The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 8

Fiona could not help but frown at Gregory's words.

She was annoyed with Gregory because he was using her to do business. Since he couldn't find a better backer, she decided to help herself look for a new man.

Observing Gregory, she saw a subtle hint of interest in his eyes. She was becoming a little worried that he would fall for Nicole again. She could abandon Gregory, but it didn't mean that he could abandon her.

"I don't care whether she is useful to you or not. Take care not to go too far."

Fiona threw Gregory a warning look as she stretched out her right hand and poked him in the chest with her index finger.

"Don't worry. I love you and you are the true love of my life," Gregory said gently.

He then bent over and gave her a chaste kiss on her right cheek.

"Can she really help you? Maybe I can..."

A small but sharp light flashed and caught Fiona's attention. Behind Gregory, she suddenly noticed the back of Kerr, the CEO of the Gu Group who was lighting his cigarette with a lighter. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she pushed Gregory to the side, pulled down her neckline to expose her ample chest, and proceeded to sashay towards Kerr.

"Mr. Gu, why are you smoking here alone?"

Hearing a woman's voice, Kerr turned around. The woman was Fiona, who was also Nicole's acquaintance. He made no attempt to put out his cigarette as he looked at her with a poker face.

"What's up?" he inquired coldly.

Noticing that Kerr didn't refuse her directly, she thought that she still had a chance to win his heart. So she leaned over to him and looked at him with enchanting eyes.

"Everything is fine, Mr. Gu."

The strong stench of her perfume made Kerr instinctively take a step back, but he decided not to leave directly. He was banking on the possibility that Fiona might know something that Jared hadn't found out since she seemed to have known Nicole for many years.

"Do you know Nicole Ning?" he asked casually.

Kerr tried to play it cool but Fiona sensed that he was very interested in Nicole. Once again, her heart was filled with jealousy and bitterness. In her mind, she was calculating how she could seduce Kerr and defeat Nicole at once.

With a cunning look, she replied, "Of course! Actually, I grew up with Nicole so I know everything about her. If you are interested, I can tell you every secret I know. I will tell you everything."

Fiona looked at Kerr straight in the eyes and lifted her hand to touch his chest. It was fairly obvious that she was trying to seduce him.

Meanwhile, in the private room, Nicole was talking to Jeremy about the potential partnership between the Chu Group and Gu Group. Noticing that Kerr had not returned yet, she excused herself and went out to look for him. As soon as she walked out of the private room, she saw the face of the man she hated the most.

"Hi, Nicole. It's been a long time."

Gregory knew that Fiona was now trying to get close to Kerr. He did not mind who between Fiona and Nicole would be able to persuade Kerr to invest in his Song Group, as long as the Song Group would be saved.

As for Nicole, he did not expect to see her again. Seven years passed by without hearing about her.

In front of him, a mature Nicole was wearing a classic-fit business suit which accentuated her natural beauty and feminine charms. Her long black hair was neatly combed and flowed behind her back. She was already beautiful back then, but time seemed to be on her side when it came to beauty.

Gregory fought the urge to comb her hair with his fingers. He had always been obsessed with her long hair, and that did not change even now.

"You and Fiona are a perfect match. Even your opening remarks are the same," Nicole sighed with disgust.
