The Reunion After Seven Years

Chapter 216 Protect Her Pride

Last time, because Nicole found out Sunny's trick in time, she was able to be right beside Kerr after he drank the drugged wine. But this time, she was not with Kerr, and although he was back home, it was still difficult for her to be sure that he did not have sex with Sunny.

"Kerr, I really don't want to believe what Sunny said, but if you really didn't do anything, how could she have said it so affirmatively?"

She couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart.

Upon hearing Nicole's accusation, Kerr sighed and tried to hold her hand, but she immediately avoided his grasp. Even so, he refused to give up.

He stretched out his arm and pulled Nicole into a hug. No matter how hard she struggled, he did not let her go, and just gently stroked her long hair.

"I know you may be lacking a sense of security now that you're pregnant, but Nicole, I want you to believe me when I say that you are the only one I want no matter what happens or who is against us.

You're the one I want to be with. You don't need to worry about me. I want you and your baby, so I would never touch another woman.

I know I made a big mistake when I drank the wine that Sunny gave me. I should not have done that. Don't worry. I will never do that again."

Kerr knew exactly what was on Nicole's mind, so he knew what she was worried about.

Kerr's words and the soothing sound of his voice calmed her down. In hindsight, she had always been very uneasy.

Because even though she was with Kerr now, there were too many obstacles lying around. And now that she was pregnant, she had become even more uneasy. She hid all of these worries in her heart.

She did not want to put too much pressure on Kerr, so she chose to bear it all in silence. If he really betrayed her at this time, she really wouldn't be able to accept it.

"Kerr, if you really marry someone else, I will wear a wedding dress to snatch you from your new woman and ruin your wedding ceremony, then I will abandon you as well."

There was an obvious harshness in her tone.

In her heart, she knew that if that day ever came, she might not actually go and ruin his wedding, but she would definitely vanish from his world completely, and he would never find her again for the rest of his life.

When Kerr heard that, a faint smile appeared on the corners of his mouth. "You are the only one I want to marry. I won't let that happen. But if it does happen, you must come to me.

As long as you show up, I will take you away to a place where there is only the two of us."

He made a promise to Nicole.

Nicole pushed him away and glared at him. "If that day ever comes, I will leave with your children and let them find someone else to call daddy."

After saying that, she turned around and walked into the lounge. Maybe because she was pregnant, she would always feel tired, so she wanted to have a rest.

Kerr immediately followed Nicole, but she shut the door behind her mercilessly.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Nicole, let me keep you company, okay?" He gently knocked on the door, but she gave him no response at all.

Left with no choice, he had to return to his desk in despair.

Sitting in front of the computer, Kerr put his mind on business. He looked at the business plan that Nicole had worked on. She made this plan and wanted to use it for the bidding.

However, on the morning of the bidding, another company submitted their business plan first. Their plan bore a great resemblance to the one Nicole had made, so Kerr brought back Nicole's plan at once and looked through it carefully.

He knew for a fact that she wouldn't plagiarize others, so he was pretty sure that someone had tried to jeopardize her proposal on purpose.

For the time being, Kerr still didn't know who had done it. It was fortunate that he found out in time. Otherwise, Nicole would have been accused of plagiarizing others' work.

And that title would have stayed with Nicole for the rest of her life. And even though Kerr did not really intend on letting her continue working, it would have still been a blow to her pride.

He must protect Nicole at all costs.

Meanwhile, as Jared led Sunny out of the Gu Group's building, he saw Moore at the parking lot.

"Miss He, are you here for Kerr?" Moore asked after approaching Sunny.

The moment Moore saw the marks on her neck, a smug smile appeared on the corners of his lips. He knew that she was there to force Kerr to marry her.

Upon hearing Moore's voice, Sunny raised her head and looked at him. She saw the meaningful look in his eyes, and she suddenly remembered what he had said to her the day before.

"Yes, I went to see Kerr. Now, I want to visit Uncle Jack and Aunt Freya."

Sunny said these words deliberately in front of Jared. She was one hundred percent sure that he would tell Kerr about this, and she wanted Kerr to know that only she was qualified to marry him.

"What a coincidence! I'm going back there too. How about we go there together?"

He wanted to know what was on her mind. If she was not willing to help him, he didn't mind choosing another girl. But for now, Sunny was his best choice.

Seeing the look on his face, Sunny knew that he had something to say to her, so she nodded and said to Jared, "You don't need to see me off."

Without saying another word, Sunny got in Moore‘s car.

As he watched the two leaving, Jared had a feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was exactly, so he had no choice but to simply return to Kerr's office.

"Master, Miss He and Moore left for your parents’ house." There was obvious worry in Jared's eyes.

But Kerr didn't seem to care.

With the exception of Nicole and their baby, Kerr didn't care about other people at all. He just nodded and handed Nicole's business plan over to Jared.

"Go ahead and contact this company and try to figure out their intention. This was definitely not a coincidence. If you find out some background information about them, you can try to purchase the plan back."

Though he knew that this move would be risky, he was willing to give it a shot to protect Nicole's pride.
