One Night Surprise

Chapter 73 Let Go of Your Hand

Before going up the stairs, Courtney asked the maids for some ointment and knocked on the door of the dressing room.

“Come in.”

Alexander had already changed his attire; the previously worn pajamas were bunched up and simply thrown to the floor.

“Is your leg fine? I’ve brought you some ointment,” Courtney stood at the door and said.

He nodded as a reply. “Thanks.”

“You’re welcome; It’s your ointment anyway. I’ll just leave it here for you to use. I’m going out now.”

“Alright.”

After putting down the ointment, she turned around and left the dressing room. However, upon taking a few steps, she suddenly remembered something, so she turned back and opened the door straight away.

“Remember to put the ointment—”

Before she could finish her words, her expression immediately froze the moment she saw the scene in front of her.

Alexander’s hand twitched as his belt fell from his hand, causing his whole pants to fall to the floor and revealing his pair of muscular legs.

Instantly, Courtney came back to her senses and covered her eyes while turning around. “Why are you taking off your pants?” she asked anxiously.

At the same time, Alexander looked embarrassed as his face sulked. “How else can I apply the medicine on my body? Besides, I should be the one asking you why you came in without knocking on the door.”

With a flushed face, Courtney refuted, “I came in to tell you how to use the ointment. Who knew you would…”

As Alexander noticed her frightened looks, he suddenly found the situation a little funny, so he simply grabbed a towel to cover his legs and sat down. “Is that so? Then I would like you to teach me how to use it.”

Even so, she was still facing him with her back. “Have you put on your pants yet?”
