Chapter 195 All For Him
"Finally, you're back! I'll be giving you a full check-up since you woke up and immediately bolted out of the house earlier. If you end up getting involved in another accident, I will not be held responsible for it." Images of this morning's incident ran through Harley's head. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
When Nicole left the villa for Baron's wedding earlier, Harley went to check on Kerr as usual, and found that the unconscious man was showing signs of waking up, so he didn't dare take his eyes off him.
And soon enough, Kerr woke up. As expected, Kerr immediately looked for Nicole. Upon hearing where she went, he rushed out without hesitation.
Seeing the doctor's worried expression, Nicole headed for the special medical room of the villa with Kerr right away. In order to properly care for him well in the comfort of his own home without jeopardizing his safety and ability to heal well, Harley moved a lot of medical equipment to the villa to accommodate Kerr's every need.
"How is he?" With a nervous expression plastered on her face, Nicole looked at Kerr lying on the bed and couldn't help but feel anxious about his current condition.
Scanning the examination report in his hand, Harley was relieved. "It looks good so far, nothing serious. Since he just woke up, he should pay extra attention to his diet." Looking at Kerr directly, he said, "Try to eat something that is easy to digest and don't work too hard."
But no matter what he said, he knew that Kerr would not listen to him. There were a lot of matters to be fixed within the Gu Group that needed to be dealt with urgently. Now that Kerr had woken up, he wouldn't allow Nicole to work too hard, so Harley could only ask her to take care of Kerr.
Hearing that, Nicole released a breath of relief. She smiled and held Kerr's hand.
"Don't listen to him. He is just exaggerating. I will be fine as long as you are with me." Without giving much thought to what Harley said, Kerr took Nicole's hand in his and walked out.
Looking at the retreating back of the two, Harley huffed. "How come no one listens to me? Why am I working so hard these days? I’ve done all of this for you." Harley followed them out of the room, but didn't want to disturb the couple when he saw how happy they were.
Hearing what Harley said, Nicole smiled faintly and sat with Kerr on the sofa with a contented look on her face.
"I've announced that you went abroad to handle very important projects while you were unconscious. Now that you're awake, you can recharge and take over the Gu Group again after you've rested well." With Kerr up and about, Nicole could finally relax, even for a bit. Kerr's unconscious state was an unpredictable matter, but having him beside her again made her incredibly happy.
In the meantime, Nicole had learned to rely on Kerr. She felt that as long as she had him by her side, she had nothing to fear.
When he looked at the woman who leaned against his shoulder, he felt satisfied and nodded in response. Before he could say anything, he heard someone walk in hastily from outside.
As soon as Vedder saw Kerr, he stepped forward with an embarrassed look on his face. Although he didn't want to disturb them, he was left with no choice. "Master, Miss Ning, Mrs. Gu is here."
Freya's unexpected arrival caught Vedder off guard.
Nicole's features didn't show an ounce of worry when she heard Vedder. She simply stood up calmly and said, "I'll go upstairs to change my clothes." Since Kerr was awake and well, she didn't need to face Freya anymore.
Moreover, Freya didn't try to hide her disapproval of her, and she wanted to avoid conflict as much as she could. Even if Kerr didn't care, she didn't want to embarrass him.
Kerr already knew what was going on through her mind, so he gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead, let go of her hand and watched her walk upstairs.
It wasn't until Nicole disappeared from his sight that the smile on Kerr's face slowly disappeared. He looked at the older man beside him and asked, "Did she come when I was still in a coma?"
He knew his mother well. He had disappeared for such a long time, and the situation in the company had already gotten serious. Right now, his mother would come here not because she was worried about his safety, but for fear that the Gu Group would be taken away by others.
Upon hearing the question, Vedder nodded his head and replied, "Yes, your mother came here when you were in a coma. Miss Ning didn't tell your mother the truth."
"In order to protect you, Miss Ning asked Mrs. Gu to transfer her shares of the Gu Group to you. But your mother asked Miss Ning to leave you."
The older man had overheard the conversation between Freya and Nicole that day. Vedder was loyal to Kerr, so he would never hide such a thing from him and really felt that it was a hard decision for Nicole to make.
Kerr was not surprised to hear that, and a sneer stayed on his face. He knew that this was the way people in the Gu family did things. But he was afraid that Nicole might be feeling upset and alone with no one to share the burden with.
"Did she agree?"
Kerr knew that with Nicole‘s personality, as long as things were good for him, she would definitely agree to his mother's terms. But this wasn't what Kerr wanted. He just wanted to be with Nicole.
"Yes, she had promised Mrs. Gu that as long as she transferred her shares to you, she would leave you." Vedder knew that Nicole made this decision for the sake of Kerr.
"Master, Miss Ning really loves you," Not wanting to let Kerr misunderstand Nicole, Vedder wanted to explain for her, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Kerr.
"You don’t need to explain. No one knows her better than I do. I know she did all this for me." Instead of blaming her, Kerr would only feel remorse for not being there for her.
Vedder nodded. When he felt that Freya was almost there, he walked out of the door to welcome her.
Sitting on the sofa, Kerr was waiting for his mother, while he was lost, deep in his thoughts.
A lot of things had happened during his absence, but none of them were beyond his expectation. This made him certain that his decisions were correct.
"Kerr? Aren't you abroad? When did you come back?" When entering the living room, Freya was obviously surprised to see Kerr. She only heard that he went abroad, but didn't receive any news about him coming back.
Hearing the voice of his mother, Kerr didn't stand up. Instead, he said indifferently to Vedder, "Uncle Vedder, please ask all the servants to leave. I have something to talk with Mrs. Gu."
With the hint of Kerr, Vedder asked all the servants to leave the living room.
Hearing that Kerr called her that way, Freya could not help but frown. She went to sit down opposite to Kerr. Looking at his expressionless face, she seemed to have been accustomed to his coldness.
"You are just in time. You'd better get this thing done as soon as possible." Then she took out a file from her bag and placed it to Kerr.
"This is a share transfer agreement. I'm going to transfer my shares in the Gu Group to you."
