One Night Surprise

Chapter 450 It’s Time to Put Our Plan Into Motion

It had been half a month since Scott got admitted into the hospital and since then, Courtney had never met him. To be fair, there was also an element of her avoiding him. After all, they almost became a family in the past, so she felt that it would be awkward for them to meet since she didn’t know what to say.

“You can say that I’m a bit biased too.” Kate chuckled and added, “I was worried that I wouldn’t know what to do if Alicia knew about the grievances you suffered in Sunhill Enterprise.”

“You don’t need to be worried. In fact, I should be grateful that you’ve been taking care of Jordan for all these years.”

“If Alicia hadn’t sponsored me throughout university, I would have stayed in the village after high school, teaching primary school students for a living. Now that I’m doing pretty well, I should be grateful. Everyone has their own choices, and the choice that I made back then was actually an opportunity all along.”
