One Night Surprise

Chapter 369 Don’t Go Back Tonight

Because she knew what had been on Alexander’s mind that day, after their meal, Courtney asked him to return the movie tickets before dragging him to the riverbank for a walk.

It was bitterly cold, and the wind along the river was particularly harsh.

Alexander held her hand and stuffed it into his coat pocket. “If I had known you didn’t like all that, I wouldn’t have wasted my time. I should have stayed home with you today.”

“It’s all right.” Courtney spoke in a gentle tone. “At least I know that you think about me and will think of ways to treat me well. If Aunt Alicia knows about this, she would be happy.”

Alexander fell silent for a second.

“Don’t tell anyone about this.”

Courtney laughed. “What else did you have arranged besides watching a movie today? Honestly, I’m quite curious.”

Alexander’s gaze fell on the trunk of his car in the distance.

Taking a glance at him, she jogged over. The trunk opened slowly, revealing a huge purple gift box.

“This is for me?” Courtney pointed to herself and asked Alexander, who gave a slight nod, looking slightly embarrassed.

After she undid the bow, she saw that inside was a brown stuffed bear. “It’s cute!””

She took the bear out of the box and had just squeezed it when the bear suddenly burst out laughing.

It frightened her, and with a shake of her hand, the bear was thrown onto the ground.

The fat doll twisted around on the ground, looking like it was suffering a cramp as it continued to laugh.

Courtney was stunned for a long time. Then, unable to hold it back, she held the car and laughed louder than the bear, nearly bursting into tears.

“Is it so funny?”
