn't marry anyone else.

Kerr thought to himself that it was impossible for Baron to marry Nicole since he had her waiting for him for seven years.

Kerr expected anyone to be the biological father of Jay but Baron. He inevitably felt disappointed after learning the truth. However, Kerr started to make connections between Baron's version and Nicole's version when they first met.

In the first place, Nicole mentioned that she had separated from Jay's father before Jay was born. Why couldn't he marry her before Jay's birth? Was Baron's mother the real impediment for them to marry?

Baron ran out of words for a couple of seconds, but he instantly rushed his way towards Kerr as he saw him entering the restaurant.

It would be too quick for Baron's lie to be uncovered by Kerr if he talked to Nicole now. Therefore, Baron had to make sure Kerr wouldn't ask Nicole about it now.

But it was too late for Baron when Kerr walked in the restaurant and could spot the figure he was so obsessed with. Long hair down to the waist in which her curves were covered by it as if they were shy to be seen, and smoothly straight like a calmed dark sea.

As soon as Jay realized that Kerr was at the entrance, he couldn't help but smiled at him with his shining eyes as he was sat in front of Nicole.

"Are you still hungry, Jay? What else would you like to eat?"

As Nicole was holding the menu and asked Jay what he wanted to eat, she noticed that his eyes were happily paralyzed like a kid watching cartoons. And she turned around just in time to witness the picture of Kerr standing still at the restaurant's entrance and Baron rushing in behind him.

"What are you two doing together?"

Her face gave away how shocked she was as she stood up from her seat and focused her sight straight at them.
