One Night Surprise

Chapter 381 I Will, if You Want Me To

When Alexander rushed back from the company, Courtney had already been treated by a doctor.

“How is she? Why wasn’t she admitted into a hospital?” As soon as he entered the house, he scolded all the servants at once.

Frightened by his demeanor, the servants said stutteringly, “You ordered us to not let her out, so we didn’t dare to send her to a hospital. Instead, the doctor came for a house visit. He diagnosed that it was a blood clot, and that she would be fine after puking it out.”

“If she’s already fine, then why is she still unconscious?”

“It’s… because of fatigue.”

Under extreme frustration, Alexander smashed all the bowls and plates into pieces.

These two days had been a wreckfest, as all the things in the villa were either smashed or destroyed by Alexander. The servants had grown used to this, but seeing him being this furious was a first. All of them kept their mouths shut, and they didn’t dare to utter a single word.

After scolding everybody, Alexander turned around and entered his bedroom, barring anyone from entering.

In the living room, May slowly sighed. “See? I told you all to prioritize Miss Hunter’s health. If anything happened, we couldn’t bear the responsibility, yet you all chose to ignore my warning.”

“It was the young master who forbade her from going out.”

“Do you guys not see why the young master gave that order?” May spoke angrily. “It’s all because he was afraid Miss Hunter wouldn’t return anymore after leaving. Thank God she’s fine even after not being admitted to a hospital. If her condition was any worse, we would all be on the chopping block.”

Hearing this, the servants all looked at each other with lingering fear in their hearts.

At first, the servants transferred over from the ancestral house because of the wedding, paired with the rumor that the young mistress had a kind temperament. Who knew that they would face this kind of situation when they had just arrived. They truly were stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Inside the master bedroom, the curtains were shut tightly, with the sole light source being an incense burner. Sitting by the bedside, Alexander tugged the blanket all the way up to Courtney’s chin.
