The Reunion After Seven Years

Chapter 86 Somewhere That Belongs To You

While she was asleep, Kerr had already driven the car to the suburbs. The only people around, in the area, was the both of them.

Hearing his words, Nicole's face turned puzzled. She looked out the window and laid eyes on an unfamiliar place.

"Where are we? Aren't we going to be late for work?"

She didn't forget that she hadn't been on duty for two days. The bidding meeting was coming, so she was a little anxious. She didn't want the whole Gu Group to be affected because of her.

"Don't worry. We could rest today. Put on your clothes and I'll take you somewhere."

He took out the clothes that he had asked Jared to bring and helped her put them on one by one. He looked at her softly.

"You know you don't have to help me, right? I can do it myself. Where are we going?"

She reached out her hands and tried to get the clothes from Kerr, but he kept her from getting them.

"You could choose to let me help you wear them or not wear them at all. Besides, I don't mind if we stay in the car for another day."

There was a snicker in his eyes and his tone was firm.

Seeing how determined Kerr was, she sighed in defeat and gave up the struggle. She lowered her head and didn't dare to look into his eyes. Her face was as red as tomato because of embarrassment.

When he saw the shy look on her face, he decided to tease her and slowed down on purpose.

"Kerr!"

Nicole was about to lose her temper under Kerr's intense gaze, so he finally zipped her dress.

In fact, she was not the only one feeling awkward. Kerr had already been turned on. It seemed that as long as he was with her, he would easily lose all his self-control.

"Alright."

Putting Nicole down, Kerr got out of the car and took a deep breath to calm himself. He went back to the driver's seat and started the car.

As Kerr drove the car away from their previous location, Nicole looked out the window curiously and watched the scenery passing by. The car stopped not long after.

"Where are we?"

Nicole opened the door and got out. A large flower path greeted her. The flowers were trimmed neatly. Obviously, someone was taking care of them with a lot of love and care.

Far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the air was exceptionally clear. Nicole took a deep breath and smelled the natural fragrance of the flowers in the air, feeling a sense of tranquility that she had never felt before.

"Somewhere that belongs to you."

Kerr was holding Nicole's hand as they walked towards the flowers in the garden. She looked at the surrounding flora around her and had an indescribable feeling of love.

Not knowing how long she had walked, she didn't find a wooden hut until her feet were numb.

"Hi Kerr, breakfast is ready."

An old man came out from the wooden house and greeted Kerr.

"Grandpa Cheng."

Kerr respectfully greeted the old man, wearing a faint smile instead of the usual serious expression that his face held. He was totally different from the Kerr in the Gu Group.

"Nicole, this is Grandpa Cheng."

Kerr brought Nicole closer to the old man, as though he was presenting her.

"Grandpa Cheng, this is Nicole."

She looked at the old man in front of her and smiled. Then she bowed slightly to greet him.

"Hello, Mr. Cheng! "

Even though the old man in front of her was dressed very simply, he had a noble temperament. Even if she did not know who he was, she could tell from the attitude of Kerr that he must not be as simple as he appeared.

Kerr was always arrogant, but he was willing to bow his head. She knew Grandpa Cheng must be very important to the man beside her, so she had to respect him.

"Hello."

The old man sized up Nicole. She only wore a cotton dress, but her eyes were sparkling. She was a smart girl, and he knew that Kerr's taste was not bad.

"Come on in."

The old man turned around and led them into the house.

"Has Kerr arrived?"

The old woman in an apron put down the plate in her hand, looked up at the door and saw Kerr following after her husband.

"Granny, this is Nicole."

When she heard Kerr speak, Nicole greeted the old lady.

"Hello, Mrs. Cheng!"

"Hello dear! Kerr, you have good taste! Please, both of you, take a seat."

Kerr smiled at her and sat down at the table. He passed the chopsticks to her. This wasn't the first time he had been here.

When she saw what Kerr was doing, she didn't ask any more questions. But she had a lot of doubts in her heart. After the breakfast, she helped the granny clean up the bowls and chopsticks. After that, Kerr took her to the flowerbed and helped her cultivate the flowers and the earth.

There was a change in the expression in Nicole's eyes when she looked at Kerr, who wore gloves and was carefully tending to the earth and flowers.

"What's on your mind? You seem to be in deep thought."

Feeling Nicole's intense gaze, Kerr didn't raise his head but asked indifferently.

"I am thinking about whether a person really does have two sides. Why did you bring me here? This side of yours is so different from the one in the Gu Group. You look so, well, peaceful. It's a little different from your usual self."

She believed that people in the Gu family would also be surprised to see this version of Kerr.

"Don't you think it's good here? I know you'll love it here. Look at the old loving couple, they are so happy in this place. Can you imagine how powerful they were in A City when they were young?" RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

He stopped what he was doing and looked at the older man who was sleeping just outside the hut.

On hearing this, Nicole averted her eyes to where Kerr was looking.

"How did you come to know them?"

She could tell that this old couple was very special in Kerr's eyes, and it seemed that he respected them and was grateful to them.

"I was kidnapped when I was thirteen. I nearly died. They saved me and that was why I am who I am now."

His tone was calm, but no one could understand the sorrow in his words. He felt sad thinking that no one could see that.

When she saw the trace of sadness in Kerr's eyes, she reached out and held his hand. She felt bad for him.

"It's all over now. Don't worry. You are the eldest son of the Gu family!"

She didn't want him to be lost in the traumatizing memory and looked at him with a smile.

"If I could, I really don't want to live in the Gu family."

He squeezed her hand a little and let her go. Then he removed his gloves and walked towards a big tree nearby.

When she saw the lonely figure of Kerr, she stood up and followed him.
