One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 198

Chapter 198 Afraid That I’ll Hit Her?

“Before questioning me, think about how you’re speaking to me.”

The more Courtney thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. Everything that had been on her mind during this period came pouring out. “You think that it’s expected of me to put Jordan first. I’ve admitted that Jordan and Tina are both equally important to me, but you didn’t believe me, nor did you acknowledge it. I really want to know; where in my heart do you want me to place Tina? And have you ever considered Tina as your family before? As your own daughter?”

“Also, about your childhood sweetheart, Mikayla a.k.a. Miss Vivian Shepherd. Sure, you said that she’s your sister, and I believed you. But, did you know about the suspicions that arose? The rumors that were spreading? Even your cousin knows that you look down on me. If Vivian is your fiancée, then what does that make me? A secret lover for you to spend your money on?” All the yelling was making Courtney exhausted. She snarled viciously, “I’m not that despicable!”

After pouring everything out in one breath, she stared at Alexander for several moments. Her eyes were red-rimmed and her head was lowered as if she was being terribly insulted.

“Let go of me!” Her upset cries drifted in the wind.

Alexander was strong, and the hand clutching Courtney’s was stuck firmly like glue. She couldn’t shake him off no matter how hard she tried.

After a long time, he began in a hoarse voice, “I’m sorry about the children. I was wrong, but it’s not that I didn’t consider your situation or your mood… That day, I…”

Whatever he said next was incoherent.

He was so upset that he couldn’t form proper words.

 

How could he be so unreasonable as to ask a mother to give up on her own child and place all her attention on someone else’s child instead? At that time, he had acted preposterously because Jordan’s situation had put him in a bad mood.

“I’m sorry.”

Men rarely explained themselves. Even though the words were on the verge of his lips, all that came out was an apology. Others may have found it superficial, but those two words carried an extremely heavy weight to him.

He understood now that his reputation wasn’t that important, nor were the trivialities in life. Only when one’s life was at stake would they be able to clearly see what was of utmost importance.
