Chapter 149 Dog Eats Dog
"You can rest assured. The Gu family will naturally accept him. As for those who have made trouble out of nothing, the Gu family no longer welcomes them. Please leave immediately."
Freya's eyes rested on Sunny, but the implication of her words was leveled against Fiona and Gregory. For nobody knew better than Freya what the reason they had come here was,
and why they had made such a mess. It was closely related to Sunny. Given the situation, asking them to leave was effectively preventing Sunny from being pointed out.
"Exactly! I didn't expect you to be so shameless as to make trouble at the Gu family's celebration party. Get out of here right now!"
Sunny understood Freya's intentions at once, so she pretended to drive Fiona and Gregory away because she was afraid that they would give up the game like Sven had.
Gregory thought of the day when Kerr had broken his arm. That day, he had just scolded Nicole a little but was beaten by Kerr for his efforts. Today he had caused such massive trouble, and he feared what Kerr would do to him now.
Thinking of this, Gregory immediately got to his feet and walked towards the door.
"Stop!"
Kerr didn't plan for the insults to go unanswered. Otherwise, he would still have to face their trouble in the future. Today, he was determined to make an example of them as a warning to others.
After Jared heard what Kerr said, he immediately walked to the door, stood in front of Gregory, and blocked his exit.
"Mr. Song and Miss Zhao, please wait."
Gregory looked up at Jared and couldn't help shivering at the thought of what was to come.
The formerly arrogant man immediately became nervous, almost quaking in his boots, but Nicole was as calm as a cucumber. She stood quietly behind Kerr. From now on, she had to learn to rely on Kerr.
So, she decided to let him deal with it.
Holding both Nicole's and Jay's hands, Kerr led them to take a seat on the sofa, and then he turned around, looking at everyone in the room with contempt, like a noble ruler about to pass a verdict.
"I'm giving it back to you. Your phone," Jay said.
He handed the phone back to Kerr, but before the man could take it, the phone accidentally slipped from between Jay's fingers.
Landing on the floor, a clear conversation began playing over the phone's speakers.
"When the time comes, you will point out Nicole Ning as the woman who had slept with you seven years ago, and you will claim the child of Nicole Ning as your own."
When Fiona recognized her own voice, she was taken aback.
"Will it work? Seven years ago, you told me that the woman walked into the wrong room. I waited for her for the whole night in vain."
Sven's recorded voice was full of frustration. Even though it had been seven years, he was still consumed by anger.
"It's not a big deal. After this incident, you will reap the benefits of your assistance. In fact, you will not lose anything at all. That night, although you failed to see Nicole Ning, you didn't invest in the Song Group either, did you?"
There was a hint of obvious resentment in Gregory's voice.
"That's your word. But it's not enough to make the Gu family believe me."
Sven still sounded hesitant.
"You don't have to worry about that. We have prepared a fake paternity test, and it will magically be discovered at the right time. It's the best kind of evidence. Even if Nicole had 100 mouths, she wouldn't be able to refute it."
Fiona spoke proudly on the recording.
"Even if Nicole claims that Jay is Kerr's son, she couldn't prove it."
The recorded conversation stopped at that point. Everyone present had heard the plotting clearly.
A proud smile flitted across Jay's face.
Before the celebration party had started, Jay had overheard this juicy conversation. So he had recorded it and forwarded it to Kerr.
He wouldn't spare anyone who tried to bully him and his mother. But things were different now. They now enjoyed Kerr's protection.
Kerr raised his hand and gently stroked Jay's soft hair. Ignoring the phone on the floor, Kerr cast a scornful glance at Gregory who was standing opposite him.
"Mr. Gu, please hear me. It's all a misunderstanding. I was also misled, and I believed that Nicole was lying to you. I didn't want you to be deceived."
Gregory was trembling with fear as Kerr's stare scared him to the core. He tried immediately to explain to him.
"Yeah, we were also lied to. Mr. Gu, please understand our situation."
But while Fiona agreed with Gregory, she turned to look at Sunny. It was easy to tell from Sunny's brooding eyes that if they dared to sell her out, they would be hung out to dry. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
All Fiona could do was to lower her head and desperately search for a way to escape.
"By whom?"
Even though Kerr knew without a shadow of doubt that this had to do with Sunny, he still wanted to force the confession from their lips.
Hearing the question, Gregory turned to look at Fiona.
"Mr. Gu, it's all that bitch's doing. She has always been jealous of Nicole, so she has been scheming to discredit me. Seven years ago, she was the one who seduced me and tricked me into giving Nicole to Sven.
I didn't expect that I would lead to Mr. Gu meeting Nicole. Given that I didn't do anything serious, please forgive me."
In desperation, Gregory had no choice but to throw Fiona under the bus, making her the scapegoat for all the blame. In this way, he didn't have to offend Sunny.
His wishful thinking was a desperate act, but he forgot that Fiona was not a pushover.
Hearing him point the finger at her, Fiona became furious. Since she had married into the Song family, she had never experienced a good day. Seven years ago, Sven didn't get Nicole, so he didn't invest in the Song Group.
As a matter of fact, the Song Group had been facing a gradual decline under the leadership of Gregory Song. Now that he even planned to let her take the fall, how could she accept it?
"You're such a bastard, Gregory Song. You told me that you wanted to break up with Nicole long ago because she was so conservative, so you came to me and used her to secure investment from the Tang Group. Now you want me to be the only one who takes the blame? No way!"
Fiona screeched as she clawed at Gregory's clothes with fierce rage etched on her face.
Seeing the dog-eat-dog scene, Nicole felt saddened. The couple should have enjoyed a close relationship, but they ran their separate ways once disaster struck.
As Nicole looked up, she subconsciously looked at Kerr next to her, and her eyes sank into his gentle ones.
