My CEO Daddy by ELAINE MALLIN

Jay Ning was not the type of kid who would have too much affinity with a stranger. It was an odd behavior for Nicole Ning to see coming from her child.

Jay's friendly attitude towards Kerr made Nicole feel a bit concerned while she was washing a bowl.

"Is everything alright, Nicole?"

As Kerr asked, he realized that she kept cleaning the bowl and couldn't hear him at all, which immediately caused him to lean towards Nicole very close.

However, Kerr's intentions were never meant to scare the hell out of Nicole as he caught her off guard.

"Oh my Goodness!" Nicole's hands instantly dropped the bowl as soon as she noticed Kerr.

The wet bowl that Nicole let go of hit the ground so hard that it made the floor all slippery, which caused Nicole to slip as she turned around and fell straight to Kerr while her subconscious reaction was closing her eyes.

It was really fortunate for Nicole to have Kerr right next to her to stop her from falling. Kerr couldn't help himself to ask with a smile on his face. "Do you like throwing yourself at me?"

As she was held tight in Kerr's arms, she decided not to play along with him.

"Does it seem like I am flirting with you? You just scared me and almost got me hurt." Nicole was slightly mad at him.

The embarrassment made her blush as she stood up with her hands on the bar counter.

"Then what about last time?" Kerr couldn't stop looking into her eyes, whereas she struggled to keep her eyes straight at him.

The situation was getting a bit intense as he persisted and held her tighter to pull her closer to him by every second that passed.

Nicole felt uncomfortable and hesitated to get a centimeter closer to him. "Don't forget that you're the one who came to my house without any sort of invitation. You shouldn't have asked if I liked throwing myself at you in the first place. That wasn't nice."

A few days ago, he forced a poor woman to have an abortion against her will. Nicole always promised to herself that she would make sure to bring the best things possible to Jay’s life. And as a father figure, Kerr was not even an option.

"Do you really think that I came here just because I wanted to?" Kerr continued as he was still holding Nicole in his arms. "Jay wanted me to be here. So I just accepted his friendly invitation."

She couldn't believe how naive he was. "I really thought that you weren't fool enough to take a kid's innocent words too seriously."

Nicole's and Kerr's bodies were just fingers away of distance that she could even hear his heartbeats like a machine gun being fired right next to her ears. The only thing that she wished for in that moment was to get rid of his arms around her hip.

Although he could feel the discomfort in her, he didn't let go of her.

Kerr leaned his nose towards her neck and sniffed. "Is that perfume that I smell? That is the sweetest perfume I have ever smelled." It was at this moment that Nicole was seconds away to start freaking out.

He was so dosed by her fragrance that he continued sniffing up to her right ear. Kerr had never felt this attracted and excited by someone's aroma before.
