One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 452

Chapter 452 You Can Leave Now, Mister

Ever since news of Courtney and Alexander’s relationship came out at the hospital, the former had been experiencing quite a bit of teasing.

Fortunately, partly because no one had that much free time on their hands and partly because Courtney got along well enough with her knowledgeable coworkers, they stuck only to teasing and didn’t try to cause her any trouble.

On this day, upon returning home after finishing up an evening shift, Courtney noticed an unexpected figure leaning against a car at the entrance of her apartment building.

“What are you doing here?” Glancing down at her wristwatch, she noted that it was already past midnight. “It’s in the middle of the night. What are you doing here?”

Accordingly, Alexander stood up straight. “Why haven’t you come to see me these last two days?”

“You’re healed,” Courtney pointed out, matter-of-fact. “The final dressing change was a couple of days ago. The wound has already begun to scab, so it doesn’t require treatment any longer and you can wait for it to naturally fall off.”

“So, now that my wound is healed, you have no intentions of seeing me any longer?”

“Not necessarily. I’m not cursing you or anything, but I think we all fall ill every once in a while. We might see each other again in the future. Still, I hope that’s not the case, since it’s more important for you to be safe and healthy.” With a second glance at him, she added, “It’s getting late and I’m going home. Tina is waiting for me. You should go home as well.”

Unfortunately, before she could take more than a few steps, he asked anxiously behind her, “My wound might be healed, Courtney, but what about my heart?” As she paused in her tracks, he stepped right up behind her and continued, “Aren’t you intending to address the fact that you sent Kelly away and ruined the only beautiful thing I’ve had in my life for the past five years? Now I’ll have to be alone for the rest of my life.”

 

When Courtney heard that, she turned back in astonishment.

It seems he cares quite a bit about Kelly, after all.

Somewhat unhappily, she told him, “I never intended to send her away. She was the one who came to the hospital to find me out of the blue and spout a bunch of nonsense. Besides, you could’ve urged her to stay.”
