My CEO Daddy

Chapter 133 Shared Memory

"For example, birth, death, accidents... Most of the time, we have no say in any of these. All we can do is accept it," Kerr said.

Those were things that people usually had no control over, so it was useless to worry excessively about them.

"I know. What about you? Why did you smoke? What were you thinking when I fell asleep?"

Now that Nicole had calmed down, she recalled Kerr's strange behavior from before.

She had never seen him looking so frustrated. Considering who he was and his status, it seemed impossible for him to get embarrassed or upset.

"Nothing. But I haven't forgotten what you promised me in the office today,"

Kerr reminded her, taking the opportunity to change the subject.

He didn't want to talk about his family affairs and get her worried when there was nothing she could do about them.

To his delight, the plan worked. Nicole blushed immediately and turned to look out of the window, pretending she didn't hear him. Still, his words caused her heart to skip a beat.

With Kerr, it seemed she was no longer afraid of the pain she endured in the past.

To her surprise, instead of bringing her back to the hospital, he had driven her back to the Ning family villa again.

"I know these walls are witnesses of a whole life you've had in here. Although I haven't been a part of it, I can take you back to the past while you share a little of it with me," Kerr said with a smile.

Holding Kerr's hand, Nicole walked back into the villa. Only this time, it didn't break her heart to be there. Instead, she smiled.

"Okay, I'll tell you what happened."

Nicole led Kerr to the second floor and pushed her bedroom door open. Looking at the familiar space, she felt as if she had returned seven years in the past.

It was weird not to find the house filled with her family members and laughter anymore. But now in this place, only her and Kerr.

Yet s

any news about what Jack had done to Nicole, which was atypical.

"No, it seems that Mr. and Mrs. Gu are at an impasse,"

Jared answered.

"Wait for me outside."

Kerr turned his back and went upstairs. As soon as he reached the bedroom, he noticed Nicole shifting as she slowly opened her eyes.

"Why don't you go back to sleep some more?"

Walking over her, Kerr raised his hand and stroke her cheek. She still looked a little tired.

"You didn't sleep, did you? Should we go to the company? The result of the bidding has come out. We are going to start with the new project."

Sitting up, she watched him carefully. Since Kerr didn't accept her resignation letter, and they decided to be together, she didn't want to let him down.

"It doesn't matter. You can sleep a little longer and go to work tomorrow. As usual, the Gu Group will hold a celebration party tonight, and you'll have to attend it."

Tonight it would be all about Nicole. Kerr couldn't wait for everyone to see how perfect she was. His chest ached with joy every time he remembered she had chosen to be by his side forever.

"Well, I'll go to the hospital to see Jay first. He should be able to leave today. Then I want to bring him here."

For her, this was where she belonged.
