One Night Surprise Chapter 83
Chapter 83 You Should Come With Us
Courtney nearly could not believe her eyes—a little guy like Jordan should have been staying back in
their country, but why did he appear in front of her all of a sudden?
The waiter came over to check out the situation, gesturing and asking her about the little kid. She
carried him in her arms and exined to him, “This is my friend’s child, so he should be staying in this
hotel as well. I will send this child over to him. Don’t worry.”
Seeing that Jordan was close to Courtney, the waiter did not suspect anything and left unworriedly.
As soon as the waiter had left, she put Jordan down before squatting down and asked, “Jordan, why
are you here? Where’s your daddy?”
He stared at her while gesturing something.
Knowing that he was not able to speak, she changed the question. “Is your daddy here with you?”
Jordan nodded.
She frowned. “Are you staying in this hotel with your daddy?”
He nodded again.
“So why are you here alone?”
Upon hearing this, he pouted on the spot, a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
He seems upset… Courtney felt helpless as she did not understand what he was gesturing, so she
turned on her phone and gave Alexander a call.
“Hello, the person you have called cannot be reached at the moment. Please…”
There were nothing but clearly pronounced words which stated that her call was not answered by the
person at the other side of the phone, which made her frown. What’s with Alexander? Why did he leave
his kid here all by himself and is not answering calls?
When she was deep in her thoughts, she caught a glimpse of Jordan’s neck, which was red, from the
corner of her eyes. “Jordan, what happened to your neck?”
She tugged open his cor and discovered that not only his neck, but his chest was red as well. It was
obvious that he was sunburned. After asking him for a while, he took her phone and typed out the
whole incident. ‘Daddy took me out to y at the beach yesterday afternoon, so I got sunburned. It
hurts.’
Alexander actually arrived yesterday afternoon? She could not afford to care about this at the moment
as she felt extremely distressed for Jordan when she saw his sunburn. “Your daddy didn’t even apply
sunscreen on you.”
Jordan pouted, looking even more pitiful.
Feeling distressed for him, she took him upstairs to deal with his sunburn before she could think of how
to look for Alexander; otherwise, Jordan’s skin would definitely peel in a couple of days.
Just when she was applying medicine on Jordan’s sunburn, the doorbell rang.
“Jordan, don’t make any move first. I’m going to answer the door.”
When she saw Alexander’s never-changing poker face from the peephole, she immediately opened the
door and muttered in an upset tone, “Why are you here?”
“Jordan’s with you?” He sounded righteous.
“Shouldn’t you have your son by your side?”
“Is he not here?” he asked again.
Courtney was pissed off by his attitude. “Alexander, what kind of father are you? Since you have
brought Jordan out to y, can you pay more attention in taking care of him? Do you know that he has
sunburn?”
His expression slightly changed. “Let me have a look.”
“Of course you should take a look.” As she was speaking, she subconsciously gave way to him and
allowed him to enter her suite, overlooking the shred of slyness shing across his eyes the moment
he entered.
He held Jordan’s chubby little hand and carefully examined the sunburn on his body. “Let’s stay in
today,” he frowned as he adjured.
“Why can’t he go out?” she darted him a look and grumbled. “Don’t you know that there is this thing
called sunscreen in this world? Even if you don’t, you should know about summer hats and long sleeve
shirts. I have just asked Jordan—he said that you actually allowed him to wear nothing but a swimming
trunk when ying by the beach under the hot sun yesterday afternoon. Why didn’t you go and y
under the sun yesterday, then?”
Alexander looked at her and exined in a stern manner, “On one hand, I wasn’t interested in a low-
difficulty activity like building a sandcastle of The Great Wall; on the other hand, I felt that it was too
hot.”

“Haha! You thought that it was too hot, yet you let Jordan go under the sun?” Courtney was
speechless, thinking that Alexander was definitely the most careless father that she had ever met in her
life when it came to taking care of a child.
Seeing that Courtney kept reprimanding Alexander, Jordan carefully tugged her sleeve and showed her
the word that he had just written. ‘Hungry.’
It made here to her senses and frown. “Jordan is hungry, but as his father, you don’t know about it
as well. You are too busy working everyday—is work more important than your son?”
“I totally understand what you mean. I was ordering some food downstairs when… Jordan disappeared
in the blink of an eye.” His gaze was deep as theynded on her.
Hearing that, her throat tightened; a shocking expression appeared on her face as she realized what
she had done.
If Alexander had been downstairs, the waiter would have taken care of Jordan and sent him back to the
former in the end if she had not taken Jordan away. It was because of her action of taking him upstairs
that gave him the extra work of looking for Jordan.
Recalling her attitude earlier, she felt awkward and coughed before nervously exining, “Umm, I saw
that Jordan was sunburned, so I brought him upstairs to treat them. I didn’t know that you were
downstairs too. I’m sorry.”
“It’s fine.” His expression was as cold as usual, as if he was unfazed by her scolding. He then reached
out his hand at Jordan. “Our food is ready downstairs, Jordan. Let’s go down to eat something.”
Jordan hesitated for a while before taking Courtney’s sleeve while using his eyes to gesture at
Alexander.
Alexander nced at him and turned to her. “Jordan hopes that you can join us for a meal.”
Courtney was alone right now since Shay had brought Tina out, and she had no idea when they would
being back. Hence, she felt that she preferred eating with the little guy instead of doing that alone,
so she did not reject their invitation.
After having their meal, Jordan asked where Tina went.
“She went out to the sea with Shay to an uninhabited ind nearby.”
Hearing that, he was incredibly envious of Tina. He turned to Alexander with a look of eagerness on his
face.
Alexander took a sip of tea and calmly uttered, “You can’t swim, so even if you go, you will only be
making sandcastles by the beach, which is just the same wherever you are.”
“What’s the matter? Do you want to go as well, Jordan?” Courtney asked. When she saw that Jordan
nodded, she suggested to Alexander, “Take him there, then. Anyway, I heard that it is not far from here
—it’s only a ten-minute boat ride from the jetty.”
Alexander pondered for a moment. Lowering his head, he saw Jordan looking at him with eagerness in
his ck, beady eyes. He nodded after a moment of consideration. “Okay, let’s go after having our
meal.”
“That’s how you do it. Since you have brought him out here to have fun, you shouldn’t keep him in the
hotel room all the time.”
Courtney was satisfied with his attitude this time. Although he was quite careless in taking care of his
child, he was willing to humbly listen to the advice of others, which made him at least salvageable.
After lunch, Courtney fished out a bottle of sunscreen from her bag and handed it to Alexander. “Take
this with you. Apply it on Jordan every hour so that he doesn’t get sunburned again.”
Alexander did not ept it and sternly replied, “What Jordan meant was for you toe with us.”
