One Night Surprise

Chapter 43 Future Young Mistress

“How can that be possible? The Young Master is getting married to Miss Price.”

“I heard that Old Master Duncan dislikes Miss Price and doesn’t agree with the marriage at all.”

“Really?” A maid covered her mouth with astonishment as she lowered her voice and said, “If that’s true, does it mean that the appearance of Miss Hunter shows that the Young Master likes her more?”

“Be a little more sharp and respectful to her—who knows, she might be the future Young Mistress.”

Meanwhile, Courtney was busy eating with the children. Unbeknownst to her, Jordan’s dependence on herself had triggered the imagination of all the servants in the manor; she was even crowned as the future Young Mistress of the family.

It was already 3.00PM when the two meetings of Sunhill Enterprise were over. Josh placed the meal he had ordered earlier on the coffee table in the office.

“You should eat first, President Duncan. I will copy the minutes of the meeting to your computer later.”

Alexander pinched his eyebrows and nodded tiredly. He had been busy since 7.00AM and hadn’t had time to eat yet.

After a brief rest, Alexander called home and put his phone on speaker as he unpacked his meal.

The call was quickly connected as the butler’s respectful voice came through. “Are you done with your work, Young Master?”

“Yeah, I just finished. How are things at home?”

“Everything is fine. Don’t worry, Young Master—Miss Hunter and the Little Master are getting along, and he is having fun with Miss Hunter’s daughter as well.”

The sound of children playing came from the other end of the call as well as Tina’s loud laugh.

“Jordan, this toy of yours is just too funny! Haha!”

Alexander’s expression softened.
