The Reunion After Seven Years

Chapter 205 You Need To Be Very Crafty

Sunny broke free from the stranger’s grip. She felt the person familiar as she looked at his back and frowned.

"Miss He, long time no see," said Moore, turning around to counter her gaze.

Seeing who he was, she was surprised and relieved. "Moore? Why are you here?" Moore rarely attended parties.

It was obvious that Moore had a purpose, and that he had come well-prepared.

But she wasn't feeling very interested in Moore's intentions. She was more concerned about Kerr. Now that she finally saw him alone, she didn't want to let him go so easily.

Glancing in the direction of the party hall, Sunny kept a continuous watch on Kerr.

"You want to get together with Kerr? If so, I'm afraid you'll need to be very crafty. From what I can gather, it seems that Nicole is pregnant with Kerr's child. With this child, I'm afraid that she will finally succeed in marrying into the Gu family."

Moore spoke in a sly and thoughtful voice, deliberately trying to provoke Sunny. He knew that Sunny also wanted to marry into the Gu family, and she was worried that Nicole might replace her.

It had occurred to Moore that if he wanted to get rid of the child in Nicole's belly, maybe he didn't need to do it directly.

Sunny was shocked to hear Moore's news. "Is Nicole pregnant? Why didn't I know anything about it?" Sunny hadn't noticed anything wrong with Nicole the last time she saw her.

On the other hand, she knew that Moore had no reason to deceive her. Envious feelings surged through her heart and she couldn't help frowning at the idea of Nicole carrying Kerr's child.

"In order to protect Nicole, Kerr naturally tried to suppress the news, but it's true. She really is pregnant. If you want to marry into the Gu family, I'm afraid you'll have to make some plans, and quickly."

Moore reminded her, hoping that she would be savvy enough to handle the situation. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

"I know what to do. I have been engaged to Kerr already. I'm the only one who is eligible to be the hostess of the Gu family."

Having said that, she turned around to leave. She had hesitated a moment before, but after hearing the news from Moore, she was determined to succeed that day.

All she had to do was become Kerr‘s woman, and then Nicole would definitely leave him.

Observing the look on Sunny‘s face, Moore gave a sly smile.

In the banquet hall, Kerr had mixed feelings as he looked at the stage. Zachary was dancing with Avery. If Nicole had been there to watch this scene, it would probably make her very happy.

When he thought of Nicole, he wished that he could fly away to her side at that very moment. Even though it was merely a day since he had seen her, he already missed her very much.

Setting down his wine glass, Kerr was about to leave the party. But when he turned around and saw Sunny walking towards him, he frowned involuntarily for a split second. However, he collected himself quickly and walked straight past Sunny, trying to pretend that he didn't see her at all.

Seeing the indifference on Kerr's face, a twinge of sadness clouded Sunny's eyes. But then she said, trying to sound calm,

"Kerr, are you so unwilling to even look at me?" It had been a long time since Kerr had ever looked her directly in the eye. He had really changed a lot after meeting Nicole.

Although he didn't really care about her, he had never been so cold to her before. It was all because of Nicole. If Nicole wasn't in his life, Kerr wouldn't be so icy and distant to her.

Sunny's expression was filled with obvious resentment by the mere thought of Nicole.

Kerr had intended to ignore her, but when he remembered the terrible things she had done to Nicole in the past, he stopped walking.

"Sunny, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. Don't even begin to imagine that your family's support is enough to make me forget what you did to Nicole. Don't try to cross the line again.

Otherwise, I swear you'll find yourself in trouble."

He wanted to make Sunny understand that she mustn't ever dare to mess with Nicole.

Kerr's stern and hostile warning wracked Sunny's heart with pain. Feeling desperate, she approached him from behind and hugged him tightly.

"Kerr, I know that I'm nothing to you. I could never accept it. I met you before she did. Why did you fall in love with Nicole instead of me?

That's why I did those stupid things. I was foolish and desperate. But now I understand. I shouldn't have done that to someone I love. Kerr, if you really like Nicole, I'm fine with it.

I know that the Gu family hasn't yet agreed to have Nicole as their daughter-in-law. I'm willing to persuade your parents on your behalf. I've already given up. I just wish you wouldn't hate me so much."

Sunny spoke with heartfelt sincerity. Tears fell down her cheeks and onto Kerr's coat.

He broke free of her grasp and took a step backward. The strong scent of her perfume disgusted him.

He knew that it would make Nicole unhappy to smell another woman's perfume on his body.

"Sunny, you'd better mean what you just said. Besides, I don't need you to persuade my parents. It's my family's business and we don't need outsiders to get involved. I hope you understand.

I love Nicole. She will marry me and no one else, so it's not a question of whether everyone in the Gu family agrees. Whatever they think, whatever they say, I will never change my mind."

Having made his defiant affirmation, he turned his heels to leave. But before he could take another step, Sunny grabbed his wrist again.

"Wait, Kerr. I know you love Nicole. Even though I did something wrong before, it wasn't wrong of me to love you. There's nothing wrong with love itself.

You can't deny that. It was my fault that I couldn't make you fall in love with me. I have accepted my fate. Can't you just not be so cold to me, Kerr?"

But seeing the resolution on Kerr's face, Sunny knew that he was still as cold-blooded as ever. Kerr had never changed, but she was still unwilling to admit it.

Kerr shook her hands away, wanting to get rid of her and go back to Nicole with no further delay.

"Don't talk nonsense. If you stay away from Nicole, I won't do anything to the He family. But if you even dare to show your face to her again, don't blame me for being ruthless.

Just stay away from me, Sunny."

There was nothing but bitterness on Sunny's face as she took two glasses of wine from a waiter passing by.
