Chapter 139 Reveal Her Identity

"Ma'am, Master Kerr will come to understand you someday."

Cherry comforted Freya in the car. She also knew that it would take more than a day or two to undo the
misunderstanding between Kerr and Freya.

"Maybe."

Despite her distress, Freya couldn't blame Kerr for his attitude. She had failed as a mother when she
didn't give him enough care or love growing up. Therefore, her son wasn't close to her now.

Once she realized her fault, she had been determined to do her best to make it up for the time they'd
lost.

After Freya's departure, Kerr's features gradually softened. His hand, previously holding tightly to
Nicole's, also started to loosen its grip. For a moment, he seemed relaxed.

"Kerr, are you okay?"

Nicole held Kerr's hand with concern.

"Don't mind what she said. It's my business who I choose to be with, and nobody has anything to do
with this. Besides, I wouldn't let Jay leave us either."

Kerr stretched out his arms and pulled Nicole into an embrace. Now that his secret was exposed to his
family, he didn't want to hide his relationship with Nicole from the world any longer.

Maybe this was the best way to protect her.

"You don't need to be so tense, Kerr. I don't think your mother wants me to leave you. I suppose she is
just testing me."



From the beginning, Freya Qin remained polite to Nicole. Compared to the threat she got from the man
on the day before, Freya hardly put any pressure on Nicole.

In fact, she didn't mind much that Freya came to see her. After all, when she decided to be with Kerr,
she knew that sooner or later she would have to face the Gu family.

"Tonight, I'll reveal your identity in the banquet. I won't let anyone hurt you,"

Kerr said confidently.

Seeing the stern look in his eyes, Nicole parted her lips to argue but eventually gave up. Deep down,
she knew that perhaps this was the best option for them.

Hand in hand, Nicole and Kerr walked out of the coffee shop. As soon as Harley spotted them, he got
out of the car.

"So what was that about?"

Although Harley knew that Freya could be ruthless, he wasn't quite sure if she had come to Nicole in
the name of the Gu family or only for herself.

"I'll announce something tonight at the Gu Group celebration party. You must come and look after
Nicole for me. Where's Ken?"

Afraid that there could be trouble at the party, Kerr only trusted Harley Su and Ken Qin to help him.

"Ken is away, so I'll take Harrow tonight. See you then."

Harley promptly picked up on what Kerr meant, requiring both him and Ken at the party. But Ken was
busy with the project on Sea Heart Island and wouldn't be able to return in time for it. So he had the
idea of calling Harrow to replace him.



With everything settled between him and Kerr, Harley turned around towards his car but heard Nicole's
voice before he could get in.

"Hold on, Dr. Su!" Nicole had an apologetic look on her face as she called him.

"You lent me your car yesterday, but it has been an accident and I haven't had the opportunity to tell
you about it yet."

She never called that man again, nor did she have the chance to get the car fixed.

"You've been in another car accident? When did it happen? And why didn't you tell me?"

Looking down at Nicole, Kerr demanded apprehensively. The memory of her last car crash was still
fresh for him.

"Someone hit it on the rear end. It's not a big deal, I just haven't had the time to have it fixed for Dr. Su
yet,"

Nicole nervously explained as she turned to meet Kerr's hard gaze.

"I'll ask Jared to arrange a driver for you later. From now on, you won't be driving anywhere by
yourself."

He couldn't tolerate such accidents, especially one involving Nicole.

"You are overreacting."

Embarrassed, Nicole lowered her head as if she was a child who had done something wrong.

"Don't worry about it. Ask Mr. Gu to buy me a new one,"

Harley answered her with a smile. He then waved to Kerr before getting into his car and driving away.



"Mommy, have Uncle Kerr chased the bad guys away?"

Jay ran to Nicole and held her hand, anxious to know what happened.

"Jay, don't talk nonsense. It was all a misunderstanding. That lady isn't a bad person. She just wanted
to speak with mommy." Nicole squatted down to be at an eye level with Jay, so he could understand
her clearly.

Since Freya was Kerr's mother, it meant that she would be Jay's grandmother in the future. Thus she
couldn't let Jay have a bad impression of her.

Kerr also crouched, but only to pick up Jay. Afterward, he led the child to his car silently as if he was
annoyed by something.

Nicole followed closely behind Kerr. At some point, she glanced towards him, but he wasn't looking at
her.

When Jared noticed that Nicole, Kerr and Jay were settled in the back seat, he drove straight to the Gu
Group studio. There, he parked at the front gate and turned to speak with Jay.

"Jay, how about I take you to try on your gown?"

Glancing between the two people beside him, Jay reached out to Jared and gestured for him to take
him away quickly.

Once Jay and Jared left, Nicole looked sideways at Kerr, who was still silent. Immediately, she frowned.

"Are you mad at me? Why?"

Kerr looked further annoyed when he heard Nicole's words. Turning his gaze towards her, he reached
out and got her pressed against the back seat.



"Nicole, do you understand the danger you've been through? Do you realize how much I worry about
you? How do you think I would feel if something happened to you in that accident?"

He couldn't accept that she didn't see the crash as a big deal. Even though he knew she didn't say
those words on purpose, he was enraged by them.

"That's why you're mad at me? I don't mean to worry you. I know you care about me, and I promise I
won't put myself in another dangerous situation again, okay? Just please don't be mad."

With a gentle smile on her lips, Nicole lifted a hand and caressed Kerr's face. She could understand his
fear because, as much as he was afraid of losing her, she was also scared of losing him.

Feeling Nicole's soft touch on his skin, Kerr finally began to relax and loosen all his tight muscles.
However, he chose to keep his face straight for the time being.

"There won't be a next time, do you hear me? I will never let you face any danger by yourself."

Since Kerr had met Nicole, she had been his weakness. If anything ever happened to her, it wouldn't
affect her alone.
