Nicole couldn't fathom how Mrs. Fang managed to get hold of this information, but she surely wouldn't stand to watch anyone tarnish the reputation of her beloved son.
She tore the DNA test into pieces and threw it into a trash can.
"Mrs. Fang, I apologize but it seems like I cannot consider you as an aunt, no matter how close I am to Baron, seeing the stunt you just pulled. But no matter how close we have been for all these years, I consider him as nothing more than a friend. Jay is my son; he's not related to Baron.
It has never crossed my mind to enter into a relationship with your son, and even less so with regards to being a part of the Fang family. I am not a threat, nor will I ever be, to your family's reputation, so kindly dispose of that idea. However, that is not what upsets me the most this evening. It's that you've used my son as a pawn in whatever silly plan you are concocting in your mind.
I am not sorry to have given birth to him. He is the most precious gift in my life. He is my pride. There is nothing in the world I would change, especially if that means I would lose him. I know my place and it is nowhere near your family. If you'll excuse us, we'll be on our way."
They had to leave immediately. Everything that was happening could negatively affect Jay. She even forgot that Kerr could hear her amongst all the turmoil of this evening.
So Nicole turned to leave with her son, but was stopped by Kerr.
With one hand holding Jay and the other holding Nicole's shoulder, Kerr stared at the Mrs. Fang sharply.
"Mrs. Fang, Ms. Ning is part of the Gu Group. As you know, a mermaid must be kept in the sea, a mere pond cannot allow it to be free and grow beautifully. Nicole is that kind of woman. So I highly suggest that you pay attention to your words and deeds so as not to bring trouble to your family."
How could anyone think otherwise?
Nicole was
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.
ou afraid of?"
His voice was tempting. He looked firmly at the woman in front of him.
He could feel Nicole's fear and worry, and he could also feel that she had pretended to be strong.
When she heard Kerr, Nicole's eyes began to water. Her guard seemed to be shattered by his gentle voice, as if all of her strength dissipated into thin air.
"I don't want Jay to experience what happened today again. What Mrs. Fang said is right. I'm not a good match for the Fang family, and the Gu family is not something I can reach either. So I hope you can let me go.
What I want is very simple. I just want Jay and I to live a peaceful life. I don't want to be disturbed by anyone."
When did such a simple wish become a luxury? She never thought that one day she would ask others to give her a peaceful life.
"Why did you lie to me? Baron is not Jay's father, and you have never been with him."
Kerr remembered that conversation, but he didn't expect that Baron was so cunning that he would think of such a way to prevent him from approaching Nicole. What pissed him off more was that Nicole lied to him as well.
In the past, what he could not bear most was others' deception, but now he accepted it, and he even felt a little relieved that it was all a lie.
