"What happened?" Nicole hadn't seen Kerr so angry for a long time. Her intuition told her that something must have happened.
With a worried look on her face, Nicole held Kerr's hand and felt that he had gradually calmed down and his face softened.
Kerr held Nicole's hand and shook his head. "It's just some work troubles. Don't worry. I can handle them." After saying that, he stood up and went back to the study.
Looking at his back, Nicole knew that Kerr had hidden a secret from her, but she didn't doubt his motive at all.
Sitting on the sofa, Nicole kept thinking about Ben. She wanted to know what was going on with Ben, but if she didn't tell Kerr...
Then Nicole would have no chance or ability to find out the truth.
Jared came in and nodded to Nicole, "Mrs. Nicole." After greeting her, he went upstairs directly.
Pushing the door open, Jared saw Kerr's back. "Sir, those people are forcing Mrs. Freya to pay back the money, but as far as I know, she has sold a lot of personal items.
But facing that huge gambling debt, her struggling was in vain." Jared had always known that Freya was addicted to gambling, but the Gu family was rich and powerful, so they didn't care about the loss at all.
Many of the Gu family's real estates were actually under the name of the Gu Group. As a member of the Gu family, they only had the right to use them. Before the Gu Group declared bankruptcy, those real estates were also facing the risk of sealing up.
Now, the only thing that Jack and Freya could control at will was the old house of the Gu family. However, neither Jack nor Freya would sell it.
They only relied on this mansion to maintain the glory of the Gu family.
Hearing Jared's words, Kerr's face darkened
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.
night in your life." His words were full of warning. He would not let Nicole in danger again.
Nicole fell asleep with a smile.
In her dream, Nicole saw Ben, who seemed to be smiling at her. The heavy mist blanketed his figure, and she couldn't see clearly where she was. Then she founded that she was in the Xue family.
Nicole felt familiar, "Mr. Ben, have I been here before?" Nicole frowned and asked Ben, but he didn't answer. He just smiled gently at her.
"I don't allow you to be with Kerr!" A harsh voice rang in her ear, making her shiver involuntarily.
She turned around to look for the voice, "Who is it? Who are you? Who is talking?" It was not the first time that such a voice had appeared in her dream. She really wanted to know what had happened.
In a daze, she felt someone pushing her body.
Nicole slowly opened her eyes.
"Nicole? Did you have a nightmare?" Kerr frowned and sensed the uneasiness of the little woman in his arms. Then he woke up Nicole.
Looking into Kerr's eyes, Nicole shook her head and said, "It's just a strange dream." Nicole sat up and looked outside. It was already dawn.
"Should we get up now?"
