Chapter 91 Meaningless Thing
"Mr. Gu, please don't take me for a fool. I know my place and that is someone who is merely an employee of the Gu Group. Whatever it is that happened between us, it was nothing but my wishful thinking. Rest assured, it won't happen again in the future. So, I'm kindly asking you to please let me go. Miss He is the perfect person for you. You both belong with each other; you're a match made in heaven."
Nicole had very little trust on the man to begin with. She let her guard down for a short while and this happened. This couldn't go on and she refused to believe him anymore.
Her mind wandered back to her plan to return to Manhattan with Jay. Perhaps she shouldn't give up her intention of leaving because of Kerr. However, her heart sank in sadness and disappointment when she chose to leave again.
"Nicole."
Even if he knew his words were useless, Kerr couldn't do anything else but to try and pacify Nicole.
"Mr. Gu, you don't have to explain anything to me. I'm just a nobody. I will do my best to finish this bidding successfully and I hope you can approve of my resignation."
Restraining her sadness, she turned around and left.
As she turned around, tears fell from the corners of her eyes. She raised the back of her hand and wiped them away. She didn't want Kerr to see her fragility.
She became stronger because of Jay, but she became extremely fragile because of Kerr. She didn't like who she was becoming and how vulnerable she turned because of the latter.
Following the disappearing back of Nicole with his eyes, Kerr clenched his fists and punched the wall beside him, blood flowing down from the cracks of his fingers.
As Kerr went back to his office, Jared happened to see the wound on his boss's hand. He immediately took out the first-aid kit and simply bound up the wound.
"Mr. Gu, do you need me to explain it to Director Ning?"
He looked at the dark face of Kerr and carefully tried to figure out what he was thinking. F
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.
while, Jared didn't take the food with him.
"That is for you, Miss Ning. Even if you're upset, please take care of yourself." Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Jared nodded at Nicole and closed the door behind him.
Watching him leave, she stared blankly at the food box on the table for a while. Then she stood up and threw it into the trash can.
Time passed. Since that day, she hadn't laid eyes on Kerr. It seemed that he had disappeared from her life.
If she didn't spot the black Porsche following her car, perhaps she really thought that Kerr had disappeared from her sight.
"Mommy, have you decided to return to Manhattan?"
Sitting on the back seat, Jay looked at Nicole who was driving and tilted his head.
"That's exactly what you want, isn't it?"
Hearing her son's voice, Nicole looked at him carefully and saw the black car accidentally.
"Be careful, Mommy!"
Looking ahead, he warned Nicole loudly.
"Ah!"
When she turned her head back on the road, she saw a car coming from the opposite, so she abruptly turned the steering wheel, but it was too late.
The car didn't stop until it hit the fence along the side of the road. When Nicole's head hit the door, she felt dizzy.
However, by instinct, she turned to check on Jay.
"Jay..."
Nicole's voice became weak and she was unconscious.
"Nicole!"
