The Reunion After Seven Years

Chapter 185 Kerr Left

In Kerr's villa

Jared walked in and waited to the side since Nicole hadn't finished her breakfast.

"Did you make the preparations?" Nicole turned to look at Jared as she spoke.

Today, before going to work, Nicole had something more important to take care of. From the outside, Kerr was a complete mystery as no one knew where he had gone.

For Kerr's safety, Nicole had to divert everyone's attention from him. Otherwise, if she went to the company during the day, this would leave Kerr alone at home, and while she could be wary of others, she had no protection against the Gu family.

So the best way forward was to convince everyone that Kerr was not at home.

When Jared heard what Nicole said, he nodded. "Yes, everything is ready, and the double is waiting outside." Jared couldn't help admiring her refined intellect. Only she could have thought of this clever solution.

Of course, there was another person who was her equal in the art of deception. That was Kerr. Kerr had also used such a ploy to divert his opponents' attention before, so he had been prepared. Now it seemed that Nicole and Kerr were really a match made in heaven.

Putting down the glass of milk, Nicole dabbed her mouth with a napkin and stood up. "Let's go." When she reached the door of the villa, she saw a man's straight and powerful back silhouetted against the light.

The image looked so familiar that, for a moment, Nicole thought the man must be Kerr. She had instructed Jared to find a man who resembled Kerr, but she didn't expect the double to be so similar.

Hearing footsteps behind him, the man turned around, and he was wearing a pair of over-sized sunglasses. Not only his build, but also his facial structure was somewhat similar to that of Kerr. "Miss Ning,"

the man greeted her.

If his voice wasn't so different from Kerr's, Nicole would almost have believed that the man in front of her was Kerr. But when she thought of the fact that Kerr was still lying unconscious in bed, she couldn't help feeling a sharp pang of disappointment.

The corners of her mouth barely framed a smile. She regarded the man in front of her. "Thank you. Don't worry. I'll assign someone to protect you." She knew that what she was asking was dangerous.

Although this man was not Kerr, he also had the right to live. It was out of pure necessity that she was paying him to take the risk for Kerr, so she could not let this man face any more danger.

The man was obviously shocked when he heard her promise. "You're welcome, Miss Ning."

He opened the car door for Nicole and watched her getting in. Then he followed her, sitting next to her.

After Jared took a seat in the passenger's seat and told the driver to drive the car, he turned to Nicole and explained, "Miss Ning, don't worry. Everything is arranged. Harold will not be in any danger.

In fact, Harold was not hard to find. He used to double up for Master Kerr. He was trained and groomed up by the young master. He was a confidant of Master Kerr, so he is quite familiar with the Gu family."

Jared knew that if he did not explain this to Nicole, she would continue to worry about Harold's safety.

Nicole was surprised to hear this, but thinking of Kerr, she realized that it was not really a surprise at all. He was so smart that she knew he would have had the same idea.

They thought along similar lines, and perhaps this was because of their special tacit understanding. Nicole smiled and gazed out through the window. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Even though Kerr hadn't regained consciousness yet, Nicole was still able to feel his nearness. This was a great comfort to her, and she didn't feel as lonely or forlorn.

The car soon parked at the gate of the airport. When the car stopped, Nicole stepped out of the car and affectionately took "Kerr's" arm. She gently leaned her head on his shoulder and accompanied him into the airport.

A reporter hiding outside the airport gate secretly snapped up this moment with a camera in his hand.

Jared followed close behind Nicole and caught a glimpse of the camera. An expression flashed on his face, but he hid it under the sunglasses so that no one noticed him.

They went to the security checkpoint. When "Kerr" was about to step through, he was pulled aside by Nicole. She raised her hand, gently straightened "Kerr's" tie, and then stood on tiptoes, gently whispering in his ear.

But she stopped one centimeter away from the double's ear, deliberately giving the hidden paparazzi the illusion of closeness. After straightening and waving goodbye to "Kerr," she watched his figure disappear and then walked out of the airport with a look of disappointment.

It was not until they got back to the car that she heaved a sigh of relief.

"Miss Ning, do you want to go home and get some rest?"

Jared was constantly worried about her.

Nicole shook her head. "Let's go back to the company. I still have a lot of things to deal with." Nicole was tired and wanted to rest, but she still worried about the Gu Group.

After arriving at the office, she walked in and sat in Kerr's seat, smiling.

Lily carried a stack of sorted files in her hand and handed them to Nicole. "I've sorted through this information. By the way, everyone in the company is gossiping about Mr. Gu's business trip.

Has Mr. Gu really gone abroad?" Lily had been instructed by Moore to come and confirm it.

On hearing Lily's words, Nicole burst out in a peal of laughter. She turned around, looked at Lily, who now frowned in confusion, and nodded. "Yes, I am so late today because I dropped him off at the airport. He won't be back for several days."

There was a slight note of loss in Nicole's tone. However, she did not expect that the news would spread to the company so fast. It was clear that their every move was being monitored.

She felt more and more convinced that she had made the right decision to protect and keep Kerr safe.

Seeing the expression in Nicole's eyes, Lily had already extrapolated an answer in her mind. Standing next to her, Lily was very hesitant when she saw that Nicole had set her attention on the new development project.

She had always felt that Nicole had treated her very kindly. She couldn't bear the thought of betraying her, but she had no other choice. If she didn't, she would be the victim.

Nicole didn't notice Lily's guilty look. Thinking that her plan had worked, she chuckled to herself. For Kerr, this was probably the best thing right now.

Seeing the happy smile on Nicole's face, Jared, who came in from outside, gradually felt less tense and allowed himself a relieved breath.

"Miss Ning, Master Kerr has already discussed with the other partners about the business plan he had formed. We only need his signature before things can get under way."
