One Night Surprise

Chapter 374 Don’t Let Anyone In

Cameron learned about Courtney’s injury from the doctor in charge. Her lower body had been torn, and she needed two stitches—she didn’t even have to think twice to know what had happened.

“So what if he found out everything? You’re the victim here.”

In the ward, Cameron was livid, so much so that she was turning blue from the anger. “Let me find him.”

“Cameron.” Courtney fought through the pain and grabbed Cameron. “Don’t go.”

Seeing Courtney’s sickly face, Cameron’s anger grew even more, and her expression became even more unsightly, but she finally sat down in a snit.

“So are you just going to let this go? If he doesn’t apologize to you properly this time, why would you still marry him? No matter how rich and powerful he or his family is, he can’t just trample over people like this. If Aunt Alicia finds out about this, she would feel super bad for you; you know that, right?”

Courtney was silent for a moment, then she continued to say, “Don’t tell Aunt Alicia about this.”

“Are you kidding me?” Cameron raised her brows. “What makes you think you can hide this from her? Today is the eve of the mid-winter holiday, and your aunt is going crazy looking for you. I don’t know how many calls she’s made so far.”

“I’m not getting married,” Courtney said all of a sudden.

Cameron’s expression was deadpan for a long time, then she sighed deeply. “I don’t think the marriage will work out now, but even if you don’t tell your aunt, I don’t think you should marry Alexander—he is just too stubborn and extreme. Why couldn’t he put himself in your shoes?”

“I’m tired.”

Courtney didn’t seem to want to hear anything about Alexander anymore and rested her head on the pillow with an exhausted look.

When Cameron saw her like this, she knew it was her cue to stop talking about him or anything related to him now.

“Then take a rest and don’t worry. I’ll find a way to handle the rest. As for your aunt… I’ll figure something out too.”

“Okay.” Courtney nodded weakly. She then pulled the quilt up and covered it all the way to her face, only revealing a pair of tired eyes, which she slowly closed.

After closing the door behind her, Cameron stood at the door with her brows furrowed. After standing there for a while, she pulled out her phone and made a call.
