One Night Surprise Chapter 60
Chapter 60 Our Fates Really Are Intertwined
Courtney received a warm wee from Tina when she returned home.
“You’re home atst, Mommy! Were you happyst night?”
Courtney knew that Tina couldn’t possibly be aware of the stuff between men and women at such a
young age, but she couldn’t help giving thetter a noogie. “Why should I be happy? Who told you to
egg Jordan’s dad on to look for me at the engagement party?”
Rubbing her head in pain, Tina pouted her lips and argued, “It wasn’t me who proposed that; Jordan
and Godmother were the ones responsible. Godmother even said that Mr. Alexander would be a hero
saving a damsel in distress by doing so!”
“Are you putting the me on whoever is absent?” Courtney shot her a nce while pouring herself
some water to drink by the table. She asked casually, “What else did your Godmother say?”
“Godmother said that the story of a hero saving a damsel in distress always ends with the heroine
pledging to marry the hero out of gratitude.”
“Pfft!” Courtney spat a mouthful of water all over the table. After coughing a few times, she went to p
the door to the main bedroom in exasperation. “Come out, Cameron! How could you teach her these
things instead of the good stuff?”
It was the weekend, which Cameran usually spent resting at home and sleeping soundly to her heart’s
content. However, nobody answered the door even after Courtney knocked on it for a long time. When
Courtney opened the door, she found the room as messy as a doghouse, but Cameron was nowhere to
be seen.
“My Godmother left this morning on a business trip.” Tina trotted up to her. “She also said that you are
free to invite Mr. Alexander over while she’s away—she doesn’t mind it at all.”
“Who wants to invite him?” Looking guilty, Courtney raised her voice and covered her blushing face.
“All right, that’s enough. I’m dog-tired, so I want to sleep. Don’t make trouble for me here; go y on
your own somewhere else.”
Tina was chased back into her room, but she covered her mouth and tittered while peeping through the
door crack.
It seems that Godmother’s n of having a hero save a damsel in distress works wonders! As
expected, I should let Godmother take action since she can do the job of two!
Courtney kept tossing and turning in bed that afternoon, but she couldn’t fall asleep due to her sore
waist and aching back. When she turned over, she recalled what had happenedst night. Blushing
with embarrassment, she covered herself under the nket, only to push back the nket and pant
heavily a whileter because she couldn’t breathe. After being restless for some time, she went into a
sulk.
If Cameron did not pressure me into attending the engagement party, such a thing wouldn’t have
happened. This incident wouldn’t be possible if she didn’t speak out of turn by persuading Alexander to
appear at the banquet.
In conclusion, thisdy is the culprit!
Thinking about this, Courtney’s mind suddenly cleared a little. She increasingly felt that Cameron was
likely to be the mastermind behind the incident!
Meanwhile, Cameron was bored stiff while waiting for her dyed flight in the airport lounge when she
received a voice message on her cell phone’s Messenger. When she saw the sender ID of the voice
message, her fidgety expression instantly cleared. After unlocking her cell phone by slowly swiping her
finger across the screen, she pleasantly listened to Courtney’s usation.
“Confess to me—did you n in advance to urge me to attend the wedding and notify Alexander about
it?”
Pressing the recording button on her cell phone, Cameron moved closer to the microphone. She
argued, “How could that be possible? Did something happenst night, though? Why didn’t youe
back all night yesterday?”
“Nothing happened.”
“You sound so flustered and exasperated that I don’t believe nothing has happened.”
Her message was met with silence. For a long time, there was no answer from the other end of the
conversation.
However, Cameron could imagine Courtney’s blushing face in front of the screen. What a shame that I
can’t see her blushing face with my own eyes.
Just then, the airport’s broadcasting system announced that her flight had arrived. Cameron picked up
her handbag leisurely and boarded the ne before finding her seat. After seating herself, she lowered
her voice and spoke into her cell phone. “I’m on the ne, so I won’t discuss the details with you.
Share your passionate night yesterday with me when Ie backter!”
With that, she switched off her cell phone.
Just then, she heard a man’s deep voice speaking above her head against the background of the
safety warning broadcast. “Babe, may I ask if I can move your stuff in the overheadpartment to the
side a little bit?”
Cameron didn’t even raise her head. “It’s not mine, so move it as you please.”
“Thank you,” replied the man politely. As he was moving the bags around, he suddenly stopped.
Cameron, who found the voice familiar to her, put down the tablet in her hand and looked up.
Their eyes met in an instant.
“It’s you!”
Cameron and Gale’s voices ovepped.

After confirming that the seat number on his ne ticket was correct, Gale seated himself next to
Cameron and extended his hand to her politely. “What a coincidence! We meet again, Miss Miller.”
Cameron rolled her eyes before raising her hand to beckon the flight attendant toe over.
“Do you need any help, miss?”
“I’d like to switch seats.”
Gale’s expression changed as his hand stretched out awkwardly in midair.
Sensing the subtle atmosphere between them, the flight attendant gave an awkward smile. “Miss Miller,
all the seats of this flight are filled, so there’s no way of switching seats.”
Cameron’s expression changed at once. She shot a disdainful look at Gale next to her and asked, “Are
the economy ss seats filled as well? I can switch to an economy ss seat as long as I’m not seated
next to him. I have no problem sitting on a jump seat with you guys.”
“What do you mean by that?” Gale stared at her with a frown. He said in displeasure, “Why are you
making a fuss—even I haven’t made a request to switch seats!”
Cameron’s expression was very cold. “I simply can’t stand the sight of some ill-mannered person who
takes his liberties with women!”
“I’m sorry, but there really aren’t any empty seats anymore.” The flight attendant looked troubled.
Gale’s face fell as well. He answered back sarcastically, “Have you ever found anyone easy on the
eyes? In my opinion, you’re just hostile to society. The flight will take off very soon, yet you’ve made
things difficult for the flight attendant here and used me ofcking manners. I don’t think you have
good manners either.”
“You!” Cameron knitted her brows. After giving the flight attendant an understanding look to motion her
to leave first, she red at Gale and continued, “I’m not in the mood to talk nonsense with you. I’m
warning you—this flight will take only four hours, so don’t speak to me. We shall pretend that we have
never met.”
“I…”
Surprisingly, Gale didn’t get angry after being dissed so many times. Instead, he started to get curious.
Just what the hell is it about me that thisdy can’t stand the sight of? Why does she behave like a
grouch every time we meet?
Then, his eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the staff ID card on Cameron’s table from the corner of his
eye.
The words ‘Twilight LLC’s cultural media exchange program’ were printed on it very clearly. Is she
going to attend Twilight’s cultural media exchange program as well? If that’s the case, our fates are
really intertwined.
Gale’s mouth curved into a meaningful smile.
The next day was a Monday.
Setting aside all the ‘idents’ that happened over the weekend, Courtney immediately began the
preparations to decorate the event hall for Sunhill Enterprise’s 100th-anniversary celebration. She
spent the entire day overseeing the partitioning of different areas in the lobby.
“The posters on the board aren’t good; make them prettier. We can’t let others think that there’s some
sort of construction going on here, and try not to inconvenience the hotel’s guests as much as possible.
Don’t pile things up right here—put everything in the storeroom and take them out only when needed.
It’s okay to make a few more trips.”
While she was busy in the afternoon, she heard the receptionist calling her from the front desk nearby.
“Miss Hunter, a gentleman here wants to see you.”
Upon hearing this, Courtney—who was looking up while directing the workers to install the new
chandelier—looked back to see a familiar figure standing at the front desk. Surprisingly, the stooping
figure had be much older than she remembered since theyst met many years ago.
