Chapter 139 Reveal Her Identity (1/2)
”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.”
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.
