My CEO Daddy

"Ma'am, Master Kerr will come to understand you someday."

Cherry comforted Freya in the car. She also knew that it would take more than a day or two to undo the misunderstanding between Kerr and Freya.

"Maybe." This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Despite her distress, Freya couldn't blame Kerr for his attitude. She had failed as a mother when she didn't give him enough care or love growing up. Therefore, her son wasn't close to her now.

Once she realized her fault, she had been determined to do her best to make it up for the time they'd lost.

After Freya's departure, Kerr's features gradually softened. His hand, previously holding tightly to Nicole's, also started to loosen its grip. For a moment, he seemed relaxed.

"Kerr, are you okay?"

Nicole held Kerr's hand with concern.

"Don't mind what she said. It's my business who I choose to be with, and nobody has anything to do with this. Besides, I wouldn't let Jay leave us either."

Kerr stretched out his arms and pulled Nicole into an embrace. Now that his secret was exposed to his family, he didn't want to hide his relationship with Nicole from the world any longer.

Maybe this was the best way to protect her.

"You don't need to be so tense, Kerr. I don't think your mother wants me to leave you. I suppose she is just testing me."

From the beginning, Freya Qin remained polite to Nicole. Compared to the threat she got from the man on the day before, Freya hardly put any pressure on Nicole.

In fact, she didn't mind much that Freya came to see her. After all, when she decided to be with Kerr, she knew that sooner or later she would have to face the Gu family.

"Tonight, I'll reveal your identity in the banquet. I won't let anyone hurt you,"

Kerr said confidently.

Seeing the stern look in his eyes, Nicole parted her lips to argue but eventually gave up. Deep down, she knew that perhaps this was the best option for them.

Hand in hand, Nicole and Kerr walked out of the

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.

ly, she frowned.

"Are you mad at me? Why?"

Kerr looked further annoyed when he heard Nicole's words. Turning his gaze towards her, he reached out and got her pressed against the back seat.

"Nicole, do you understand the danger you've been through? Do you realize how much I worry about you? How do you think I would feel if something happened to you in that accident?"

He couldn't accept that she didn't see the crash as a big deal. Even though he knew she didn't say those words on purpose, he was enraged by them.

"That's why you're mad at me? I don't mean to worry you. I know you care about me, and I promise I won't put myself in another dangerous situation again, okay? Just please don't be mad."

With a gentle smile on her lips, Nicole lifted a hand and caressed Kerr's face. She could understand his fear because, as much as he was afraid of losing her, she was also scared of losing him.

Feeling Nicole's soft touch on his skin, Kerr finally began to relax and loosen all his tight muscles. However, he chose to keep his face straight for the time being.

"There won't be a next time, do you hear me? I will never let you face any danger by yourself."

Since Kerr had met Nicole, she had been his weakness. If anything ever happened to her, it wouldn't affect her alone.
