The Reunion After Seven Years

Kerr's voice drew Nicole back to reality. She wiped the tears from her eyes and turned around. She looked at him calmly, but the sorrow in her eyes could not be hidden.

"You knew about my family background from early on?"

Nicole knew that Kerr would investigate her, and that he would find out everything about her. What was more, she knew that what Kerr had done today was all to cheer her up, but she felt sorry that his effort would be in vain. She couldn't be happy no matter how she tried.

Kerr walked to her and took both her hands in his.

"I know, so I knew what you wanted. I'll give you anything you want."

He didn't know if it was his imagination, but he seemed to see more despair than happiness in Nicole's face. He didn't know what had gone wrong.

"What I want… I want my father to come back to life. I want the Ning family to remain happy. I want all the terrible things to be nothing more than a nightmare. Can you do that, Kerr?"

Nicole pulled her hands from Kerr's grasp.

She knew that it was unfair to blame Kerr. Standing in the former villa of the Ning family again and seeing that nothing had changed around her, she knew despite this that things had changed here.

No matter how powerful and influential Kerr was, it was impossible to turn back time. She was expecting of him to accomplish the impossible.

"Nicole... What's wrong?"

If he hadn't noticed how peculiar Nicole was behaving, he didn't deserve to love her at all.
