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’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?”
