Chapter 150 I'll Go With You
Chapter 150 I'll Go With You
"No matter what happens, I'll be with you."
Kerr knew what Nicole was thinking, so before she could say it, he made her a promise.
Despite everyone's intent to separate them, Kerr still wouldn't let go of Nicole's hand.
Nicole nodded, thinking that maybe she should let Kerr take the lead for her.
"I told you the truth, Mr. Gu. You must believe me. It's all this woman's fault. I'm going to divorce her as soon as I can!"
To make his point clear, Gregory unexpectedly pushed Fiona to the ground. And as if she meant nothing to him, he looked down at his embarrassed wife on the floor with his eyes full of contempt.
"Ah!"
Pale, Fiona screamed in pain. Due to the fall, her high heels caused her to sprain an ankle.
"I must have been blind when I married you, Gregory. How many times have you asked me to go to bed with a potential investor to the Song Group? Or sent me to have drinks with them whenever you needed a project? But now that the company is shut down and you don't need me anymore, you decide to ditch me like this?
Don't you have a conscience?"
Fiona's voice was filled with sorrow as she pointed at Gregory.
Nicole sighed in silence while watching the scene. It was Gregory and Fiona's own fault that they had come this low. Nicole was no saint and had no intention of forgiving those who had hurt her.
Especially because they almost hurt Jay in the process of getting to her. For this alone, she would never forgive them.
"Jared, take them out. I don't want to see these two ever again unless they decide to tell me what I want to know. Then I might change my mind."
People like Gregory Song weren't worth a second of Kerr's time and attention. NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
"Yes, Master. I understand."
Jared walked to Gregory. But before he could show him and Fiona their way out, Kerr spoke again.
"Today, I'll let everyone know that Jay is my son. If anyone dares to look at him or Nicole cross-eyed, I'll show them no mercy."
For many years, Kerr hadn't shown such a ruthless side of him, but people knew better than to lay a hand on whoever he had taken under his wings.
Yet now, in front of everyone, Kerr wanted to assert that he wouldn't tolerate any offense concerning Nicole and Jay.
Kerr's words, of course, had made Gregory immediately restless. He knew how vicious the other man could be.
"Mr. Gu, I'm telling you the truth. Please, let me go. I won't do it again. Please, help me, Nicole, for the sake of our past relationship!"
Hoping that Nicole would plead for him, Gregory took a step forward and attempted to get near her and Kerr. But Jared was quicker to hold him still.
Nicole could only feel embarrassed for Gregory. She never expected he would be so shameless to the point of begging her for forgiveness just a few minutes after he slandered her so determinedly.
She didn't bother to acknowledge him, though. This kind of person wasn't worthy of her thoughts, even less of her words.
"How dare you call her Nicole?"
Enraged, Kerr's voice grew unusually cold the moment he heard Gregory mention his past with Nicole.
Jared took in his boss's words and immediately punched Gregory in the face. With a thin line of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, he fell by his wife's side on the ground.
Next, Jared asked his men to take Gregory Song and Fiona Zhao out of the room.
"Alright, alright. Now that this problem has been settled, Kerr, why don't you come back home with us?"
Freya wanted to make sure that Kerr was paying attention to the existence of Moore, but his eyes were solemnly fixed on Nicole. She couldn't help but worry that Nicole might be a bad influence on him.
After all, now Kerr had a weakness, which Moore didn't.
At that moment, Nicole stood up with a smile. She naturally understood that Freya's invitation extended only to Kerr, not her and Jay.
In fact, she didn't care much about whether the Gu family would acknowledge her or not. It was just Jay who concerned her. As a child of the Gu family, he wasn't getting much attention from them. And this caused her to feel a little disappointed.
"Kerr, I'm heading back with Jay then."
She didn't want to make Kerr uncomfortable, nor actively please the Gu family. But now that she had no doubts about the love Kerr felt for her, she knew that she would have to be patient if she wanted to be with him.
Although she was mentally ready to face whatever was ahead of them, her body was tired for the moment.
"I'll go with you."
Kerr picked Jay up. He had never thought of leaving them.
Staring at Kerr's resolute expression, Freya sighed and walked to Nicole before she unwillingly said,
"Miss Ning, you can come with us too."
She understood that if Nicole didn't go back with them, maybe Kerr would never come over their house again. And since Kerr was her only son, she wanted to make him their family's only heir.
However, Nicole knew that Freya's invitation wasn't sincere. Therefore, she rejected her without hesitation.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Gu. It's already late, and Jay needs to rest, so I'll have to get going now. But I promise to come by for a visit another day."
Nicole reached out, trying to take Jay from Kerr, but he didn't let her.
Instead, he put an arm around her shoulders and looked at her gently, completely ignoring his mother's request.
"Let's go home."
For Kerr, his home was wherever there were Nicole and Jay. He had never felt the warmth of a family before. But today, with his own little family, he intended to leave that building and cherish every second he had with them.
Seeing Kerr's determination to stand beside her, comforted Nicole. But she couldn't let him go with her.
Frankly, it was enough for her to know that Kerr cared about her feelings that much. Hence, although Freya didn't like her, Nicole had to admit she was right about Kerr having to be with the Gu family now.
There was no way she would stand still and allow Kerr to lose everything that belonged to him because of her.
"Don't worry, I won't run away. I'll be waiting for you at home. You can go back to the Gu family residence today."
