The Reunion After Seven Years

Chapter 140 You Are My Heart

Before they came to that conclusion by themselves, the lives of Nicole, Kerr and Jay were already intertwined.

"I know, and, for you, I'll be extra careful from now on. Hmm... Kerr, do you think that my meeting with your mother today means that the Gu family knows about me? They are not going to accept me, right?"

Nicole had already learned the answer to that question the day before. She just didn't want to face it at the time, but now she had no other choice.

"That's their business. It has nothing to do with you and me. I want you, and I believe you want me, too, right?"

Kerr said gravely as he straightened his shirt.

"It's easier said than done. But I don't want you to get mad at your family because of me. Perhaps, one day they'll come to understand."

Nicole believed that every parent always wanted the best for their children, so she hoped that once the Gu family realized the sincerity of her heart, they would finally accept her.

Kerr didn't contradict Nicole. Although he thought she was being naive, he actually appreciated her innocence and didn't want her to change.

After all, she might be happier that way.

A few hours away from the party, Kerr decided to go back to the work he had left in the company. Before, however, he sent Nicole and Jay to the hotel where the celebration party would take place so that they could get some rest.

"Mr, Gu, everything is ready for the celebration party. We also haven't got any news from the Gu family's old house. Usually, your father won't attend this sort of event. So you can rest assured,"

Jared reported to Kerr.

"Tonight, everyone will know that Nicole is going to be my wife and the future co-owner of the Gu Group."

Nicole might not care about owning anything, but Kerr knew that openly announcing their relationship would grant her the utmost respect.

By the nightfall, Nicole changed into a long dark purple dress that Kerr had got for her. When she looked at herself in the mirror, she realized that she seemed quite regal.
