The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 200

Ever since she gave birth to Jay, Nicole had always wanted to have a daughter.

"I want to have a little sister so that I can be a big brother. I will definitely protect her, Mommy. Don't worry, I will never bully my little sister."

Jay was cute as he made his solemn promise to his mother, with his eyes focused on her belly.

A smile came to Nicole's face as she saw how serious and solemn her boy was. She turned her head and looked at Kerr, who was next to her. "What do you think?"

Kerr had all the vitamins he had prepared for Nicole in his hand. He was carefully reading the instructions left by Harley, because he was determined not to be careless. Nicole‘s voice finally caught his attention, so he shifted his focus over to her.

"I love all babies. It doesn't matter whether it's a boy or a girl, as long as it is our baby."

Boys and girls were the same to him. As long as the child was the flesh and blood of Nicole and of him, and was the fruit of their love, he would definitely give it all of his devotion.

The baby was a big surprise to him, but he had already made up his mind to devote his life to it.

"Harley said that your condition was unstable. You'd better not leave the villa from tomorrow on. Your health is our top priority for the first three months."

He couldn't imagine how she kept herself together during his coma.

Nicole didn't make any reply to Kerr's words of concern. She was focusing on their child. She looked at the two of them beside her, with happiness beaming in her eyes.

Kerr's domineering manner was noticed by Jay, who curled his lips and said, "You're such a bossy old man."

Nicole looked at Jay in surprise. Since the last phone call, she had noticed that Jay's attitude to Kerr had changed.

"Jay, don't be so rude. What on earth are you talking about?"

She still didn't know why Jay‘s attitude to Kerr was so different. Jay had always liked Kerr very much before then.

Jay lowered his head under Nicole's reproach.

"It's between us. You don't have to worry about it."

Before Jay could say another word, Kerr reached out and took him into his arms, and went upstairs with him to his study.

Jay muttered, with his head resting on Kerr‘s shoulder,

"You old man..."

Nicole looked at their two faces and saw that they were becoming more and more alike. She couldn't hold back a smile. After all, they would handle their problem by themselves, so she didn't need to care about it anymore.

Kerr carried Jay into the study and set him down on the ground. He looked down at the boy, who had a grumpy expression on his cute little face.

"You don't like me, do you?"

When he called Ken earlier, he wanted to speak to Jay, but this little guy refused to talk to him. At that moment he immediately knew that the little boy was unhappy.

Jay turned his small face up to the tall and strong man standing in front of him. He was in no hurry to answer the question. He turned around, saw a chair not far away, and ran to it with his short legs.

He pushed the chair in front of Kerr with difficulty, then he scrambled onto the chair and stood upon it, but he was still a little shorter than him.

Jay stood on his tiptoe and looked at Kerr with his head held high. "You kept my mom away from me for such a long time. It's time to give her back to me."

The fact that he was the only man beside his mommy before she went back to Kerr was fixed in his mind. No matter what happened, his mommy had never abandoned him in the past.

Since Kerr had walked into their lives, Jay felt that he had stolen Nicole‘s attention from him, which had once belonged to him alone.

Not to mention that this silly man couldn't figure out the fact that he was his real father, how could Jay not be angry?

Seeing the disgruntlement on Jay's face, Kerr said gently, "I'm going to be with your mommy for the rest of my life. What can you do about it?"

This was the first time he had ever been forced to deal with a child of Jay's age. In fact, Kerr's relationship with Jay made him feel a little awkward. But it seemed that the best thing to do was to have a good, man-to-man talk with Jay.

"You! Humph! After Mommy gives birth to a little sister, I'll take Mommy with me."

Jay glared at Kerr, his face red with anger.

Kerr went to the desk and sat down. In the blink of an eye, Jay jumped from the chair again and pushed it over to Kerr. When Jay stood upon the chair once more, it was obvious that he was a little higher than Kerr this time.

It was then that Jay's face lit up with a smile.

"If you want to take her away, the first thing you need to do is to be taller than me. How else could you protect her?"

Kerr opened his notebook and spread in front of him casually, studying the latest plan to be implemented. It looked like he understood it clearly.

"Don't think you can protect her just by helping her solve the problems of the plan. If you want to protect a person, first you should make yourself stronger, you know?" Kerr added.

Glancing at Jay's stubborn face, Kerr knew that Jay would make great achievements in the future as long as he trained him well.

Even though Jay wasn't his son by birth, Kerr still treated him as if he were his own child.

"Watch out. Once I get my chance I'll take Mommy and run away from here!" Jay raised his head, trying to look arrogant.

In fact, he was just trying to provoke Kerr, because he hadn't discovered their father-and-son relationship.

Kerr didn't take his words seriously. He stroked Jay’s soft hair and said, "Even if I give you the chance, so what?"

While speaking, Kerr pushed his computer in front of Jay and said, "I cracked this password in one minute. How about you?"

Jay was still just an innocent child, but he was already so eager to become a man. Kerr didn't want to force Jay to grow up. He just wanted Jay to have a happy childhood.

However, as long as Jay would let him, Kerr would give him another chance.

Kerr‘s challenge piqued Jay‘s interest. He sat down and stared at the computer screen.

Then Kerr stood up and walked out of the study.

He walked into the dining room and held Nicole's hand. "Where is Jay?" Nicole asked.

When she saw that only Kerr went downstairs, it occurred to her that it was almost dinner time, but she didn't see Jay anywhere.

"He will be here soon."

Kerr was pretty sure that Jay would solve the problem, though he knew it would take some time.

The dinner was ready to be served, but Jay still hadn't shown up, so Nicole was about to stand up and tell Jay to come downstairs and have dinner.
