The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 183

Moore looked at Nicole and grinned. "Miss Ning, so you mean that you're here on behalf of my brother. If something goes wrong, it's him who is responsible, isn't it?"

If Nicole dared to make such a promise, this would be a perfect opportunity for Moore. As long as she replaced Kerr, his brother would eventually pay for her arrogance.

The moment Nicole heard Moore's question, she took a deep breath and met his gaze. "Yes. I'm here on Kerr's behalf, and I'll be responsible for my actions.

I give my word to everyone here that each decision I make in the Gu Group will be under Kerr's name. If there is any problem, I'll also be responsible for it."

Nicole knew that this was the answer everyone wanted to hear and, now that she said it, there was no turning back. Success or failure, either could be ahead of her. However, staring at each director in the room, she didn't feel nervous at all.

In fact, she was the only one who was aware that every word she said meant that Kerr would take over the Gu Group again in the future.

Meanwhile, Jared stood beside Nicole, watching the events unfold in front of him. He knew she didn't have another option but to make that guarantee.

Moore, on the other hand, was satisfied to get the answer he wanted. Sitting down, he casually looked at Nicole without saying a word. The board members noticed his reaction and also took their seats with no further objections.

Nicole then put the documents she had prepared at home over the table, and Jared picked them up as he passed them to everyone present in the room.

The morning went by quickly afterward. Nicole's sharp memory and analysis surprised all the board members. Naturally, they didn't have any doubts and kept their mouths shut.

As for the problems the Gu Group had been facing recently, Nicole gave her ideas and prospects for improvement before ending the meeting.

Once she headed back to Kerr's office, she sat down, feeling a little tired. That meeting was just the beginning. She knew that the future held a much harder task waiting for her.

"Miss Ning, are you okay?" Noticing that she looked weary, Jared couldn't help but worry about her.

Since what happened to Kerr, Nicole hadn't rested much, not to mention that she was also pregnant.

Nicole nodded slightly, meaning that she was fine.

She was thinking about the many projects that required her to visit their sites, but she quickly gave up the idea in order to preserve her baby.

Knock, knock, knock! With a sudden knock on the door, Nicole raised her head and said, "Come in."

Lily heard Nicole's voice from the outside and took a deep breath before she gathered the courage to open the door. When her eyes met with Nicole's, she lowered her head respectfully.

"Lily, what's up?"

Lily was a simple girl who was very easy to read. Noticing her hesitation, Nicole could tell that she was hiding something.

"Nicole, I heard that you'll be acting as the CEO temporarily. Do you still remember the offer you made earlier?" Lily knew that Nicole had the power now to transfer her from Moore.

But she also realized that he must have some ulterior motives for allowing her to be by Nicole's side at this moment. Nevertheless, Lily was glad to leave Moore for the time being.

Nicole smiled at Lily but wondered when she became so shy. It was still fresh on Nicole's memory every time she and Lily spent together chatting about Kerr. Yet now, the girl could barely look her in the eye.

"Uh huh. I'll do it right away if you like."

In fact, Nicole didn't have many people whom she could trust around the Gu Group. Therefore, she hoped that Lily could help her.
