One Night Surprise (Courtney and Alexander) novel Chapter 108

Chapter 108

Britney seemed to have expected such a response from Courtney because she laughed mirthlessly. “What is it? Isn’t the victim allowed to voice out their distress since you are happy to assume the role of a shameless mistress? I should truly ask Alexander to look at you now. He must think that you are a very loving wife while assuming that you would want to willingly be his son’s stepmother! I am being generous when I say that you are shameless, especially when you have a child out of wedlock while seducing somebody else’s fiancé!”

“Miss Price.” Courtney suddenly took a step closer to Britney. Her expression was dark when she spoke again. “I told you to stop accusing me. Did you not understand what i said?”

Britney was shocked by the coldness in Courtrey’s eyes, so she took a step backward instinctively. However, she straightened her back and retorted, “What are you doing? Do you want to hit me?”

Courtney coldly stared at her. “You assume that I’m about to hit you when I’ve done nothing. It is no wonder you are stupid enough to assume that I snatched your fiancé when I was just in the Maldives for work. Why don’t you ask yourself why your fiancé called off the engagement? You shouldn’t blame others. Besides, I am very busy and I just do not have the time to be entangled in this nonsense with you.”

After she said her words, she glared at Britney icily before turning to walk out of the door.

“Stand right there!” Britney furiously exclaimed.

“Plus-” Courtney was holding onto the door handle, but she could not be bothered to turn around. “I’ve recorded everything that you said when you were scolding me. It might not be a crime, but I suppose it would affect you if I were to upload it online, right?”

“How dare you…” Britney’s expression changed drastically, but she stopped herself just in time before she started to scold Courtney again. I can’t believe yr recorded me. I must have underestimated you in the past, Courtney.

The door slammed shut with a loud thud. Courtney stood in the corridor while breathing heavily to calm her complicated emotions. If this had happened in the past, I wouldn’t have handled it in such a way. The rash behavior earlier has made me realize that I tend to get overly anxious over matters involving Alexander.

“Miss Hunter, are you alright?” Addie stopped his work at hand to check on her the moment she returned to the office. “I noticed that Britney didn’t seem elated when she asked you to leave with her. Do you two have a grudge against each other?”

“Are you done with your work? You are always gossiping like a girl every day.” Courtney rolled her eyes at him. “If you do not wish to be my assistant, I can have the female trainee take your place.”

“No.” Addie immediately covered his mouth before he quietly continued with his elaboration. “I was just worried about you, Miss Hunter. After all, you are close to President Duncan, so I’m sure it’s only natural for Britney to have strong opinions about you since she’s his fiancée.”

She turned with an insincere smile plastered across her face when she heard his words and it looked especially eerie. “Addie, I can tell that you seem to have a lot going on in your mind lately, isn’t it? Why are you saying that I’m close to President Duncan? Why would others have opinions on that?”

“Well, President Duncan’s Little Master is always clinging onto you. Besides, I’m just saying that casually. Everybody knows that you have a daughter, so how could you possibly have anything going on with President Duncan?” He smiled apologetically.

Courtney scowled and her expression turned serious. “Enough with your smart mouth. The film crew will be staying at our hotel for the next two days. Pay attention to security at every spot to avoid fans from slipping into the premises.”

“Yes, I understand.”

She closed the door behind her after returning to her office before she pouted with a scornful expression and

softly mumbled, “Fiancée? Who admitted to that? She has been barking up the wrong tree all along.”

In the afternoon, Tina and Jordan were staring at each other in the lounge.

“Jordan, I’m so bored.” We have been staying in the lounge for the entire day. We even had our meal here. I am truly bored to death!

He was twisting his Rubik’s Cube that had been rearranged countless times and blinked several times while thinking, Well, I think it’s quite alright. It’s not that boring.
