The Reunion After Seven Years

When Jared heard Kerr, he came to Bonnie and picked her up, promptly leading her to the ward.

Nicole frowned, disappointed that Kerr didn't make an effort to help Bonnie. However, she had another concern in mind, so she decided to follow Jared and see how Bonnie was doing. She only didn't count with a firm grip on her arm, holding her in place.

"You are the only woman I want to hold in my arms."

Kerr wasn't the type of man who would embrace any woman unless he had to.

His eyes never left Nicole's as he told her that. Not even the hardness on her delicate features could've intimidated him to turn away from her.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I just want to see Bonnie."

Although she would never admit it, Kerr's words caused her cheeks to flush in a light shade of pink. As she distanced herself from him and walked towards the ward, she absentmindedly put on a smile.

Before Nicole could walk into the room, Jared came out and tried to soothe her.

"There's nothing to worry about, Director Ning. Miss Bonnie Ning just got scared. She will be fine as long as she rests for a while."

Noticing the blush adorning Nicole's cheeks, Jared's face twisted with worry.

"Director Ning, is something wrong? You seem quite flushed!"

Unconsciously, Nicole brought her hands to her reddened face.

"I'm fine," she said, trying to hide her embarrassment. "Thank you, Mr. Kang."

Nicole walked by Jared and went straight to the room. Inside, she approached Bonnie and sat next to her.

With concern, Nicole inspected Bonnie's pale face and looked at the hospital gown set beside her.

Then, she gently lifted the blanket covering Bonnie's body and carefully changed her clothes.
