One Night Surprise Chapter 389

Chapter 389 Nothing to Discuss

Courtney didn’t expect Alexander’s attitude to remain unchanged after she had told him the whole truth about everything and talked to him calmly and patiently. “Alexander.” Her hands clenched into fists as her eyebrows furrowed in pique. “Can’t you put your prejudices aside? How many more prejudices are you gonna hold against me because I didn’t tell you the truth? Do you honestly think I’d hurt my own child? I don’t think I’m going too far in asking for this.”

Alexander’s eyes were stony. “Yeah, you’re not going too far. It’s totally reasonable for a mother to ask to see her own child. But didn’t Louis make everything clear to you back when you signed the contract? What I wanted was a mother who would never show up in Melrose City—a mother who is nothing but a tool for procreation.”

“That’s why I said I’m leaving!” Courtney’s voice went up a few pitches all at once. “I’m just trying to discuss it with you.”

“There’s nothing to discuss.”

“Okay, fine.” Seeing that there was no way the conversation could go on, Courtney had no choice but to meet Alexander halfway. “Just think of this as me being unfair to you by not telling you at once after learning about the truth. I’m not gonna fight for Jordan’s custody anymore. After all, I don’t want him to feel bad in case he learns about this when he grows up. I’ll drop the lawsuit for the sake of the two kids,” she said. Then, she picked up her handbag and got up. “I’m going back to the hospital first.”

Alexander stood up as well. Then, seeing that she was leaving for real without a backward glance, he ran out after her.

A cool wind whistled past the front of the cafe. Alexander yelled at Courtney from behind, “What makes you think you’re so wronged?”

His question stumped Courtney for a moment. Then, she heard the man ask, “You’ve never thought about anything other than the kids. What am I to you, then?”
