    One Night Surprise Chapter 203


    Chapter 203 It Seems You Know Of Me


    Bill’s voice sounded like a pool of icy water—it was bitterly cold. “Did you say that you are Alexander


    Duncan, the president of Sunhill Enterprise?”


    Courtney had just dragged Alexander out the door. When they heard that question, they turned around


    again. Then, Alexander confirmed his identity unabashedly. “It seems like you know me.”


    “It’s more than that!” There was a livid, teeth-gnashing expression painted across Bill’s tanned face.


    Immediately after, Courtney saw white snowkes rushing toward her face. They mmed against both


    her and Alexander’s bodies. At the same time, a ck figure rushed at Alexander from the front. It was


    apanied by Bill’s roar. “You brought this on yourself!”


    “Watch out!” Courtney’s head was buzzing in shock. She only registered a pair of hands pushing her


    away. mming against the white, wooden door with a loud ‘Bang!’, she cried out from the searing


    pain in her back. By the time she came back to her senses, the two men were already entangled in a


    brawl.


    Alexander had the upper hand due to his skills. However, Bill was 1.8 meters tall. Moreover, his


    muscles were well-built from living by the beach. He hardly felt any pain from where Alexander hit him,


    but every hit hended on Alexander was heavy.


    Thus, Alexander was soon ced in a disadvantageous position. Grabbing him by the cor, Bill


    pressed him down against the ground. He grunted in pain as he took a punch from Bill. The corners of


    his mouth were stained with blood.


    “Stop fighting!” Courtney finally recovered from her shock and screamed anxiously.


    Unfortunately, the two men wouldn’t listen to reason. Or rather, Bill refused to stop. Alexander simply


    fought out of self-defense, refusing to be a sitting duck waiting to be hit. Following their fight, the yard


    quickly turned into a mess. The dyed cloth and salted fish hanging from the bamboo frames fell to the


    ground noisily and rolled about in the dirt.


    Holding her phone, she stomped her foot in anxiety. “Stop fighting! If you continue, I’m going to call the


    police!”


    Caught up in the mes of their anger, the men couldn’t care less about what she was saying. Bill was


    fighting like he was carrying out a suicide attack. He fought as if he had a deep hatred for Alexander,


    punching without stopping.


    Courtney couldn’t stand it anymore and hurriedly stepped between them to pull them apart. Then, a


    loud ‘Crash!’ came from the side, followed by a woman’s scream.


    Initially, Alexander had already run out of strength. He was being pressed down on the ground and


    beaten to a pulp. However, his pupils contracted abruptly when he heard that scream. He didn’t know


    where he got his strength as he suddenly shoved Bill aside and staggered toward Courtney. “Courtney


    —”


    The big iron pot in the yard that had been holding a simple distition device had fallen over at some


    point, and Courtneyy next to the pot. There was a dark brown spot asrge as a bowl that was still


    emitting white steam on her calf—she had been scalded badly. The sight distressed Alexander so


    badly that cold sweat dripped down his back, and he immediately picked her up and ran out of the yard.


    Bill was dumbfounded too, his face turning pale as he took in the sight in front of him. He was stuck in a


    daze for a long time before he stood up, chased after Alexander, and stutteringly said, “I-I have an


    electric tricycle! I’ll send you to the clinic in town.”


    No matter how great Alexander’s resentment was, he could only endure it as he got on the tricycle. He


    felt extremely heartbroken as he held the unconscious Courtney in his arms throughout the journey.


    Ever since getting into a rtionship with me, this woman is always in some form of trouble at any one


    time. She doesn’t even have time to rest.


    Inside the clinic at Eldham Town, Courtney was rushed into the operating room to treat her wound. The


    scalded area was notrge, but the wound was deep. During the treatment, heartrending screams rang


    out from the operation room as she woke up from the pain and fainted again due to the pain.


    “Didn’t you give her any anesthetics? Why is she in so much pain?!” In the middle of treating her


    wound, the doctor came out. Then, Alexander grabbed the doctor by the cor with a furious


    expression.


    The doctor was frightened by his hostility and cowered in fear. “This is a small town. We don’t have an


    anesthesiologist here, so we can’t administer any anesthetics. Besides, we are just a small health


    clinic. If you have so many requests, you need to go to the hospital in the city.”


    “The city is 50 or 60 km away from here! If I had the time, do you think I’d still be here?!” Alexander


    roared. His voice was hoarse, and his eyes became bloodshot. Along the way, Courtney had curled up


    in his arms while trembling. Even though she had lost consciousness, she gritted her teeth and refused


    to make any sound. The way she looked as she silently endured the pain greatly distressed him. This


    d*mn ce!


    “Don’t me the doctor. This is a clinic. There’s really no other way.” Bill frowned and grabbed


    Alexander’s arm. “If you grab the doctor in this manner, there won’t be anybody to treat Miss Hunter’s


    wound.”


    Alexander was filled with animosity. Even so, he released his grip and punched Bill in the face while


    cursing viciously.


    Bill staggered backward several steps and slumped down in a corner. Lifting his head, he wiped away


    the blood at the corners of his mouth. “I was at fault for causing harm to an innocent bystander. But,


    you don’t have the right to hit me. If it wasn’t for you, all of this would never have happened.”


    “What did you say?” Alexander’s expression was icy. “Speak clearly!”


    “Why? Can’t you even remember what you did?” Bill looked contemptuous. The corner of his eyes


    curved upward in a cold arc. “Wasn’t Sunjoy Fashion a clothing brand under Sunhill? Did you think you


    can pretend that what happened five years ago never took ce if you changed the name of the


    company and switched out all the employees?! Sunhill is the most horriblepany I’ve ever seen;


    even children are not spared from your evil deeds!”


    Sunjoy Fashion? Alexander’s furrowed eyebrows were dyed with a faint trace of doubt.


    However, Bill had no intention of talking to Alexander. Using the wall as support, he slowly stood up.


    His gaze was proud and lonely as he grimly said, “I don’t regret beating you up. You can go ahead and


    report this to the police; send me to jail for eight to ten years. But, I wish to wait until Miss Hunter wakes


    up before you do that. I need to apologize to her. Harming her was not my intention.”


    I have no idea what he is talking about, but his tone indicates that thispany named ‘Sunjoy’ is


    rted to me. While Alexander was deep in thought, a cell phone rang and interrupted his thoughts. He


    looked at the caller ID then nced at Bill. After that, he walked out of the clinic and answered the call.


    It was a call from Josh.


    ? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    “What is it?”


    “President Duncan, all the seafood has been delivered to Melrose City. Why aren’t you at the


    company?”


    “I was busy with something. I’m still at Lisboa right now.”


    “Then, about the project development meeting tonight…”


    “Proceed as usual but change it to a video conference.”


    “Alright, I will inform them.”


    Before hanging up, Alexander asked, “Was there a clothingpany by the name of ‘Sunjoy’ under


    Sunhill Enterprise five years ago?”


    “Sunjoy?” Josh seemed to hesitate slightly on the other side of the phone. “Yes, there was. But, I only


    heard of it four years ago. Sunjoy’s reputation as a clothing brand was extremely negative by then. It no


    longer held any value, so I applied to deregister it. Afterward, I also dismissed all the original


    employees at thepany.”


    “Why don’t I have any recollection of that?” Alexander frowned.
