"Were you able to transfuse blood to Jay?"
When Nicole saw how pale Kerr looked, she felt bad for him.
Nicole knew that Kerr would be able to transfuse blood to Jay because Kerr was her son's real father. But right now, Kerr knew nothing about that fact. She was actually rather impressed that Kerr would go through all of that just to save the life of a child who had nothing to do with him.
Kerr wasn't usually the type who liked to meddle with other people's business. But why did he do that? Nicole somewhat knew the answer in her heart.
Upon hearing that, Kerr gave Nicole a bright smile and gently held her soft hands.
"It wasn't that big of a deal. I told you he would be fine. I promised you that I wouldn't let anything happen to him. I never break any of my promises."
He had disappointed Nicole when he couldn't explain himself during their previous misunderstanding. However, now the situations were different. Since he had the power to save her son, he wouldn't disappoint her again. He had to keep his promise this time.
In fact, Kerr would do everything to save Jay even if Nicole wasn't around.
"Why did you save a boy that had nothing to do with you?"
Tears were threatening to come out of Nicole's eyes, but she took a deep breath and managed to hold them back.
Nicole suddenly had an idea in her mind, but she couldn't believe that she even thought of it.
"Because he..." Kerr paused and blinked at her."He is your son. I love you, Nicole, and I am willing to love him too like he was my own child, " Kerr finally said.
Kerr didn't want to hide his feelings from Nicole anymore. He just wanted to express his love for her clearly.
He couldn't even begin to imagine how devastated he would be if the car accident had taken Nicole's and Jay's lives. It would crush him.
It was the first time that he wanted to badly let Nicole know how much he loved her. He loved the child too, even though he wasn't related to him by blood.
Ken, who stood next to them, widened his eyes in shock at Kerr's statement. Ken even thought that maybe he was hearing things.
Nicole gave Kerr the
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again. But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
thought that she had finally buried her feelings for him, Kerr would find a way to dig it out once again.
Maybe fate just liked playing tricks on her? The repeated disappointments made her cautious of his intentions. She had no idea whether she should let Kerr back in her life once more or not.
If love always came with pain, she would rather live without either of them.
"Don't worry. He will be okay. I will not let anything bad happen to him, "
Kerr said with confidence.
Kerr felt that the car accident was kind of a blessing in disguise. He felt bad for even thinking about it but without the accident, he wouldn't have had any reason to get close to her like this. If he hadn't been there, he might have lost both Nicole and Jay.
Nicole did not say anything.
She was a little worried that Kerr would figure out that he was actually Jay's father. It was definitely dangerous but judging from Kerr's actions, he was not suspicious of anything... yet.
Even though Nicole did not feel sleepy at all, her eyes slowly closed because of the calming ingredients in her medicine.
Listening to Nicole's steady and soft breathing, Kerr gently kissed the top of her head. He opened his eyes and looked at her with concern.
"Nicole?"
The door suddenly opened and revealed Bonnie on the other side of the door. She opened her mouth to say something but quickly halted when she locked eyes with Kerr.
