One Night Surprise (Courtney and Alexander) novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77 

uneasy. Back then, when her mother gave birth to her prematurely, she died in a few days due to excessive blood loss. It wasn’t until the year she was admitted into Melrose Medical University that Mrs. Bell told her the truth.

if Susan didn‘t come to our doorsteps and provoke her, my mother would not have been so stressed out that she gave birth prematurely! That is why my mother‘s death is closely related to this two–faced woman. 

After two years in university, she chose to study in the city, so she seldom went back home. Even though it was a long time ago, and it would be meaningless to pursue it, she was still sad for her mother. In the end, she simply chose not to face the lying hypocrites in the Hunter Mansion.

After clearing away the disturbance in her mind, she took out her phone as she wanted to call her father, but for some reason, she suddenly thought of how Susan dodged her gaze just now. All of a sudden, she had an idea in her mind.

“Mister, I’m not going to the Royal Park. Please change the course to Golden Water Park.”

Her stuff in the study was left untouched probably because of her father’s orders. Two days ago, she just told her father that she was going to retrieve the key, so he definitely wouldn’t go to her room and take it away on purpose. That was why there was only one place the key might have gone to.

Someone who had always thought of snatching away other people‘s stuff must have taken it. Golden Water Park was located in the middle of Melrose City, and due to the complete infrastructures around it, the price of its houses had soared in recent years. The two–story had a yard of its own, and its price had already risen to 90 million.

After closing the car door, Courtney turned around and gazed at the villa before pressing the doorbell right away 

Soon after, a maid in her fifties came to open the door and scanned Courtney suspiciously. “Who are you looking for?”

With a calm demeanor, Courtney’s eyes flickered as she said, “Hello, madam. Is this house for sale?”

“For sale? Are you a real estate agent?” The maid shook her head. “Why would my master sell the house? I think you should ask elsewhere.”

“Your master? Isn’t this house yours, madam?” Courtney continued with her conventional talk. “I thought it belonged to you. Many elderlies nowadays want to sell their houses in the city so that they can live a rural life in the countryside.”

“Haha, if I could afford such a house, why would I still be someone else’s maid?” The maid laughed unwarily. “I believe you’re mistaken.”

“What is your master’s name, then? Maybe he would like to sell his house. Can you leave me his contact information? I have a small gift here to give you.” Then, Courtney went through her bag and took out a bottle of colorful candies that hadn’t been opened yet. “Look. This is the gift.”

Upon seeing the candy, the maid was delighted. “My granddaughter loves to eat this sort of candy.” However, after a thought, she sighed. “I’m sorry, but I really can’t give you my master’s contact information. Actually, I think I can tell you that my master is actually an actor. But no matter how rich he gets, he won’t be able to afford such a house.” Suddenly, she lowered her voice. “In fact, this house belongs to the lady of Sunrise Enterprise. She gave the house to my master, so how can I sell it to you? Am I right?”

Upon hearing the information given by her, Courtney was internally shocked.

Anna is now acting so boldly. How dare she keep a man outside for herself! Not only that, why did she take my house and give it to someone else? 

“Alright, then.” She smiled and shoved the candy into the maid’s hands. “Madam, I’ll give you this candy, but can you tell who your master is? I’m quite curious about it. Don’t worry; I promise that I won’t tell anyone else. I’m just trying to quench my curiosity.”

After receiving the candy, the maid couldn’t stop smiling, so she answered mysteriously, “It’s alright. He isn’t that famous anyway because he’s always playing secondary roles. His name is Michael Evans.”

Sure enough, Courtney had never heard of this person before, but she secretly remembered his name and thanked the maid.

On the way back, she couldn’t help but find the whole situation hilarious.

Anna has always dreamed of marrying into an elite family in the upper class, but she now has a kept man. If her real boyfriend found out about this, it‘d be fun to see how she and her mother would react to this. However, I don‘t need to get anxious first. I‘m not in a hurry to move in here anyway.

“Miss Hunter, the performance summary for the last three months are all here.”

Addie was confused. “Miss Hunter, the celebration is next week, which means it’s only a few days away. Are you really going to change the plan? Won’t it be too late?”

Besides, this is a matter of life and death. If I don‘t give it my all this time, I can only wait and plead as / get kicked out of here.
