One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 187 She Went After Him

Anna was lightheaded from the slap. When she finally came back around, she lifted her head and revealed a bright red handprint on her right cheek.

With trembling hands, she cradled her face and glared at Courtney in disbelief.

“How dare you hit me?”

“That was a slap on behalf of Dad. Dad is still fighting for his life in the operating room, but what did you say? When he wakes up later, you better kneel in front of him and repeat every single word you just said.”

Anna felt her heart thump in her chest as she bit down on her lower lip.

In the heat of the moment, she remembered saying that her father was going to die soon.

More importantly, Courtney had caught that and was not letting go.

“This is a hospital, and we’re outside the operating room. If you want to cry and make a fuss, please do it somewhere else. You can go anywhere you want. Don’t disgrace yourselves here. If you want to stay, then keep your mouths shut.”

Courtney did not speak loudly, but every word she uttered left no room for interference.

Discontented, Anna wanted to break free from Susan’s arms and continue arguing, but she heard Cameron’s quiet voice from the side.

“What’s wrong? Was that slap not hard enough, Miss Hunter? Before security gets here, in order to prevent any disturbances to the ongoing surgery, I think that even the police wouldn’t have anything to say if I were to take matters into my own hands.”

“You…”

“Anna.”

A sharp-witted Susan pulled her daughter back to her side. Despite having an ashen look on her face, she swallowed her pride and apologized, “Anna made a mistake in the heat of the moment earlier. Of course, we want Luke to overcome this more than anyone else. We won’t cause a disturbance anymore. We’ll be waiting over there.”

At this crucial time when both of their fates were about to be decided, they could not get kicked out of this place. Even if it brought her shame, Susan had to secure her place with her daughter at that moment.
