One Night Surprise Chapter 504Chapter 504 He Knew Her True Feelings
After eating halfway, Josephine and Ethan went to play while Jimmy disappeared from climbing down
from his chair.
“Jimmy, let’s build some sand castles together. If you don’t know how to, I can teach you.”
When she saw that Jimmy followed her, she gave a slight frown as she stopped and reached out to
him.
Exchanging glances with her, Jimmy was full of joy after carefully observing her. On the other hand,
Ethan was obviously not happy at this development as he crossed his arms while pouting, looking as if
a formidable enemy had arrived.
While Josephine was holding hands with Jimmy, Ethan intentionally slowed down and followed them
from behind. Turning around a few times, Jimmy then reached out to him after hesitating for quite a
while.
“Hmph. I’m not friends with you.”
Pouting, Ethan did not want to get closer to him.
“Ethan, hurry up.”
Seeing Josephine urging him, the little boy still ran over and held her left hand in the end.
“Ethan, did you not wash your hands after eating the wings? It’s so oily.”
Ethan did not answer this.Soon, the trio arrived at the beach. Before they had even built a castle, Ethan was already playing
around and accidentally knocked over the sand princess Josephine made while they were running
around. In a fit of rage, she chased them with the toy shovel, making them run in fear.
The joy they were having made Ethan and Jimmy forget about their little spat earlier.
On the contrary, the adults were slowly enjoying their meal when Josephine came running to them all of
a sudden just as a plate of roasted meat was being served.
“Daddy, Mommy, it’s bad. Ethan has fallen into the water and Jimmy jumped in too.”
Josephine ran until she was out of breath and fell onto the ground around 100 meters from where the
adults were and did not rise to her feet. Seeing this, Alexander ran as fast as he could and carried her
up before giving her to Courtney, who had followed him.
Gale was scared out of his wits as he almost felt his heart stop on the way to the beach. When they
had arrived at the pool beside the beach, they found the two children already floating to the middle of
the pool. Ethan was slowly sinking while Jimmy was running out of strength even though he was still
flailing his arms.
Jumping in at the same time, Gale saved Ethan while Alexander rescued Jimmy.
On the other side, Courtney had already informed the family doctor as the doctor arrived soon after the
children were sent back to their room. After diagnosis, it was found that there were no major issues on
both of them.
“You had saved them in a timely manner, so their conditions are still relatively stable. It’s just that they
had ingested some water in their lungs. Also, watch out and make sure they don’t catch a cold.”Even the usually strong Cameron was teary-eyed now. Gale, who could not keep calm, was chased out
the room by her and was scratching his head helplessly.
Then, he saw Alexander coming down in a clean set of clothes, making him blurt out, “I had said not to
let Ethan get together with this Jimmy. Who knows where he came from? Look at what he did in this
short span of time! If anything really happened to him, Cameron would kill me.”
A still drenched Gale was dripping water, no matter where he walked, making Alexander a bit unhappy
as he shoved a set of clothes to him.
“Whatever it is, change your clothes. Then, we’ll talk.”
“I’m not in the mood to change right now, Alexander. I’m just worried whether Cameron would change
her husband.”
Sitting on the genuine leather sofa, Gale then made a wet patch in the shape of his bottom soon
enough as Alexander watched with a frown.
“Both Ethan and Jimmy fell into the pool, so you can’t just blame it all on him.”
“Alexander—”
Finding what he heard hard to believe, Gale saw Alexander hinting at his body while saying, “Courtney
is very protective of Jimmy right now, so you best not let her hear what you said. Otherwise if she
throws a fit, she might make you pay her for a new sofa. Then, you’ll really be at a loss.”
“Aren’t you looking down a bit too much on me? It’s just a set of couches…”
“Well, it isn’t that expensive. It’s worth about half the house you have in the city area.”
“Is this sofa made out of gold?”Hearing this, Gale immediately shot up from the sofa and ran upstairs to change. When he came down,
Cameron and the others had also come out.
Acting obediently, he then raised his right hand and swore beside Cameron, “I’m sorry, my wife. I will
follow Ethan wherever he goes from now on and also tell him to stay away from Jimmy.”
Rolling her eyes at him, Cameron heard Josephine defending Jimmy as Josephine said, “Mr. Langley, it
was Ethan who fell into the pool when he tried to pick the shovel up himself. It has nothing to do with
Jimmy. Besides, Jimmy only jumped in because he wanted to save him. Sir, I think you have some
prejudice against Jimmy.”
While pouting unhappily, Josephine stared at Gale with big eyes.
“Hear that? I told you that we should’ve sent our son to swimming lessons, but you didn’t want to.
Otherwise, this wouldn’t have happened. You’re even blaming Jimmy in this,” Cameron snapped
angrily at him.
“Josie also said that Ethan and Jimmy are getting along well now. Gale, I think you’re too
overprotective,” Courtney added.
Before he could even react, Gale had found himself the common enemy of the people there as he
glanced at Alexander to plead for help. Yet, it was at this exact moment that Alexander’s phone rang,
making Gale watch his one and only savior walk away.
Walking to the side hall, Alexander saw that it was Eric calling him.
“President Duncan, we’ve news on Raymond. He went to meet that man at a cafe this morning. After
coming out, he had been driving toward the south side of the city. I think that Tina might be there.”
“Inform the police and keep track of him. I’ll be there immediately.”His tightly furrowed brow finally relaxed a bit as Alexander found Gale still not out of trouble when he
returned to the living room. Looking through the chaotic situation, he managed to meet Courtney’s
gaze.
As if they had exchanged information, she could see the comfort and joy in his eyes. Understanding
something from his gaze, she then felt tears rolling down her face uncontrollably.
Courtney blocked out the noise and heard a single voice instead. “I got a lead.”
novelbinIt was his voice. It was these few short words that cleared Courtney’s cloudy heart.
“What? You’ve got a lead on Tina?” Gale, who had seen the silver lining, asked sincerely while shifting
the flow of the conversation.
Nodding, Alexander then embraced Courtney, who was crying like a child by now, much to everyone’s
shock and disbelief. After so many days, the emotions in her heart had finally burst as she cried loudly
against his chest.
After the incident had happened, Courtney carried on with work and life as usual. Even when Cameron
was feeling strange about this, only Alexander knew what she was thinking about and knew his
woman’s pain.
“Wait for me,” Alexander said with conviction while kissing Courtney’s forehead.
