My CEO Daddy

When Jared heard Kerr, he came to Bonnie and picked her up, promptly leading her to the ward.

Nicole frowned, disappointed that Kerr didn't make an effort to help Bonnie. However, she had another concern in mind, so she decided to follow Jared and see how Bonnie was doing. She only didn't count with a firm grip on her arm, holding her in place.

"You are the only woman I want to hold in my arms."

Kerr wasn't the type of man who would embrace any woman unless he had to.

His eyes never left Nicole's as he told her that. Not even the hardness on her delicate features could've intimidated him to turn away from her.

"I don't know what you're talking about. I just want to see Bonnie."

Although she would never admit it, Kerr's words caused her cheeks to flush in a light shade of pink. As she distanced herself from him and walked towards the ward, she absentmindedly put on a smile.

Before Nicole could walk into the room, Jared came out and tried to soothe her.

"There's nothing to worry about, Director Ning. Miss Bonnie Ning just got scared. She will be fine as long as she rests for a while."

Noticing the blush adorning Nicole's cheeks, Jared's face twisted with worry.

"Director Ning, is something wrong? You seem quite flushed!"

Unconsciously, Nicole brought her hands to her reddened face.

"I'm fine," she said, trying to hide her embarrassment. "Thank you, Mr. Kang."

Nicole walked by Jared and went straight to the room. Inside, she approached Bonnie and sat next to her.

With concern, Nicole inspected Bonnie's pale face and looked at the hospital gown set beside her.

Then, she gently lifted the blanket covering Bonnie's body and carefully changed her clothes.

"No! Don't touch me!"

In her sleep, Bonnie had the feeling someone was touching her against her will. She woke up frightened, waving her arms and groaning as if she was trying to resist an assault.

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.

ared headed to the door and opened it. On the other side, he found Nicole and Bonnie waiting. He didn't say anything; he just stepped aside and made room for them to come in.

"Bonnie has something to tell you."

Nicole's eyes landed on Ken, sitting on the bed. The corner of her lips slightly lifted when she saw him. Although she hadn't completely forgotten about what he had done to her sister, today, after seeing him risking his life to save her, she was willing to overlook a few things.

She saw how Ken cared about Bonnie. If the way they had met was wrong, they could try to make it right now.

As soon as Kerr saw Nicole, he stood up and walked towards her before taking her hand into his.

"Ken also has something to tell your sister," Kerr said.

He led Nicole out of Ken's room, so the latter and Bonnie could have some privacy.

With a considerate smile, Jared gently closed the door behind them.

A moment later, Kerr asked Nicole to stay in the hospital and rest, but she refused since it was already dawn outside.

Sitting in his car, Nicole watched the sun rising in the east. The early morning had her feeling peaceful and energized.

Finally, she was able to get Bonnie's forgiveness. She felt as if a heavy weight had been taken off her shoulders.
