One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 88 Mommy, Why Are You Crying?

As soon as Courtney heard that, she felt as if her blood, which was boiling moments ago, was frozen in an instant. The entire Melrose City is such a big place—why does it have to be him?

However, after carefully thinking about it, apart from the Duncan Family, no one would have been able to use the Sunrise Enterprise’s future to threaten people back then.

At that moment, Alexander was not at the same location as he was earlier—he seemed to be preoccupied with other matters and had already returned to the hotel.

Upon thinking about that, she looked at a spot not far away from her and saw a tiny figure who was building the first prototype of a sandcastle with her daughter. His young facial features looked increasingly familiar to her.

Apart from slightly panicking, she had believed the truth without any hesitation. The son whom I’ve been thinking about for the past five years has been right in front of me all this while. Yet, as his mother, I couldn’t even recognize him!

As the waves crashed into her feet, she stood frozen on the ground as she could not even move her feet. After taking a few steps with great difficulty, she could no longer withstand her anguish and sobbed.

“Mommy!” Tina suddenly ran to her. “Look at the castles we just built…”

Courtney quickly turned to hide the tears swimming in her eyes, but Tina saw everything and asked in a fluster, “Mommy, why are you crying?”

“I didn’t cry.” Courtney’s words did not have any logic in them. “It’s the wind. The wind is too strong, so the sand has entered my eyes.”

Jordan also ran toward her. With a worried expression on his face, he took her hands and looked at her carefully when he saw her. She thought to herself, His eyes look exactly the same as Tina’s. I’ve never even suspected this—even though both of them have similar features!

As Courtney thought about that, she could no longer control her tears from streaming down her face. Then, she slowly crouched and looked at the child who did not grow up with her—the complicated feelings that she suppressed almost tore her into pieces.

He was anxious upon seeing that. His little hand carelessly wiped the tears away from her cheeks as he himself almost burst into tears.
