One Night Surprise

Chapter 108 We Are Very Close

Britney seemed to have expected such a response from Courtney because she laughed mirthlessly. “What is it? Isn’t the victim allowed to voice out their distress since you are happy to assume the role of a shameless mistress? I should truly ask Alexander to look at you now. He must think that you are a very loving wife while assuming that you would want to willingly be his son’s stepmother! I am being generous when I say that you are shameless, especially when you have a child out of wedlock while seducing somebody else’s fiancé!”

“Miss Price.” Courtney suddenly took a step closer to Britney. Her expression was dark when she spoke again. “I told you to stop accusing me. Did you not understand what I said?”

Britney was shocked by the coldness in Courtney’s eyes, so she took a step backward instinctively. However, she straightened her back and retorted, “What are you doing? Do you want to hit me?”

Courtney coldly stared at her. “You assume that I’m about to hit you when I’ve done nothing. It is no wonder you are stupid enough to assume that I snatched your fiancé when I was just in the Maldives for work. Why don’t you ask yourself why your fiancé called off the engagement? You shouldn’t blame others. Besides, I am very busy and I just do not have the time to be entangled in this nonsense with you.”

After she said her words, she glared at Britney icily before turning to walk out of the door.

“Stand right there!” Britney furiously exclaimed.

“Plus—” Courtney was holding onto the door handle, but she could not be bothered to turn around. “I’ve recorded everything that you said when you were scolding me. It might not be a crime, but I suppose it would affect you if I were to upload it online, right?”

“How dare you…” Britney’s expression changed drastically, but she stopped herself just in time before she started to scold Courtney again. I can’t believe you recorded me. I must have underestimated you in the past, Courtney.

The door slammed shut with a loud thud. Courtney stood in the corridor while breathing heavily to calm her complicated emotions. If this had happened in the past, I wouldn’t have handled it in such a way. The rash behavior earlier has made me realize that I tend to get overly anxious over matters involving Alexander.

“Miss Hunter, are you alright?” Addie stopped his work at hand to check on her the moment she returned to the office. “I noticed that Britney didn’t seem elated when she asked you to leave with her. Do you two have a grudge against each other?”
