One Night Surprise (Courtney and Alexander) novel Chapter 106

Chapter 106

Courtney was stumped when she heard that, but she asked him solemnly, “Are you saying that your name is Oliver?”

The youth lifted his head up from the blanket, but his face was as pale as a white sheet. There was a sheen of sweat across his forehead as he forced himself to nod. “Yes.”

“What is your last name?”

The youth shook his head.

“In that case, forget it. Do not think about it now.” Courtney reassuringly patted his arm because she was afraid that he would suffer too much while trying to recall his past. “Oliver, is it? In any case, at least we have your name now. I’ll find a way to gradually look for your family.” It will be rather troublesome if Oliver is truly a student from Campus City because summer holidays are just around the corner. I’m afraid nobody will notice if a student or two are missing from school. Well, I suppose I have no choice, but to investigate in person.

The summer holidays officially started at Sapphire Kindergarten a week later.

Courtney attended the parents’ meeting at the end of term and as expected, she bumped into Alexander and Jordan.

Upon seeing her, Jordan ran over to hug her leg. Although he was not saying anything, it was impossible for him to hide the happiness across his young and naïve face.

Ever since that night in Oreus, the relationship between Alexander and Courtney seemed more relaxed and comfortable. The two of them simultaneously set aside the sudden cold war they had earlier without bringing it up. Work went on as usual while life mo forward. Everything seemed back to normal from an outsider’s point of view.

However, they were the only ones aware of their respective thoughts.

“Mommy, can I spend time at Jordan’s house this summer holiday?” Tina tugged against Courtney’s sleeve, causing the latter to snap to reality.

“Of course,” Courtney did not hesitate.

“Really?” Initially, Tina had prepared a whole speech of sweet talk to help convince her mother. Who would have expected Mommy to agree once I asked? It seems like there’s hope for mommy and Mr. Alexander!

Jordan was extremely delighted and he happily grinned from ear to ear.

“Since it so happens I need to work, is it alright to let Tina stay at your place for a period? The two children can keep each other company.” Courtney looked at Alexander while maintaining a calm expression.

His lips curled into a smile and he seemed especially relaxed. “Of course; I don’t mind you coming over to stay as well. It’s easier for you to look after the children anyway.”

“Me? I’m not staying.” She avoided his gaze because she was slightly feeling guilty. I have my reasons because I want Tina to spend quality time with Jordan. After all, they are biological siblings. They might not be able to reunite right away, but I am still glad watching them playing together.

“Have you found a house?” Alexander casually asked and he changed the topic effortlessly. He did not seem adamant on his earlier ‘joke’.

“Yup, I found a place. Coincidentally, I’ll head over to the hospital later to help Oliver with his discharge procedures. Then, I’ll take him to move in together with me.” Two days ago, Anna suddenly phoned me to inform me that she’s returning the house in Golden Water Park to me. She instructed me to never use the house as a reason to return home in the future. At that time, I ignored her, but Cameron found the key to Golden Water Park in her mailbox the next day.

“Are you moving in with that fellow?” Alexander’s gaze darkened swiftly.

“The hospital mentioned that he doesn’t need to stay in the hospital anymore. Besides, I haven’t figured which university he’s from. That is why I can only take him home to live with me.”

“No way.” He refused and coldly demanded. “Courtney, don’t you think it’s inappropriate to take a grown man back home?” It’s not just inappropriate. In fact, it’s absurd. I can’t believe she came up with that.

“Well, I have no choice.” Courtney raised her hands in defeat. “I can’t possibly send him to the welfare center, can I? I’ll be worried if something happens.”
