The whole building was almost empty, including Nicole's office. Seeing that there was no one else around, Sunny walked into Nicole's office stealthily, reached for the folder on her desk, and snapped a few pictures with her mobile phone.
Then, she carefully placed the folder back in a way that it looked untouched, and left the office.
Meanwhile, Nicole walked quickly to the parking lot and saw Kerr already sitting in the car. She opened the door of the passenger seat in the front and climbed in.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu. I forgot the time," she said, twisting her head around to look at him.
She pretended not to notice the unhappy expression on his face.
Kerr could easily tell how alarmed she was, but he just looked out the window without responding. He didn't pay any attention to her during the entire car ride. Anyway, he knew she wouldn't be able to hide for the rest of her life.
Nicole was pleased that Kerr wasn't going to blame her. She breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to Jared with a smile.
Jared smiled back without thinking, but when he sensed the chilling aura coming from Kerr, he quickly turned his focus to the road ahead and ignored Nicole.
They reached their destination in Good Times. Once the car slowed to a stop, Nicole got out with Kerr. This was the second time she was coming here, and she felt somewhat overshadowed.
"Don't worry. I won't let you get hurt again," Kerr whispered to her, taking her hand and giving it a gentle squeeze to reassure her.
He had begun to unconsciously notice her every move.
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Gu," Nicole replied impassively, pulling her hand away and stepping back.
Then, she politely pointed forward with her arm, ushering him into the building.
Kerr didn't want to make things difficult for Nicole, so he just walked forward.
The room where the meeting was held was already full, and when Kerr showed up, everyone kept si
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.
Although she didn't know what kind of drug Sunny had given the waiter to mix into the drink, she had a guess.
Without thinking, she took Kerr's hand and pulled him out of the private room in spite of all the people around them. She didn't want him to lose his composure in front of so many people.
Kerr silently followed behind Nicole. A smile crept across his face as he saw the worried look on her face. He was expecting what would happen between them next.
Out loud, he said, "Why are you in such a hurry?"
He stopped and gave Nicole's hand a tug, pulling her into his arms. Then, he put his chin on her shoulder and felt his body temperature rising as he breathed onto her.
"I think you misunderstood. I wasn't the one who?—"
But before Nicole could finish her sentence, Kerr directly kissed her on her red lips.
Nicole's eyes widened in surprise. Feeling his hot body on hers, she tried to push him away, but he was too strong.
"Kerr! Wake up!"
she yelled, pinching his face to bring him back to his senses.
"Nicole, what are you doing?" Sunny asked loudly, walking over to them at this moment.
She had been waiting at the end of the corridor, but as soon as she had seen Kerr being dragged out of by Nicole, she had known that there must be something wrong.
