The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 159

In Kerr's villa

After a busy day in the kitchen, Nicole picked up the cake she baked and contemplated it. Pleased with the result, she smiled slightly.

"Mommy, you'll spoil Dad like this."

Jay stood by the kitchen's door with a frown. It seemed that all women were quite gullible. They would spend the whole day cooking for men who hadn't even married them yet.

Therefore, Jay sounded helpless, completely forgetting that the man in question might be his father.

"I don't think so. Don't you love cheese cake? Because I've made it for you."

Afraid that Jay would be jealous of Kerr, Nicole tried to appease her son as she stared at his serious face. He resembled so much to his father, Kerr.

However, Jay didn't seem to buy Nicole's words. Helplessly, he just shook his head and walked out of the kitchen.

Meanwhile, outside, Avery was approaching the villa when she spotted a postman, wandering around the front gate as if he was in some sort of dilemma. Immediately, she stopped the car.

"Can I help you?"

Avery asked, getting off her vehicle as she walked towards the man.

"Hello, I have a package for Miss Ning, but..."

The postman trailed off, looking embarrassedly at the heavily guarded villa.

"Let me handle it. I'll give it to her."

Reaching out to take the package from the man's hand, Avery squeezed it slightly. It felt like there was nothing besides a few papers in there, so she thought it shouldn't be dangerous. Afterward, she turned around and carried on to the Gu's villa.

At that moment, Vedder came up to greet her in person.

"Welcome, Miss Lin. Master has told me that you would come over. Miss Ning is baking now at the kitchen."

An hour ago, Vedder received a call from Kerr in which he was informed that Avery would stop by.

"You don't have to worry about me. I'll go and find Nicole myself. Is Jay at home?"

Avery had never been a fan of such formalities. On the contrary, she had always been unrestrained. Thus she decidedly made her way through the house by herself and intended to head straight to the kitchen. Yet as soon as she heard the clear voice of Jay in the living room, she stopped.

"Godmother!"

Jay ran to Avery and hugged her leg. His eyes glinted in surprise when he looked up at her.

"Good boy, where is your mommy?"

Avery just couldn't help rubbing Jay's head.

"She's in the kitchen." Jay pointed to the kitchen's entrance and obediently went back to the sofa and his laptop.

Avery smiled at the boy and then went straight to the kitchen. Once she went through the door, she found Nicole with flour on her apron and instantly wanted to laugh.

"Let me see, who's the cook now?"

Nicole's smile widened the moment she heard Avery's voice. Turning around, she walked to her friend and stretched out her hands to hold hers.

Noticing Nicole's flour-covered hands, Avery simply stepped back with a disgusting expression on her face.
