One Night Surprise (Courtney and Alexander)

Chapter 19

Chapter 19

In a few sentences, Scott stated all of his demands

“You are looking for a woman with good looks, a great personality, and capable abilities? Do you also

prefer ones who can take good care of people?”

Tina counted with her fingers in a serious, adult like manner. Then, she picked out several key words

she had just heard

y think that my mom qualities for all the conditions you‘ve stated. You see, I need to find a husband for

my mommy and you need to find a wife for your son we both have the same purpose. Besides, I am a

good girl and would definitely not be a burden. Take a look at me and you will know that my mommy is

very good at taking care of people

Tina felt a little guity when she mentioned taking care of people‘.

It was aiready ar e for Time to grow up healthily on her own. Her mom‘s working ability was top notch,

but her ability to take care of herself was quite questionable,

“In that case, its settled* Scon loored at Tina with a smile. “I should meet up with your mommy

someday

“Really?” Tina didn‘t expect to reach a consensus so easily. Her eyes lit up with excitement. “Grandpa,

if my mommy really gets together with your son, I will definitely treat you well in the future.”

“You‘re such a good child.”

Once they had reached a consensus, they talked about the lifestyle habits of the two parties involved

Alexander was a dull and boring person. On the contrary, Courtney had many interesting stories. Scott

was slowly looking forward to meeting this woman based on all the stories he heard from Tina.

After the meeting ended, Scott personally sent Tina to the entrance and watched her jump into the car

before getting the chauffeur to drive her back.

The butler was puzzled. “Sir, don‘t you think it‘s an injustice for someone with fine qualities like the

Young Master to match with a single mother who has a child?”

“In that case, why don‘t you go ahead and look for a young lady with the right family? All the young

ladies nowadays are spoiled by their families; do you expect them to take care of Jordan? What’s

wrong with single mothers? I think that we are lucky enough to stumble upon this gem.”

Scott glanced at the butler with a disdained look, seerning as though he was disgusted by the butler‘s

prejudice

The butler quickly understood that he had jumped to conclusions, “That is true”

Scott‘s priority is to find a stepmother for Jordan–finding a wife for the Young Master is secondary.

“Tina was brought up well. If Alexander had met such a woman earlier, perhaps Jordan would have

been better taken care of; that incident three years ago wouldn‘t have happened”

Scott‘s sigh resonated within the car as he seemed very remorseful.

The butler comforted him. “Sir, it was not your fault. It has been three years, so let bygones be

bygones. You shouldn‘t blame yourself too much–even the Young Master has no intention of blarning

you.”

His expression was sad. Scott replied in a hoarse voice, “If he didn‘t blame me, he would‘ve left Jordan

with me rather than bringing him on his business trips for the past three years.”

After that day, Tina would use the excuse of going out to buy ice crearn so that she could secretly meet

up with Scott at the case, each time, she went back home with a bag full of gifts.

Soon enough, Courtney found a lot of unfamiliar loys while cleaning up the clutter at home,

“When did you buy this little mermaid bracelet?”

Tina was fiddling with her new toys on the bed as she answered with a poker (ace, “It was a gift that

come with the ice cream”

Courtney frowned “Have there been many events at the ice cream store nearby?”

She was suspicious, but she wasnt worried that Tina would do anything bad, it was just a few toys, so it

wasn‘t that big of a deal

“By the way I‘ll be taking you to the nearby kindergartens this alternoon; let‘s see which one you like.

Your godmother wants to find a school for you belore the summer holidays. You can‘t always stay at

home, noht**

If it hadnt ben for th e conversation with her best friend, Cameron Miller, Courtney would‘ve forgotten

Since mont of the kindergartens met

ols started on Monday, Courtney took Tina to visit several results were quite unsatisfactory

Courtney was met EMA*** about the schools‘ medical facilities–that was because Tina had asthma

Ordinar i ergarten on the country weren‘t well equipped in this aspect, and most of the infirmaris didnt

et have a doctor who knew how to do a simple infusion. She was quite worried when only a few of the

wet her simple medical questions

“I want to eat Japanese food Vom.my”

When they came out of the kindergarten, Tina pleaded playfully as she tugged on Courtney‘s sleeve

and instantly dispelled all her troubles away

“Alright, we shall eat Japanese food today”

Since it was a Monday, there were not many people in the Japanese restaurant.

Upon their arrival, the waiter sat them at a secluded seat by the window which overlooked downtown

traffic. The mother–daughter duo stared at each other in a daze after they ordered their food,

“Mommy, I think that you should probably go to work now.” Tina rested her chin under her palm. She

was trying to figure out a plan to get these two people together.

“Why? Can‘t I rest for two more days?”

It‘s not every day you get the chance to be paid for not working; we can talk about it when the week is over.

“You have to seize the opportunity, Mommy!”

“What opportunity?”

“Your boss! Hes no handsome singel impactty sure that many beautiful women in the company are

eager to pursue as you dont work hard, how am I going to survive in the future?”

“You brat! What are you talking about 7 Courtney glared at her and pinched her nose. “Where did you

get all these ideas from? You haven‘t even met my boss–how do you know he is handsome?”

Tina was dodging Courtney‘s attacks when she suddenly brightened up and jumped on her chair,

waving excitedly at a distance

“Here, Mr. Alexander! Here!”

Mr. Alexander?

Courtney looked toward the distance suspiciously; the moment she realized who it was, her smile froze

at the corners of her mouth.

There was a tall silhouette holding a little boy at the entrance of the Japanese restaurant. Both of them

had the same handsome face with a cold, unapproachable look. They looked toward the source of

sound.

Isn‘t that Alexander and his temperamental young master?

Damn it. I just recovered and came out for a walk; why do I have to bump into him? More importantly,

why does Tina know him? What the hell is going on?

Alexander subconsciously turned to look when he heard someone calling him ‘Mr. Alexander‘. He froze

for a moment when he saw the little girl waving at him, feeling that she looked rather (amiliar. As he

stared blankly at the girl, Jordan had already let go of his hand and ran over. Hence, Alexander had no

choice but to follow him

Courtney was blocking her face when she lell a tight grip on her legs. As she looked down, she saw a

pair of big eyes staring back ather–Jordan was hugging one of her legs with an ecstatic look on his

face

“We‘ve met before, Mr AlexanderlTina stood by the table as her black pearl–like eyes blinked at

Alexander

Alexander pondered for a moment and finally associated the young woman in front of him as the

clumsy little girl who had bee n to him at the airport His expression softened as he realized who she

was

“How do you

Courtney was still confused

“Mr. Alexandre the m Tona es beret

He felt an der with a chlaHe

a big tart when he heard Courtney‘s answer. She‘s actually married the subject and asked casually,

“Has your hand recovered?”

Why do the things do from under the taste wing uncomfortable

“In that case you should rest for a while longer You don’t have to rush back to work.”

Courtney was stunned by Alexander‘s words Since when did he become such a nice person to talk to?

“Her hands are fine! She can go back to work tomorrow!” Tina interrupted.

“Tina!” Courtney glared at her Since when did her daughter become a snitch?

However, Alexander seemed unfazed by Tina‘s words. He simply thought of it as a child‘s joke and

swiftly changed the subject. “Thank you for rescuing Jordan, I‘m sorry for not visiting you at the hospital

earlier, but when I finally went over, I was told that you had been discharged. I even thought about

bringing Jordan to your house to express my gratitude.”

“No, no.” Courtney shook her head. “The holiday that you‘ve given me is already considered a form of

gratitude. After all, it is my duty as a company employee to ensure the safety of our guests anyway.”

“That‘s another issue.” Alexander glanced at Tina as his expression darkened, “However, you shouldn‘t

forget about the bet. I don‘t plan on extending the three–month deadline.”

Courtney‘s face turned sour when she heard his words. What does he mean by that? Is he trying to imply that the holiday I‘m on right now is equivalent to wasting my time? All the good feelings she felt
