One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 248 I Only Accept 20 Million

Oliver’s words make sense. If he doesn’t have any definite evidence to support his statement, he wouldn’t say something like that. “If your goal is to protect Courtney, I will take my words back, but the premise is that I need to know what you found.”

Oliver chuckled. “Information like this is usually sold for 100,000 when I worked in this line, but now, you are staring at me menacingly without even treating me to a drink. Are you planning to scam me?”

After looking at him thoroughly and weighing the benefit of the outcome, Alexander softened his hostile look. “Are you free? Let’s go and have a drink then.”

Businessmen are always the same when it comes to adapting to current circumstances.

Inside a quaint teahouse in the city, the atmosphere was aromatic and bamboo was used to separate the rooms. There was adequate distance between the private rooms to prevent any disturbance to the nearby guests.

With just a few words, Oliver recalled what he had investigated. “This is all that I know. If you think that it won’t affect Courtney at all, you can call the cops and use your family’s connections to throw me behind bars for 8 to 10 days.”

While playing with a delicate purple sand cup in his hand, Alexander gazed at Oliver’s face as he seemed to be lost in his own thoughts. “Even if what you are saying is real, how can I be sure that you don’t have other motives toward Courtney?”

“You can’t.” Oliver seemed fearless. “Because I do have other motives toward her. Don’t forget that she is now single, so I have the right to pursue her.”

Immediately, Alexander’s face darkened. “Are you really going to be that fearless?”

Oliver casually looked at the orchid pattern on the purple sand cup while simply answering, “Your threats are useless to me. Rather than wondering what my motives are toward Courtney, you should think of a way to snatch your position as president soon so that you don’t have to look over your shoulder all the time.”

“You don’t need to worry about that.” Alexander glared at him. “You’ve thoroughly investigated my family’s affairs, so I can’t help but feel suspicious of you. What do you have to say about that?”
