    "I had absolutely no choice. He threatened me and said that I had to add the drugs to your food, or


    else..."

    Lily felt embarrassed to tell Nicole about the photos. She had failed to get the photos from Moore.


    If those photos got out, her life would be ruined. Lily was painfully aware of this.


    Nicole could get an idea of what might have happened just by looking at Lily''s face. There was pain


    and sadness written all over it.


    "Listen Lily, you have to tell me everything that happened. Everything he did to you. We need to sort


    this out once and for all. Otherwise he will use this against you every chance he gets. You will never be


    able to live in peace."


    Nicole knew what Moore was capable of. He was ruthless and brutal if he wanted to be in order to get


    what he needed. He had put Kerr and her close to death but sheer luck saved them. Not everyone had


    that kind of luck.


    Lily struggled to get the words out. "He managed to get me quite drunk and then he took some pictures


    of me." Her entire body shook from having to say these words out loud.


    Nicole saw red and clenched her fists upon hearing this. She knew Moore to be heartless but this was


    beyond what she could imagine. The depth of this matter was something only a woman would


    understand and she knew that Lily was devastated.


    "This happened a while ago, didn''t it? You should have said something earlier Lily. Was this why you


    and your boyfriend broke up?" Lily had mentioned earlier that she had broken up with her boyfriend.


    She finally understood why.


    Lily nodded and stood there at aplete loss for words.


    Nicole sighed and then suddenly stood up. If Moore managed to get Lily to do this to her, he might


    have arranged for something simr to happen to Kerr as well. She picked her car keys and left the


    company.


    She drove well beyond the speed limit without bothering to slow down and headed straight for Kerr''s


    office at the Gu Group. Just as she stepped out of the car, however, she was faced with Moore in the


    parking lot.


    "Correct me if I am wrong Miss Ning, but you are no longer a member of the Gu Group, are you? So,


    what brings you here?" Moore blocked her path.


    Nicole was Kerr''s biggest weakness and his key to taking over the Gu Group. Capturing Nicole and


    threatening Kerr would be the surest way to get him to step down without a second thought. He knew,


    however, that this was a risky n.


    He stepped aside and let Nicole pass, knowing that he wouldn''t be able to execute this n.


    Nicole felt a strong mix of hatred and fear at the same time as she looked at Moore''s cold eyes. There


    was nothing she could do but hurry away from him.


    Before she realized it, Moore was matching her stride, step for step.


    "What do you want from me?" Nicole tried to sound confident, but she could feel her heart pounding


    with fear.


    A threatening smile appeared on his face, almost evil, as he said, "Stay away from Kerr or you will be


    in trouble. If my n goes sideways, you will pay for the consequences."


    Nicole was terrified but she kept on her brave face. "What is it that you want, Moore? You want to


    rece Kerr as the CEO of the Gu Group?"


    Greed could make a man sick and Nicole was aware of this. She could understand that he coveted the


    property that the Gu family possessed but going to these lengths was something she could never


    fathom.


    If these were the means to a rich and luxurious end, no one in the world deserved it.


    "If I told you, would you be able to give me what I want?" Moore raised a hand and moved slowly


    towards Nicole''s face.


    Nicole instinctively pped his hand away. "Don''t even dare to think about it! You keep behaving in this


    way Moore and you will never get anything in life."


    Moore was angry and was going tosh back at her when a low and cold voice rang out from behind


    him. "Nicole!"


    He stepped out of the elevator and saw Nicole up against a wall, trembling with fear. He ran for her and


    grabbed her wrist.


    He held her close to try and keep her from shivering.


    Relief washed over every inch of her body as she stood in Kerr''s arms.


    Kerr felt the rage build up inside of him and the moment Moore opened his mouth to speak, Kerr


    punched him straight in the face. Moore felt the taste of metal as blood filled his mouth.


    "Don''t you dare touch Nicole. You even think about doing that and you''ll find yourself kicked out of the


    Gu Group." Kerr red at him feeling hatred from the bottom of his heart.


    The only reason Moore was still in the Gu Group was because of Jack. If it hadn''t been for him, Kerr


    would have done away with Moore a long time ago. All Kerr needed was one wrong move on Moore''s


    part to justify kicking him out.


    Moreover, now that he had found Zachary, there was no use for Moore anymore.


    "Since you don''t want me around and the feeling is so strong, maybe I should inform Dad about this.


    You will have nothing to worry about then, I will be gone." Moore looked over at Nicole and then walked


    away without as much as a second nce back.


    Just as Moore turned away, Nicole thought she saw a meaningful look in his eyes. Suddenly, an idea


    came to her mind. She grabbed Kerr by the arm and cried out, "My stomach is throbbing Kerr!"


    Kerr didn''t wait even a second before picking her up and carrying her over to his car. Anything to do


    with Nicole''s health got him very worried nowadays.


    She held onto him tightly until he gently ced her down on the car seat. Holding on to her stomach in


    pain, she nced out of the window and spotted Moore standing not too far away, watching them. A sly


    smile slowly came over his face making him appear smugly satisfied with himself.


    "Are youfortable? Is the pain any better? Was it Moore? He did this to you, didn''t he?" Kerr


    regretted not hurting Moore more when he had the chance. A punch was nothingpared to what he


    deserved.


    He could''ve taught him a lesson, but let him off too easy.


    But if Nicole was in danger because of this, Moore was a dead man. Kerr was sure of that.


    Despite her pain, Nicole was concerned about Kerr looking so tensed. She reached for his face. "Why


    are you so worried about me Kerr? How are you going to marry someone else if you keep thinking of


    me?" It hurt her to even think about what could end up happening in two days.


    Kerr wasn''t hers anymore and she wasn''t sure how she woulde to terms with that.


    "You''re about to marry Sunny and that means that I am no longer going to be a part of your life. You


    can''t expect me to be around even though I love you more than anything in this world. I''m never going


    to be your mistress.


    I could never do that."


    The thought of remaining in his life as a mistress was humiliating and distressing. More so than the


    thought of losing him to Sunny.


    Kerr paused for a second and then let out a long sigh. "There was no pain, was there Nicole? You


    faked it?" There appeared to be no sign of the trauma she just showed a minute ago. Had she really


    been in pain, she would not have been able to talk so calmly.


    Nicole nodded ever so slightly. She pulled out her phone and dialed Lily''s number. "Hey, tell Moore that


    you have done your part. I''ll be at the hospital soon."


    Nicole could only hope that she had been of help to Lily.


    She was quiet for a second and then hung up the phone.


    "What was that? What are you doing?" He was agitated now, unable to understand what she was up to.


    She was plotting something, that he was certain of.
