Chapter 15 Falling into the Water
When Alexander arrived, he happened to see Florence jumping into the sea.
At that moment, his mind seemed to have innumerable explosive bags which were ignited and exploded when he saw Florence falling into the sea.
Alexander jumped into the sea without hesitation.
Easton and William who arrived after him were deeply shocked.
William murmured, "Oh my god! Boss is completely in love with her."
"Boss." Easton shouted, glanced at the turbulent water, and was about to jump.
William grabbed him and said, "What are you doing? Boss is trying to save his girl himself. Don't mess up."
He glanced at the tall and fat men who were trying to run away, and smiled coldly, "That's what you should do."
Easton's face became cold, and he picked up two stones from the ground, threw the stones out and hit them in the legs. They knelt down immediately.
In the water. Alexander had found where Florence was and pulled her into his arms.
She was in a coma. Alexander kissed her immediately so as to help her breathe, and brought her out of the water.
Easton found Alexander was out of the water with Florence in his arms, and immediately went over and said, "Boss."
"Go to the hospital." Alexander glanced at Florence who was in a coma, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
...
In a VIP ward of a hospital...
All the wards on this floor were reserved by Alexander.
Florence had a fever but there was no life-threatening injury. She was just temporarily unconscious.
What doctor said made Alexander's face softened a bit. He stood by Florence's bed with his eyes filled with tenderness.
William walked in and said, "Boss, Easton has already interrogated those two men who kidnapped Ms. Scott, but the answer is a complete surprise."
Alexander's eyes turned gloomy and he asked, "Who is behind this?"
"It's not those of the Logan family, but Camden Tucker from the Tucker family." William was also surprised by this result.
And then he added, "Besides, I also found an unexpected piece of news. Allison turned out to be Camden's lover. The kidnap of Ms. Scott must have something to do with Allison. With Camden's support, it's no wonder that Allison is so arrogant."
Alexander was also surprised, his eyebrows furrowed coldly and he said, "No matter who it is, those who dares to hurt her is asking to die."
"Boss, neither side would gain in the fight." William persuaded him and said, "With the power of the Logan family, it is indeed possible to fight against the Tucker family, but we will also suffer a great
loss. If we make a big thing out of it, it will put Ms. Scott into a more dangerous situation." Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
The Tucker family, with a hundred years of history, was one of the four major families in Croycor. So it was not easy to attack them.
However, it was not impossible.
But the Logan family would also suffer great losses.
Alexander spread the rumors that he couldn't survive longer in order that he could remove those black sheep from the Logan family.
The appearance of Florence was an accident. If Alexander changed his plan again for Florence's sake, with internal and external troubles, the consequences would be very troublesome.
Alexander pondered for a moment. He held Florence's hand, and a cold expression crossed his deep eyes and then he said, "Cut off one of Charlie's leg."
Charlie Tucker was the youngest son of Camden and he liked him the most.
"Boss, if you really do so, then you will start a feud with the Tucker family."
Alexander glanced at William coldly and said, "It is the Tucker family who starts a feud with me. One leg will be just the interest."
William knew that this was Alexander's final concession, otherwise, by Alexander's character, he would really kill him.
Florence, who was in a coma, didn't know that Alexander was so angry because of her and he would revenge for her.
One leg was just a little interest. How could it make up for Florence's injury that she almost drowned?
In just three hours, the Tucker Group lost 10 billion in market value inexplicably.
In the Scott family...
Allison was waiting for news with her mask on, and when she heard the phone ringing, she answered the phone cheerfully and said, "Camden, is it done? Florence, that b*tch is dead, right?"
"Who is backing up Florence? None of the people I sent came back. I asked someone to kidnap Florence, but then Charlie was cut off a leg. And even my company has been under attack on multiple fronts and lost 10 billion."
Camden was furious on the other side of the phone.
Allison grinned stiffly and was stunned. And then she replied, "Camden, how could that be? How can someone back up Florence? Did Charlie offend anyone? If someone really supports Florence, how could she be driven out of the family by me?"
Camden questioned her, "You said that Alexander went to the Scott family today. What for?"
"I don't know, Alexander went to the study to talk with Lincoln." Allison said hurriedly, "But it's definitely not the Logan family who supports Florence. Florence escaped the marriage, and it is such a luck that Alexander did not get even with her."
Camden was silent for a while. He had thought that it was the Logan family, but he also knew that the person in charge of the Logan family wouldn't survive for very long, and he barely went out and showed up before others. He also broke off the engagement with the Scott family.
Florence was just nobody and she wasn't powerful enough to make the Logan family and the Tucker family become enemies.
Therefore, Camden called Allison to ask her if there was anyone backing up Florence.
"You'd better not make any troubles recently. Don't provoke Florence. I will see who is helping her."
"Fine." Allison dared not to say anything and asked, "Camden, is Charlie alright? Which hospital is he in? I am going to see him."
"What can you do there? Just take care of Colleen, and let her keep her duty to be Mrs. Hudson." Camden hung up the phone when he finished his words.
Allison looked bad. Colleen walked in and asked, "Mom, what's the matter? Did Camden succeed? "
"We've got problems." Allison's face was pale and she continued, "Florence is not dead. Charlie's leg was cut off by someone, and Camden is now in a rage."
"Charlie is crippled?" Colleen's face showed joy and she added, "He really deserves it. He is Camden's favorite son. If Charlie is crippled, then Camden will like me more. Maybe the Tucker family's property will eventually be given to me and he’ll ask me to return to my real family."
"Coley." Allison hurriedly covered Colleen's mouth, looked out the door vigilantly, and closed it. "Walls have ears," she said.
"Mom, what are you afraid of?" "Colleen said, "Mom, the Scott family is going bankrupt. You need to have a back-up option for yourself. The title of the daughter of the Scott family is incomparable to the daughter of the Tucker family. Camden promised me before and he will let me return to the Tucker family."
"Coley, this is not that easy." Allison had seen it through. She had been Camden's mistress for so many years. And She had always sneaked around and kept it secret. Even Colleen couldn't be given a chance to be accepted by her biological father, and she could only take the surname of Scott.
It was a pity that she gave birth to a girl not a boy that year.
"Camden loves me so much. I share the blood of the Tucker family. Going back to my biological family is sooner or later."
Allison found that Colleen had such high hopes, so she couldn't bear to tell her what Camden said.
"Mom, by the way, how is Florence?"
"I don't know, none of the people sent by Camden returned."
Something came to Allison's mind and she asked, "Coley, you said that Florence had a boyfriend, and gave her a bracelet called 'Heart of the Goddess' which is worth eight million. Do you know anything about her boyfriend?"
Colleen said disdainfully, "That's just a poor guy wearing something cheap, and driving a car that is just worth one hundred thousand. How can he afford to give her such an expensive bracelet? Florence must be lying. The bracelet must be fake. Heidi must have seen it wrong."
Colleen didn't believe that the bracelet was real at all. Even if it was, she must get it by seducing a new-rich.
It was already the next morning when Florence woke up. She was limp and weak after the fever was gone.
When she opened her eyes, she looked at the leaves outside the window, and the sun was jumping on the leaves which gave her a false impression that years went by.
Her throat was very uncomfortable. Florence coughed and realized that she was still alive and wasn't drowned.
Florence's mind flooded with the memories of last night. After she jumped into the water, she seemed to hear Alexander's voice.
Could it be that he had rescued her?
The movement inside the ward startled the people outside. Alexander pushed the door open and came in. He felt a surge of joy when he saw Florence woke up.
"Florrie, you're awake." Alexander helped her sit up, and said with concern, "What is ailing you?"
Florence looked at Alexander and her eye suddenly turned red. She felt a jolt in her heart and fell into Alexander's arms.
She almost died last night. When she thought about it, she was still very scared.
Alexander hugged Florence into his arms and said gently, "I am here. Don't be afraid."
He felt Florence trembling in his arms. She must have been terrified last night.
At that moment, Alexander had never had such a strong idea in his heart that he wanted to protect the woman in his arms for the rest of his life.
Florence gripped Alexander's clothes tightly and sniffed. After she calmed down, she got up from his arms.
In these years, no matter what happened, she would bear all the things by herself. This was the first time that someone had told her not to be afraid.
"How did you find me?"
Alexander had already come up with an excuse. He said, "I called you, but your phone was turned off. I had a hunch that something happened to you. I called the police immediately. The police found you, but the kidnappers escaped."
Of course Alexander would not tell Florence that the two kidnappers had disappeared in Croycor forever.
Florence couldn't imagine if Alexander didn't find her, would she be dead?
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Florence did not think about whether Alexander's words were true or not.
From him, she felt warmth that she had never got.
After she jumped into the water, it seemed that someone also jumped down and kissed her lips.
"Alexander, you are so kind to me, what if I can't live without you in the future."
After being cheated on by Thomas, Florence didn't dare to pour her heart out to anyone.
But Alexander was so kind to her.
She was like a child who had never eaten candies. She couldn't give it up when she tasted the sweetness.
"Silly girl. What are you thinking?" Alexander touched Florence's nose and said with eyes full of love. "You are already mine. Unless I am dead, or you will never leave me in your life."
When Florence heard the word "dead", she subconsciously placed her index finger on Alexander's lips and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
Alexander was smiling when holding her hand. He placed her hand on his lips, and kissed it gently.
There was an itching from the palm of her hand, and Florence blushed.
At this moment, the nurse brought in the medicine and said, "Ms. Scott, it's time to take the medicine."
Florence blushed and pulled her hand back and glared at Alexander.
Alexander then wore a bigger smile.
The nurse put down the medicine and left after giving her a few warnings.
Florence hated taking medicine the most, and she was afraid when she saw the medicine. "Do I have to take it? It's too bitter."
"Yes," Alexander said and poured the water and handed it to her.
"Good medicine tastes bitter."
Florence frowned and got the medicine. She plucked up the courage, swallowed it and drank the water immediately, but she could still taste the bitterness in her mouth.
Before she got over the bitterness, she heard Alexander saying, "Open your mouth."
Florence opened her mouth subconsciously, but before she could react, Alexander kissed her lips with a candy in his mouth.
