One Night Surprise Chapter 140

Chapter 140 Do You Intend to Marry Her?

“Yes.” Courtney hastily nodded, then instructed Tina, “Tina, this is your Grand-Aunt Alicia.”

Alicia murmured the name ‘Tina’ under her breath several times before bringing her focus back to the present. She glanced at Courtney and said, “Why is she calling me ‘Grand-Aunt’? That makes me sound so old.”

“Then, what should she call you?” Courtney asked, feeling slightly nervous. Her childhood impression of Alicia was not a good one. Alicia was always a little mean and sharp-tongued toward her, so she used to be extremely scared of her aunt. Fortunately, her grandfather protected her. Otherwise, she would have been scared silly every time she met Alicia back then.

“Just call me Great-Aunt Alicia.”

Upon hearing those words, Tina used her baby voice to greet Alicia without further prompting from Courtney. “Nice to meet you, Great-Aunt Alicia.”

Alicia’s usual cold and indifferent demeanor seemed to soften for a moment. She leaned down and beckoned to Tina. “Come; come closer for me to see you. I’m getting older, and my eyesight is getting worse.”

Tina glanced at Courtney. After receiving approval from Courtney, she obediently stepped forward and generously lifted her head for Alicia to see her face. “Great-Aunt Alicia, is this close enough for you to see my face?”

Alicia’s eyes lit up with a smile. “What’s this? Are you not scared of me?”

“Why would I be afraid of you, Great-Aunt Alicia? It’s not like you’re a scary beast or a caterpillar.”
