The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 134

In an attempt to move out of the bed after their passion-filled evening, Nicole lifted the quilt. But upon realizing her state of undress, she immediately dropped the fabric and pulled it tighter around her body.

A dark shade of scarlet flashed across her face with embarrassment as she stole a glance towards the man she was quickly falling deeper for. She heard him chuckle as he shook his head with endearment at her sudden move.

"My silly girl, there's no need to hide. As I recall, I have seen every part of your body."

He shot her a quick smirk, while she buried her head under the blanket. Scooping her up in his arms, he walked towards the bathroom to let themselves take a quick shower. In no time, they've finished getting ready and headed for the hospital.

As soon as they walked through the glass entrance, Nicole heard someone quarreling at the door of the emergency room. She stopped and looked at the direction of the commotion.

A familiar voice rang through her ears as the argument continued.

Her vision was lined with the figure of Fiona Zhao being dragged by a man towards the health institution. She seemed to be fighting against her companion, struggling to break free but ultimately failed.

Following his woman's gaze, Kerr spotted Fiona.

His hold on her hand tightened, which led to Kerr asking Nicole if she wanted to aid the helpless woman.

He still remembered how the woman made things difficult for the one he cared for.

"It's not my problem, I don't want to get involved."

Nicole shook her head calmly and held Kerr's hand, walking towards Jay's ward.

She wasn't a saint. There were things that she could never tolerate and what happened in the past was one of them. She chose to let go of what happened before, but befriending Fiona was out of the picture. It was better to go their separate ways.

In the emergency room, Fiona was shoved on a chair by the man, bloodstains marred the dress she wore.

"Doctor, please examine this woman. I need to know if she's pregnant."

The man looked at the doctor, with his tone laced with anxiousness.

"Sir, this isn't a medical emergency situation. Please proceed to the outpatient department to help you with your problem."

The doctor gestured to the woman and suggested their supposed course of action, looking indifferent towards the man who barged into his station.

"Please doctor, this is a matter of utmost urgency, your help would be highly appreciated."

With the pitiful look in his eyes, the doctor sighed in defeat and led them to an examination room. As soon as the man headed for the cashier, Fiona took her chance, broke free from his hand and ran out of the hospital.

Looking around for her options of escape, Fiona reached out, opened a private car parking at the gate of the hospital and immediately got in. Turning to see if the man followed her, she gradually felt relieved when she found him running towards the opposite direction of her location.

She heaved a sigh of relief and acknowledged the woman whose car she suddenly entered.

"I'm sorry, I seem to have entered the wrong car."

Fiona offered a simple apology and moved to exit the vehicle but stopped after she heard the woman's voice behind her.

"It must be fate that you entered this particular car. Miss Zhao, would you be interested in having a quick chat?"

'What a coincidence this is, Fiona Zhao arriving at my door, literally! God must be giving me a chance,' Sunny thought, having been troubled by the fact that no one would help her.

Fiona withdrew her hand from the door handle and turned around to look at the woman. She was dressed elegantly in designer clothes and the diamond on her neck was shining.

She could tell that this woman came from a wealthy family.

"Do you know me?"

She didn't remember the woman in front of her, but it was obvious that the affluent lady knew her.

"Of course I do. You are Fiona Zhao, the fiancee of the former heir of the Song Group, Gregory Song. Although the Song Group has declared bankruptcy, I think someone was behind those unfortunate incidents. Miss Zhao was just caught in the middle of it all."

The news of Song Group's bankruptcy was out, with the general public given access to pick and prod at that information. Looking at the woman across her who seemed to be in a difficult position, even without asking, Sunny knew how embarrassing Fiona's and Gregory's positions were.

She was not the kind-hearted type of person. But she had heard about the grudges between Gregory Song and Nicole Ning, and now she had someone who could help her enact her vendetta with the latter.

"You're right. But we haven't found conclusive evidence as of yet. Who are you?"

Fiona looked at Sunny with hopeful eyes. She could feel that Sunny was the God-sent angel to help them out of their troubles. Whether they could make it out of their dilemma would depend on the woman in front of them.

"As for your situation, I happen to have some information about it. Miss Zhao, why don't you give Mr. Song a call? We can discuss it further. I am quite optimistic regarding the Song family and I'm certain they can regain strength that they held in the past."

A friendly smile was plastered on Sunny's face, bringing Fiona a sense of hope for her future.

"Okay, I'll call him right away."

As Fiona spoke, she took out her phone from her pocket and called Gregory, telling him about the woman she was currently with.

Watching the desperate woman's movement, Sunny's eyes revealed a satisfied expression.

In the hospital, Kerr walked Nicole to the ward and headed for the company. Nicole sat in Jay's ward, packing up his stuff.

"Jay, Mommy might have to do something very important, and we may need to be apart for a while. But I will find someone to take care of you, okay?"

Nicole knew that even if she could hide this from Kerr, she couldn't hide it from Jay. So she had to discuss this with him in advance.

Jay frowned when he heard what his mother said.

"Why? Do you not want me anymore? Is there something wrong with me that's upsetting you, Mommy?"

All his life, Jay never left Nicole's side. They had always been together, so he had never thought nor had it ever crossed his mind that he would leave her one day.

"No, it's not that, sweetie. Don't think about it too much. It's just temporary. I wouldn't want to leave you at all if it was possible. Forget it. You can just pretend that I didn't mention it. Dr. Su said you can already be discharged from the hospital. Would you like to go to the celebration party with me tonight?"

Nicole reached out to hold her son in her arms and comforted him.

She also didn't want to be apart from Jay. No matter who would help her to take care of Jay, she couldn't help but be nervous; she was always worried about her little boy. She could clearly feel the fear of Jay, which convinced her that she had never given Jay enough sense of security with her love for him.

She owed it her little boy so she couldn't let him leave just because she wanted to be with Kerr.

"Mommy, I will be a good boy,"

Jay clung his arms around his mother's neck and said in a fearful tone.

"You've always been a good boy, sweetheart, it's all my fault,"

Nicole murmured, her face full of guilt.

In the cafe, Sunny handed Fiona and Gregory an envelope.

"This is the reward for you. After it is done, there will be a large sum of money transferred to your account. I hope you will not let me down."

Looking at the greedy eyes of Gregory and Fiona, Sunny was full of disdain, but she didn't show it on her face.

"Of course, Miss He. Don't worry. We know what we should do. Even without your help, we are looking for an opportunity to get revenge."
