One Night Surprise

Chapter 133 Buy Her Things to Win Her Back

That one sentence alone was filled with rage.

Puzzled, Alexander asked bluntly, “Who angered you?”

It was fine if he didn’t bring it up but now that he did, Courtney could feel the fire in her rising. “Who angered me? Who…” The words were about to leave her lips when she saw Alexander’s expressionless face and instantly felt as if she had been doused with cold water. Swallowing her words, she gritted out, “Nobody. I’m just tired.”

“If you’re tired, don’t go back tonight. I’ll send you off tomorrow morning.”

Courtney was breathless from the infuriation burning inside her. She dumped all the unfolded clothes, along with its hangers, into her suitcase. “No; I want to go home to see my daughter. I have to leave now.”

“I’ll send you back.”

“I have my own car.”

Courtney had been using Cameron’s car for the past two days, so now she could drive it back to her place. Without another word, she closed her suitcase and pulled up the handle before leaving, her actions sharp and clean. In the corridor, the sounds of the wheels rotating gradually grew further. Alexander stood in the doorway and gazed at her aggressive silhouette, feeling utterly baffled.

“He just let you leave like that? It’s so late and he didn’t even bother sending you back?”

“He tried, but I didn’t let him.”

“And he gave up just because you said no?”

As soon as she got home, Cameron, who had on a facial mask, listened as Courtney explained the entire situation to her. Eventually, Cameron exploded and slapped the table while saying, “It seems that men will only be reliable when pigs fly. That b*stard Gale isn’t any better than him. It’s no wonder they’re such good buddies; they’re both rotten men. I’ve really misjudged Alexander.”
