One Night Surprise

Chapter 513

Chapter 513 I’ve Not Made Up My Mind

After Courtney’s call with Elijah, she immediately made a beeline to the bar. She had made several calls to Angie on her way there, but it was to no avail, making her anxious. Her car sped down the road in the middle of the night.

She had some lingering fears about being drunk during her college years.

When she arrived at room six of Giza Taphouse, she did not see any traces of Angie. In the room, several couples were hugging as they played the game of Truth or Dare. Samuel was at the corner, staring at his phone from time to time and seeming a little absent-minded.

When he saw Courtney push through the door, he took the initiative to get up and approach her. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“Angie has gone back to her dormitory.”

Courtney looked at Samuel vigilantly as she scanned him from head to toe and said in disbelief, “Wasn’t she too drunk to even answer her phone? How did she go back?”

Her reaction was obviously beyond his expectations.

“The vice president and former student union president sent her back. They just sent me a message saying they’ve reached the dormitory.”

As he said that, he even showed the chat to her.

“Oh, I see. Thank you.”

However, she was still worried. She obviously had to make another trip to Angie’s dormitory. She was hesitant about leaving straight away and decided to ask, “Which of the two people that sent Angie back

are you more familiar with? Can you give me their contact number?”

“Yes, of course.”

Samuel quickly looked through his phone and gave Casey’s number to Courtney. Then, as he watched Courtney leave the bar, he hesitated for a long time before he chased after her.

“You don’t seem to feel at ease about Angie.”

Courtney nodded as she continued to walk, with no intention of slowing down.

“I’ll follow you back to the school. I need to make sure that she’s back in her dormitory before I can feel rest assured. After all, I was the one who dragged her out today,” he said as he caught up with her.

Seeing that he did not have any bad intentions, Courtney did not contemplate any longer whether she should bring him or not. Instead, she remained quiet as they strode down the road.

As they walked from the bar to the car park, a few youngsters squatted in the street’s dark corner. Initially, Courtney did not bother much about them. But when she vaguely heard their topic of discussion, she perked up her ears as she felt shivers down her spine.

“Is there something good again today?”

“Yeah, I heard that she has a good body and has been abroad as well.”

“How can you not share something so good with your brothers?”

“Of course not. You’ll get your share with her. I’ve made arrangements with the higher-ups, who said to call at 1:30 AM to confirm the location. There are still ten minutes left. So, be patient, boys!”

“What’s wrong?”

Samuel seemed to not care about the discussion nearby, or maybe it was that he did not hear it at all. He had only noticed that Courtney had stopped walking, and after a long time, he followed her gaze and saw those young men at the corner.

“Is there something wrong?”

“Keep quiet and just follow my lead.”

She was already walking toward the group of men as she said this. She seemed to be in a hurry and had put up an anxious front.

“You don’t have to call anymore. I’ve just dropped the girl at the Sunhill Hotel in room 3208.”

Then, she took a room card out of her bag.

The group leader studied Courtney and had no intention of taking the room card from her.

“Who are you? What room are you talking about? I don’t understand what you are trying to say here.”

When Courtney heard this, she crossed her arms and sneered, “Yo, who would’ve thought you lot are so defensive. How can you take on such a job if you’re so timid? Didn’t you just say you wanted to give me a call?”

With that, she said a string of numbers.

The man looked down at his phone, and the vigilance in his eyes subsided. But at this point, Courtney was clearly impatient already.

“Why aren’t you taking it? You don’t look like a douchebag that will go back on his words to me. I’m not forcing you to do anything here. If you can’t do it, don’t waste my time. I’ll just get myself someone else.”

As she said that, she put the room card back into her bag and turned around to complain to Samuel, who was standing beside her.

“How can you look for these types of people? I’ll give you half an hour to find me a more reliable one.”

Although Samuel was in a daze, he nodded cooperatively and even took out his phone to pretend to make a call. Unfortunately, the young man in front of the group immediately stopped him when he saw this.

“Hey, stop. We’ve already agreed on things. So, why are you changing your mind? I didn’t even say no.”

“Then hurry up and go. Don’t wait until she’s awake and ruin my plan.”

With impatience clearly displayed on her face, Courtney shoved the room card into the man’s chest and turned around to leave with a fiery look.

Samuel followed suit behind her. When the two finally sat in the car, he was still baffled about what had happened. However, he had a deep frown on his face as he had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

“What were those people doing just now, and why does it have anything to do with you?”

However, Courtney did not answer and shot him a stern look before calling Alexander’s number.

“I just gave the room card Eric took from the bag when he reported to you two days ago. A young man with blonde hair and a plaid shirt will show up in room 3208 in a while. Call the cops to arrest him. I’ll explain the rest to you when I come back.”

On the other end, Eric calmly agreed without any question. Once they hung up the phone, he immediately arranged everything accordingly.

In the dark room, a sneer appeared on his thin lips; that woman must be surprising him again.

Once Courtney had hung up the phone with Eric, she immediately dialed the number she had memorized just a while ago. Then, she glanced at the worried-looking Samuel on the passenger seat and put the call on loudspeaker.

The phone rang for a long time, and when it was finally picked up, the voice from the other end of the phone sounded a little rushed.

“It’s already half-past one. Have you dropped her off? Which hotel are you at? My buddies are getting a bit anxious.”

“Hey, what’s wrong with you?”

Casey did not expect a woman to call; hence she was taken aback for a while.

“I thought we have a mutual understanding of our transactional relationship. You give us the money, and we’ll settle it for you. Is there something wrong?”

Courtney sounded very authoritative. After all, she had experienced so much more than these young girls who hadn’t graduated from college. At this point, Casey was too stunned to speak.

There was a long pause as she hesitated.

“I-I’ve not made up my mind yet.”

“Make up your mind on what?”

“At the end of the day, the damage that will be done to her is unforeseeable. So, I don’t think we should go this far. How about we just forget it?”

Courtney’s eyes darkened when she heard this.

“Lady, do you think this is a joke? Why did you come looking for us if you haven’t thought it through? My boys have been waiting. They’ve even taken their pants off. And now you’re saying you want to call it off? Why don’t you take her place if the girl can’t make it?”

Her words were highly mean and vulgar, sounding like a street scoundrel. Samuel’s face turned pale when he heard this; this indifferent, classy woman didn’t seem like someone who could say such a thing.

Courtney wanted to let the person on the other end of the phone know that this world was much more vicious than she imagined, be it just words or actions.

After Casey heard this, all color drained from her face as she was utterly stunned with fear. She hesitated for a moment, and her attitude completely changed.

“That’s not what I meant. I’ll still pay you, but you don’t have to do anything.”

“Alright then. Next time, think before you get yourself involved in things like this. Not everyone is as easy to negotiate with as we are. If you’re not ready to go to jail for this, don’t do it.”

Courtney’s words served as a strong warning, and she immediately hung up the phone in a hurry when she heard the term ‘jail.’
