The Reunion After Seven Years Chapter 124 How Much Is He Worth

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."

The smile on Kelvin's lips gradually disappeared. The woman was determined, and she was willing to
play with fire if she had to.

"I appreciate the offer, but I'll have to decline. Don't worry. Should Kerr wake up one day and decide
that he doesn't want to be with me anymore, I'll leave without a fight.



Until then, I'll be right by his side. I think we're done here. I'm leaving."

Nicole rose and started showing herself out, but the man in black behind her stood in her way.

"You're not leaving this villa that easily, Miss Ning.

It amazes me how a woman of your status and background dares to dream of marrying into such an
illustrious clan like the Gu family. You're like a sparrow that's trying to become a phoenix."

Kelvin's face grew serious, and his tone was no longer polite.

Nicole clenched her fist at Kelvin's last remark.

She had never felt inferior because of her family background, but today, she felt ridiculously belittled.

"You know, I can't imagine growing up in such a cold family where my dreams and aspirations are
ignored.

I can't imagine coming from a family with a prestigious background, supreme power, and endless
wealth but no freedom of choice.

I love Kerr, but I feel sorry for him for having such an unloving family."

It was true. Nicole felt sorry for Kerr for growing up in such an environment. He might be rich, but
money could not buy true love and affection.

No wonder Kerr was always cold to others. He did not know how to love, but he was trying with Nicole
now. She would not let him down.

"Careful now, Miss Ning. Do you think you can slander the Gu family and get away with it? Calling the
Gu family 'unloving' is enough to warrant your death."



Kelvin stood up and pinned Nicole with his menacing stare.

He understood Nicole's youth and impulsiveness, but he had to remind her about the people she was
challenging.

"There are only two ways for us to solve this problem, Miss Ning. You either take the check and cut ties
with the young master, or you disappear from the face of the planet with your son Jay."

Kelvin tossed a black pistol on the table.

The loud clap of the drop startled Nicole. Setting her gaze on Kelvin, she took a deep breath, walked to
the table, and picked up the check.

"I need three days to get my affairs in order. I don't want to do things sloppily."

Nicole held the check in her hands.

"I can only give you two days. Two days from now, I will send a car to pick you and Jay up. I hope you
hold up your end of the deal. You will certainly regret it if you don't and in the most painful way possible.
I can make sure of that.

I don't compromise with deal breakers," Kelvin warned.

"Fine."

With a grim face, Nicole left the villa. The same car that picked her up from the hospital was the same
car that took her back.

Watching the car drive away, Nicole sighed with relief, but she could not completely
relax.
