Chapter 138 No One Can Make You Give Up On Me

At the Gu Group

Sitting in the CEO's office and looking at the documents Jared had prepared, Kerr's face remained
aloof. Suddenly, his mobile phone rang, interrupting his train of thoughts.

"What is it?"

Upon hearing Harley's message, Kerr was taken aback. He jumped up and rushed towards the door.

"Text me the address," he ordered.

Then, Kerr immediately hung up the phone and drove his car at high speeds all the way to the cafe.

Inside the coffee shop, Nicole sat opposite Freya and gazed at her curiously.

"How do you know Kerr?"

Freya took up the small spoon in her coffee cup and stirred the dark liquid gently. Her attitude was
casual, but she was studying Nicole's reactions.

"I was appointed by the human resources department of the Gu Group. During my work as director of
the project department, I met Kerr."

Nicole didn't breathe a word of what had happened seven years ago. After all, she didn't know
everything about it, and she hadn't discussed it with Kerr either.

"He likes you very much. How about you?"

Freya raised her head and looked at Nicole calmly, but her words were laced with meaning.

With a firmness deep inside her eyes, Nicole made eye contact with Freya.



"I love Kerr. I had hesitated at first. I am well aware of the differences between me and Kerr. Though we
are not from the same world, we couldn't avoid our love in the end."

This was the most dominating thought in her heart, and also the most truthful. She did not want to hide
it from Freya. Even if Kerr had been here, she would have said it exactly the same way.

Even though she knew that Kerr's mother being here was with the intent to force her to leave Kerr, she
still planned to work hard. After all, they had gotten together because of love.

"Love? How much do you think you love him? How much do you believe that he loves you?"

Freya had never experienced the kind of emotion that Nicole just mentioned. All her instincts refused to
believe her. Perhaps it was because she had witnessed so many conflicts of interest, she had become
accustomed to the world's indifference.

"We have not been together for long yet. So, I can't say how much I love him. However, I know that as
long as he still loves me, I will stay by his side. No one can make me give up on him, except for him."

This was what Nicole had pledged to Kerr. They were joined by their love, so there was only one
reason that could ever separate them, which was if they no longer loved each other.

"You are brave."

Freya could see the courage and firmness in Nicole's eyes. She remained calm as she faced Freya,
and she seemed more honest than other girls. Even Sunny who had known her for many years still hid
many things when she faced her.

"So, that's why the great Mrs. Gu wanted to see me?"

Nicole felt strange when she saw the smile curving on Freya's face.



It gave her a feeling that Freya was not here to make her leave Kerr.

"I'm just curious about what kind of girl Kerr likes. Do you have a son?"

Although the information she had collected was very specific and detailed, Freya still wanted to hear it
from Nicole's own lips.

"Yes, I do. He's six years old. I'm sorry that I can't share the truth with you. Mrs. Gu, I don't want to lie
to you, so please don't question me about Jay's father."

Nicole would announce Jay to be Kerr's son as a surprise once Kerr married her. But until then, she
didn't want anyone to know about his lineage.

After all, the Gu family had more reasons for not wanting her to stay with Kerr. It was not only because
of Jay, but also because of the difference in their standing.

"What if I asked you to choose between your son and Kerr? What would you do?"

Freya knew that Nicole wouldn't relinquish her son, and that Kerr had already accepted her son. But
she still wanted to determine the strength of her relationship with Kerr.

After all, if they really decided to be together, it would mean that they would have to face a lot of
difficulties. It would be even more of a burden to have a child involved in the mix.

"I... Mrs. Gu, you are also a mother. Would you be able to make such a choice?"

As soon as she heard Freya's question, Nicole became nervous. After all, it concerned Jay's safety,
and it was the same choice as what the people from yesterday had given her.

As expected, Freya was aware of the Gu family's threat to Nicole.

"I can't give up Jay, but neither can I give up Kerr. They are both the most important people in my life."



Nicole's answer was spoken with a firm resolve, but only she knew her own confusion. After all, she
knew how difficult it would be to try and make the best of both worlds.

"Miss Ning, by now, you should know that you can't always have your cake and eat it in this world."

Freya put down the spoon in her hand and leaned back in her chair as if she was very disappointed
with Nicole's answers.

"I don't want to lose Kerr..."

Nicole lowered her head to hide her sorrow in the thick lashes that framed her eyes. Losing Kerr was
what she feared the most, but she had to face it.

"No one can ever force you to give up on me."

Kerr's firm voice sounded from outside as he pushed the door to the private room open and entered.
He glanced at Nicole and walked to her with a natural elegance, putting his arm around her shoulders.

Turning back, he looked at Freya, and his face became stormy like a winter sky. He had never thought
that his mother would argue with his father while at the same time she'd try to force Nicole to leave him.

The warmth that had once resided in Kerr's heart for his mother completely disappeared in this
moment.

Nicole stared up at Kerr in surprise.

"What are you doing here?"

Seeing the concerned look on Kerr's face, Freya could guess what he was thinking, but she didn't say
anything.



"This is my choice. It's my personal affair. Whether this concerns Jay or Nicole, they are both mine. I
will not let either of them leave me."

His tone was so resolute that there could be no doubt.

With these words, he was warning both Freya and the Gu family.

"Kerr... Please don't speak like that."

Nicole could read the anger that Kerr had towards his mother from his words and dark looks.

She didn't want to be the cause of conflict between Kerr and Freya.

"It's time for me to be leaving now."

Freya stood up and headed outside, her face showing no sign of dissatisfaction at Kerr's words. It
seemed that she was quite accustomed to his indifference, but a sallow light of disappointment shone
on her face.

Cherry stood near the door and looked meaningfully at Kerr. She wanted to say something, but finally,
she simply turned and followed Freya as she left.
