My CEO Daddy

Kerr deliberately trailed off to tease Nicole.

"And what? Are you trying to have a wife and a lot of mistresses?"

Nicole tightened her grip on Kerr's ear, threatening him. Her eyes glistened with anger.

She could tell that Sunny loved Kerr, but she did not know that they had already been engaged. She felt cheated, and her resolve began to shake.

"I would've married her if you hadn't shown up. Even if I had, it wouldn't have mattered that much because it would've been a marriage between two businesses and not at all based on love.

It's to forge an alliance between the Gu Group and the He Group. I never agreed to it, and I can't care less about it now. I want my wife to be somebody I love,"

Kerr explained to Nicole firmly.

He wanted to give Nicole a strong sense of security, and he cared about who he married now because of her.

Grandpa Cheng once told him that when he really fell in love with a woman, he would want her to be his own. He would want her to be happy and at peace. Most of all, he would want to marry her for love, not for some business deal.

At that time, Kerr did not understand how Grandpa Cheng felt. Now, he understood why Grandpa Cheng was willing to give up everything just to be with Grandma Cheng.

"Really? Kerr, I can't share you with another woman. That's my condition. I hope you understand."

Nicole was a stubborn woman. Once she made up her mind, nothing could ever change it. What was hers was hers.

"I understand. I meant what I said. I just hope I can win your trust before we leave here."

Kerr had already talked with the Gu family about the dissolu

eatening to freeze her.

She looked up at him.

"What? Are you jealous?"

Nicole was genuinely surprised.

She didn't expect the CEO of the Gu Group would get jealous.

"He's up to no good with you."

Kerr was sure about that. He knew what Baron thought of Nicole, and he had disliked him way before he caught feelings for Nicole.

"Haha! You're overthinking again, Kerr. Baron's a good friend. He helped me when I was in Manhattan and when I gave birth to Jay. I owe him."

Nicole was young and ignorant during her time abroad. Baron helped her through the transition, so she was grateful to him.

But Nicole did realize what Baron wanted from her. She knew they couldn't be together when she decided to keep Jay.

"He never would have had a chance with you had I come into the picture earlier."

Kerr sat beside Nicole and put his arm around her. Nicole rested her head on his shoulder.

Even if he had not asked Nicole about it, Kerr knew how difficult it was for her to raise Jay without her family and friends by her side.

"Believe me, Kerr," Nicole said.
