MY CEO DADDY

Chapter 26 Do You Want To Be My Only Love



Jay's interesting statements amused Ken.

"What about your father?"

he probed further. He couldn't imagine what it would be like for Kerr to be a stepfather, knowing he was the successor of the Gu Group. But the scene he witnessed today made his heart skip a beat, surprisingly in a funny way.

With the way they interacted earlier, he deduced that Kerr seemed not to care about the fact that Nicole had a child.

"I don't have a father. Not everyone will have a healthy family. My mother told me to respect others' privacy, so it's very impolite to ask me this way,"

Jay sternly replied, scrutinizing Ken. The boy didn't show any respect to him at all.

Deep down, he genuinely wanted his father back. He longed to know him, but he didn't want to put his mother in a tough situation, so he never said a word about it.

"Well, I apologize. I'm sorry. What are you looking at?"

Ken apologetically uttered as he stared at the serious look on Jay's face, feeling a little embarrassed. He thought that this child was surprisingly troublesome. He was too sharp to fool.

Feeling defeated, he had resorted to changing the topic.

"For Uncle Gu's sake, I forgive you. Here's the school he arranged for me,"

Jay replied in a friendly fashion as he raised his small hand and patted Ken on the shoulder. Then he eagerly showed him a piece of document. He seemed very generous today as if he didn't want to make a fuss about the trifles with Ken.

Jay had checked the information about this school. He beamed with satisfaction. And all the more, he was interested when he learned from Jared that Kerr himself graduated from this school.

"Really? Did he ask you to go to his school?"

Ken blurted out while carefully taking a look at the documents in Jay's small hands. The moment he laid his eyes on it, he quivered with a startled expression. He stared wide-eyed at the child as if he was looking at a monster.

When he was a child, his father had also asserted that he wanted to take him to that place. But after enduring for a day in that school, Ken resolutely refused. Only talented children from across the globe gathered at that prominent place, and it was not where ordinary children could survive.

"Why not? Would the education costs be quite expensive? It's not easy for my mom to take care of me all by herself. I don't want her to be too tired."

Jay slightly frowned, worried about Ken's shocked expression. Now, he was thinking about whether to sell the system he recently developed. In this way, he could easily make a fortune.

"You'll know when you get there,"

Ken gently said with a controlled smile, looking at the child with such sympathy. Although Jay seemed to be smarter than ordinary children, Ken couldn't tell if he was a gifted child. He couldn't help feeling really worried about the boy.

It wasn't until a long time later when Jay handed over to Ken his first homework, that he realized he had worried too much. He would know the boy was indeed a genius.

Still in the ward, Kerr was caught unaware of himself when he reached out and held Nicole's cold little feet, and surprisingly, he didn't look disgusted at all. He gently rubbed his fingers against her feet, trying to warm her with the warmth from his palms.

"Mr. Gu, as I have told you earlier, you don't have to take those words of my son seriously. I know that you merely don't want to disappoint him. Please rest assured that I won't cause you any trouble,"

Nicole managed to voice out as she awkwardly withdrew her feet to avoid his touch. She carefully chose her words to distance herself from him safely.

"Jay will be upset if he knew how you are going to let him live in this world,"

he countered while looking directly into her eyes, gauging her reaction, which didn't escape his notice.

"He won't know. As his mother, I totally understand what kind of living environment is more suitable for him to grow up. Mr. Gu, you

have a respected identity. I don't want to trouble you.

And of course, I don't want Mr. Gu to affect the peaceful life that Jay and I currently enjoy,"

she insisted, her eyes almost pleading. She only dared to say it when Jay was not around. She deliberately wanted to ignore all of his concern, not because she couldn't understand it, but she knew, deep down, such care and attention wouldn't last long.

So with how she perceived everything, she'd better not want anything from him from the very beginning.

After all, it was so much better than losing all of it in a snap.

"Nicole, do you honestly think so? Or are you afraid that you will fall in love with me?"

After throwing her such questions, he casually approached her on the bed, holding her gaze. He leaned closer as he gently put his palms on both of her cheeks. Now she was trapped between his chest and the bed. She attempted to move, but she couldn't escape.

He gazed at her whole face for a while as if he was memorizing her delicate features. Although he could feel her resistance against his nearness, he detected something unusual in her eyes. She was discreetly evading eye contact with him. He was silently pleased, knowing that it only meant she had a feeling for him.

His judgment told him that maybe his ex-girlfriends were all an easy-going type of woman. That the moment he met Nicole, he basically knew nothing about how to win her heart.

"You must be kidding, Mr. Gu. There is a person more important than my life. I only love him, and no one will come into my heart again."

Jay's little face vividly came to her mind as she stared back at Kerr. And without realizing it, she compared both of them, and she seemed to see his son's face through Kerr's features. She deliberately spoke in an ambiguous way to make Kerr shrink back from these complexities.

She knew how proud he was as a man, so she was absolutely sure that he could never accept the fact that she had another man in her heart.

However, she utterly ignored the fact that her son owed his intelligence from Kerr. So her trick was soon seen through.

"The person you are referring to and who is more important than your life is Jay. You are clearly showing me that there is no one else in your heart, and you are sincerely waiting for me,"

he indulgently declared while he placed his cold finger on her chest. His voice was calm, and it sounded sincere as if he was trying to win her heart.

When she felt a slight cold seeping on her chest, she instinctively stretched out her hand and held his finger. She stared at him, wide-eyed as her mind absorbed what he said. The more she thought of it, the more her heart raced wildly.

"Don't use your tricks on me. I'm not the kind of woman you used to know."

Looking at the relaxed manner Kerr behaved, she felt so annoyed that she couldn't bring herself to explain her side well. He had nothing to do with her in the first place, but she really couldn't bear that he treated her the way he treated all his women.

She reached out and attempted to push him away again, but he didn't budge nor move at all.

"How do you know what kind of woman you are in my eyes? By the way, what kind of woman do you want to be? Or how about being my only woman?"

Considering her twisted expression out of anger, he became more interested in her, so he bombarded her with a series of questions that meant to tease her. How could he let go of such an interesting woman?

"Why? Do you think you are qualified to say 'only woman'? Can you guarantee that you will love only one woman in your lifetime? If you can't, then don't make any empty promises here,"

she countered heatedly, enunciating every word. She would never fall into that tender trap, absolutely not.

She didn't dare think about what she would have become if she was serious about him. She would certainly not repeat the same mistake that happened in her past with Gregory.
