Jay was very smart for his age. As soon as he saw Nicole's face, he instantly sensed that something was wrong.
Baron's face darkened when Jay suddenly appeared out of the blue. He turned around and looked at his assistant standing behind him. The assistant shrugged his shoulders helplessly and turned his gaze towards Mrs. Fang. Baron then realized that this was his mother's doing.
It seemed like she had found out about Jay's existence.
"Miss Ning, how long have you been together with Mr. Fang? How did you know each other?"
"Miss Ning, who is this boy? Is he your child with Mr. Fang? Miss Ning, please answer me!"
A crowd of reporters besieged them. Some of them held their recorders near her mouth as they threw one invasive question after another. Even the camera crew aimed their light at them to capture their photographs.
When she saw the scene in front of her, Nicole automatically reached out her hand to cover Jay's little face. Then, she lifted him up and held him in her arms so that his back would be turned towards the reporters.
The reporters were relentless in their invasion of their privacy. Without prior consent from Nicole, the cameras continued to flash and the reporters repeated their questions loudly when they got no response. Nicole was deeply disturbed. She didn't want to traumatize Jay by exposing him to such situation.
"It doesn't matter who I am. I believe you came here today to celebrate the anniversary of the Fang Group. Mr. Fang was just joking earlier. I hope you don't mind." Nicole spoke clearly to the reporters.
While smiling politely, her eyes were scanning the room to find the exit of the banquet hall. She smiled brightly when she saw the door, and was about to walk towards it with Jay in her arms.
They couldn't stay here any longer. She decided to leave the event before the situation got any worse. After this, she swore to never let Baron use her as his girlfriend anymore.
"Nicole!"
When Nicole was about to leave, Baron got off the stage and was about to run towards her, but he was stopped by his mother.
Mrs. Fang positioned herself in front of Baron as she firmly held his arm. Disappointment was written all over her face.
"Enough!" Her cold voice echoed through Baron's ears.
She had put all her hope
shock caused by Baron yet.
As she looked at Kerr, Nicole couldn't guess what he was going to do, or perhaps, she could never guess what he was thinking.
"Which of you said that the child in my arms is a bastard?"
Kerr was a few meters away from Nicole earlier but he didn't miss that reporter's clear voice.
Since he wanted to protect Nicole, he would not let go of the people who had hurt Jay easily. Although he was not addressing his question to a specific person, his eyes were precisely fixed on the female reporter who had spoken earlier.
Feeling Kerr's gaze, the reporter didn't even dare to look up at him. Her body was trembling all over.
Kerr was well-known in A City. Almost everyone knew about him. However, no media group dared to casually report any news about him. Every photo and report about him had to be reviewed by the Gu Group.
In compliance with the Gu Group's rules, no media crew dared to put their cameras in front of Kerr when he appeared.
"Mr. Gu I..."
Everyone immediately took a step back when they heard the question. Only the reporter who had just spoken was standing on the same spot. No one had seen Kerr Gu look this angry.
Everyone could feel his threatening tone. This could have made for sensationalized news but they all didn't want to be involved in this matter.
"You can choose to resign today when you go back, or you will no longer be a journalist in the future. If you can say such irresponsible words, it just proves that you don't deserve to be a journalist."
