One Night Surprise (Courtney and Alexander) novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69

Well, I don‘t believe him, of course! 

Shay glared vehemently at Alexander’s back, his youthful face etched with animosity.

He is the president of the Sunhill Enterprise, for God‘s sake. I‘m sure he gets everything he wants, so why would he come all the way to experience life in a small apartment? I won‘t believe him even if he claims that he doesn‘t have an ulterior motive. 

Courtney made the bed swiftly, and when she walked out of the room, she handed Alexander a new towel and some toiletries.

At night, Tina and Alexander were brushing their teeth in the bathroom. She stood on a small stool, and her mouth was foaming with bubbles. In fact, she looked especially delighted.

“What are you smiling about?” Alexander asked her.

Tina gargled and spat out the water. Then, she stood on the stool while beckoning to Alexander with her finger,

He got the hint and bent down.

She patted his shoulder reassuringly while lamenting like an adult. “Look, I told you from the very beginning-my mommy is outstanding. People are queueing up in a long line to pursue her.”

Alexander was slightly upset when he thought of Shay, and so he asked, “Well, what do you feel | should do?”

“Work hard, of course! You need to take more initiative, Mr. Alexander.” Tina straightened her back, looking especially glad. “You’d be able to catch up if you work hard now. Besides, you’ll have such an obedient and adorable daughter, such as myself, without having to put in any effort. If you do not work harder and end up marrying Miss Price, I’m sure Jordan wouldn’t be happy about it. Furthermore, even if you two were to give birth to another daughter, I’m sure that she wouldn’t be as cute as I am.”

Alexander chuckled involuntarily when he heard such an illogical statement. He picked up a towel to wipe Tina’s mouth with it, and then he caressed her soft hair while reassuring her. “Alright, I understand. Go and sleep now.”

“Okay, Mr. Alexander. Bear in mind that you have to work hard. I will support you.” Tina kissed him on the cheek. After that, she jumped off the stool and skipped to her bedroom

Courtney entered the house after putting out the laundry. She picked up her mouth-rinsing mug on the way while asking him casually, “Why is she so pumped up? What did she say to you?”

Alexander regarded their reflection from the mirror as they stood beside each other. He observed that both their toothbrushes and mugs were red and blue respectively. The woman, who was standing beside him, was asking about her child in a relaxed way, making him feel the wonder of being with loved ones somehow.

Alexander’s heart skipped a beat, and he was in a daze,

Since she did not receive an answer, Courtney looked at him through the mirror to find that he was staring at her too. Caught by surprise, she asked in a thick and muffled voice while brushing her teeth, “What’s up with you?”

Alexander snapped back to reality. “Nothing. The toothbrush bristles are just too hard.”

“Oh?” Courtney glanced at the toothbrush in his hand in a hurry. “There’s a convenience store downstairs Why don’t I buy a new one for you? I don’t pay much attention to this sort of thing, so I

usually just buy the cheaper option.”

That’s not necessary, I can use this.” Alexander barely had an expression. After brushing his teeth, he walked straight back into the bedroom.

Jordan was tossing and turning in bed, and it seemed as if he was in high spirits.

*Jordan, it’s time for bed,” Alexander pushed his wriggling shoulders down while tugging against the blanket

Jordan nuzzled against Alexander’s arms. Finally, he found a comfortable position and settled down in an obedient manner.

Alexander couldn’t help but frown when he thought of the special feelings he harbored for Courtney. He just couldn’t fall asleep as he stared at the ceiling. These feelings that I can‘t seem to explain must have stemmed from my concern for Jordan‘s preferences. After all, it‘s rare to come by someone whom Jordan is willing to be close with. After being acquainted with Courtney, Jordan‘s temper has improved leaps and bounds. In fact, he has become more cheerful than before. Previously, I decided to marry Britney after considering Jordan‘s feelings, but judging by the current situation, it is obvious that Jordan prefers Courtney more. Maybe he isn‘t simply hoping for a mommy, perhaps he has already acknowledged Courtney as his mommy deep down in his heart. All the previous questions and doubts suddenly felt clearer and brighter when he came to that conclusion.

Alexander rubbed his nose in embarrassment. Well, it‘s true that I haven‘t. 

I do not have any practical experience at all because I‘m used to being pursued ever since I was a child. So how could I possibly know how to pursue a girl? If it weren‘t for Tina‘s help, I doubt I‘d stand a chance at all.
