One Night Surprise

Chapter 316 Let Me Treat You to a Smoothie

The bright lights were still on inside the Citron Apparel designer’s workshop.

Bill was busy with his draft and he usually carried out his work during the night. As for Natasha, who was next to him, not only did she have to work as an assistant during the day, she also had to follow him as his apprentice during the night, so she couldn’t stop yawning.

Then, a series of footsteps were heard outside, sounding especially clear in the silent night.

“Who is it?” Bill glanced at the door and asked quietly. Beside him, Natasha was woken up by the sound as she rubbed her eyes.

“President Hunter?” Since she was closer to the door, Natasha could immediately see Courtney walking in.

Replying with a nod, Courtney came in, her figure becoming clearer when the lights shone on her. Ever since the birthday party, she never went back home because she knew that Alexander would definitely return home that night. Due to the situation with Belle, Courtney couldn’t bring herself to talk to him at the moment. After entering the workshop, she sat on the couch while Natasha poured her a cup of tea.

“Did you just leave the party?” Bill left aside his work and came over to sit opposite to her.

“Yes.” Courtney weakly nodded her head.

“What happened?” He frowned and looked at her. “Are you angry?”

“I guess so.” Courtney received the tea from Natasha and took a sip before regaining some energy to ask Bill, “I wonder what goes on inside a man’s head—do all of you fall head over heels when a girl acts a little weaker?”

“Don’t use a few examples to generalize every man in the world, alright?” He could immediately tell what she meant. “I don’t know about anybody else, but I’ve never seen Alexander fall head over heels for someone even though he has all kinds of women jumping on him for his appearance and money.”

Upon hearing that, Courtney frowned and muttered, “Are you sure? By the looks of it, not only is he falling head over heels for someone, he is also starting to believe everything she says.” He is so stupid to believe every word she says!

“That’s impossible.” Bill instantly gestured as he countered, “Alexander is an unmeltable iceberg. Other than you, I have never seen him put on a smile for any woman before.”
