One Night Surprise Chapter 512


    Chapter 512 Not Quite Simr


    The mobile phone screen went dark and the surroundings immediately became dark again. Angie’s


    heart was inexplicably calm as she allowed the darkness to swallow her.


    After thinking about it, she tapped on the phone screen and saw that the clock on the screen read


    9.15AM. The corners of her mouth curled up into a self-deprecating smile. Due to the difference in time


    zones, it was time for Elijah to get up to take a shower before breakfast.


    Yet, they still had breakfast together.


    The screen that had just darkened suddenly lit up again. She stared at the message that was sent for


    the third time today on this phone before tapping on her keyboard to reply.


    ‘Where is it?’


    …


    At a restaurant somewhere in Manhattan, Lilian watched the little boy feeding the pigeons through the


    square of the window with a slight smile on her face.


    When Elijah came out of the washroom, she had already quietly deleted the call records on his phone.


    The phone was ced in its original position and everything seemed to be in ce.


    He raised his wrist to look at the time as he sat down again.


    “I have a meeting to chair in a while. Is there a reason for you to look for me?”


    When Lilian noticed the impatient look in his eyes, she couldn’t help the bitter feeling welling within her.


    Before she could say anything, the phone on the table rang again.


    This made everyone’s heart skip a beat.


    Elijah frowned. He overlooked Lilian, sitting on the opposite side, looking much more rxed after


    catching a glimpse of the caller ID on the phone screen.


    “Courtney.”


    “Did Angie call you?”


    “No.”


    On the other end of the phone, Courtney was leaning on the balcony on the second floor with the wind


    blowing across her face. The strong wind blew her voice away, making it hard to understand her. When


    she heard Elijah’s response, the worry in her eyes deepened.


    “Angie’s uncle is critically ill. I apanied her from the hospital today, so I thought she would call you


    because she wasn’t feeling too good.”


    Elijah couldn’t help but frown when he heard this. “I see. I’ll give her a call.”


    He hung up the phone as soon as he finished talking, seemingly in a hurry. Then, without waiting for


    Lilian to speak, he rose to his feet, dialed a number, and walked out of the restaurant.


    “We’ll talk on the phone if there’s anything you want to say.”


    He had only left this sentence for her before she watched him stride away.


    Sheughed at herself mockingly before continuing to eat breakfast in front of her.


    None of Elijah’s calls to Angie got through from 9:30AM to 12:30PM. Finally, after many attempts, he


    called his assistant to book him a flight before trying for thest time.


    “Hello?”


    This time, the call was finally connected, but the voice from the other end of the phone didn’t belong to


    Angie.


    Samuel stared at the name ‘Mr. Elijah’ that was lit up on the phone’s screen and patted Angie on the


    back. However, she just curled her body before continuing to sleep in a morefortable position.


    After a moment of hesitation, he decided to answer the call.


    “Where’s Angie?”


    Besides Samuel’s voice, the background was filled with chaotic noises and music. Elijah didn’t have to


    think to know where they were, and he couldn’t help but let his anger seep into his tone.


    As Samuel thought that this Mr. Elijah was Angie’s uncle, so he responded respectfully. “Hi, Mr. Elijah.


    I’m Angie’s ssmate. We are having our alumni reunion dinner tonight and Angie drank a little too


    much. I’ll be responsible for sending her back to her dormitoryter, don’t worry.”


    Drank too much?


    Elijah raised his eyebrow as indecent pictures began to sh across his mind.


    He had witnessed Angie getting drunk twice—once at his birthday party and the other time at a


    restaurant with that kid. After these two times, he had not been at ease with her.


    His face turned dark and scary when he thought of this. Don’t worry? How could he not worry? “What’s


    the address? I’ll send someone to pick her up.”


    Although Samuel hesitated for a moment, he still ended up sharing the address with Elijah. “We are in


    room six at Giza Taphouse on Hecr Lane.”


    “Take care of her,” Elijah urged before hanging up the phone with a sullen face.


    Samuel stared at the phone in a daze as Angie began to move around uneasily again. Her clean and


    gentle face could be seen under her disheveled hair as she was fast asleep on the sofa’s edge.


    He couldn’t help but smile when he saw this and a hint of desire shed across his face.


    Within the small confined space, the beautifully made-up Casey watched everything silently with a hint


    of resentment in her eyes. A girl in a pink id skirt next to her was looking in the same direction as


    she was and whispered something in Casey’s ears.


    Then, the resentment in Casey’s eyes turned into shock followed by hesitation. She watched as


    Samuel put the coat that he took off over Angie’s body, and the hesitancy in Casey’s eyes was


    immediately withdrawn.


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Angie did not know how long she had slept. When she woke up, she felt a splitting headache as she


    struggled to get up and staggered toward the door. Samuel saw this and immediately followed her.


    “Angie, slow down.”


    Angie leaned against the wall and murmured, “I want to go home.”


    As she closed her eyes and held the wall, she identally bumped her head against the stone pir


    used as decoration. Her already dizzy head became even more muddled and she fell backward.


    This frightened Samuel, so he jumped forward to catch her and almost missed her by an inch.


    Ultimately, he managed to grab her falling shoulder as his whole face turned red.


    Then, Angie opened her eyes and used all her strength to stand up again. This time, the handsome


    young man behind her caught her attention. She couldn’t help but stretch out with her hands to rub his


    face and study it.


    “It’s not quite simr.”


    Samuel’s face was squashed at this point.


    “Simr to what?”


    “My dad, oh no, my adoptive father.”


    “Huh?”


    The first time Angie saw Samuel, she felt like she was looking at Elijah’s shadow. Of course, for the


    most part, Samuel wasn’t as good as Elijah. Samuel wasn’t as calm, nor was he as strong as him.


    However, when she saw Samuel with that half-smile on his face for the first time, she felt something stir


    in her heart.


    “I feel a little dizzy—”


    Before he could ask more questions, the sight of Angie close to vomiting at any time frightened him and


    he quickly helped her to the bathroom.


    Casey’s voice came from behind just as they took two steps forward.


    “Samuel, what are you doing here?”


    June stepped forward without waiting for his answer and took the giddy Angie from him. “Isn’t she


    Angie, the beauty queen from your debate team? It seems like she’s going to puke by the way she


    drank. Leave her to me.”


    After saying that, she called out to Casey, “Casey, let’s bring her to the bathroom together. If she vomits


    here, they will cause a scene. It’s inconvenient for Samuel to help her alone. You can go in first.


    Everyone’s waiting for you.”


    Because of such a turbulent arrangement, Samuel didn’t think anything was wrong. When he realized


    that it was inconvenient for him to help her, he allowed the two girls to help her in and headed back.


    After waiting for a while, he realized the three hadn’t returned. Then, just as he was about to go and


    check on the situation, he received a message alert on his phone.


    “Angie isn’t feeling too good. So, we’ll send her back to the dormitory first.”
