Chapter 31 Nothing Is Impossible

Nicole raised her right hand to her forehead as Lily was curious to hear what Nicole had to say.

"I guess that whatever the rumor is, it has spread until the last corner of this company, am I wrong?"
Even though she never cared about gossiping, she wanted to know how people were talking about her.
"Do you know what everybody is saying?"

She had always believed that there was no need to feel guilty about something that had never
happened. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to bear the pressure of bringing her son to life.
However, if the circumstances were different and the rumor was related to Kerr, she would totally mind
it without doubting.

Kerr was the unhealthiest and most dangerous person for her to have around. If possible, it'd be the
best if there was no contact with him in any aspect.

Lily looked at Nicole as she leaned towards her a bit and cautiously told her the rumor.

"From my perspective, it isn't something of a big deal to be honest. Somebody spread the word that
you deliberately wanted Mr. Gu to accompany you to the bathroom and that his feelings for you were
special."

Kerr was the type of guy to keep a low profile, even though he was famously known as a legendary
figure throughout the city since he became the CEO of the Gu Group. It was rare for most of the
employees of the company to see him in person.

Curious about their CEO's private life, the staff didn't stop spreading the rumors. After all, even if they
had never met him, he was still the idol of many female employees in the company.

"So they said that I seduced Kerr, right?" Nicole could tell the hesitation on Lily's face and instantly
found out what the rumor was truly about. "So now all the women here will hate me because I



supposedly seduced their biggest crush."

She took a deep breath and sighed as a helpless feeling emerged inside of her.

She obviously couldn't control and be aware of what people said in the company's corridors. It seemed
that she should really distance herself from Kerr from now on. However, avoiding him had always been
a hard mission to accomplish, especially now since she apparently was a subordinate of him.

And he certainly would be glad about all this arousing suspicion.

"I don't think that the situation is that bad, Director Ning. So, do you really have a thing for Mr. Gu?"

Lily had a good impression of Nicole. Nicole was capable at work, so she respected her very much.
She never spoke ill of Nicole behind her back, so she asked her the question straightforwardly.

"What makes you think that?" Nicole kept a straight look at her with a smile as she softly tapped her
forehead. "I have my beautiful child. Do you think he will fall in love with a woman who has a child?"
These made up rumors were quite harmless to Nicole as she couldn't care less of what others thought
of her.

The only person that knew for real what was going on in her life was herself.

However, she was still curious.

She couldn't understand Kerr's attitude towards her since it was evident that he knew she had a son.
Therefore, she was not sure about his true self.

Then what could the reason be that made Kerr say something like that to her? 'Could it be? Could he
actually be in love with me after all? Wait, no. What am I even thinking? It's impossible.' She quickly
discarded that unrealistic idea. The only reason that would make sense to her right now was that he
was a womanizer.



That was the only way for her to comprehend why he was always chasing her around.

Suddenly, Jared knocked on the door of the office as Lily was about to lead her way out after her
conversation with Nicole.

"I'm sorry to interrupt. Mr. Gu would like to see you, Director Ning."

"Ha, ha! That couldn't be more on point."

Lily let her emotions to take over and burst into laughter after hearing Jared, but she immediately held
herself back.

She turned around to look at Nicole and jokingly said to her with a wide left to right smile on her face,
"Nothing is impossible."

Right after Jared said Kerr's demand, Nicole heavily smashed a pen that she was holding against the
table as she swiftly stood up from her seat and picked up her folder. She firmly walked towards Kerr's
office with a solid posture.

Her steps were so loud that it seemed like she was preparing to outbreak a war to annihilate a whole
army with her bare hands.

She thought to herself as she was ready to crush the door, 'Kerr will always think that I'm not brave
enough to stand against him if I don't reveal myself to him.'

Jared decided to follow her and he was ready to act in case that any incident may happen since he
noticed how pissed Nicole was.

She smacked the door open and strode to Kerr's desk and threw her folder in front of him. At this point,
even the funniest joke wouldn't make her laugh.



"Did you want to see me? I'm right here in front of you. I don't have all day. Are you done?" The least
thing that she wanted was to be entangled with Kerr and be known as the public enemy of the
company. But her peaceful life had been disturbed because of his annoying and persistent attitude
towards her.

"If you don't stop harassing me even at my job, I'll quit."

Kerr never expected her to behave like that.

"Director Ning, are you alright? I just need your help for a business matter. Could you do me a favor?
You know that this project will bring huge benefits to the Gu Group. I'd like to keep everything cool so
nothing can go wrong."

He gave a straight and serious look at her like never before. It seemed that he only needed her for his
work this time.

"I have sent Jared to call you several times, but you didn't show up until now. Is everything okay?"

The only thing for sure in the office was that Nicole was absolutely mad at Kerr and he was aware of
that. And the fact that he just wanted to talk about business made her anger even bigger.

Nicole seemed to cool down a little but she was still ready to strike like a cat with sharp claws. Kerr
knew that if he wanted to keep her close to him, he must take care of himself and prevent her from
hurting him.

"I have the planning proposal right here. I'll explain the details to you." She just proceeded to open the
folder as she was sitting opposite to Kerr and noticed his serious look on his face. All of a sudden, she
ran out of words.



She started to feel a bit disappointed because she couldn't vent her anger at all. Her face was still
heated up after her emotional explosion.

If Kerr hadn't turned the situation into a business matter, the story would've been different.

It was so hard for her to see through his mind. Kerr was not an ordinary and simple man to break.

There was just no clue to find out what he wanted to get. Thus, it seemed like her mouth was
automatically shut in front of him.

It was time for seriousness to come into the office.

"I have made some adjustments to our partnership with the Chu Group. The only thing they're asking
me to do is to provide some technical support under their charge.

If this is the case, then our profits can't be maximized anymore. Therefore, I suggest that we can come
into other agreements with them. Since this is our first time cooperating with the Chu Group, they will
obviously have their concerns.

But I think that they will be down to be involved in a new long-term partnership contract."

Nicole was an excellent student when she was studying in Manhattan. She was recognized to be quite
talented in business as if she was born for it. Although she had her own problems and struggles in her
life, she would make sure to leave no error or mistake behind at work.
