It was a good thing that they brought Nicole in the same hospital that Jay was in. His room was just
downstairs.
"Yes, Mr. Gu!"
Jared said and made his way towards the elevator. However, he was just about to push the down
button when the elevator door opened. Jared took a step back when he saw who was inside the
elevator. Avery gently pushed out the wheelchair that Jay was sitting on.
"I was on my way to pick you guys up," Jared informed them.
He noted that Jay had lost a lot of weight; he looked thin as a stick. Jay looked at Jared, the concern in
his eyes was obvious.
"Is my mommy okay?"
He witnessed Nicole faint. He watched his mother's speech through the computer in the ward and he
also saw that it was Kerr who carried her away. That was why Jay called Kerr but it didn't mean that
Jay had forgiven Kerr for what he had done.
The affair between Kerr and Sunny was pretty scandalous. It made him think that perhaps he placed
his trust in the wrong person. Even though Kerr was probably his biological father, Jay didn't think that
this man would be a good partner to his mother.
"She will be fine,"
Kerr answered in a gentle voice. When he saw them by the elevator, he immediately walked over
intending to comfort Jay. However, to his surprise, Jay simply turned his head awkwardly and didn't
even look at him.
"Well," Avery started in an attempt to relieve the awkward tension. She turned to Jay, "You were
worried about your mommy, weren't you? You can stop worrying now because your mommy will be
fine."
Avery squatted next to Jay, a faint smile on her face.
She had never seen Jay act this way until now. She found it rather adorable. It was a rare sight for Jay
to act like a child, even though it would be considered normal for his age. So, she was surprised to
witness Jay be so moody and on the verge of a tantrum.
"I do not believe him."
Jay held Avery's hand but still didn't look up at Kerr.
When she heard that, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry at his statement. She turned her head to
look at Kerr; she had a helpless look in her eyes.
Honestly, Kerr wasn't really paying attention to Jay's words. He was more focused on the door of the
operating room. It could open at any second.
He knew that Jay was a rational child. When he finally solved everything and explained himself to
Nicole and Jay, then the boy would surely forgive him.
In the operating room
"The surgery is finished."
Harley gave Harrow a cheerful smile as soon as they completed the operation. He walked over to the
operating table to take a closer look at the woman who stole Kerr's attention.
At first glance, Harley could already tell that Nicole was gorgeous. Her eyes were closed but her curly
eyelashes cast a light shadow on her eyelids. Her skin was as white as snow.
Her sharp nose complemented her face perfectly. No wonder Kerr was so worried about her. He was
head over heels for this beautiful woman. An understanding smile appeared on Harley's face. When it
came to beautiful women, men were easily entranced.
Satisfied by his observations, he turned around and walked out of the surgery room.
"She's alright. She just needs to pay more attention to her food intake. Make sure she eats healthy food
and that she eats them on time. She also needs to have a good rest."
After he had finished talking about Nicole's condition, Harley glanced at the boy sitting in the
wheelchair next to him. He looked at the child in surprise.
"Since when did you have a son?"
The young boy's delicate features were similar to Kerr's. And now, they both had the same worried look
on their faces.
The question took both Kerr and Jay by surprise but they both chose not to say anything.
Jay had thought about that possibility for a long time, however, he still hadn't confirmed anything yet.
"When will she come out?"
Kerr didn't answer Harley's question and decided to bring the conversation back to Nicole.
He knew that Harley was right; Jay did bear a resemblance to him. However, he still needed to verify
this before he jumped to conclusions. He had long suspected that perhaps Nicole was the girl who fled
from him all those years ago.
However, every time that he started to get suspicious about it, Nicole would just provide proof that
negated his theories.
"She should be out soon. Should Harrow take her directly to your exclusive ward?"
Harley didn't question them any further. He knew the kind of person that Kerr was. He had been with
several women, sure, but he would always make sure that he was safe. So even if the little boy in front
of them was related to Kerr in any way, there must be some sort of explanation. Perhaps it was an
accident.
Although, now that he thought about it, he remembered that Kerr once told him that there was no such
thing as "accidents" in his world.
"No, please send her in the downstairs ward."
He couldn't let Nicole use the privileges of the Gu family while she was in the hospital. He wanted to
protect her and the only way he could ensure that was if they would lay low.
However, he wouldn't let that happen forever. This was only a temporary arrangement. He had already
planned his future with Nicole on the day that he took her to the flower nursery. He was going to make
that happen no matter what.
But before that, he needed to make sure that Nicole's safety wouldn't be compromised.
"Okay, got it."
For Harley, it seemed that Nicole was only Kerr's new favorite for now. Only the true hostess of the Gu
family could enjoy the exclusive privileges.
Harley gave Jay a quick nod and then turned around to let Harrow make the arrangement.
Once Nicole was sent to her ward, Kerr didn't let go of her hand even once. He just held it tight and
looked at her affectionately.
Jay couldn't help but feel mixed emotions about Kerr upon seeing him look at his mom that way.
"Aren't you engaged to another woman? Why do you still care so much about my mommy?"
Jay definitely had a little bit of venom in his voice as he talked to Kerr, he was still upset by what he did
and wanted to defend his mom. Even though Nicole had never mentioned anything about Kerr until
recently, he knew that she had never forgotten him.
"I will not marry another woman,"
Kerr told him, a serious look in his eyes.
When Avery saw Jay's headstrong approach, she couldn't help but ruffle the boy's hair a bit. With a
smile, she turned around and walked out of the ward.
She saw Jared in the hallway and gave him a playful wink.
She knew that Kerr and Jay were both intelligent and stubborn, so she wanted them to solve their
differences on their own. She already saw how much Kerr cared for Nicole.
However, if Kerr truly wanted to be with Nicole, then he should do everything he could to get on Jay's
good side.
When the door of the ward closed, Kerr stretched out his arms to hold Jay in a comforting embrace. He
placed the little boy on his lap so he could get a closer look at his mother.
"I only want to marry your mommy, Jay."
While he was still in Kerr's arms, Jay turned his head to the side, his eyebrows furrowed together.
"But you made my mommy sad. Mommy doesn't tell me anything but she was always distracted and
staring at walls for no reason. She would even lose a lot of sleep and I know it's all because of
you."
