The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 44

"Great!"

Nicole looked at the bartender with a hazy look on her face.

She'd already had a lot to drink, and by now, her head was starting to spin. As she looked at the bartender's quick movements, she felt even dizzier.

With her body feeling hot, Nicole took off her coat to reveal a black form-fitting dress that was really nothing more than a normal business attire.

But at a certain time, at a certain place, that kind of dress held a different kind of seduction.

When Kerr saw the condition Nicole was in, he strode towards her sullenly.

Damn it! He didn't know that Nicole could be so sexy and tempting too.

Nicole squinted at the noisy music, entirely unaware of the danger.

Meanwhile, when the bar manager in the monitoring room saw Kerr entering the bar, he couldn't help but feel stunned. He quickly got over his shock and immediately went out to receive him in person.

"Welcome, Mr. Gu! Why didn't you tell me you were coming in advance? I could have prepared a VIP room for you."

At the sound of the manager's hospitable words, Kerr was forced to stop just a short distance from Nicole. His eyes narrowed slightly.

Just then, a bold man approached Nicole.

Gregory, who had been fooling around with a group of his bad friends, inadvertently caught a glimpse of a familiar figure at the bar counter. When he realized who it was, his eyes brightened and he immediately started walking towards the bar counter with a wine glass in his hand.

"Long time no see, Nicole."

Hearing a familiar voice, Nicole turned around and saw Gregory Song and his silhouette standing right in front of her.

'Why are there two bastards in front of me?' Nicole thought to herself.

Nicole shook her head, but there were still two Gregorys standing in front of her.

At the sight of the puzzled expression on Nicole's face, Gregory was delighted. It was a pity that he did not get Nicole when he was with her seven years ago. How could he let such a great opportunity pass him by?

"You are drunk, Nicole. Let me drive you home."

Gregory reached out his hand to help her get up, but before he could even touch her, his wrist was gripped by someone else's strong hand. He looked up to see whose hand it was, and his eyes widened at the sight of the person in front of him.

Suddenly, he felt a dull pain in his arm, and the blood all over his body seemed to rush in the opposite direction. Gregory felt a cold shiver run up his body.

"Ke— Mr. Gu."

Gregory was still quite traumatized from the last time he encountered Kerr. And now, when he saw him in person again, he felt a sharp pain shoot up his arm.

"You want me to break your other hand?"

Kerr glared at Gregory fiercely and refused to loosen his grip on him at all. At that moment, he looked extremely dangerous.

It seemed to him that what he did last time wasn't enough to teach Gregory a lesson. He actually didn't think that Gregory would even dare to stare at Nicole like this after that.

"It's not like that... No. I was just about to inform you of this. I thought it would be more appropriate for you to drive Nicole home, Mr. Gu."

When faced with a choice between Nicole and his life, Gregory chose to save his life without hesitation. Even though he very much wanted to get Nicole, there was no way he was going against Kerr this time. Besides, he would still have another chance in the future.

After all, he believed that one day, Kerr would stop looking after Nicole. He could even lose interest in her in just a few days.

After hearing what Gregory had to say, Kerr slowly loosened his grip on him.

Although there wasn't a bone in Kerr's body that believed what the jerk said, it was enough for him to know that Gregory was afraid of him. As he looked at Gregory's trembling body, Kerr knew that the Song family would soon go bankrupt, and this jerk would have no one to rely on.

"Don't let me see you again."

Gregory seemed to get a special amnesty from his words. He turned around and ran out of the bar at once.

Nicole, on the other hand, was already lying across the counter, too drunk to even sit up straight. Her steady breath let Kerr know that she was fast asleep.

Kerr lifted his hand to tuck the hair scattered on her face behind her ear. Now that her entire face was exposed, Kerr saw that her face was now crimson red.

He took her in his arms and carried her out of the bar.

"Asshole, don't touch me..."

Nicole murmured as she felt someone touching her body. In her mind, she started thinking of Kerr's expressionless face and the way he stood so close to Sunny.

"Bastard! You are such a liar!"

Even though he said he would treat her well, he would still hug other women whenever he wanted to, and every time Nicole wanted to trust and believe him, he would always let her know the harsh reality.

But what did she expect? Of course a man like Kerr wouldn't have any sincerity. More than that, when she asked him about it in the hospital last time, he didn't give her an accurate answer. He obviously wouldn't have just one woman in his life.

As she thought about Kerr even more, she felt inexplicably sad.

Meanwhile, when Kerr heard what Nicole said, his lips curled up to form a slight smile.

"Are you talking about me? The bastard?"

While he felt a little sorry for her, he was also a little bit proud. Her words meant that he had a place in her heart.

After putting Nicole in the passenger seat of his car, Kerr took out a towel from his car's compartment and gently wiped the sweat off her forehead. By now, it was getting dark.

After making sure that Nicole was secure in the passenger seat, Kerr took out his phone and dialed Jared's number.

"Go pick up Jay and tell him that his mom is with me."

Even though he wasn't able to ask permission from Jay beforehand, Kerr had a feeling that the boy would support him anyway.

From here on out, his relationship with Nicole might become entirely different.

Kerr started the car and drove Nicole all the way to his villa.

Up until he put Nicole on the bed in his bedroom, Kerr's eyes never left her, and he felt his desire for her become stronger and stronger.

"Asshole... Why did you lie to me?"

Since her eyes were still closed, Nicole didn't realize that she had become a lamb to be slaughtered on a chopping board.

"I'm not lying to you. Be my woman. Nicole, I'll make sure you won't regret it."

As he stood on the edge of the bed, Kerr looked down at her. He untied his neck tie and took off his shirt before throwing them to the floor.

Women always went after him like a flock of birds. It was the first time he'd ever had to be so patient for a woman.

Kerr bent down and kissed Nicole on the forehead as his palm went to the hem of her dress subconsciously.

"Don't touch me. It hurts..."

She didn't want him to get any closer to her.
