One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 438 You Are Not the Reason for My Return

“Do you know Josh?”

Eric was utterly confused.

Now that Courtney saw him stupefied, she suddenly felt a surge of anger within her. “Is that even important now? Do you want to call him to verify this?”

He was about to say something when Alexander shot him a look and interrupted in a low voice, “Stop the nonsense and bring the trash bin here.”

Eric was stunned for yet another moment; it was only when he saw Alexander’s terribly wounded arm that he returned to his senses. Then, he quickly brought the trash bin over.

The moment that the hydrogen peroxide was poured onto the wound, white bubbles emerged from the flesh as the remaining fluid dripped into the trash bin.

It looked extraordinarily painful, yet Alexander didn’t even blink once and maintained his stare at Courtney, who was focused entirely on disinfecting the wounds for him.

Her eyebrows were knotted into a constant frown as she made no attempt to hide her displeasure and annoyance.

When Eric saw this scene, he felt that his scope had widened and that it was a once in a lifetime opportunity to watch this rare sight.

“You have to change this every day.” After Courtney tied the bandage, she directly instructed Eric without even looking at Alexander. “When Josh worked as Alexander’s assistant, he was also the part-time nanny. Since you can’t do that, at least take care of his health. If you want Alexander to have a longer lifespan, take him to the hospital to change the bandage and make sure that he eats at regular hours.”

After observing the situation for a while, Eric knew what was going on and nodded profusely.

Then, he followed Courtney into the kitchen and took advantage of the loud water noise when she opened the tap. “What if President Duncan doesn’t listen to me?” he asked softly.

“You should ask Josh about that.”

“You really know him?” This had piqued Eric’s interest. “What is your relationship with President Duncan? Why haven’t I heard him mention you?”

“He has never mentioned me?” Courtney stopped washing her hands and raised her head to look at Eric.
