The Reunion After Seven Years

"Haven't we reached an agreement, Jay? You need to sleep alone tonight,"

Nicole gently reminded Jay as her parenting style did not include compromise. Although she openly doted on him, she still refused to indulge him.

"This is the last night, I promise,"

Jay softly replied while cleverly putting on his innocent look. He played this trump card of his very well that no one had the heart to decline what he wanted.

Seeing the way how Jay looked, Nicole couldn't bear to reject him. So she finally gave in after pausing briefly. "You must keep your words!" Nicole could only agree and made room for him. She looked helpless.

Jay inwardly squealed in glee but nodded with a serious expression on his little face. And still, with a happy heart, he hurriedly walked towards the bed.

Kerr instantly became the focus of the crowd the moment he showed up. Though he was only wearing a black suit, a dark purple shirt, and a tie of the same color, which Nicole picked for him, he looked quite striking.

He was used to keeping a low profile, but even then, his fame and status still attracted lots of people's attention as soon as he stepped into the room.

While his face remained impassive, Kerr went straight to the sofa and settled himself down. Crossing his legs, he seemed like he was waiting for someone.

Avery was stunned as she observed that Kerr was alone. She hastily made her way to where he was, but Jared quickly stopped her.

"Where is Nicole? Didn't Nicole come?" Avery asked anxiously. She was part of the Lin Group, the host of the party.

Hearing Avery‘s voice, Kerr undoubtedly recognized her. He swiftly glanced at Jared, hinting him that there was no need to stop her. He then shifted his gaze at Avery, acknowledging her, "Miss Lin, Nicole is pregnant. She stays at home to rest. If you are free, you can drop by to see her."

Avery dearly, so her presence would mean anything to Nicole and could make her more than happy. With this
