The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 124

There was no fear in Nicole‘s voice, although her heart was pounding wildly in her chest.

But she had to be brave. Otherwise, people would walk all over her. She could not afford that.

"You are indeed an unusual woman. You are fearless and calm under dire circumstances. No wonder the young master's wrapped around your finger."

Kelvin spoke calmly and invited Nicole to have a seat.

"Don't worry. I won't hurt you, but please know that if I wanted you dead, you'd be dead."

Nicole hesitated but eventually took the seat in front of Kelvin.

She knew he was serious about getting her killed if he wanted to. He had not done anything to hurt her, but Nicole was not about to let her guard down.

"The young master? Are you from the Gu family?"

Taking in the surroundings and the people in the room, Nicole immediately realized the truth.

"How clever. I guess I won't have to beat around the bush with you."

Kelvin raised his hand, and the man in black who was standing behind Nicole put the tray in his hand on the table.

"There's a blank check. Write any amount you want."

Nicole glanced at the check and then looked at Kelvin.

"I don't believe in free lunches. What do you want from me?"

All good things came with a price. Nicole had always believed that.

"Very well. Take the check and leave the young master. You can go anywhere in the world and start anew. I'll even make arrangements for you."

Kelvin believed that most people could be tempted by money. It was certainly possible that Nicole would leave with the money he was offering, and Kerr would be left heartbroken and disappointed.

But at least Jack and Kerr's father-and-son bond would remain intact.

"The Gu family sure does make enough money to throw at problems. I just have one question, though."

Nicole picked up the check from the tray. The amount line was left blank. The Gu Group was gigantic, so one blank check did not make a difference.

But Nicole did not care. She was not with Kerr for his money.

"Please. Just take it."

Kelvin flashed Nicole a somber look.

"In your opinion, how much is the CEO of the Gu Group worth? Can that number fit in this check?"

Nicole set the check back on the table and smiled scornfully. As she expected, the Gu family was once again using their money to solve everything. Unfortunately, Nicole was not interested in their money.

"You seem to have made up your mind, Miss Ning. I hope you know what you're getting yourself into."
