My CEO Daddy

"Don't be afraid. I'm here."

Nicole shivered helplessly inside Kerr's arms. Kerr held her tightly and leaned his cheek on top of her head.

He reached for a dry towel and started drying her long hair. He then reached for her shirt to unbutton it. Nicole suddenly stirred and stopped him.

"Please don't. There are people outside," Nicole murmured.

She held Kerr's hand, blushing.

It was still windy and raining outside, but the inside of the car was warm and comforting.

She instinctively remembered the crazy night she spent with Kerr in the car the other day. There were some people outside their car now. Nicole was worried they would be seen by the others. She did not want that.

"What do you think I'm doing? I just want to get you off your wet clothes. You just got out of surgery. It may be a little injury, but you should still take care of yourself. If you get sick here, there's nothing I can do."

Kerr looked at Nicole tenderly, but there was a touch of mischief in his eyes.

"Why? What did you think I was going to do?" he whispered in her ear.

Nicole blushed furiously and wished she had just bitten her tongue. She lowered her head and avoided eye contact with Kerr.

"Nothing."

She was not about to fall into Kerr's trap. At least not right now. She would not admit what just went on inside her head.

Nicole sat up and backed away from Kerr, but Kerr would not let her go easily.

Kerr pulled Nicole into his lap and cupped her blushing face.

"I won't let you down if you ask for it."

There was no trace of mischief in Kerr's tone. His warm palm slid from Nicole's cheek to her neck. Kerr slowly leaned in.

rr felt Nicole reaching for him. He knelt in front of her.

"It's okay. I'm here. We're on our way to the hospital."

Kerr spoke calmly. Nicole desperately held onto his hand like a drowning child clutching a lifeline.

When they finally arrived at the hospital, Kerr picked Nicole up and rushed her to the emergency room. Jared went to wake Harley and told him to go to the emergency room.

"This is the second time today that I'm working in the emergency room. I have great comeback timing."

Harley teased Kerr while Nicole was being attended.

Kerr ignored him, his eyes fixed on Nicole. Harley shut his mouth.

"Don't worry. It's just a little fever. She was given an antipyretic shot. The fever should subside soon. She will be fine."

Seeing the look on Kerr's face, Harley could not help shaking his head and walking out of the emergency room.

Kerr stood by Nicole's bedside the entire morning. He had not taken the time to change out of his wet clothes.

He wanted Nicole to see him when she woke up so that she would not be afraid. Only by watching over her would he feel at ease.
