The Reunion After Seven Years Chapter 81 A Secret That Belonged Only To Her

Baron knew that Nicole could understand the subtle message he was trying to give her.

With an awkward smile, Nicole lowered her head and ate her steak earnestly.

She wanted to work hard, but her own boss forbade her to work for the day!

Avery felt as if their meeting was too short to make up for lost time. She had an idea. "Nicole, aren't you
feeling a little tired? Do you want to go to my place tonight? I've really missed you, and we still have a
lot to talk about."

She looked at Nicole. They hadn't seen each other for years, so she naturally had a lot to ask Nicole.
She couldn't possibly let her go so quickly.

"Sure! That sounds good to me. I've missed you a lot too. I can stay at your house tonight. We have a
lot to catch up on."

After what happened with Kerr, Nicole was glad she was away from him. She didn't know how to face
Kerr. Though Avery saved her, she was a little worried about Jay when he was with Kerr.

But she didn't have a lot of time left. She would leave with Jay after the bidding. She wanted to give the
father and son a bit of time to be with each other.

When he saw Nicole's reaction, Barron felt even more depressed.

He could sense that there must be something going on between Nicole and Kerr that he didn't know of.
If she was eager to avoid Kerr like this, it must be something big.

"I'll drive you there. I still have some business to discuss with you."

Baron wouldn't give her up so easily.



"Okay."

Nicole reluctantly agreed. The meal went on for quite a while to her, but she still didn't feel that it was
enough. They left the restaurant. Nicole walked to Baron's car, while Avery walked to hers.

On the drive over, Baron couldn't help but acknowledge the elephant in the room. "What happened
between you and Kerr?"

He followed the red Ferrari with Nicole beside him.

"It was nothing. It was just sex."

She didn't intend to lie to him. It was not like it was the first time she had slept with Kerr.

However, unlike seven years ago, she couldn't just shrug this off as if nothing happened. She could
deny it, but sleeping with Kerr again was affecting her more than it should.

"Nicole, do you know what you are doing?"

They'd known each other for years, and for the first time, Baron's gentle face darkened when he heard
Nicole's response.

He had seen through her facade, which meant that she cared about Kerr very much. It was not a wise
choice for the both of them.

His fears had come to fruition.

"I know. As I said, it was just an accident. I didn't expect it. Stop worrying. I already have an agreement
with Kerr. As soon as the bidding is over, I will bring Jay back to Manhattan and will never come back."

Maybe it was a mistake for her to come back from the beginning, but now it was time to correct it.



She refused to admit that she longed to feel Kerr's tenderness and consideration.

"It's good to know you're aware of who you're dealing with, and I understand that Kerr's identity means
a lot to you. After all, he is Jay's biological father, but you should know that he is not an ordinary
person.

There won't be just a single woman by Kerr's side, even if he gets married and has a wife. I heard that
the Gu family doesn't allow him to just focus on a woman."

Even though Kerr was her son's father, Baron wanted Nicole to realize that Kerr wasn't the right guy for
her.

"I know about that. Let's stop talking about him. Right now, I only care about what happened to the
Ning Group seven years ago."

Baron was getting into Nicole's nerves.

She was well aware that women tended to loom over Kerr, even without her friend's input. It was the
reason why she held up her barriers and was wary of falling in love with Kerr.

From now on, it was a secret that belonged only to her.

The car stopped at the door of Avery's villa. After saying goodbye to Baron, Nicole got out of it. On the
way, she had already sent a message to Jay, so she could rest a bit.

In the Gu Group

Sunny looked at Kerr sitting in his office. Kerr came to work when everyone in the company had gone
off work. Besides, she didn't see Nicole the whole day either.



Sunny was lingering in the office building. She was well aware of what happened between Kerr and
Nicole the night before. She was angry that all her effort was in vain.

With a cup of coffee in her hand,

she knocked on the door of Kerr's office.

Not waiting for an answer from Kerr, Sunny pushed the door open and entered the office with a smile.

"Kerr, have a cup of coffee please."

She put the coffee on the desk and stood in front of him.

"Is this coffee also drugged?"

Without raising his head, Kerr spoke in an indifferent tone. It was hard to tell his real emotions in his
voice.

Hearing Kerr's response, Sunny was startled, but she calmed herself down at once. She rolled her
eyes and came up with an idea.

"Don't say that, Kerr. I'm helping you. Although I like you, I know you like Nicole, but she doesn't know
how to appreciate you.

You got her because of me. You should thank me."

Sitting across from Kerr, Sunny took the opportunity.

What's done is done. He would only believe her if Kerr saw it in a way that she was helping him. Maybe
he would look at her in a new light.



"You're helping me on purpose?"

Kerr raised his head to look at Sunny.

He didn't believe that Sunny could be so generous, and he wouldn't believe it for a second that she
could turn into a kind-hearted person.

"Of course, I like you. I just want you to get what you want. I have a plan to make Nicole fall for you.
Kerr, although you have had a lot of women, you've never really understood a woman's heart. I can
help you."

Sunny knew that there had never been a woman who had made Kerr work so hard. In her eyes, Nicole
was the first and the last one. People always said that the best thing was something you couldn't get
easily.

She believed that if Kerr finally got Nicole, he would eventually lose interest in her.

"What are you even talking about?"

He was confused, yet intrigued. He didn't trust Sunny, and he could never let her take control of
everything. But if he could really get Nicole, then that would be in his favor.

"Ever heard of envy? No woman wouldn't react if the man she likes has another woman. If you go to
public with another woman, it will provoke Nicole Ning."

Sunny needed a chance, a chance to expose herself with Kerr in public. And this was her best
chance.
