One Night Surprise (Courtney and Alexander) novel Chapter 73

Chapter 14

A bright red palm print was left on Alexander’s face, which showed how ruthless Courtney was with her slap.

This was the first time he had seen her this determined, so he could not help but feel upset by his abrupt actions just now.

“I’m sorry.” 

Upon hearing his response, Courtney was startled instead since she didn’t expect him to apologize so soon. After all, he was a young master and president with a high status, so no one dared to question him. No one would even be surprised if he did something as spontaneous as what he did just now.

She grabbed her falntly hurting hand and felt a little awkward, “Forget about it. Just forget about it. l-I’ll just move out with Tina.”

“Wait” Alexander called after her. “You don’t need to move out. I’ll go on a long business trip this evening, and my flight departs at 3.00PM, which means I won’t be staying here for the time being. During this period, I would like you to help me take care of Jordan.”

Courtney instantly halted her steps and hesitated for a while before nodding her head.

At this point, if she suddenly moved away, there was nowhere for her to go anyway. 

I can‘t bring Tina out with me to find a place to stay. How could a child stand that? 

After changing his attire, Alexander went downstairs, and without finishing his breakfast, he reminded Jordan to always listen to Courtney and the butler before leaving

While the sound of the engine in the yard slowly disappeared, Courtney was still holding her hands together, her heart beating wildly.

She must admit that she had an inexplicable affection toward Alexander, but he was about to get married, and she couldn’t bring herself to destroy other people’s marriages. After what happened with Isaac and Vanessa, she hated third wheels for the rest of her life, so she herself definitely wouldn’t do that as well.

That night, Alexander didn’t return. She found out from Harry that he went to Shanghai on a business trip, and this time, he was waiting for a huge client from New York, so he wouldn’t be back for at least another two weeks.

“Should I not stay here?”

At night, she leaned on a pillow and talked to herself while pinching the nose of a husky doll.

“Please tell me what I should do.”

She then shook the husky’s head with her hand and pressed her lips to show that she was in her thinking state.

Not long after she arrived at the hotel, the current manager of the housekeeping department came rushing toward her. “Miss Hunter, please go and take a look in Room 1023. There’s been an incident. They are quarreling right now.” “What happened?” Courtney furrowed her brows and asked about the situation while walking out

“The female guest who checked into Room 1023 said that there were cockroaches in her room, so we went in and dealt with it. Indeed, we found two cockroaches, but I don’t know whether the previous attendant had a bad attitude because she’s now making a scene.”

In the meantime, they had already arrived at the door of Room 1023, which had a group of onlookers surrounding it.

Immediately, Courtney scolded, “Don’t you all have work to do?”

The manager of the housekeeping department, who was beside her, quickly waved his hands, “Go and do your work. What are you all gathered here for?”

As the crowd dispersed, a sharp scream came from the room. “Hey! You’re simply bullying your guest just because you have an impressive business. Where is everyone going? You should send someone to deal with this matter.”
