One Night Surprise Chapter 228

Chapter 228 I Did It for the Green Card

Courtney’s heart flinched at Gale’s words. “Why are you asking this suddenly?” She turned and looked at him with wary eyes.

Gale looked relaxed. “Actually, I really don’t know much about what happened recently. Even the break-up between you and Alex was something I found out just a few days ago. If Alex was right, you really haven’t gotten a divorce, right?”

Upon hearing his words, Courtney breathed a sigh of relief, yet she frowned at the same time. “Yeah.”

“Awesome.” His reaction was unexpected. He was actually giving her a thumbs up. “You’re the only one that Alex has been willing to let be the mistress of someone else. I really admire you.”

Is he really praising me? Courtney could no longer listen to what he was about to say. Irritated, she said, “Mistress? There’s no such thing. I only married Elijah because I needed the green card in order to stay in America with Tina legally. Elijah needed money, and I needed an identity. It was only a deal struck between us.”

“So… Tina’s father isn’t Elijah?” Stroking his chin, Gale suddenly came back to his senses. “A deal? You said the marriage between Elijah and you was just a deal? Why didn’t you tell Alex?”

“He said I didn’t tell him that?” This time, Courtney got even more fed up. “Some people only have nasty things in their mind and they think that everyone else is the same. What more can I say?”

The marriage between Elijah and her was mainly because she needed the green card. She was pretty sure that she had told Alexander about it. Yet, he had his own way of thinking and insisted that she was a cunning egoist. So, what else could she say?

In secret, Gale was stunned. As a bystander, he knew none of them had made a big mistake. However, they were still holding a grudge against each other. Because they couldn’t let it go, they ended up in a conflict, which spiraled out of control.

“Wait, I didn’t get it. Can you please explain in detail?” He stared at Courtney curiously. “Why is the marriage between Elijah and you a deal? I’m curious about that.”

“It’s a long story.”
