At the ward, Jay was watching a video on his laptop screen. With a satisfied smile in his eyes, he typed
with his little hands. His fingers were unusually flexible.
Then, Jay went to an entertainment website. He typed on the keyboard, and in just a few minutes, all
the content that was about to be released had disappeared.
He sent Kerr an anonymous email, closed his laptop, and put it on the nightstand. He went back to bed
and closed his eyes.
"Nicole?"
Early in the morning, Avery Lin gently pushed the door open with a bouquet of flowers in her hand and
called out Nicole's name. But she found Jay sleeping alone on the large bed.
She walked quietly toward Jay and tucked him in. Then, she tiptoed out of the room.
"What brings you here so early, Miss Lin?"
If it were not for Kerr's panic over Nicole, Harley would have gotten more than three hours of sleep.
Kerr seemed to lose sight of everything when it came to Nicole.
"Good morning, Dr. Su."
Avery turned around and saw the casual look on Harley's face.
"You look tired. Didn't you sleep well?"
"If I tell you that I didn't sleep well because I missed you, Miss Lin, would you believe me?"
Harley stared at Avery with eyes full of tenderness.
"Yes, I would. Why not? If I say no, doesn't it mean that I'm not confident of my charm?" Avery laughed.
She had met a lot of handsome men, and almost all of them were compelled to talk to her sweetly. She
was not easily captivated.
But the admiration in Harley's eyes was strong.
"Dr. Su, Mr. Gu wants to see you in the emergency room."
Harrow approached Harley and Avery and relayed Kerr's message. His eyes glimmered with complex
emotions when he saw them laughing happily.
"You should come, too, Miss Lin. I imagine Miss Ning would want to see you."
Harley and Avery then walked to the emergency room.
At the emergency room, Kerr was fussing over Nicole.
"I'm fine. Don't worry about me."
Nicole was lying in bed with a slight smile on her face. She was feeling much better than last night,
although her head still hurt a little.
Kerr was not calming down.
"Where the hell is Harley? Does he have a death wish?"
Kerr was already getting annoyed. Harley had not checked on Nicole.
Kerr had not forgiven his own impulsive behavior in the car yesterday. Even the tiniest harm he caused
to her would make him feel guilty.
"No, I don't have a death wish."
Harley pushed the emergency room door open and walked toward Nicole.
"Miss Ning, I didn't know this side of Kerr until I met you. It's really an eye opener."
It was true. He had never seen Kerr act like this.
Nicole blushed at Harley's comment.
She also thought that Kerr was overreacting, but at the same time, she was moved by his concern.
"Just shut up and check her, will you?"
Kerr desperately held onto Nicole's hand, nervousness thick in his eyes.
"All right. Her temperature has returned to normal. Miss Ning's recovering very well. As long as she
rests, she will be fine. You need to calm down, Kerr."
Before Kerr could think of a retort, Ken entered the room.
"Kerr, I have something to tell you."
Ken had received some news and could not wait to tell Kerr.
As if he had not heard Ken, Kerr picked Nicole up and carried her to the room next to Jay's. Nicole was
still sick, and Kerr did not want her to infect Jay.
"Just go with Ken. Something important must have come up," Nicole told Kerr as he set her down.
Ken was waiting outside the ward.
"I'm not going anywhere. I'm staying here with you."
To Kerr, Nicole was all that mattered right now.
He did not want to leave Nicole again.
"I'm fine, really. Don't be so nervous. I'll wait for you here, and I won't go anywhere."
Nicole deeply appreciated Kerr's loving concern. She might be a little helpless because of his
overreaction, but she was happy.
She had never felt this way, and she was beginning to think that she had misunderstood about his
relationship with Sunny.
"Okay. I will be back soon."
Kerr kissed Nicole on the forehead and reluctantly left the room.
"I'm so jealous."
Standing by the door, Avery saw everything and could not help making a comment. She nodded at Kerr
on his way out of the room.
"You're making fun of me."
Nicole smiled at Avery.
Avery walked up to Nicole after Kerr left.
"You haven't told me what happened to you. You were fine when I left last night, weren't you?"
It never occurred to Avery that she would meet Nicole in the emergency room this morning.
"There was an accident, but it's fine now."
No matter how many setbacks Nicole encountered in the process, as long as the results were good,
she was willing to accept them.
"I'm glad to hear that. Now that you have Kerr Gu protecting you, I can sleep well at night. When are
you going to tell him about Jay? Will he be so excited that he will marry you soon?"
Avery could only imagine how surprised and thrilled Kerr would be when he found out that he was Jay's
biological father.
"I haven't decided yet. I want to take my time."
Nicole was touched when Kerr told her that he would love everything about her including her son. He
didn't know the truth, but he still treated Jay as his own son because of her.
She wanted Kerr to love her dearly for all that she was, not just for her son.
"That's a great idea. Also, I came here today for another thing."
Avery turned her head toward the door and then back to Nicole. She lowered her voice.
"I've found some clues about the past, but we still need to confirm them. You better recover fast so that
we can follow up on them and get to the truth this time."
Avery just got the news yesterday.
