My CEO Daddy

Jared saw Kerr approaching and immediately looked up to give him a report.

"Mr. Qin is fine. He was shot with a tranquilizer dart but doesn't seem to have any injuries."

He pulled the needle out of Ken's arm and handed it to Kerr.

"Bring him to the hospital, but don't inform the Qin family for the time being,"

Kerr instructed Jared. He took a look at the surroundings, his eyes sweeping the warehouse for every detail. The small sunroof diagonally above him caught his attention.

Before he could get nearer to examine the window, a tranquilizer gun appeared.

"Move away!"

Kerr yelled urgently. He twisted his body deftly and managed to dodge the tranquilizer dart that was shot out of the window.

Not too far away, Nicole was not so lucky.

She was glued to the spot, unable to see anything and exposed with nowhere to hide. She had never felt so scared in her entire life.

"Ah!"

She felt a sharp pain in her arm, as if something had stung her. Instinctively, she raised her hand to the spot to brush it away. Much to her surprise, it wasn't an insect but something that felt like a needle.

"Nicole!"

Kerr was about to rush to her side to pull her into his arms when a man clad in black suddenly appeared from behind her and held a dagger against her throat.

"Stay where you are, Mr Gu. Even if you accidentally get any closer, my hand will slip and accidentally cut open this young lady's artery too."

The man's voice was clear and menacing. He had never expected to meet Kerr there today, but it seemed to be a very good opportunity that was not to be wasted.

"What do you want?"

Judging from what the man had said, Kerr was sure the man knew him well.

He didn't mind compromising for Nicole's sake, but he couldn't risk allowing her to get hurt. She was already weakened by the tranquilizer and he didn't know how much more she could endure.

"Oh Mr Gu, you're such a kind-hearted person. I haven't actually decided what I want yet, but I wouldn't mind accepting your verbal promise in return for her safety. When I've figured out what I really want, I'll come find you to make my request.

When the time comes, don't pretend to forget about our deal."

The man's tone was casual and relaxed, as though he was a friend chatting about the weather, instead of a gangster threatening a woman with a knife in his hand.

nt that he had a different place in her heart.

Very soon, the five of them arrived at the hospital. The two cars stopped right at the entrance of the emergency room of the hospital owned by the Gu Group. Since Jared had already called ahead before their arrival, a team of medical staff were already on standby, waiting for them. Ken was immediately whisked away for a checkup.

The first thing Nicole did when she got out of the car was take a good look at Bonnie. Seeing her sister's disheveled look, her eyes instantly filled with distress.

"Bonnie, are you hurt?" Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

Bonnie's eyes were still staring in the direction where they had taken Ken. When she heard Nicole's voice, she couldn't stop the tears from spilling from her eyes. She didn't say anything but just let the tears roll down her cheeks.

"Don't be afraid. I'm here now. I'll protect you!"

Nicole comforted her as she wrapped her arms around her and hugged her tightly.

Bonnie didn't respond, but she didn't push Nicole away either. She was still in shock after all the terrifying events earlier.

She was so relieved and seemed to be on the verge of passing out after the adrenaline in her system had worn off. Her eyes started to close and her body began to slump.

"Bonnie!"

Nicole felt her sister's body getting heavier but couldn't find the strength to support her. She started to panic and cried out,

"Kerr!"

Instinctively, she turned towards him for help.

"Jared!"

Kerr's demeanor seemed calm but he didn't move. Seeing Nicole's panicked expression, he quickly called Jared over.
