One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 264 Are We Sharing a Room Tonight?

After an entire night of discussion about the PR measures to be taken, the rumors online seemed to take a turn for the better after the company posted the public disclaimer online. They worked overtime right till midnight before everyone from Citrus Apparel finally called it a day.

Courtney walked down the stairs with Bill, only to find that Oliver had been waiting for her for a long time.

When Bill saw Oliver, he nodded as a form of greeting. Then, he told Courtney, “I’ll take my leave now. Take care.”

“Okay. Thanks for all the hard work.”

“No worries. I would suggest you to be more careful these few days. Ask people to accompany you when you go out, because cyberbullying is not something trivial.” After all, Bill had experienced these personally, so he felt worried for Courtney, as though he was the victim as well.

Courtney nodded. “Don’t worry.”

When she reached home, the lights in the living room were still on but the entire house was quiet.

After she opened the door, Alexander walked out of the kids bedroom.

“They’re both asleep?” Courtney asked without thinking.

“Yes.” Alexander nodded. “Has everything been resolved?”

“You knew what happened?”

Courtney put her bag down and took off her shoes before going to the kitchen to pour herself a cup of tea.

Even Alexander—who never goes online—knows about this, which means that it’s quite a big incident.

“Truth is, it’s hard to not know about it. I heard that the blue collar workers of the Hunter Group are making a fuss again. The Hunter Group is only a street away from Sunhill Enterprise, so of course he knows about it,” Oliver replied for Alexander as he sat on the couch.

After shooting Oliver a glance, Alexander followed Courtney into the kitchen to help her out.
