One Night Surprise Chapter 212

One Night Surprise Chapter 212Chapter 212 No, He Is My Brother
Not much time was needed to heal from a burn, and Courtney could walk without any problems one
week later.
The resort development project under Sunhill Enterprise had been delayed for some time. Therefore,
Alexander immediately went on non-stop business trips after confirming that Courtney was fine.
“The discussion for this project must be completed within three days. Organize a team meeting as soon
as the plane lands.” He issued a strict order to Josh at the airport.
“Three days?!” Josh was so shocked that his eyes almost fell out of their sockets. “President Duncan,
that’s not enough time! They—”
“I don’t want to hear any excuses. If the discussions are not completed within three days, you can lead
the team yourself and continue with the discussions. I’m heading back to Melrose City. I have
something urgent to deal with.”
“Huh?” Josh could barely believe what he was hearing. “That’s a project worth several hundreds of
millions! What could be more important than that?!”
“A private matter.” Alexander frowned slightly; his expression was colored with bitter resentment. If I
heard it right, that man named Elijah Grant will be coming back to Melrose City this week. I have no
reason not to meet this man. Besides, I have the right to know just what the relationship between
Courtney and him is.
“Right now, we’re just waiting for ventilation to be installed. The ventilation here is quite good, and we
have purchased the second-hand office supplies as you instructed. So, it won’t take long before you
can start using this place.” The head of the renovation team personally reported to Courtney. AfterCourtney inspected their work, she paid the remaining fees for the renovation. She glanced about the
newly renovated two-story building, feeling incredibly excited.
The style of the décor was based on the industrial style Cameron mentioned before. The walls were
painted smoky gray; it was a color that was dirt-proof yet looked good. The first floor was the
administrative office while the second floor was the designer’s workshop and the clothing prototype
studio. Although the place was not big, it was created by both Cameron and Courtney themselves.
At the thought of Cameron, Courtney couldn’t stop herself from calling. As expected, it was Gale who
answered. “How has Cameron been the past two days?”
“She can recognize people now. Her mental condition seems quite okay, but she is still very lethargic.
Yesterday, she stared at the window for quite some time. I was worried about something happening, so
I had some people over to install anti-theft grilles on the windows.” He was living in an apartment on the
31st floor. The installation team must have thought that he was crazy to install anti-theft grilles on a
window when his apartment was located so high up. After all, only Spiderman could climb through his
windows to steal anything.
“It must have been hard on you,” she said helplessly. “I suggest you send her to the hospital if you find
it difficult to go on taking care of her. Cameron once told me before that being hospitalized helped her
recover better.”
novelbin“No need; I can take care of her.” His voice was extremely determined. He probably decided that he
would never allow Cameron to be hospitalized.
Thus, Courtney did not push the issue. Having somebody take care of her is always better than having
no one there for her. Besides, I’ve seen the situation at a psychiatric hospital before. It’s utter mayhem
in there. Even an ordinary person like me would probably be driven crazy if I were forced to live there,
let alone Cameron who is already in a sensitive state.“She slept a lot less today compared to yesterday. You should come and visit her if you have the time.
You’re welcome at any time.”
“Of course. The company renovations have been completed. At first, I wanted to share this news with
her. But, it’s okay. I will go and visit here after I finish up here.”
“Okay.”
After exchanging a few more words, they hung up. Courtney could not bear to say too much to Gale. If
Cameron were still rational, she would never allow Gale to see her in this condition. Unfortunately, it
just had to happen when Courtney was not by Cameron’s side. Thus, Courtney always felt that her
negligence was what dragged Gale into this whole mess.
On the other side, Gale put down the phone and looked in the direction of the bedroom. The curtains
were drawn shut, and the lights were dim—Cameron had fallen asleep.
All of a sudden, the phone beeped. A message notification popped up, and the name of the sender was
‘Giselle’. ‘Mom asked me to bring something for you. I’m already downstairs.’ Gale’s hand shook, and
he almost dropped the phone.
Tina had been playing with an LED sign in the yard of the Duncans’ ancestral home all afternoon.
Shay’s concert was being held tonight at Melrose Stadium, and she had obtained two VIP tickets to his
concert in advance. As one of Shay’s greatest fans, it was only natural for her to go to his concert to
support him.
“Jordan, are you really not going?” She flipped the LED sign upside down, which had the words ‘Fly
bravely, Shay! Tina will follow you forever!’ written on it, as she simultaneously asked Jordan, who
looked to be in a bad mood. “Jordan, I have two tickets! Won’t you go with me?”Jordan glanced at the LED sign contemptuously. Then, he shook his head resolutely. He wrote some
words on his drawing board and pressed the voice button. A robotic AI voice immediately rang out in
the yard. “No way. The songs he sings don’t sound good. Besides, the venue is so noisy.”
She pouted and glared at him. “You’re not allowed to talk about my brother like that! I’m going to get
angry.”
He became even more upset at those words and swiftly typed out a bunch of words. “I’m your brother.
Shay is not your brother; he is clearly your uncle!”
“No, no, no! He is not my uncle; he is my brother!” She was so furious that her face was flushed.
At that moment, an excited voice came from the other side of the yard. “It’s Shay’s LED sign!” Hannah
flew across the yard at full speed and pointed at the LED sign on the stone table. She excitedly said,
“This is Shay’s LED sign! Are you going to Shay’s concert too?!”
Although she just entered junior high school, her stature was no different from that of a primary school
student due to the malnutrition she experienced before. Therefore, she looked very thin and weak.
“Are you a fan of Shay too?” Tina stared wide-eyed at the ‘grand aunt’ she rarely encountered.
“Yup.” Hannah nodded very seriously. Then, she regretfully said, “But, the tickets were gone as soon as
they came out. I couldn’t get any… So, I can only listen to it from outside.”
“I have tickets!” Tina immediately lifted the two tickets into the air. “Do you want to go with me?”
“Really?!” Hannah accepted the two tickets as if she had received a great treasure. She was so
emotional that she couldn’t speak properly anymore. “Oh, my God! It’s tickets to the interactive zone!
You can see Shay from up close!”“It’s not just tickets to the interactive zone; we can even go backstage with these tickets! Shay and I
have a close relationship.” Tina looked proud of herself. She was completely oblivious to the fact that
the expression of the person sitting behind her had turned extremely dark while the two girls were
happily chatting away. That’s my ticket! Didn’t you say you were giving them to me?! Why are you
giving them to somebody else now?!
“I remember you! I remember you! You are the one who took part in the travel show with Shay!”
Hannah studied Tina’s face and realized that fact belatedly. “Oh, my God! Why have I never noticed?! I
was only paying attention to Shay at the time.”
Tina touched her head embarrassedly. “Haha, it’s all in the past now. Mr. Harry will be coming to pick
me up soon. Let’s go together.”
“Sure, sure. I brought a lot of snacks. I’ll be right back after I get them.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Their two cheerful backs were reflected in Jordan’s eyes as they left. Staring at them blankly, he
couldn’t believe that his sister had been taken away by his grand aunt.
