One Night Surprise

Chapter 268 Willing to Suffer for Her

While looking at the picture on the newspaper that a reporter took, Andy recognized a few big shots as his face paled.

“What the f*ck is wrong with you? How many times have I told you that a small company like theirs is not a threat to us? You don’t have to waste your time laying traps on them!”

Amidst his brother’s scoldings, Andy looked embarrassed. “I really didn’t know that Courtney has such a powerful background. Britney only told me that she’s Alexander’s ex-girlfriend. I thought that there’s nothing special about Courtney—”

“Britney?” The middle-aged man’s expression immediately changed. “Are you still hooking up with the celebrity? I think you must be out of your mind.”

Without waiting for Andy’s explanation, he slammed the door and left after saying, “You better take the next two days off to reflect on your wrongdoings at home.”

With a loud thud, silence fell on the office once again.

Andy tore the newspaper on the table into pieces and threw it into the trash.

His phone suddenly rang at that moment. After seeing the caller, his face darkened as he immediately accepted the call. “You still have the nerve to call me? Haven’t you seen the news?”

The other end paused for a moment, but her soft and gentle voice soon rang. “Vice-president Greene, you don’t have to be furious. Isn’t it a good thing that you know more about your future competitor’s background through this incident?”

“Good?” Andy snorted coldly. “Do I look like an idiot to you? Do you know how my brother yelled at me?”

“It’s fine if he merely yelled at you. It doesn’t hurt you at all, right? Look at me now—I’m also being scolded by you, but I’m still trying to gently appease you.”

Upon hearing that, he froze for a moment before his fury slowly subsided. “I’m in a bad mood now. Where are you? I’ll go and pick you up.”
