The Reunion After Seven Years

Kerr told Jay seriously as if enforcing a new rule.

It was his turn now to sleep in the same bed as Nicole.

"You're a grownup. Why can you sleep in the same bed as Mommy and I can't?"

Jay crossed his arms on his chest and looked at Kerr sternly as if challenging him to answer his question directly.

"If I don't sleep in the same bed as your mommy, how will you have a little brother or sister?"

Kerr reached for a night robe and put it on. He picked up Jay and walked to the bathroom.

"Then when will I have a little brother or sister?"

Although Jay was a bit disappointed that he could not sleep beside his mother anymore, the thought of having a little brother or sister soon filled his heart with excited joy.

He could show him or her off to Callie who also had a brother. He wondered if his future little sister would be as lovely as Callie.

"Soon."

Nicole overheard Kerr and Jay's conversation in the bathroom and felt inexplicably happy.

This was what she wanted.

Nicole slipped out of bed and put on some clothes. She was making the bed when someone knocked on the door.

"Come in. It's open."

Nicole tied her long hair into a ponytail.

"Your breakfast, Director Ning."

Jared walked in and set the food box on the table. He felt relieved by Kerr's absence.

"Thank you, Jared. I'm sorry to have bothered you during the past few days."

Nicole helped Jared pour the porridge into a bowl.

"You're always welcome, Director Ning."
