The Reunion After Seven Years

Kelvin fell silent and lowered his head. Kerr had never made grave mistakes, but now he had clearly struck his father's last nerve.

"Vedder is downstairs, My Lord," Kelvin brought up nervously.

Jack looked at Kelvin but said nothing.

Kelvin nodded.

"I'll talk to him," he murmured.

Kelvin then turned around and left the study, shutting the door behind him. He sighed as he went downstairs to talk to Vedder who he found waiting anxiously.

"What did the lord say?"

Vedder stepped forward, almost trembling with unease.

He and Kelvin were trained together. Since they came to the Gu family house, Kelvin became Jack's assistant while Vedder became Kerr's. With that, Vedder was as in trouble as Kerr for allowing him to become close to Nicole.

"He was too enraged to say anything. We better get that woman to leave the young master as soon as possible, or we'll both get fired or worse."

Kelvin looked worried.

"I've tried talking the young master out of it, but he won't listen to me. You should try talking to him," Vedder rambled.

He had tried reasoning with Kerr before about Nicole, but it did not work.

"Fine, I'll try. Better me than the lord dealing with his son himself."

Kelvin thought that this was the only way to keep Jack and Kerr's relationship intact.

"Be careful. You have no idea how much the young master cares about Miss Ning," Vedder reminded Kelvin.

Last time he commented about Kerr and Nicole's relationship, Vedder saw the most unhappy expression on Kerr's face. If Kelvin accidentally provoked him, the consequences would be unthinkable.
