One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 377 I Beg of You Please Return Tina

Once Alexander left the club, Courtney called Cameron, but nobody picked up.

While ordering the driver to drive faster, Elijah comforted her by saying, “Don’t worry, Courtney. We are going to Cameron’s house right now to take a look. I don’t think she’s that unreliable…”

“Alexander never says things that he isn’t sure of.” Courtney was really in a state of panic now.

Half an hour later, the taxi arrived at Cameron’s apartment. Then, after knocking on the door for half a day, Cameron finally opened it, with her face still looking sleepy.

“What are you guys doing here?” Seeing Courtney surprised Cameron. “Why are you here, Courtney? Are you not afraid of bumping into your aunt?”

Not wanting to waste words answering her, Courtney asked in a rush, “Where’s Tina?”

Yawning, Cameron replied, “In her own bedroom, napping. Didn’t I tell you that just this afternoon?”

After hearing her words, Courtney rushed inside. Opening the door, she saw that the blanket had a little hump, which made her breath a sigh of relief.

“What is up with you?”

Not making sense of anything, Cameron slowly walked over and looked at Elijah and Courtney. “Didn’t you say you were going to meet Alexander for the negotiation this afternoon? How did it go?”

The mention of the negotiation made Courtney frown. Then, she proceeded to recount what happened that afternoon.

Right then, Cameron’s facial expression changed before she slammed the table and said, “Is he insane? He even wants Tina’s custody? On what grounds? You should have sued him for the the sexual assault plus blackmail he did back then. What a shameless man.”

“I will not hand over Tina’s custody to him. I will be bringing Tina back to America tomorrow.”

Since Melrose City was the territory of the Duncan Family, Courtney was afraid of staying in it for even one more day. After all, it had always been difficult for even outside powerful organizations to deal with local strongholds, not to mention them, who were practically nobodies.

“The girl is very obedient. After lunch, she went to sleep on her own, and she didn’t even make a scene about wanting to see you like the last two days. It feels like she’s all grown up now.”
