The Reunion After Seven Years

"Mr. Gu, you are the guest. Please take the menu first."

Baron pushed the menu to Kerr in a respectful manner.

Discreetly, he showed his identity clearly. It created the impression that he was a family with Nicole and Jay, and the man named Kerr was an outsider.

"Don't bother. What did Nicole order? I only want the same one,"

Kerr replied beaming before turning to look at Nicole with a devilish smile.

He treated Baron's provocation indifferently because other than he found it uninteresting, he never took it seriously. What he craved at the moment was to get what he wanted. No matter what it was or who it was.

He had been like this in the past. Now facing Nicole, he felt that it was still the same, nothing had changed.

The only difference lay in his firm determination to have her.

Nicole was slightly uneasy. Knowing Kerr staring at her intently, she felt herself blushing.

"How do you know what I ordered? Must you like it?"

she asked bluntly. 'This was weird,' she thought. She had this nagging feeling of being haunted by this man. He was like a stalker. She couldn't avoid him in the company, and even after work, she couldn't get rid of him.

Since when had she been afraid of getting along with Kerr? Imagining the way how Kerr looked at her now, it seemed like he would swallow her whole in his stomach.

Indeed, she was becoming a bundle of nerves this day.

"Even if I don't like it now, I'll try to get used to it,"

Kerr grinned, holding her gaze intently and a bit more passionately.

'What difference could it make even if Baron was really the father of Jay?' Kerr mused. While still appreciating the beauty sitting across him, he inwardly swore that Baron's being a father of Jay wouldn't deter him from liking Nicole.

"Ha-ha!"

Kerr's words, Jay felt happy that he almost couldn't suppress a giggle. He immediately covered his mouth, but still, his mother
