Chapter 282 A Passerby
Kerr could only wonder who had hurt this man in such a place.
Upon hearing Kerr's voice, the man turned to look at him and begged, "Take her out of here." The man then glanced in Nicole's direction.
Kerr‘s face turned cold. "Who are you?" Apparently, this man knew them.
The man was obviously in very poor condition, so he didn’t have the strength to explain anything to Kerr. "Don't worry about me, just protect that woman and her baby."
He glanced at Nicole vaguely, but there was a deep worry in his eyes.
When Nicole looked into the man's eyes from a distance, she felt that she might recognize him, but because of the distance she wasn't sure about it. Just as she was about to walk towards the man, Kerr went back to her.
With his brows knitted in concern, Kerr held his pregnant wife in his arms and turned back.
Nicole wrapped her arms around Kerr‘s neck and looked at the man leaning against a tree trunk. At that moment he was standing with his back to her, so she couldn't see his face.
"Who is it?" she asked curiously.
Kerr shook his head and replied, "I don't know. Just a passer-by."
Without thinking too much, she followed Kerr back to the villa and got ready to leave immediately. Even though she still was a bit reluctant to leave, she knew what she had to do.
"We will come back again." Kerr tried to comfort Nicole, but he felt truly sorry for her.
"I know." Smiling faintly, Nicole gripped Kerr's hand tightly.
The next morning, Kerr and the rest of them boarded the plane and took a straight flight to A City.
In the Gu Group
Moore had already stepped down from his position. It had been less than half a year since he took over the Gu Group, but he left the company in shame.
Moore knew very well that many people were laughing at him behind his back.
Standing in the CEO's office for the last time, Moore was extremely upset. He had never imagined that he would leave the Gu Group so disgracefully.
He took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
"I heard that Kerr will return today. Would you like to see him?"
On the other side of the line, Sunny was overjoyed by the news, but when she looked at Daniel not far away, she hesitated. "Maybe wait a few more days. The baby is still in the incubator."
When Daniel found Sunny, he brought her and the child back to his house. Unfortunately, it turned out that she had lost her freedom completely.
Daniel was very strict with her. His heart softened when he looked at the newborn baby, but he still couldn't accept the fact that Sunny had given birth to a baby before her marriage.
After hanging up, Sunny turned to look at her father. "Dad, I want..."
"What do you want? You can’t control yourself when you know that Kerr is back?" Daniel looked affectionately at the baby sleeping soundly in the incubator.
But his tone was very cold. Yesterday, he had received a call from Jack. He knew that Kerr was coming back that day, but it didn't mean that he would allow Sunny to meet Kerr so soon.
"Let me tell you, if Kerr wants to see the child, he has to marry you in front of his family. Otherwise, the child will belong to our family alone.
He is my grandson. He doesn't need to have anything to do with the Gu family. I have to make it clear to you. I refuse to let you disgrace yourself in front of Kerr again."
Daniel made this rule for her, but he understood that she still wanted to marry Kerr. So he would help her fulfill her wish.
With that, he stood up and left the house.
Sitting on the sofa, Sunny felt helpless. She missed Kerr and wanted him so badly that she didn't care whether he would take her as his wife or not, as long as she could be with him.
To be with the man she loved was her only desire.
"Go to the Gu family's house," Daniel said to the driver after he got into the car.
The driver started the car immediately, and drove him to the Gu family’s villa.
Before long, Daniel was sitting in the living room of the Gu family's old house. "I think you already know that Sunny has given birth to a boy. She is in poor health now, so she couldn't come in person. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
As her father, I think I need to remind you that they had an engagement long ago. But now, Kerr has broken that engagement. He has made Sunny, a weak girl, bear such an enormous pressure all by herself.
It is a hard burden for us in the He family. If you want to cancel this marriage, very well. Then I would have a new grandson and his surname would be He, and your family won’t have to worry about it."
Even though Daniel spoke lightly with a casual tone, it was a threat.
Jack's face darkened. Everything was going wrong nowadays. Moore had almost ruined the Gu Group. Although Kerr was actually on his way back, Kelvin had told Jack that Kerr didn't intend to return to the Gu family.
Freya glanced at Jack, who was silent, and then smiled at Daniel. "The Gu family and the He family have enjoyed a friendship for many years. We have always liked Sunny, and now she has given birth to a child of our family.
Of course we must show our respect to Sunny, and you can rest assured that the Gu family will accept Sunny as our daughter-in-law. After Kerr comes back to us soon, I will definitely try to persuade him with all of my heart."
Freya wasn't sure if she could succeed, but in the face of Daniel's threat, she could only promise him first.
Daniel was satisfied with this answer.
The plane landed on the Gu family's exclusive parking apron. Kerr had been concerned that a long flight would make Nicole uncomfortable, even though Harley and Nicole had repeatedly assured him that there was nothing to worry about.
But Kerr still had concerns about Nicole, so he carried her in his arms and got off the plane.
Kerr didn’t put her down until they reached their car.
"I've told you I'm fine. Don't worry." Nicole wanted to put Kerr's mind at ease. It seemed that ever since her pregnancy began, Kerr had been more nervous than her.
Kerr smiled to her in response.
Before Nicole could say anything, they heard the sharp sound of brakes not far away. Turning around, they saw a red Ferrari stop not far away from them.
