One Night Surprise Chapter 208Chapter 208 I Have Something to Confess to You

Gale felt a little irritated that his thoughts had been seen through. “Is that wrong? Cameron will get

better.”

“You’re wrong.” Alexander’s tone was firm. “Your parents will certainly perform a check on the person

you wish to marry in the future. If, at that time, they discover that you concealed Cameron’s medical

history from them… they will never give you their blessing.”

He had known Gale’s parents since childhood. They closed an eye toward everything Gale did

because he was already an adult. However, they could not condone lies and deception. It was not hard

to imagine their resentment toward Cameron if they learned that he had concealed something so

important from them.

“If you want to risk Cameron being hated by your parents for the rest of her life, then you can do just

that.” With that one sentence, Alexander, more or less, blocked all the solutions Gale had thought up

previously.

Gale’s eyebrows were furrowed so deeply that they were nearly knotted together. “To be honest, being

open with them is nothing. I’m not worried about my parents being unable to accept this. Right now,

Cameron has lost all rationality. I’m worried that when she recovers, she might be angry at me for

declaring our relationship on my own while she was in no position to make decisions. After all, we

broke up and have not reconciled.” I just brought her back because she isn’t herself right now.

After saying so much, Alexander felt that there was no need for him to continue trying to persuade

Gale. Thus, he patted Gale on the shoulder. “I’ve said what I needed to say. As for the rest… I believe

Courtney has something to say to you.”

“As she should.” Gale nodded.Courtney was Cameron’s best friend. It could also be said that Courtney was her only friend. She

shared her secrets with Courtney—Courtney was the only person in this world that knew about her

mental illness. Now that she is living with me, it’s only natural for Courtney to have something to say to

me.

A while later, Courtney walked out of the bedroom. Then, Alexander tactfully stood up. “I’ll get the car

from the garage.”

After saying that, he gave Courtney a look before leaving.

“Have a seat.”

“It’s fine.” Courtney’s expression was aloof. “It looks like you didn’t listen to anything Alexander said.”

“I heard it all,” Gale explained. “His words were very kind. It was all for my sake. However, it doesn’t

consider Cam at all, no matter how I think about it. After all, he doesn’t stand in my shoes.”

“Well, I’m speaking from Cameron’s standpoint.” Her gaze was as sharp as a blade; its sharpness was

unconcealed. “What I’m going to say won’t be as nice.”

“Go ahead. I’m ready for it. From the day I learned about Cam’s medical history, I’ve prepared myself

for everything.”

“Among all your preparations, did you consider the possibility that you might not be able to remain

committed to her anymore and abandon her one day? Did you prepare for that?” Her tone was

extremely serious. It was neither a joke nor an insult; she was simply asking a question. If the day

comes that you no longer love her, or you become so exhausted with life and cannot bear supporting

her anymore… what will happen to her then?

He clenched his fists. “Wait a moment.”novelbinAfter saying that, he walked to a corner where there was an open reading area, opened the cabinet

door on the bottom of the bookcase, and took out an aluminum portable safe. “These are the

certificates of all my non-liquid assets. There are 36 properties under my name. The most valuable

asset among them is a property located in Kyoto. Moreover, three out of six properties in Melrose City

are commercial properties that have been rented out. The rest are mostly spread out over the tourism

areas across the country. Also, this is a car in my name, and this is the proof of share ownership under

my name—”

“Why are you showing these to me?” She felt extremely confused when he started telling her all about

his assets. She listened to it for a while and noticed that more than half of the items in the safe had yet

to be taken out. Thus, she couldn’t help interrupting him.

He stopped in the middle of taking out his certificates of assets. Looking up, he solemnly said to her, “If

it really is like what you said; if the day really comes when I can no longer bear to support her

anymore… I’ve also considered that. Even though I don’t believe that I will ever stop loving her or be

unable to withstand anything, I did consider that I might lose my life due to a disaster or an accident.

So, I’ve thought about it.”

She remained silent.

“These are all the current explicit assets that are in my name. I have asked a lawyer to draft out a

contract. If the situation you mentioned were to ever arise, all my assets will be handed over to Cam.”

“What if she is unable to use them?” She said those words with some difficulty.

“There will be three parties managing it on her behalf, namely the trust institution, the welfare

organization, and the psychiatric hospital. They will supervise each other and take care of Cam for the

rest of her life.”After listening to his explanation of what he had arranged for the future, she had no choice but to

believe that he had done his homework when it came to taking care of Cameron. It might be nothing

more than a whim, but this passion had not affected his rationality. Rather, he was overly rational about

this. He even considered the possibility that the trust institution and welfare organization might jointly

defraud Cameron of her assets. Hence, he requested that Cameron had to live until at least 80 years

old, and all her organs and tissues were at least at the same functioning level as others in the same

age group. If those conditions were fulfilled, the leftover money would then be donated to the welfare

organization. Therefore, Courtney had nothing left to say.

When Courtney was about to leave Gale’s house, weeping sounds came from inside the bedroom.

Gale seemed to be used to it. “I won’t keep you company anymore. She is probably crying because of

the movie. I need to go and comfort her.”

“Go ahead.” Courtney had reason to believe that Cameron was receiving better care at Gale’s place

than anywhere else. However, she was also vaguely worried that being Cameron’s personal caregiver

would bring great complications to his normal life.

After getting into the car, Alexander did not talk about the events in Gale’s house today. Instead, he

asked about other things. “Do we go back to Grandpa’s place to visit Tina?”

When they learned about what happened to Cameron, he had sent Tina over to Scott’s place to stay for

the time being. On the other hand, Courtney seemed reluctant. She sighed and said, “No. If I meet Tina

now, she will surely ask me where her godmother went. I haven’t figured out how to answer her

question yet.”

“Then, let’s not visit her yet. I heard from the butler that Tina is doing very well at the Duncan

Residence. Besides, school is about to start. She will need somebody to send her to and from school.

So, it won’t affect her too much whether you visit her or not.”“Who said that?! I can still send her to and from school even after the company is up and running.” She

did not agree with his statement. It made her sound as if she was only sitting around enjoying life

without knowing what was good or bad.

“Josh can oversee the renovation of your company, but the designers…” Alexander glanced at

Courtney, seeming to consider how to word his thoughts. “You still need to build up a team of designers

aside from Bill. I’ve asked Josh to post up a job offer in Citron Apparel’s name. I hope you don’t mind.”

Courtney slowly brought her senses back to the present. “Let’s leave the position of chief designer

open for now.”

“Yes, I left it alone.”

It was a night where the moon was bright and the stars were few. Even on a night like this, Melrose City

was still filled with bustling streets lit up with thousands of neon lights. To what extent can a person

love? Cameron was most afraid of being abandoned. Her ego simply did not allow for something like

that to happen, and she had unconditionally concealed her mental illness. Even so, Gale found out

about it anyway.

Courtney leaned back against the seat and carefully observed Alexander, who was sitting in the

driver’s seat, for a long time. “Alexander, I have something to confess to you.”
