The Reunion After Seven Years

Still feeling downcast, Ken lowered his head and leaned against the wall. He refused to meet Kerr's piercing gaze.

"My father is serious this time. If I don't marry the daughter of the Wen family, he will kick me out of the Qin family. Now he has suspended all the assets in my account,"

he gloomily confided. It never occurred to him that the situation would turn rather serious this time. Considering his father's firm attitude, he did not want to compromise at all. His father had left him with no other choice. After all, marriage was an important event in a person's life.

He wouldn't marry a person he didn't like. It was not his thing. He would preferably go roaming alone, which was much better than being bothered by a nuisance all day long.

"What's your plan?"

Kerr inquired. There was a fleeting and complicated emotion in his eyes when he learned his predicament. But sadly, Ken couldn't disobey his father's will. So even though he sympathized with him, he couldn't help him against his father's will.

Ken instantly raised his head and looked at him with total disbelief.

"Really? Bro, don't you want to help me?"

Ken had anticipated that Kerr would offer to support him without hesitation, but with the way he acted now, it was apparent that he didn't care about him.

"It's your own business,"

Kerr uttered dismissively before turning around and headed into the ward, leaving Ken feeling all alone on the same spot.

When he emerged from the door outside, he observed how Nicole struggled with the food in front of her. She was munching her food in a way too fast that clearly showed she was starving.

He suddenly felt regretful, thinking it was his fault that he forgot to remind her to grab some breakfast before heading for work.

But when he recalled what transpired that morning, he couldn't help pulling a long face.

"I'm so full..."

Nicole touched her round belly, feeling hugely satisfied. Her face showed she was pleased as she mulled over that there was nothing in the world that can't be solved by food.
