One Night Surprise Chapter 472Chapter 472 You Weren’t This Adorable in the Past
Everyone was stunned when they heard that.
Courtney, as if by magic, took two out marriage certificates from nowhere and smilingly said, “We
registered our marriage the second day Alexander was discharged. So, none of you need to push us
for it now; we’re legally married.”
Everyone at the table then started passing the certificates around and inspecting them. Cameron
exhaled a sigh of relief after a round of passing and said sentimentally, “At long last. After so many
years, finally the both of you are married now. We don’t have to worry about it anymore.”
Gale immediately followed. “That’s right. My wife no longer needs to assist Courtney in hiding anything
from me in the future.”
“So it appears that there is another person to be rushed for marriage.” Courtney then gave Oliver and
Tess a contemplative look.
They both exchanged glances in response. Have we just created trouble for ourselves? they wondered.
…
Despite Courtney’s belief that the marriage registration was sufficient, Scott insisted on holding a
wedding ceremony after learning of their registration. Not only that, but he promised that he would take
care of everything and that Courtney and Alexander would not have to do anything except to show up
on the day of the ceremony.
“You both have nothing to be concerned about. Harry will arrange everything.”
Scott was so energized by this joyous occasion that he looked even better than before.Courtney exchanged glances with everyone in the Duncan family before saying, “Grandpa, it all
depends on you whether our wedding ceremony can go on.”
“Why?
“Have you decided on the surgery?”
Hearing that, Scott was stunned and the smile on his face froze.
“I spoke with your attending doctor, Grandpa. Your condition does not allow for further delay and you
really need the surgery now.”
Her words made Scott frown. After a brief pause, Scott, with a solemn expression, replied. “Fine. I’ll
only go for the surgery after the wedding ceremony.”
All of them who were present looked at each other, unsure of what to say.
Just as Courtney was about to convince him further, Scott raised one hand and stopped her from
speaking.
“I know that every surgery carries risk. Don’t tell me that the risk for mine is minimal; the risks remain. I
don’t want to die before seeing Alexander marry. It has been so long, Courtney, that I feel tired seeing
the two of you not settling down yet. I can only rest my mind after seeing you both married. After that,
I’ll be able to go ahead with my surgery at ease. If something goes wrong with the surgery, at least I
can rest in peace knowing that you both are together, and if it goes well, every day after that is what
God bestows on me.”
All the younger generations in the room had their eyes welled up with tears after hearing Scott’s words.
“We’ll do as you wish, Grandpa.” Courtney said with her voice choked with sobs while wiping her tears.Alexander, who was standing beside, pulled her into his arms. Though he couldn’t really remember the
past, his heart ached seeing her in this manner.
Due to the urgency of Scott’s surgery, the wedding preparation began in full swing.
Courtney had to work, and the hospital was so busy all the time that she didn’t have the time to do
anything else. Hence, Alexander was in charge of the preparation.
When she said she didn’t have the time to try on the wedding gown, he brought the designer straight to
her office in the hospital and made use of her ten-minute lunch break for the designer to take her
measurements as well as for her to choose the style that she wanted. Seeing that, all of the nurses
blushed with envy.
And no matter what time it was, he would always get her to and from the hospital on time.
In the early morning of a thunderstorm day, she had a sudden night shift. As she walked out from the
hospital after her night shift, she saw his car parked at the entrance. Doubtfully, she opened the door
and found him sleeping inside. “Oh my, why are you still here?”
Drowsy-eyed, he answered, “You’ve knocked off?”
“Didn’t I tell you I had an unexpected night shift and couldn’t leave until the next person on shift arrive
in the morning? You were here for the entire night?”
“It’s not a big deal. Come on, get in the car.” He adjusted his posture and yawned. “I’m afraid that you’ll
be too tired to drive after working for the whole night.”
novelbinHearing that, she had no idea what to say. “I really take my hat off to you. You have a meeting in the
morning, right?”
“Yes. I’ll go to the company after sending you home.”Sitting in the passenger seat, Courtney felt touched and her heart warmed.
Throughout the journey home, Alexander found that she was staring at him. Smilingly, he asked, “Why
are you staring at me? Is there anything on my face?”
“I’m just wondering if you’d be the same person you are now after you regained your memory.”
“Why? I wasn’t like this in the past?”
“Yeah.” Leaning on the seat, she continued teasing him, “You weren’t this adorable in the past.”
Adorable?
He frowned at that, seemingly resistant to her description of himself.
She then laughed. “Focus on your driving. Let the driver fetch you to the company later. You hadn’t had
a good rest for the entire night, so don’t drive while you’re tired.
The sun had just risen and the breakfast stalls by the roadside had opened.
He stopped and bought breakfast for her as they passed by. “Grab something first, so you can sleep
longer later,” he said as he handed her the soymilk.
“Okay.”
“I may not be home for lunch later. The designer will be bringing the wedding gown around one o’clock
in the afternoon for you to try on and check if there are any modifications needed.”
“Okay.”
While he was nagging all the way home, she had already fallen into deep sleep by the time they
reached.The servant who opened the door for them wanted to wake her up but was stopped by him.
He carefully removed her safety belt before picking her up in his arms and carrying her to the bedroom,
where he covered her with a blanket and pulled the curtains closed.
In the dark room, she turned around on the bed after the door was closed and smiled sweetly to herself
while staring at the door.
Two weeks later, Courtney and Alexander’s wedding ceremony was held in a private manor in the
outskirts of Melrose.
The guests included all of Melrose’s nobles in both political and business circles, as well as many
upper-class women.
The vast lawn appeared endless, and with a green lake in the background, the red carpet stretched as
far as the eyes could see. Courtney walked slowly on it, dressed in a pure white gown and holding
William’s arms. Jordan, Tina, Josephine, and Ethan were the four flower girls and boys who trailed her.
Alexander was at the other end of the red carpet, dressed in a white suit. He stood upright by the stage
where they would exchange vows. Looking at his bride as she approached, he extended his hand.
“Please come on stage, the groom and bride, and bow as you thank all your friends and families who
are here today.”
The vow was then read aloud by the clergy. “Mr. Duncan, in God’s name, are you willing to take Ms.
Hunter as your wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better or for worse, in your riches
and in your poverty, in sickness and in health, until death make you part?”
“I do.”“Ms. Hunter, in God’s name, are you willing to take Mr. Duncan as your husband, to have and to hold
from this day forward, for better or for worse, in your riches and in your poverty, in sickness and in
health, until death make you part?”
“I do.”
Both of them looked at each other, and at this moment, they needed no words between them.
Alexander looked at the woman standing before him, and suddenly, all the blurry images in the back of
his mind became clear, and their past played out in his mind like a movie.
He was stunned, and his eyes gradually turned reddish.
“……”
“The groom and the bride, you may exchange rings now.”
“……”
“It’s time to throw the wedding bouquet!”
