The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 164

It was not until the plane landed that she woke up slowly in Kerr's arms. When the landing was over, they grabbed their luggage and got off the plane. She felt unprecedentedly relieved when she encountered a blue sky and sea in front of her eyes.

The place where they were standing seemed to be closer to the nature. Nicole breathed the fragrance of the air, which could not be felt in a bustling city. Although she liked her surroundings, her eyes were full of doubts.

"Where am I exactly? Isn't a business trip the whole point of this flight?"

Kerr just smiled faintly and put his arm around her shoulder as he heard Nicole's questions with a sense of satisfaction in his eyes.

"I know it's a beautiful place. Do you like it?"

In fact, everything didn't matter as long as Nicole liked it.

Nicole simply nodded. Nicole's personal preference had always been the serenity of the nature instead of an indoor place with too much decoration.

She was truly touched when she knew that Kerr wanted to develop a land of unique beauty for her. She had never told anyone what she wanted, but Kerr could easily guess her taste.

And eventually, he brought to her what she liked.

"When everything is done, I will give you a surprise. From now on, I will accompany you to do everything that you ever wanted."

He believed that Nicole would like the plan of the Sea Heart Island, but it was not the proper time to tell her yet.

"Nicole, although I can give up everything in the Gu family, I still have responsibility for it. I can't allow the centennial business of the Gu family to fall into the hands of others."

Kerr knew Moore's ambitions. As a member of the Gu family, Kerr was supposed to protect everything that belonged to the family, which was none of the business of his father and mother, but just his duty.

"I understand, Kerr. Actually, I don't care at all. It doesn't matter whether you are the CEO of the Gu Group or not. Whatever the outcome might be, Jay and I will always be with you.

I really hope that you can have everything that belongs to you by right. I want to be with you, but I don't want you to lose everything that originally belongs to you because of me.

We are together because we love each other. But if I end up being the reason to make you lose what you deserve to possess, I wouldn't know what to..."

Before she could finish her words, she was stopped by him in the most direct way.

All the concerns of Nicole were clear to Kerr, but he didn't want to talk about such a heavy topic in such a good atmosphere. All he wanted was to live a life with Nicole.

Everything else wasn't so important to him as long as he married her. After all, he thought that he would have more time to stay with her without being in charge of the Gu Group.

Kerr felt he had the whole world in his arms with Nicole.

Meanwhile, something important was happening in the Gu family's old house.

Jack listened to Kelvin's report with a dark tone on his face.

"Master Kerr went abroad with Miss Ning. He didn't tell anyone and just said that he took Miss Ning out for relaxation."

Kelvin looked at Jack meticulously. Actually, he was also curious why Kerr would do such thing as just leaving abruptly. He had never been such a self-willed man. Even if he loved Nicole so much, he would not leave the Gu Group and go away like that.

"How is the Gu Group holding on now?"

In Jack's heart, there was nothing more important than the Gu Group. When he thought of his unfilial son, a noticeable disappointment appeared on his face.

"Right now, Master Moore is concentrating on the new project in the company. But no matter what, Master Kerr is the biological son of the Gu family."

There was an overtone in Kelvin's words. In fact, he knew that Jack preferred Moore rather than Kerr. But for some reason, he always felt that Moore was too slippery for the job. Moore could always easily please everyone though.

Moore had been like this since he came to the Gu family. Unlike Kerr, there was never a moment when he was stubborn.

"Kelvin, pay attention to your words. I already made my own decision. I will ask Moore to deal with some important matters of the Gu Group. I am looking forward to seeing his ability."

Actually, Jack had desired to have Moore as part of the Gu Group several years ago. However, Kerr never agreed to those terms. Besides, Moore said that he needed some time to gain experience, so he just delayed it.

He always felt sorry for Moore.

Kelvin still wanted to persuade Jack, but he could only shut his mouth in silence since Jack had made up his mind firmly.

In the Gu Group, Moore sat in the office where Nicole had worked. He looked at everything that used to belong to her with pompous eyes.

"Director Gu, this is the information that you asked for."

Lily put the folder in front of Moore, nodded slightly at him and was about to turn around and leave when Moore directed his words to her.

"If I'm not mistaken, your name should be Lily. Am I correct?"

Moore looked at her while smirking. It was obvious to him that she was an innocent girl.

Lily nodded again and turned around as she heard what Moore said.

"Yes. What's up, Director Gu?"

He stood up and walked in front of Lily as the smirk was still on his face.

"Am I that scary? You don't even dare to make eye contact with me."

There was a sense of complaint in Moore's tone, which made people feel that there was no distance between them.

"No. You don't look scary."

Lily raised her head and looked directly into the eyes of Moore. The fact that he was very handsome shocked her completely. Moore would always be friendly and smiling to everyone.

If she didn't take a closer look at him, she would have thought that he was still a student.

"Are you free tonight? It'd be nice to have dinner with you so we can get to know each other more and about the company. You should know that I just came back from abroad and I'm a bit ignorant about the business here."

Lily wanted to refuse. But when she saw the sincerity in Moore's eyes, she couldn't help but nod.

After a long time, Lily began to regret that she didn't refuse Moore at that moment.

Meanwhile by the sea, the sunshine was so powerful that it sunburnt everybody. Luckily, Kerr had given Nicole a very cool room.

Seated in a rattan chair, Nicole looked at the beautiful flowers with a face full of satisfaction.

It was not suitable to plant flowers on the beach though, but Kerr had asked people to specially bring the perfect soil which was suitable for flowers to grow and build this flower room in front of them.

"Kerr, are we really on a business trip?"

There was a sense of teasing in her tone. She looked at Kerr, who was sitting leisurely next to her. No one could be as enjoying a business trip as they were. However, the idea that Jay was cheated by his own mother made her feel ill at ease.
