Chapter 124 How Much Is He Worth
There was no fear in Nicole‘s voice, although her heart was pounding wildly in her chest.
But she had to be brave. Otherwise, people would walk all over her. She could not afford that.
"You are indeed an unusual woman. You are fearless and calm under dire circumstances. No wonder the young master's wrapped around your finger."
Kelvin spoke calmly and invited Nicole to have a seat. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
"Don't worry. I won't hurt you, but please know that if I wanted you dead, you'd be dead."
Nicole hesitated but eventually took the seat in front of Kelvin.
She knew he was serious about getting her killed if he wanted to. He had not done anything to hurt her, but Nicole was not about to let her guard down.
"The young master? Are you from the Gu family?"
Taking in the surroundings and the people in the room, Nicole immediately realized the truth.
"How clever. I guess I won't have to beat around the bush with you."
Kelvin raised his hand, and the man in black who was standing behind Nicole put the tray in his hand on the table.
"There's a blank check. Write any amount you want."
Nicole glanced at the check and then looked at Kelvin.
"I don't believe in free lunches. What do you want from me?"
All good things came with a price. Nicole had always believed that.
"Very well. Take the check and leave the young master. You can go anywhere in the world and start anew. I'll even make arrangements for you."
Kelvin believed that most people could be tempted by money. It was certainly possible that Nicole would leave with the money he was offering, and Kerr would be left heartbroken and disappointed.
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

"There are only two ways for us to solve this problem, Miss Ning. You either take the check and cut ties with the young master, or you disappear from the face of the planet with your son Jay."
Kelvin tossed a black pistol on the table.
The loud clap of the drop startled Nicole. Setting her gaze on Kelvin, she took a deep breath, walked to the table, and picked up the check.
"I need three days to get my affairs in order. I don't want to do things sloppily."
Nicole held the check in her hands.
"I can only give you two days. Two days from now, I will send a car to pick you and Jay up. I hope you hold up your end of the deal. You will certainly regret it if you don't and in the most painful way possible. I can make sure of that.
I don't compromise with deal breakers," Kelvin warned.
"Fine."
With a grim face, Nicole left the villa. The same car that picked her up from the hospital was the same car that took her back.
Watching the car drive away, Nicole sighed with relief, but she could not completely relax.
