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.

Courtney knew the things that both Alexander and her did back then must have hurt the old man, but she never expected that Scott’s refusal to perform his surgery was because of her.

After lunch, Kate drove Courtney back to the hospital.

“It’s okay. You’re only doing this for me.”

“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.”

for Courtney, she was itching to ask Kate if she gave up on a stable job previously to join the Sunhill Enterprise as a secretary because she knew about Courtney’s relationship with Alexander. Because of me, Jordan would definitely trust her and Alexander would treat her differently as well, which would give her respect from everyone in the company. This is probably why she achieved a solid status in the company in just five years. However, Courtney chose not to ask this as she believed that everyone had themselves to look out for. Overall, Kate is still a kind person. Even though she has used some means to get here, she is still doing all
