One Night Surprise Chapter 247Chapter 247 Why Should I Believe You?
Since the next day was Friday, Oliver took the initiative to send Tina to school during breakfast. “Just
treat it as me paying the rent,” he explained. “I’m afraid that I’ll be staying here for a while.”
Courtney served a bowl of porridge in front of him. “It isn’t a problem even if you stay here forever. After
all, I’m the one who knocked you down and you’re helping me a lot. You can stay in peace here. If you
have the free time, you can continue to investigate your identity.” Upon mentioning that, she continued
to ask, “By the way, how is your investigation in Campus City? How many schools have you not looked
at?”
For a moment, he was startled, so he lowered his head to conceal the serenity in his eyes. “There
aren’t many left. I think there are still about 5 or 6 schools that I haven’t looked at. Two of them are
teachers’ colleges, so it’ll be easy.”
“Then, I’ll accompany you this weekend.”
“No need for that. You are busy. I can just go there myself.” He lifted his head when his expression
returned to normal.
Upon seeing Oliver being insistent, Courtney had nothing else to say, but she was still a little
concerned. Actually, she wanted to ask Alexander to help investigate Oliver’s identity. Logically
speaking, as long as they had Oliver’s picture and fingerprints, they could search for his identity in the
public security bureau’s database. However, as she had broken up with Alexander afterward, she never
mentioned her request to him.
After breakfast, Oliver sent Tina to school. At that moment, the bidding was imminent since the Sakura
Group had set the deadline at today evening, so Courtney could not spend more time with them as she
went straight to the company.“President Hunter, this is the revised tender. Please take a look at it.” Inside her office, the manager of
the administration department, Martin, gave Courtney the tender’s revised version for her to peruse
and sign.
After carefully scanning the document to ensure that there was no problem, she signed her name
before handing it back to him. “Alright. That’ll be enough. You can send this tender straight to the
Sakura Group in a short while.”
“Alright,” he quickly replied. “By the way, we mentioned before that we should ask someone to keep an
eye on the Sakura Group. Have you found a suitable candidate?”
“Yes, I have.” Courtney nodded.
Martin looked at her expression and asked cautiously, “Who is it? Is it someone from our company?”
“No. It is someone professional.” Courtney wrote on a document while simply giving Martin a glance.
“You don’t need to worry about this. You only need to settle the tender and deal with any feedback from
Sakura Group in due course.”
He withdrew his gaze and awkwardly replied, “Yes. I understand.”
After he left, she glanced at the door. I’m not being overly suspicious. Citron is now in a critical stage of
development and we are just one step away from getting through all of this. If I trust the wrong person
at this point, all of this will be for nothing.
At Sapphire Kindergarten, Alexander sent Jordan to the school gate, but he refused to enter alone.
Alexander had no choice but to wait with him for Tina at the school gate. Tina finally showed up when it
was close to 9:00AM.“Why are you here? Where’s Courtney?” After seeing the person who sent her to school, Alexander’s
face immediately changed.
“By the sound of it, am I not supposed to send Tina here?” Oliver looked at him with a faint smile.
“Besides, didn’t you already break up with Courtney? Please don’t call her intimately to prevent any
misunderstanding since it won’t be good for the kids’ school life.”
“Does that have anything to do with you?” Alexander’s eyes darkened. “Ever since you disappeared
from the hotel without a trace, I thought I needed to make a police report to see whether you were
taken to the neurological hospital for a consultation. By the looks of it now, do you need me to help you
check into a hospital again?”
“No need for that.” Oliver looked at him while his youthful face had an imposing smile. “I’m now living
quite well in Courtney’s house, so you don’t need to worry about me.”
When Alexander heard Oliver’s words, his face grew even gloomier.
After watching Tina entering the school, Oliver did not wish to talk to Alexander anymore. Just as he
was about to leave, Alexander’s deep voice was heard from behind.
“Oliver Ford, a level-17 investigative and counter-reconnaissance major in Public Security University.
That’s you, right?” Oliver was startled as he slowly turned to meet Alexander’s cold gaze. “Judging from
your reaction, I can tell that you know your identity. If that’s the case, why did you lie to everyone and
pretend to be an amnesia patient to gain sympathy by staying beside Courtney? What is your goal?”
“Goal?” Oliver smirked disdainfully. “Unlike you, not everything I do is for a goal. What if I tell you that I
simply like Courtney and I’m happy to stay by her side?”“By lying about your identity?” Alexander’s face grew colder. “I think the police station is more suited for
you to stay in.”
“Now that you are being spied on all the time by someone, what good will it give you for sending me to
the police?” Oliver remained calm as he explained unhurriedly. “If I were you, I will continue to allow me
to stay by Courtney’s side. Firstly, I can protect her safety. Secondly, I can help you find out what the
hell is going on behind James’s back since he just robbed you of your position as president. How is he
able to double the company’s performance after taking the position for less than half a month?”
After listening to him, Alexander’s eyes darkened even more. He had long known that Oliver was not
an ordinary character. When he first looked into Oliver’s student profile in Public Security University, he
could tell that the latter was a meticulous person who was unheard of after comparing his
recommendation letter with his school project.
novelbinJosh went to the university to inquire about Oliver and the professor at the school commented, “Oliver
is an investigative and counter-connaissance genius that only shows up once in a century. If he uses
his mind on the right path, he will be the jewel of the criminal investigation world. Vice versa, he will
leave the whole criminal investigation world at a loss.”
Such high praise did not come from nowhere as it was all based on evidence. In a crime-solving
contest organized by the Public Security University and the special criminal investigation unit, Oliver
was the first person to apprehend the suspect while simultaneously creating another perfect crime to
get away scot free. During the crime simulation, he received a punishment, but it also directly allowed
him to receive qualifications for undergraduate, master and doctorate studies in the university.
“Why should I believe you?” Alexander stared into Oliver’s eyes to search for the slightest look that he
was delaying time or fooling himself.Instead, Oliver gently smiled. “You can choose not to trust me, but you should know that hiding my
identity from Courtney won’t be enough to send me to prison. Instead, she might feel that you are
making a big scene and causing trouble.”
At this, Alexander’s face darkened for the umpteenth time. After a while of silence, he asked with a
gloomy face, “You just said that Courtney will be in danger. Why is that?”
“I can find out what kind of a person James is, but I’m afraid as his cousin, you would know him more
than me, right? He is the kind of person that will do anything to achieve his goals. If you make him
really desperate, no one will know what he is capable of doing.” Oliver’s voice deepened. “I have no
control over your family’s internal fights, but if it involves Courtney, I won’t turn a blind eye to it.”
