One Night Surprise Novel

Chapter 41 I’ve Never Forced Anyone

“Married?” Anna frowned and snorted. “When was she ever married? She still has her identification at home! She didn’t even graduate college when she left, and she’s only twenty-four this year.”

Britney tried to pry more information out of Anna as she hinted, “Did she fall in love with somebody? Why did she leave the country all of a sudden? Didn’t you say that she did not even finish college? Could she have followed her boyfriend overseas?”

Anna’s face took on a look of contempt when she spoke of Courtney’s past. “Her boyfriend at that time? You probably know him—he’s Isaac Graham, the Young Master of Graham Enterprise. He had gotten together with her best friend for ages, and they couldn’t wait to let the whole world know about it. She was the only one who had no clue about it—how brainless!”

“Is that so? Issac Graham?” Britney made some calculations—it seemed as though Anna was not aware that her sister had a child.

Six years ago, Courtney was still in Melrose City and had only left five years ago, so the child was probably born here. In that case, the father of the child was probably someone in Melrose City, and it wouldn’t have been Isaac. As she left the golf course in her MPV, Britney felt that something just wasn’t adding up.

“Jason, is there a way to find out someone’s hidden past from five or six years ago?”

Jason turned back from the passenger seat and pondered for a moment. “Yeah, just get a private investigator.”

“I want to look into someone.”

“Who?”

“The other Young Lady of the Hunter Family, Courtney Hunter. If I’m not mistaken, she only left the country five years ago after giving birth in Melrose City. I want to know who the father of the child is.”

Alexander’s attitude toward Courtney is simply too strange. Just because she saved Jordan once doesn’t mean that Alexander should treat her so differently. I don’t care if this makes me an overly suspicious person, but I will only be at ease if she doesn’t have anything to do with Alexander.

Meanwhile, Anna had just returned home. Susan, who was Anna’s mother, greeted the latter as soon as she came back. “You’re back, Anna! Why are you back so late? You didn’t make it back in time for dinner.”
