One Night Surprise Chapter 91Chapter 91 Ask For His Help
Ever since Courtney knew that Alexander was the man from six years ago, she projected all of her
hatred toward the man who changed the entire course of her life on him. It even overshadowed the
flirtatious feelings that she had for him for the past few days.
Upon noticing that Courtney still looked morose, Cameron knew that she was not joking. After frowning
while thinking about it, her eyes suddenly brightened. “Courtney, I have an idea.”
“What is it?”
“Isaac! Aren’t you guys still married legally? Do you want to consider letting him help you?”
When she heard the name ‘Isaac’, Courtney looked slightly dazed and shook her head after thinking
about it for a while. “Forget it, let’s not trouble him.” All those years when I’m abroad, I have already
troubled him enough. Now that I’m back here, how can I still ask him for help?
Cameron sighed. “Fine. You’re just too stubborn. There’s nothing else that I can think of to help you.”
She patted Courtney’s shoulders. “Regardless, just remember that no matter what happens, I’m always
here, so you can talk to me anytime.”
Courtney calmed down and looked at Cameron with gratitude after hearing her words. “Sure thing.
Don’t worry, I’m fine. What about you instead? What are all those recent posts on Twitter about? Are
you in love with someone?”
At that mention of that, Cameron suddenly avoided her gaze. “Nothing—oh, I suddenly remember that I
have a contract to send off. I’ll head back to my room first.”
With that, she fled the scene.Upon looking at Cameron’s departing figure, Courtney helplessly smiled.
Three days later, Shay brought Tina to their country and took the green lane at immigration to avoid the
groups of fans.
Courtney also went to the airport to pick them up.
“Mommy!”
As soon as Tina saw Courtney, she immediately pounced on the latter while her laughter that sounded
like bells reverberated in the airport.
In that instant when Courtney saw her, all the troubles that she faced for the past few days seemed to
have evaporated. “Did you have fun, Tina?”
“Yes! It’s so fun!” Tina wrapped her arms around Courtney’s neck and planted a kiss on her cheeks
before mysteriously asking. “But, why did you suddenly leave, mommy? Did you plan it with Mr.
Alexander and Jordan? You guys abandoned me and left.”
Courtney was slightly confused after hearing that. “What? They left earlier too?”
Shay, who was next to them, gave a dry cough and changed the topic. “The car is here. Let’s get into
it.”
In order to celebrate the completion of the shoot for the first season, his company held a celebratory
party in the evening where the celebrities, guests, and even the entire filming crew participated. As
Tina’s chaperone, Courtney was also one of the invited guests.
Since it was merely a celebratory party and not an official one, everyone wore casual clothes and the
atmosphere was light and fun. Courtney brought Tina along where they ate and drank while basking in
a relaxing atmosphere.In the middle of the party, the director brought Tina to introduce her to other people while Courtney
merely watched them from afar.
A bright smile blossomed on her young, pretty face. From Tina’s playful and fun expression, it was
difficult to see any resemblance to Alexander. However, in the rare times that she was quiet, it was
clear that her facial features resembled him.
After a glance at Tina, panic rose within Courtney and made her nervous before she quickly took a sip
of water to calm herself.
“Courtney.”
A deep voice rang from behind her. After finally calming herself down, her heart fluttered again as she
tightened her grip on the glass of water.
Alexander wore a black suit and walked over to join her in looking at Tina from afar.
One of his hands was holding a wine glass while the other was naturally placed in his pockets. “You ran
away from Maldives without giving any notice. What was the reason?”
“Nothing. Something happened back home.”
Courtney was slightly nervous around him. After knowing the truth, she felt quite repulsed by him and
forced herself to keep a distance from him—as if her self-defense mechanism had been triggered.
“Is it because of the house or because of me?”
She frowned.
Alexander looked calm as he took a sip of his wine. “Maybe it’s because of me that caused your house
issue?”Her heart sank as she felt nervous. He knows?
“You hastily moved out from my place, but you don’t want to stay with Cameron again. I heard that
you’ve been busy with accommodation issues. Is that so?”
A relieved Courtney nodded. “Yes, I can’t possibly stay at your place forever.”
“Do you need any help?”
Alexander did not ask her to stay and only asked her that question instead.
A wave of shock flitted across her eyes, but she shook her head. “It’s fine; I can manage it on my own.”
Alexander definitely doesn’t know that I’m busy with accommodation matters for my future plans and it
involves confronting him too. How would I dare to ask for his help?
novelbinWhile Courtney’s rejection was too direct, her repulsive tone had attracted Alexander’s attention
because he turned to look at her intently. “Is there something wrong?”
Courtney froze and looked at him in shock as she almost thought she misheard him.
He frowned, regretting that he had asked such a question.
The atmosphere between both of them suddenly became more awkward.
Not long after that, Shay suddenly waved and walked to them. He wore casual beige long pants and a
light blue T-shirt. With a bright and young smile on his face, he directly gave Courtney a glass of juice,
as if it was the most natural thing to do.
“Courtney, they are going to karaoke later. Are you joining them?”
“Hmm? Nah, I’ll pass.” She immediately shook her head. “I have Tina with me, so I can’t go to places
like that.”Alexander’s expression became slightly calmer.
After shooting a glance at him, Shay gave Courtney a good-natured wink while having a playful
expression on his face.
“Right. I think so too. When they switch venues, I’ll send you home.”
“Sure.” Courtney smiled.
However, to Alexander, her smile was too striking.
He tightened his grip on the glass as his face slightly darkened.
The next morning, after Courtney sent Tina to school, she officially started her work at Sunhill Hotel.
After she wore the employee’s name tag, she had conflicted feelings.
Now that she had something that she always wanted, it felt like a huge trouble to her. As she thought
about the future, she felt that she could not stay at Sunhill Hotel for long. Perhaps I should look for
another job and have some plans as a contingency.
After she started her work, her job was rather smooth and she seldom had the opportunity to meet
Alexander. Her assistant, Addie, knocked before he entered her room to talk to her about celebrating
her new job that afternoon.
“Miss Hunter, we are planning to celebrate your first day working here tonight. I’m here to check with
you on your schedule. Is the time alright for you?”
While Courtney was hesitating, her phone suddenly rang and quickly unlocked her phone display
screen after seeing who the caller was.
“Hello.”There was a moment of silence in the room as the other person spoke.
“What?”
Her expression immediately changed as she turned pale. “I’ll be right there.”
Before she hung up on the call, she grabbed her bag and ran outside. Addie could not even stop her,
no matter how he called for her.
“Miss Hunter, what’s wrong?”
Courtney did not reply to him.
