One Night Surprise

Chapter 449 I Bought Gifts for You Every Year

“I know that you asked Great-Aunt Alicia to let Aunt Kate take care of me because you’re scared that I would be bullied. Aunt Kate treats me very well.”

The boy’s eyes were red like a rabbit’s as he sat there in the huge office.

Courtney felt as though she was seeing the previous version of Jordan five years ago, when he always hugged her leg and was never willing to talk. However, he was now almost the same height as herself.

“Sweetheart, I’m sorry that I’m always not by your side.”

When she left Melrose City five years ago, she was too worried to let him stay here all by himself, but there was nothing she could do since he chose to stay by Alexander’s side.

Then, Alicia’s adopted daughter, Kate, had just graduated from university and was looking for a job. After she heard about Courtney’s situation, she took the initiative to apply for a job in Sunhill Enterprise. Kate applied for the job through official procedures but Alexander found out her true identity afterward, which was why she was soon arranged to be Jordan’s assistant in order to look after him.

Since then, Kate’s identity had become an open secret within the company but five years later, most of the staff members had changed, so no one knew who Jordan’s real mother was, causing many rumors.

“I know that you have your own difficulties. By the way, did Tina come back too?”

Courtney was now overwhelmed by feelings as she wiped her tears and hiccuped, “Yes, she’s back. I’ll see if I can take her along to meet you in two days.”
