The Reunion After Seven Years

Chapter 165 Unaccustomed To The New Environment

If Jay knew that they hadn't gone out for business, he would have been disappointed.

"You called it a business trip, then this should be a business trip."

As a matter of fact, when Kerr had been outside with Nicole, his mind was whirring with thoughts and plans. The most important idea was to help the little woman to get over the disturbance and to distract Moore's focus.

He really wanted to see what evil things Moore would do while he was away, so that he could find an opportunity to strike back. But this time, he didn't intend to give Moore another chance.

He switched on his laptop and set it on his lap. Leaning back against the sofa, he looked at the messages from Jared on the screen, and his eyes were clear.

This time, Kerr didn't bring Jared with him because he wanted him to keep an eye on Moore.

"Mr. Gu, the lunch is ready."

A middle-aged man in a white suit bowed respectfully to Kerr.

Kerr set down his notebook and took Nicole's hand, leading her to the dining room. Seeing all the delicious delicacies on the lunch table, she suddenly felt hungry.

As she was about to sit on the chair next to Kerr, she felt his hand suddenly pull her to him. She found herself sitting on his lap instead. Looking at the servants and housekeeper standing station along the walls, she blushed furiously.

She wriggled slightly in his grasp and was about to push him away. But she saw the firm look in his eyes and had no choice but to let him do as he wanted.

Nicole felt extremely satisfied when Kerr began to feed her.

As she chewed and enjoyed the flavors of the food in her mouth, Nicole suddenly felt her stomach churn. She reached out her hand and pushed Kerr away, and covering her mouth, she ran towards the washroom.

"Nicole?"

Seeing her dash away, Kerr put down his tableware, stood up and quickly followed after her.

Leaning on the wash basin, she was spitting out all the food she had eaten. Only then did she feel somewhat better. She turned on the tap and rinsed her mouth with water. After that, she straightened.

"Are you feeling better now?"

Kerr looked nervously at Nicole's pale face, and his eyes were filled with concern. He reached out and held her shoulder, and he questioned her seriously.

Hearing the concern in his voice, Nicole just felt tired and shook her head.

Reaching out his arms, Kerr easily scooped Nicole up and carried her towards their bedroom on the second floor. After he had put her on the bed, he ordered the butler to call their doctor for her.

"Don't worry. I'm fine. Perhaps I ate too fast just now? But I feel much better now."

She held his hand. Actually she was not that fragile, and she didn't want him to make a fuss over her.

But Kerr was still worried about her. Fortunately, the doctor came soon and examined her carefully. Then he turned around and respectfully said to him,

"Mr. Gu, don't worry. Miss Ning is just adjusting to the new environment. I'll prescribe some medicine for her right now and have it delivered here later."

The doctor had a meaningful look on his face as he pushed his glasses along his narrow nose.

With all his attention focused on Nicole, Kerr noticed nothing odd, and he waved his hand, indicating the butler to go out with the doctor to fetch the medicine. Seeing his hinted instruction, the butler and the doctor left the bedroom together.

At the gate of the villa, the doctor looked back at the second floor window, his eyes full of worry.

"We have to inform the young master of this matter. Although it appears that she might be pregnant, it has not been confirmed. If she needs blood tests, I'm afraid it will arouse Kerr's suspicions," the doctor said.

The butler nodded. He took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. The call was soon answered.

"What is it?"

the man on the other end of the line asked in a lazy voice.

"It seems that Nicole Ning is showing some signs of being pregnant. But it's still only a guess. If she's really pregnant, should we let her keep the child?"

The man's voice became low when he heard the butler's voice. "The Gu family doesn't need this baby at all."

Then he hung up the phone.

The butler put away his mobile phone and pulled the doctor aside. "Never mind the tests, she will have an abortion. There is no need to confirm it," the butler explained.

The doctor understood at once.

On the second floor of the villa

Lying in bed, Nicole saw the nervous look on Kerr's face and felt a trace of disappointment. In fact, at that moment when the doctor checked up on her, she also had a lurking suspicion in her heart.

After all, Nicole had already been pregnant with Jay before, so she still knew how it felt. Her period had been delayed for a week. She had begun to think that Jay's younger sister might appear.

Now it seemed that she had been overthinking.

"What are you thinking about?"

Kerr noticed that Nicole was absent-minded and thought she was still not feeling well, so he asked her.

Nicole shook her head. She didn't want to disappoint Kerr. After all, they were still young, and they would have more children. Besides, now was not a good time for them to build on their family. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

"Nothing. I'm just thinking that I'm so unlucky. It's not often that I go out and have fun. But I vomited on our first day here."

She sat up. In fact, after vomiting, she had felt much better. True to her nature, she didn't pretend to be sick at all. When she felt better, she didn't want to lie in bed anymore.

But Kerr looked at her nervously.

"Don't push yourself. Just lie back."

He wanted for Nicole to lie in bed, but she refused.

"I'm fine, really. The food was just a little rich, and I threw it up, but I'm a little hungry now."

Nicole touched her flat stomach and looked at Kerr with a smile, like a bird waiting for her mother to feed her.

"You naughty girl."

Kerr then instructed the cook to prepare some light food, and he fed her little by little.

The butler stood beside the door with a tray in his hands and knocked on the door.

He didn't enter until he got the permission from Kerr.

"Master Kerr, this is Miss Ning's medicine. The doctor said she has to take it after meals."

Then he put the tray with the glass and the pills he had brought on the nightstand, and the butler stood aside.

As Kerr was about to pass the glass to Nicole, his phone rang. So, he had to put down the glass, stood up, and walked to the balcony to take the call.

Nicole looked at the white pill with a frown creasing her brow. When she looked at the butler, she suddenly had a suspicion that something was wrong.
