Chapter 85 I Don’t Want to Go to That House

• “I don’t want to go there. I don’t want to go to that house…” Incoherent words that sounded like she was sleep talking came from his embrace, causing his stern expression to reveal a shred of tenderness amongst the storm.
• Alexander’s father passed away when he was 13 years old. Even though his mother wasn’t around, he still had his grandfather to take care of him and raise him. His grandfather was currently still alive and kicking, and he loved to act against him.
• But this was not the case for Courtney—she had lost her mother ever since she was born, and though her father was still around, he had formed a new family with someone else. She had lived with her grandfather for a few years before the latter passed away. After that, she was taken back to the Hunter Mansion by her father, which had obviously put her in an awkward situation—she should have been the original family member but was treated as a guest in the family instead.
