One Night Surprise Chapter 150Chapter 150 Sever Ties With Her

Britney looked up to meet a pair of bleak eyes. Shuddering in fear, she instantly had the feeling that

Benjamin was not an average person, and that his connection to Alexander was not an average one,

either.

“What happened between the both of you?”

“That is none of your business. You just have to do as you’re told.”

He was indifferent toward her question. It was clear that he had no intention of engaging in idle talk.

“What should I do?” She put her mind to it and took a deep breath. “You have to give me some

instructions.”

It was tough to be in the palm of someone’s hand, but things had already unfolded that way. Benjamin

was clearly one step ahead of her. The carelessness of the person Jason hired is to blame. How could

he let him get away so easily?

“It’s simple—cause an accident to happen and frame someone else for it.”

“Good morning, Miss Hunter.”

“Good morning.”

Courtney brought the two children along with her to the hotel for work today. As they were making their

way in, they were greeted by many employees—some of whom gave them strange looks.

“I told you. Do you still not believe me? Miss Hunter and President Duncan have already started living

together. Whenever he goes on a business trip, she looks after his son for him, so that’s why he’s beenfollowing her to work every day. I saw them yesterday too.”

“Oh? Isn’t the little prince the hardest to tend to? The hotel was in chaos the last time he stayed here.”

“Doesn’t that make Miss Hunter capable? Being able to get on the little prince’s good side is basically

getting on President Duncan’s good side.”

“If I had known, I would’ve been the first one to rush to Little Master whenever he came to stay at the

hotel. I wouldn’t budge even if I got punched or kicked. Wouldn’t I become the daughter-in-law of the

Duncan Family, then?”

“You have a wild imagination! If you bother the little prince, you wouldn’t even have this job anymore.”

“That’s right.”

“Oh well, I’ll just wait for an ordinary person. It’s still better to have your feet on the ground. Only a

person’s career can change their fate.”

Despite the heated gossip and chatter in the office, Courtney remained oblivious to it all. Since it was

not too malicious or far-fetched, she did not bother with it even when it reached her ears.

Alexander was on a business trip for two days. She did not feel at ease leaving the two children at

home, so she decided to bring them along with her to work at the hotel. Besides, the people at the hotel

already knew who they were. She let them run around the hotel as long as they did not step outside.

“The same rules from yesterday apply today. If you’re hungry, go look for Uncle Oliver. You have to stay

inside this hotel. If there’s a problem, come to me or Miss Penelope at the front desk.”

“We know, Mommy. Get to work already.” Tina urged her to leave while Jordan nodded his head

obediently and tugged at Tina with a compliant look on his face.When Courtney arrived at her office, Addie came running over in a frantic state. “We have a problem,

Miss Hunter!”

“What is it?”

“A call from the headquarters came just now. They told us to tighten security at the hotel and advised

you not to come to work for a couple of days.”

“Why?” Courtney looked up from her computer when she sensed the gravity of the situation. “What

happened?”

“Look at the trending searches on the internet today.”

Filled with alarm, Courtney’s hands started flying across the keyboard and quickly brought up the

trending news articles on the screen.

‘Popular singer Shay Spencer’s first love and girlfriend exposed at the same time.’

‘Rumored adoptive sister and his current girlfriend got into a big fight.’

‘Shay Spencer hasn’t forgotten about the incestuousheadquarters ’ love affair with his sister.’

Courtney was rendered speechless.

The red and bold headlines were shocking. Most of the pictures included in the articles had the

watermark of only one media source.

“The headquarters and Shay’s company are rushing to resolve this issue, but the editor-in-chief at the

media company seems to have a bit of animosity toward President Duncan. I’m afraid he won’t show

us mercy. Netizens are currently leaning more toward one side.”Addie was overwhelmed with concern. Very carefully, he said, “Miss Hunter, we don’t believe that you

are this kind of person, but the pictures might be difficult to justify.”

The picture captured what happened backstage on the day of Shay’s performance. The person claimed

to be his current girlfriend was Anna Hunter while the adoptive older sister he once talked about while

on a program was naturally Courtney.

Courtney clenched her fists. “This is nonsense.”

“We think it’s nonsense too.” Addie nodded in agreement. “You’re older than him by two to three years,

and you’re not related by blood. Why is it considered an inappropriate relationship?”

Courtney gave out a side-splitting laugh and rolled her eyes. “Addie, you sure know how to discern a

problem.”

An unbelievably slow-witted Addie took it as a compliment. “I learn from the best, Miss Hunter.”

The news came out in the morning and spread across the internet very quickly. Even though Shay rose

to fame recently, he was still building his reputation and fanbase. Since a large portion of his fans were

students, the internet blew up with rage in an instant.

As soon as they managed to take down one trending topic, ‘Pity Shay’s Girlfriend’ made it to the top

three.

Courtney followed the headquarter’s advice and was packing up her things to leave early when she

received a call from Alexander.

“I just came out from a meeting.” His voice sounded hoarse like he hadn’t slept enough. “I saw the

news. Stay at the hotel for a couple of days and don’t run off anywhere else. It’s not safe to go home.”

She was rather taken aback. “Aren’t you going to ask me about the picture?”In the picture, Courtney and Shay were seen embracing each other. The paparazzi happened to find a

convenient angle where it looked like they were tied up in each other’s arms when it was just an

endearing hug. There was even a picture of Anna running away in tears with her hands over her face

beside it, giving people the wrong idea.

“I don’t want you to believe things that you see about me on the news, either. It goes both ways.”

Feeling touched by his words, Courtney murmured, “Thank you. When are you coming back?”

Alexander had been gone for a few days, so she figured he must have been swamped with work. It

was also their first phone call since he left.

“I won’t be returning for the time being. Can you manage on your own?”

novelbin“Yes,” she answered firmly.

“Okay.”

After exchanging a few sentences with each other, the call ended. Alexander was always brief and to

the point while Courtney always preferred to deal with her own problems.

Thinking about that phone call, Courtney guessed that it wasn’t even a minute long.

If it were a different woman, she would probably have boiled over with anger by now. It was no wonder

he stayed single all these years. He did not know how to speak affectionately, but he happened to meet

Courtney, who understood how busy he was.

At the thought of that, Courtney felt like she had gotten the short end of the stick. Why am I so good at

finding excuses for people?At the entrance of a five-star hotel in a foreign country, Alexander hung up the call and sat inside the

car.

“Who released the news?”

“Storm Media.” Josh furrowed his brows together. “At the moment, people who have voiced their

opinions on the internet seem to fall into two categories: Shay’s diehard fans who won’t accept that he

has a girlfriend, and those who feel sorry for the said girlfriend. Should we do something about those

who keep cursing at Shay and Miss Hunter?”

“No.” Alexander looked firm. “Sever all of Courtney’s ties with Sunhill Enterprise.”

“What?” Josh looked puzzled. “Sever ties? What about—”

Upon seeing Alexander’s indifferent expression, he took back the latter half of his sentence.

Don’t try to guess what Alex is thinking; I won’t get it anyway.
