One Night Surprise Chapter 95Chapter 95 You Forced Me to Do This
After being stunned for a moment, Anna defended herself. “Dad, I’m not yelling. I was thinking aloud
that Courtney has nothing good up her sleeves by returning here. Don’t be fooled by her.”
“She’s your younger sister.” Lucian frowned. “It’s been so long since she last returned and this is your
attitude toward her. What are you up to?”
“I don’t have such a shameless sister!” As Anna crossed her arms in front of her, she looked
triumphant. “Dad, you still probably don’t know what shameless thing she has done outside. Back then,
she lied to us that she was going to study abroad. In the end, she had a child out of wedlock and she
hid from all of us to give birth to a b*tch abroad. We don’t even know who the father is!”
She and her mother were sure that if he was aware about it, he would be furious. Hence, Susan even
pretended to advise, “Lucian, don’t be too angry. I’m sure it was a mistake that Courtney made
because she was too young.”
novelbinCourtney never made any effort to defend herself—instead, her eyes were merely full of mockery and
sarcasm.
“Grandpa.”
A young voice rang, breaking the awkward atmosphere and the expectations of the mother and
daughter.
Tina ran out of the study with an antique cigar in her hands that Lucian treasured the most. While
rubbing her eyes sleepily, she said, “Grandpa, I want some cakes.”
His cold expression immediately melted as he crouched and held her in his arms while walking
downstairs. “No problem. Let’s grab some cakes then.”Even though he did not reply to what Anna reported earlier, his actions were clearly a slap to both her
and Susan.
It was a soundless slap indeed.
Anna’s face paled as she could not believe what she had just seen. She was still gritting her teeth
when she sent Courtney out the door. “What method did you use to make Dad accept this little b*tch?”
“Anna, be respectful.” Courtney glared at her coldly before lowering her voice. “You used my house to
keep a man inside. How do you think Dad would react if he knew about this?”
In an instant, Anna’s face turned pale.
Courtney could not be bothered to deal with her anymore and opened the car door. “Sir, please start
the car now.”
Anna was still standing by the gate when the car left the house. With a dark look on her face, she
tightly clenched her fists until her fingernails almost entered her flesh.
On the other hand, when Susan was bringing a cup of tea upstairs, she overheard Lucian’s phone call
through the door.
“Mr. Bakerfield, I’ll hand this matter over to you. A formal notice is needed for the transfer of shares, but
you need to transfer the assets as soon as possible. Yes, transfer it under my granddaughter’s name. If
I give them to Courtney, she might not accept them.”
The reply from the other end could not be heard.
As his grave voice rang through the door, Susan, who was holding the tray, slightly trembled and threw
a pill into the tea after a moment of hesitation. As she saw it dissolving, her expression became cruel
and ruthless. Lucian, you are forcing me to do this.In the evening, Courtney brought Tina back to Cameron’s house.
It was midnight when Courtney heard a couple speaking to each other and peeked through the door.
After seeing some passionate scenes, she quickly closed both her eyes and the door, causing her
sleep to be affected the entire night.
The next morning, she was busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen. When she saw Cameron opening
the door of her room, she took a deep breath. “Wow, pancakes! My favorite!”
Cameron walked out of the room with her slippers and immediately sat on the chair. Then, she picked
up a pancake and stuffed it in her mouth.
With her arms crossed in front of her chest, Courtney demanded, “Is there something you would like to
tell me about last night? This is the first time that I saw Gale leaving awkwardly.”
Gale was everyone’s lover at the Sunhill Enterprise—he has always been confident and attractive, but
blushed when he saw Courtney after leaving Cameron’s room.
Did the sun rise from the west today? Courtney thought.
Meanwhile, Cameron froze as her chewing slowed. “Well, last night we just had too much to drink.
What else is there to say?”
“So, it is a fling?” Courtney asked meaningfully. “It’s good, then. I don’t really know him, so I don’t know
his actual personality. However, his reputation isn’t that good—he has girlfriends all over Melrose City.
I’m worried that you can’t take it if you are involved with him.”
“The entire Melrose City?” Cameron frowned as her face fell.
Courtney smiled in her heart, but she remained serious on the surface. “Yeah. Nine out of ten girls in
my company have been involved with him at least once. His nickname of being the ‘golden provider ofnightclubs’ isn’t just for fun, you know. Every club owner is treating him as their top priority guest.”
With a crack, Cameron broke the egg in her hands with a dark expression.
Courtney coughed and turned, pretending that she did not see Cameron’s reaction. “Tina, time to wake
up now! After breakfast, Mommy will send you to school.”
Actually, it was not a matter of a day or two that Cameron was dating Gale. Ever since she returned
from her business trip, she had been talking about him. Hence, Courtney could tell that something was
up between them and thought, It is easy to bury oneself in a relationship, but difficult to treat it with
rationale.
She was merely trying to remind Cameron that many of his characteristics were not something that she
could accept, so she needed to be aware of those. If they could work through it, only then could they
really be together without any obstacles.
As it was the end of the month that day, Courtney rushed to the headquarters of the Sunhill Enterprise
for a meeting sending Tina to school.
“Miss Hunter.”
In the hall of the enterprise, a man called her name. She turned and quickly scanned the man who had
been looking for her—she recognized him as the producer of the travel show which Shay had
participated in before.
“What a coincidence to meet you here, Miss Hunter.”
The producer was in his thirties. With a casual outfit, he smiled at her. “Before I came, I was just
discussing with the company to talk to you about some matters.”“What is it?” She did not understand what was going on.
“Well, about the travel show we did last time, we just finished editing the trailer and received a positive
response. Hence, I proposed to continue this show. Would you like to consider asking Tina to sign a
long term contract with us?”
“What? Long term?” Courtney shook her head. “No, this won’t do. I have to work and I can’t possibly
ask Tina to go there alone.”
“No worries.” The producer looked relaxed. “I know your work performance is excellent. If you are
willing, we can discuss with President Duncan to transfer you from the hotel to the media company so
that you can be your daughter’s manager. With that, you’ll have more time.”
“Thanks, but no thanks.”
Courtney had never worked as a celebrity’s manager, so she rejected the offer without even thinking
about it.
“Are you worried about the job being unstable? Don’t worry, our salary won’t be any less than a hotel
manager.”
“No, no! That’s not the case…”
She rejected him kindly, causing the producer to look disappointed and he even left his business card
with her before he left.
“Give it a thought and you can call me anytime. There are many mothers who accompany their
celebrity children nowadays. From various aspects, Tina has a great potential to be a child star.”
With the business card in her hand, she was rather amused, but failed to realize that Alexander had
witnessed the entire scene.
