Chapter 334 I Hope You’ll Always Be by My Side

After leaving Oliver’s place, Courtney dropped him off at his school. On one hand, the school wanted him to follow up and write a report about the topic of anti-narcotics after the military exercise. On the other hand, she felt a little awkward if he followed her home after the truth had been revealed.

Thank God there’s the military exercise as the excuse, Courtney thought in relief.

While she was on the way to the kindergarten to pick up the kids after dropping off Oliver, she received a call from Alexander.

“Where are you?”

“On my way to the kindergarten. I’m halfway there now.”

“Don’t bother.” He intentionally softened his tone, sounding very gentle as he said, “Mr. Harry is on his way to pick up the kids. Let’s go out for dinner tonight.”

“We’re having dinner outside? With Grandpa?” Pausing for a moment, Courtney realized that it was New Year’s Eve tonight. “Then, I’ll go back to change first.”

“There’s no one else but us.”

His voice was especially husky and attractive, which made the blood rush to her face before she spoke. “Wait for me. I’m going back to change.”

 

“You don’t have to change. Just come in comfortable clothes.”

“No, this is a date!”
