One Night Surprise (Courtney and Alexander) novel Chapter 86

Chapter 86

Alexander was woken up from his deep sleep by her shrill scream in the wee hours of the morning, He frowned for a few seconds before returning to his calm composure as he sat up. “What are you screaming at? Take a closer look-we’re both wearing clothes,” he said in displeasure.

Courtney looked at him in a daze for a long time. After noting that both of them were indeed wearing pajamas, her face immediately flushed red.

He shot a glance at her before he explained indifferently, “The hotel attendants were the ones who changed your clothes. Apart from that, you should ask yourself why I’m sleeping next to you. You insisted on speaking to me in your dreams for the entire night-surely you don’t expect me to sit next to you throughout the night, do you?”

Her face had the hue of beets as she could not wait to dig a hole in the ground to hide herself. This man looks like he is a mind reader! He knows what I’m thinking with just one look. “T-Then, why am I here?” she asked as she bit the bullet.

The structure of the hotel room was similar to the one she stayed at, but there were no hidden cameras around, so it was rather obvious that it was a different room than hers.

After Alexander rose from the bed, he poured a cup of tea before passing it to her. He asked her again, “You clearly know that you are seasick yet you insisted on coming with us. Are you really doing this for Jordan, or are you deliberately…”

“Deliberately what?” Courtney looked perplexed.

He gazed at her. “Deliberately creating a situation like this.”

Her expression immediately changed as she raised her eyebrows and questioned, “What? What do you mean by me deliberately creating such a situation? Do you think that I’m such a shameless woman who intentionally throws myself at yo!’re you thinking that all the women in the world fancy you?”

The tone of her retaliation was strong and violent, as if he had greatly insulted her.

“What if I actually hope that you are deliberately doing this?”

That sentence from him was enough to douse the flames of her anger and render her confused.

“Y-Y-You must be joking. T-T-This is not funny at all.” Courtney’s face stiffened as she lowered her head to drink the entire huge glass of water in order to avoid Alexander’s gaze.

“Do you think I’m someone who likes to joke around?”

“Umm…”

Upon hearing that, Courtney suddenly choked on the mouthful of water. Her face reddened after she tried to suppress her urge to cough.

“I don’t understand what you are trying to say.”

It’s better to continue to play dumb. If I speak too much and the feelings aren’t mutual, I’m the one who would be embarrassed again.

Alexander frowned. “Raise your head.”

“What?” Although she was taken aback, she subconsciously raised her head.

In that instant, a shadow fell on her as her plump lips were covered by a warm sensation. She felt him lightly nibbling her lips and when she exclaimed, his tongue took the opportunity to kiss her.

Her mind seemed to have exploded, as if a land mine had blasted every thought she had into rubbles.

The kiss lasted for a long time. When he let her go, she was dangerously out of breath and she grabbed the bed as she panted. She lost all of her strength to blame him.

“Do you understand now?”

Alexander stood up with a straight posture. His tall shadow cast on Courtney, making her unable to calm her breathing while his deep, hoarse voice that was filled with lust made her heart thump violently.
