The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 138

At the Gu Group

Sitting in the CEO's office and looking at the documents Jared had prepared, Kerr's face remained aloof. Suddenly, his mobile phone rang, interrupting his train of thoughts.

"What is it?"

Upon hearing Harley's message, Kerr was taken aback. He jumped up and rushed towards the door.

"Text me the address," he ordered.

Then, Kerr immediately hung up the phone and drove his car at high speeds all the way to the cafe.

Inside the coffee shop, Nicole sat opposite Freya and gazed at her curiously.

"How do you know Kerr?"

Freya took up the small spoon in her coffee cup and stirred the dark liquid gently. Her attitude was casual, but she was studying Nicole's reactions.

"I was appointed by the human resources department of the Gu Group. During my work as director of the project department, I met Kerr."

Nicole didn't breathe a word of what had happened seven years ago. After all, she didn't know everything about it, and she hadn't discussed it with Kerr either.

"He likes you very much. How about you?"

Freya raised her head and looked at Nicole calmly, but her words were laced with meaning.

With a firmness deep inside her eyes, Nicole made eye contact with Freya.

"I love Kerr. I had hesitated at first. I am well aware of the differences between me and Kerr. Though we are not from the same world, we couldn't avoid our love in the end."

This was the most dominating thought in her heart, and also the most truthful. She did not want to hide it from Freya. Even if Kerr had been here, she would have said it exactly the same way.

Even though she knew that Kerr's mother being here was with the intent to force her to leave Kerr, she still planned to work hard. After all, they had gotten together because of love.

"Love? How much do you think you love him? How much do you believe that he loves you?"

Freya had never experienced the kind of emotion that Nicole just mentioned. All her instincts refused to believe her. Perhaps it was because she had witnessed so many conflicts of interest, she had become accustomed to the world's indifference.

"We have not been together for long yet. So, I can't say how much I love him. However, I know that as long as he still loves me, I will stay by his side. No one can make me give up on him, except for him."

This was what Nicole had pledged to Kerr. They were joined by their love, so there was only one reason that could ever separate them, which was if they no longer loved each other.

"You are brave."

Freya could see the courage and firmness in Nicole's eyes. She remained calm as she faced Freya, and she seemed more honest than other girls. Even Sunny who had known her for many years still hid many things when she faced her.

"So, that's why the great Mrs. Gu wanted to see me?"

Nicole felt strange when she saw the smile curving on Freya's face.

It gave her a feeling that Freya was not here to make her leave Kerr.

"I'm just curious about what kind of girl Kerr likes. Do you have a son?"

Although the information she had collected was very specific and detailed, Freya still wanted to hear it from Nicole's own lips.

"Yes, I do. He's six years old. I'm sorry that I can't share the truth with you. Mrs. Gu, I don't want to lie to you, so please don't question me about Jay's father."
