Chapter 23 To Cut Ties At Cross Purposs

Chapter 23 To Cut Ties at Cross Purpose

Colleen knew what the business was, but she deliberately asked so.

Of course she knew that they had been caught.

Her mother's cheating was caught, but she didn't expect it to be so serious. Lincoln, who had always listened to her mother, beat her mother like this.

Family scandal should not be publicized, but who would know it if he beat her at home?

When she saw Colleen coming, Allison cried in her arms, "Coley, I don't want to live anymore, Florence set me up, and your father is going to kill me."

"Mom, don't cry." Colleen comforted Allison, looked at Lincoln and said, "Dad, I also heard about what happened tonight. It must be Florence who framed mom. You should let mom explain. She told me before that there was something wrong with the company. The question is, mom came to meet Camden for investment. You have misunderstood her."

Before the reveal, Colleen would not be so stupid to declare herself. She didn't care the title of the Scott family's daughter, what she really wanted was to be the daughter of the Tucker family.

But she hadn't been accepted by the Tucker family yet, so she couldn't be too heartless to the Scott family.

Colleen gave Allison a wink. On the way here, Colleen had already inquired about what happened tonight.

Allison softened her tone and echoed, "Lincoln, Coley is right. Nothing happened between me and Camden. I just couldn’t bear to see that you had a hard time recently because of lack of money, so I

asked Camden to come out for dinner, thinking that he may invest in the company."

"Dad, how many years have you been with mom? Don't you trust her?" Colleen and Allison were on the same side, " Mom loves you wholeheartedly, how will she betray you."

"Yes, Lincoln, we have been married for more than ten years." Allison wiped away her tears, and grumbled, "I am committed to this family, but you still doubt me. All right, now we have offended Camden. Besides, your eldest daughter also offended the Cooper family. We can do nothing but wait for the Cooper family to come and settle the account."

Allison deliberately shifted the problem to Florence.

As expected, when he heard Florence's name, Lincoln was furious, "This unfilial daughter." C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Compared with Allison's infidelity, the top priority now was how to deal with the Cooper family.

Colleen and Allison looked at each other and found that Lincoln's attention was diverted. Colleen seemed worried, but in fact she only made things worse. She said, "Dad, Nicholas will seek revenge for the smallest grievance, and he will definitely come for revenge. Even if Florence no longer lives at home, her surname is Scott, she’s still a member of the Scott family. The Cooper family will only put this account on the Scott family, and then the Scott family will be over."

Lincoln was sad, and his face looked very pale.

Allison continued to say, "It's all because of Florence, so she should solve it. He should revenge on the right person. Lincoln, if you don't want the Cooper family to have trouble, there is only one way."

"What’s it?" Lincoln asked subconsciously, Evidently, he was scrupulous of the Cooper family.

A touch of pride flashed in Allison's eyes. She said, "Sever the relationship with Florence. As long as she is no longer one of our family member, then the Cooper family has no reason to make

trouble."

When Colleen heard this, she was overjoyed and urged, "Yes, Dad. I think this idea is good, don't hesitate anymore, otherwise the Cooper family will come after dawn, then it will be too late."

Lincoln frowned, "But after all, Florence is my daughter."

Even though he didn't like his eldest daughter, Lincoln had never thought of severing the relationship.

"Dad, if the Scott family is over, it will not exist in Croycor anymore." Colleen said unwillingly, "You have been working so hard for most of your life, but you will lose everything. You should cut off ties with Florence and solve matters about the Cooper family. As for Camden, I will take Thomas to have a meal with Camden another day. For the sake of the Hudson family, he will let go of what happened today."

Colleen's words moved Lincoln very much.

Lincoln began to consider what she proposed, and he didn't want the company which he had worked so hard for most of his life to collapse like this.

Allison urged again, "Lincoln, the sky is about to dawn. If you don't make a decision, it will be too late."

Lincoln hesitated and said, "I will find a lawyer to help me sever the relationship with Florence before dawn. You stay at home and I’ll go out now."

Florence offended the Logan family first, and now she offended the Cooper family too. Sooner or later, the Scott family would have to be destroyed by Florence.

Lincoln thought of what Alexander warned him last time that he couldn't decide Florence's marriage. Perhaps it was because she had offended the Logan family so that Alexander would say such things. Maybe sooner or later he would come after Florence.

Thinking of it, Lincoln even wanted to sever ties with Florence as soon as possible so that things would not get worse.

As soon as Lincoln left, Allison grabbed Colleen's hand and cried, "Coley, if you come later, I will be beaten to death."

"Mom.” Colleen was relieved, "How could you be so careless to be set up by Florence?"

"That damn girl, I won't let it go for what happened today." Allison's eyes were full of resentment. She spoke too loudly that it pulled the wound on her face and made her take a breath of pain, which made her hated Florence more.

Allison hurriedly sat down on the sofa, "Coley, thank you for your cleverness, I'm so happy that you are much more mature than before."

Allison was a little surprised by Colleen's change. She made Lincoln promise to sever relationship with Florence in a few words.

Colleen's eyes were filled with jealousy, "Thomas still has feelings for Florence, I will not let Florence off."

...

The next day...

Florence woke up. She touched her side, and no one was there.

Alexander was not in the bed.

Habit was really a horrible thing.

It was only half a month after they lived together, and she was used to seeing him when she woke up. If he was not here, she would feel empty in her heart.

Florence stretched her body, smelled the scent from the kitchen, and felt hungry.

Florence put on slippers and walked to the kitchen. Alexander had already prepared a loving breakfast.

Fried eggs with ham and sandwiches with milk.

"You woke up. Go wash your hands. Breakfast will be ready in a minute." Alexander smiled and brought the breakfast on the table.

If the Logan family knew that the man in charge of Logan family was making breakfast for his girlfriend in a room less than 30 square meters, they would be shocked to drop their jaw.

Looking at it, Florence felt very happy in her heart for the steamy breakfast.

"Thank you dear." Florence kissed Alexander's cheek on tiptoe.

She was now used to doing anything intimate with Alexander.

Alexander was satisfied, "It's almost late for work."

"Really." Florence looked at the time and quickly went to wash up and change her clothes. She hid behind the screen partition, "No peeking.”

Alexander pulled a wry face. Which part of Florence hadn't he seen yet?

After getting dressed, Florence sat down for breakfast, and Alexander suddenly said, "Florrie, let's change to a bigger house."

"This house is warm but too small." He didn't want Florence to be live in this small house.

When it came to changing the house, Florence was a little entangled, "Now the price of houses in Croycor is so high, the rent price is too high, and we have to save money to buy a house. If you change the house, it is not worthwhile."

Florence was very good at budgeting.

She could even split a penny into two to use.

Zachary's illness also made Florence worry. So she wanted to earn more money so that Zachary wouldn't need to rely on the Scott family.

"I have money..." Alexander was interrupted by Florence before he finished.

"You can't waste money even though you have money. It's so hard to make money by driving car." Florence said, "By the way, you took the car to fix it. You said it last night. You will stay at home these few days, and you are not allowed to go anywhere. Take a good rest. Did you hear me?"

Did his girlfriend feel sorry for his hard work?

Alexander smiled, "Okay, it's all up to you. By the way, the salary is to be paid today, so remember to check it."

Alexander had gave Florence the bank card before.

"Okay." Florence ate hurriedly ,"My dear, I have to go to work. You should be obedient, and wait for me to return home."

"Ok."

Alexander always spoiled Florence infinitely.

As soon as Florence went out, he received a call from Audrey, "Florence, have you read the news? Your father has severed ties with you."

"Audrey left last night, and she didn't know what happened later. She just found out this a while ago.

Florence read it online. It turned out to be that Lincoln asked the lawyer to announce that Lincoln had severed ties with her.

She was no longer the daughter of the Scott family.

Lincoln seemed to be really afraid of getting involved with her. He only said on the Internet that he would cut off the relationship with her even without posting a photo of her.

Few people knew who the eldest daughter of the Scott family was, but now they all knew that she had been kicked out from the Scott family.

After all, they were real father and daughter. Now she was completely abandoned. It was false to say that Florence was not uncomfortable at all.

Florence also understood it very well that Lincoln was afraid of offending the Cooper family so that he broke the relationship with her.

Other fathers were defending daughters when their daughter was bullied. But her father was ruthless and selfish, and directly kicked her out.

Lincoln cutting off relationship with Florence also caused a sensation on the Internet.

Alexander also saw the news.

His eyes turned cold, and he felt distressed for Florence at that moment.

Alexander took advantage of Florence's absence and went back to the Logans’ mansion.

He put on a scar mask, held a cane, and looked sick.

The Logans’ mansion was full of spies. If Alexander wanted to hide from those Logans who was very ambitious, he couldn't relax.

William came here early. "Boss, have you seen the news on the Internet? Seriously, it' s my first time to see such a daunting father. I don't know if Lincoln knows that his daughter is your girlfriend. Will Lincoln regret today's decision if he knows it."

"He doesn't matter. Now that he has abandoned Florence, he will have nothing to do with her in the future." Alexander's tone was light, "It saves trouble."

William agreed. "That's right. This kind of ruthless and selfish father, what can he do?"

As he said, a lady came over with joy, "Son, I heard from your uncle that you have a girlfriend. When will you bring her back to visit me?"

She was Alexander's mother, Courtney Beckett.

Courtney was overjoyed when she heard that her son had a girlfriend.

Three of his wives had "dead". Alexander well-know for cursing his wife to death. It was said that his face was ruined, his legs were lame and he could only live for a few years. No girl in Croycor dared to marry him.

But his mother knew that her son was going to achieve great things and he just made a fake disfigurement of his lameness. However, it couldn't influence him to find a daughter-in-law for her.

She couldn't have her grandson in this way.

In fact, if it weren't for Alexander's good luck, he would really have died in that car accident.

The Logan family was a large family of hundreds of people, with many collateral relatives. All of them were eager to be the person in charge of the Logan family.

It was not easy to be the man in charge of Logan family.

Alexander gave a cold glance to William, and William immediately said, "Boss, you shouldn't blame me. You protected Ms. Scott last night, and your uncle watched it."

"Son, you have a girlfriend. That's a great thing. Why do you hide it from me." Courtney smiled and said, "I heard she’s from the Scott family? Son, when will you take her back?"

"Not available." Alexander frowned.

"If you don't bring her back, then I will meet her in person." Courtney was very excited, "Don't worry, mom won't do anything bad to her, I promise that I’ll just go to see her."

Alexander knew his mother's character. If he really stopped her, maybe she would really do something.

Alexander's tone was cold, "Don't scare her."

"Look at you, your mother is not scary. I'm going to see my future daughter-in-law." Courtney smiled, "I'm leaving now."

Courtney came in a hurry and left in a hurry.

William asked in a worried tone, "Boss, can we just let your mom go to Ms. Scott? What if something goes wrong?"

"My mother has a sense of measure." The corner of Alexander's mouth raised, "Anyway, she should meet her mother in-law sooner or later."
