The Reunion After Seven Years novel Chapter 62

She was absolutely angry. All she wanted was to choke Kerr to death, but since murder was against the law and she had her Jay to think of, she couldn't do anything that impulsive. Yes, impulsiveness was the devil.

"Jay!"

Nicole exclaimed. She checked the time on her wristwatch and was horrified when she realized that she had forgotten to pick up Jay from school.

"How come my mommy has been forgetting me a lot lately? I feel so sad!"

With his schoolbag still on his back, Jay walked towards his mom's office. As he was walking, he caught a glimpse of Kerr and greeted him warmly.

"Hello, Uncle Gu!"

Nicole approached her son and saw Jared standing next to him.

"Mr. Kang, thank you for picking up Jay from school for me today."

Hearing the gratitude in Nicole's voice, Jared couldn't help but feel a little bit embarrassed. He scratched his head and said,

"Mr. Gu asked me to do it. You can thank him if you want."

He didn't want to be involved anymore, so he immediately shifted Nicole's attention to Kerr and made sure to put in a good word for him.

If it hadn't been for him, she would have never forgotten to pick up her son. Besides, whatever she felt for Kerr the night before was totally gone by now.

"Mommy, you should thank Uncle Gu."

Noticing the look Nicole was giving Kerr, Jay knew that Kerr had made his mommy angry at him once again. He admired Kerr with all his heart, but he was also the only one who could make Nicole that angry.

In all his life, he had never seen his mommy be as angry as Kerr made her.

"I will make sure to thank him."

Nicole glared at Kerr and gritted her teeth. It was as if she was going to skin him alive.

"It's time for dinner. I've asked someone to prepare the food for you."

Kerr didn't care for Nicole's attitude at all, but he knew she must be hungry now given that she hadn't had lunch yet.

"I'm not hungry!"

As a reflex response, Nicole immediately refused Kerr's offer.

But just as she was about to leave with her son, her stomach growled.

"Oh! Mommy, you lied. You know, I am hungry too!"

Jay put his little hands on his belly as he looked at Kerr with an expectant look in his eyes.

Nicole's hands subconsciously flew to her stomach, and before she could say anything, she saw Kerr bend down to take Jay in his arms and walk outside.

"Hey, put Jay down!"

With her handbag in her hand, she followed closely behind Kerr. He walked so fast that she actually had to trot just to keep up with his pace.

"Mom, it's not good to waste food. That's what you taught me."

Jay planted his head firmly on Kerr's shoulder and smiled at Nicole who was walking right behind them. Then, he mischievously whispered into Kerr's ear.

"I had to find a way to help you, but you don't have to be too grateful to me, Uncle Gu!"

He patted Kerr's shoulder with his small hand like an adult.

As soon as Kerr put Jay in the car, he saw Nicole walking out of the company. He opened the car door for her.

"Okay, you win!"

She looked at her son who was now completely captivated by Kerr, and had no choice but to get in the car.

She was the one who gave birth to her son, but he was won over by Kerr so easily, and it made her feel a little frustrated.
