One Night Surprise

Chapter 262 Malicious Rumors

Once Alexander’s question reached her ears, Courtney clenched her fists tightly. As her fingernails sank into her palms, she tried to calm herself down. However, she knew that once she opened her mouth, her trembling voice would betray her.

“I’m relieved.”

Alexander suddenly chuckled.

“Seems like you have always been very vigilant toward outsiders.”

Courtney froze and looked at him without thinking. After seeing the teasing look on his face, she finally heaved a sigh of relief.

She avoided his gaze and spoke in a low voice. “Yeah. Back then, I still didn’t know you well; of course I couldn’t tell you everything.”

“It might rain today. Remember to bring an umbrella along.”

With that, Alexander took an umbrella from the umbrella stand and passed it to her.

“Thank you.”

Courtney lowered her head and pursed her lips. She still felt the lingering fear left behind from their encounter just now.

After walking out of her house, her heart continued to thump non-stop. She had a feeling that if she did not come clean with Alexander, based on his intelligence, he would quickly find out the truth. What might happen by then, she simply could not predict.

The reason Bill suddenly rang Courtney up was because of Sakura Group’s bid.

During the past two days, there was a sudden surge of rumors online about Courtney being the sole legal inheritor of the Hunter Group. They also said that she received a huge amount of inheritance from Lucian and a huge part of it came from the loopholes of the Hunter Group’s finances. Hence, it was equivalent to Lucian using a legal yet unethical method to transfer the inheritance to her.

The Hunter Group was an immense corporation that had thousands of employees. When it suddenly stopped all its operations, many people had to sit around and wait. Because of the auditing process, not a single cent of the wages was paid even after two months.
