Chapter 70 You Were Like Me When You Were A Kid


    It was not relevant to Kerr whether the Gu family epted Nicole or not. He had clearly stated that he


    was not like Baron. And he had vowed that he would never let Nicole experience the same insults


    again.


    It was more than a promise that Kerr made to Nicole. And no matter what it took, he must keep it.


    "No, I don''t dare. I know what to do now. Master, please go to bed early,"


    Vedder politely said and deeply bowed to Kerr, before he turned around and left.


    He believed that Kerr was serious about Nicole. He knew him too well. He had been working with him


    for a long time. Judging from the look of it, Nicole weighed importance in Kerr''s eyes.


    Upstairs, Jay quietly eased his way to Kerr''s bedroom. His small face showed how amazed and


    delighted he was. But when his gazended on the photos neatly arranged in the wardrobe, he fell


    momentarily lost in thought.


    At first sight, he recognized Kerr immediately. But he couldn''t help feeling weird. By looking at the face


    in the photo, it resembled that vague feeling of him looking in the mirror. Jay inwardly thought, ''Is Kerr


    my father?''


    His heart was racing wildly at the thought. Although such suspicion had been in his mind for a long


    time, he had no evidence yet.


    "What are you doing?"


    Kerr had just walked in and casually asked Jay in a calm voice. He silently stayed behind Jay as he


    watched the little guy, who still stood in front of his wardrobe, seemingly in a daze.


    "I''m looking at the photos. You were like me when you were a kid!"


    Jay responded in a polite tone. He didn''t turn around but remained standing still staring at the photo.


    He sounded unusually calm, which was not like him. It was far from Jay, who would be more like a kid


    in front of Nicole. This time, he was like a grown-up.


    "You appeared at that time on purpose today. The Fang family got the paternity test report with your


    cooperation,"


    Kerr began matter-of-factly as he sauntered closer to Jay.


    He had never doubted Jay''s ability, not even once. Kerr could discern it with the way he performed in


    the school. He was the youngest in the school, but he had gradually surpassed all the students.


    And with the incident earlier, he could faintly feel that there were a lot of secrets revolving around Jay


    that even Nicole didn''t know.


    "Yes! They don''t want Mommy to be together with Uncle Fang, and it happens that I don''t want them to


    be together, either. So why don''t I cooperate with them? You also think so, don''t you?"


    With an innocent smile stered on his face, Jay tilted his head to one side and looked at Kerr next to


    him rather earnestly. Indeed, what he said was surprising enough.


    Jay was surprisingly picked up by the Fang family at the school gate this day. They imed that they


    wanted him to have a body check-up. How could he not know that the reason they drew his blood was


    to do a paternity test? But he obeyed them very obediently.


    And besides, the result of the paternity test was already in his mind, and he was confident about it. He


    had known Baron for so many years. If he was really his father, then it was so impossible for him not to


    know.


    "You''ve already known that Baron isn''t your real father. In other words, you have an idea who is your


    real father,"


    Kerr probed. He was well aware of how smart Jay was. Even though the little guy had tried to pretend


    to be amon kid, unbeknownst to him, Kerr was still able to discern it.


    Speaking of Jay''s father, a cold shiver ran down his spine. Kerr suddenly felt quite afraid thinking that


    one day Jay''s father would appear out of nowhere. No, he didn''t want it! He would never let Nicole


    have a tiny sliver of possibility to leave him in the future.


    "Maybe. Compared with Uncle Fang, I think you are more suitable to take care of Mommy. If you also


    mind my existence, then I will leave Mommy. But before that, I have to make sure that you can take


    care of my mommy for me,"


    Jay gently spoke in a soft voice. He knew all the time that he might be a burden to his mother. But


    before he could find a suitable person to take care of his mother, he was more worried about him


    leaving when he didn''t want to leave his mother at all.


    "I don''t need you to leave. You can just stay here,"


    Kerr softly countered. His heart couldn''t bear the pang of sadness that swelled within him when he


    heard how sensible Jay was.


    For him, only a well-behaved child could utter such words. And only a well-behaved child could bear


    more sorrow than others. At this moment, he felt very sorry for Jay.


    Yes, he liked Nicole so much that everything she had, including his son, Jay, would unquestionably be


    part of his world. He would dly ept and embrace them. And he would be someone more


    suitable for them no matter who his father was.


    Kerr''s gaze never left Jay''s small cute face. He knew that this child was not kidding.


    "Really?" Jay asked in surprise. "Jay, where are you?"

    Both heard Nicole''s voiceing from the outside.


    When Nicole checked Jay in his room, he was not around. Afraid that he might get lost in the Gu


    family''s vi, she started searching for him. However, she was not also very familiar with the ce, so


    she didn''t know where to look for him.


    "Mommy, I''m here!"


    Jay suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled off Kerr''s hand. Then he ran towards the door dragging


    Kerr behind him and quickly poked his head out of the door.


    "Why are you here?"


    The moment Jay opened the door, a gush of relief washed over her. But she was stunned when she


    noticed a tall figure standing in the door.


    She couldn''t help looking at the two. She felt it odd that Kerr always kept himself away from others.


    She could attest that he had never been so close to a person, but when these two met, they had


    chemistry. Their personality just clicked.


    It made her silently marvel at the power of the so-called blood rtion.


    "Uncle Gu said that he would be afraid to sleep alone, so I''ve promised him that I will sleep with him.


    Mommy, do you also want to sleep with me?"


    he exined to his mother. Then he looked at her earnestly, waiting for her reaction.


    Hearing Jay''s blunt words, Nicole was startled. She appeared so awkward that she felt goosebumps


    rising all over on her skin. What was worst, she could see herself blushing.


    Clearly, her son had been totally bribed by Kerr, and that was she thought. So she could only mentally


    curse him.


    "Jay, if you are afraid to sleep in a strange ce alone, I can apany you. Come out quickly, and


    don''t disturb Uncle Gu,"


    she softly coaxed. Ever since Jay was very young, he had insisted on sleeping in separate rooms.


    Initially, she was worried that he would be afraid, so she secretly went to see him at night. However, his


    toughness and courage were always beyond her expectations.


    She didn''t buy the idea of Kerr being afraid to be alone. It was merely a lie, and apparently, as his


    mother, she could sense that Jay only wanted to be with him.


    "Mommy, I''m not scared. It''s Uncle Gu who is afraid, so Ie here to apany him tonight. I have


    promised him. As a man, I''ll keep my words. I can''t break my promise,"


    Jay politely insisted. Then without another word, he turned around. But when he was about to close the


    door, he was stopped by his mother.


    "Jay, don''t let me repeat myself. Get out!"


    she blurted out, sounding impatient. She rarely looked serious in front of her son, but she couldn''t let


    him stay with Kerr alone. Considering that both of them were clever, it certainly made her feel on edge.


    She felt something nagging at her, making her frantically worried that it would be a bad thing if she let


    the two of them stay together like this. She knew that if they continued to live together like this, it


    wouldn''t be long before Jay recognized his father. By then, she wouldpletely lose


    him.
