CEO And His Son novel Chapter 13

Now it was up to him to find her. He was on his own.

"Aren't you busy today?"

Nicole held Jay's hand. She slowly walked towards Baron and climbed into his car.

Looking at the slightly unnatural side face of Nicole, Baron was a little confused and asked casually,

"What happened to your face? Are you hot?"

The whole day had gone by. The heavy makeup slid off her face, and the injured side was a little reddish.

"Oh, that! Don't worry about that. Just a little bite from a dog I encountered."

Nicole glowered at Baron shortly and then turned to look at Jay in the back seat breaking into a sycophantic smile.

"The sandwich made by Jay is amazingly lip smacking. Mommy has not eaten enough yet.

Someone grabbed one from me."

Jay looked away instantly and refused to pay any attention to such conversations.

Humph! He could not forget at any cost that his stupid mother even let her get hurt. He still had a lot to ask and discuss with his mother. Just because he did not mention it did not mean that it was no more on his mind. Now that she was discovered by Baron, she tried to fool him too.

She didn't take him seriously at all. It was evident from the attitude!

"You can eat two at a time. But remember if you eat too much at once, you might end up having a stomachache or even get sick," Jay said.

She would often have an upset stomach, so Jay made it a point to control her diet all the time.

It'd already a very difficult task for a six-year-old child to be able to be self-disciplined. However, when he looked at Nicole, he knew that she too was his responsibility no matter the age.

"Don't think that I will be flattered by these unnecessary compliments! I am really angry right now!"

"How about I cook your favorite braised fish tomorrow? Will you quit being so annoyed with me?"

Nicole frowned and made a funny expression . She tried to make the situation as light as possible, but he wasn't up for all these at the moment.

"A gentleman never bends his back for a bushel of rice. Don't try to allure me like this."

The exchange turned out to be extremely hilarious to Baron.

"Hahaha!" Baron finally burst out catching for breath.

The mother-son duo amazed him beyond limits. It was as if there was a role reversal and one would doubt as to who was who!

"Don't laugh at me," Nicole snapped.

Nicole was pretty much tired with all that coaxing, so she temporarily gave up on trying to persuade Jay and apologizing. It seemed that she would have to be taught by her son when she returned home.

When other children were receiving their parents' education, the situation was opposite here. Nicole had already started to accept the education of Jay.

Girls cannot come home late and that would put them in danger. This was what Jay had told Nicole.

She felt upset thinking what lesson she would get from Jay this time.

"What mistake did you make again?"

In Manhattan, Baron had been the direct witness of this for a number of years. Even today it was still the same.

This was the only way he thought in which he could find his father and demand answers for abandoning his dear mother.

His instincts told him that his father had to be a person who was in an extremely powerful position, because he was convinced that his level of high intelligence could not be inherited from Nicole in any way.

"Maybe. When I met him in person, I never realized that he was a legend. He was just a cold man with no expression at all," Nicole said.

Whenever she could remember that impassive face of Kerr, she couldn't help shivering. She always prayed in her heart that Jay wouldn't be like Kerr ever.

The three of them bought a lot of things from the supermarket. It was pretty late by then. Baron took Jay and Nicole to eat outside before he sent them back to the apartment for the night.

Baron waited for Nicole to switch off the light in her room. Once she did so he slowly drove away. He left without saying what he wanted to.

Jared was standing beside Kerr. The phone finally rang in his hand.

When Nicole left the Gu Group, Kerr ordered Jared to let the bodyguard of her apartment report to him once Nicole arrived at her apartment. He had waited for the news till now.

Although Kerr didn't say anything out loud, Jared could feel his boss's stinging silence all around. This made him hold his breath and become extremely tense.

After hanging up, Jared quickly opened his mouth to say something.

"Mr. Gu, Director Ning is back in her apartment. She was escorted by Baron Fang from Fang Group."

Karr raised his head and took a look at his watch. 'It's half past eight, not too late, just with Baron?' he thought to himself.

"According to the information you had given me, Nicole is not supposed to know Baron," said Karr.

The calm and collected voice almost sounded like a threat to Jared. He felt his legs becoming paralyzed. Nervously he blurted out immediately,

"Baron and Director Ning met each other when they were studying in Manhattan. They were classmates at that time."
