The Reunion After Seven Years

Making her way to the big tree, Nicole sat beside Kerr and snuggled up to him.

She couldn't tell what exactly happened, if it was all an illusion or not, but she could sense his sadness even though he was smiling. Nonetheless, looking at him now, she was relieved to find his face washed with calmness.

Traces of the cold, powerful man was nowhere to be found, rather she was in the arms of the man she loved.

He placed his arm around Nicole's shoulder and gently kissed her hair.

"Aren't you curious about it?"

From how he knew Nicole, he found it quite odd that she was so quiet by his side. It was a rare sight.

"You will tell me when you're ready."

With a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, Nicole spoke in a firm tone. Although she was very curious, she didn't want to force Kerr to tell her about his past.

"It's not something that I want to share it with you. It's not a pleasant story. I don't want to scare you away."

He wanted to avoid talking about what happened in his past.

He knew that Nicole had a simple life, and the background of his family was too complicated for her. He was worried that she might get scared off. Because of that all he wanted was to decrease Nicole's involvement in his past life.

With the incident last night, the Gu family was bound to investigate the people around him.

"Alright, then you should at least tell me a good story."

She decided not to prod on the topic again.
