The Reunion After Seven Years

But Kerr knew that her lie wouldn't affect his decision whether it was a real lie or not.

Nicole avoided the eye contact with the man standing in front of her as she heard his words with a guilty conscience.

"You listened to me and believed in my words."

Nicole saw herself in a weak position since she stopped being confident towards the presence of Kerr, which made her voice turn lower and shyer for the very first time.

And of course, Kerr would take advantage of that and would kiss her since she lowered her guard.

Her heart started galloping like a horse as she felt his aura getting closer to her. Suddenly, Jay's little voice could be heard just when she was hopeless to do anything to stop Kerr.

Thanks to Jay, Nicole was able to get rid of his arms.

"Mom! There are a lot of Rubik cubes here! Can we stay tonight please?"

Although Jay noticed that there was something wrong between her mother and Kerr, he was too young to sense the weight of the situation. Therefore, he just focused on the Rubik cubes. Moreover, it was more important to find an excuse to make his mother stay here.

"Yes honey, you can play with those all the time you want."

Kerr landed his confident eyes on her as he leaned back against the wall that was behind him.

It seemed that Nicole's rejection didn't even tickle him at all.

It was Jay who helped him make Nicole stay in his villa. Little did Kerr expect at the time that it was also Jay who would take Nicole away from his villa later.

Nicole didn't feel comfortable yet and was still hesitating, but she already heard Jay's cheer.
