Chapter 79 Alexander Was So Regretful

Chapter 79 Alexander Was So Regretful

Florence was in the hospital at this time. After she left the police station, she came directly to the hospital to visit Zachary.

As for what had happened tonight, Florence didn't reveal a word about it, and her expression was normal. Zachary didn't notice anything wrong with her.

Zachary was going to have surgery tomorrow, and he was still very nervous.

"Sis, if I can't survive the surgery tomorrow, you can't cry. I don't want to see you cry." Zachary pretended to be relaxed. "It's not a big deal. We will still be siblings in the next life."

"Stop talking nonsense." Florence rolled her eyes and said, "The operation will go smoothly, so don't overthink it. Take a good rest, get enough energy, and get ready for tomorrow's operation."

"I mean 'if'." Zachary smiled, showing a bit of cynicism and loneliness.

Even if the expert Timothy would personally perform the surgery, there was also a risk, and no one could make sure that he could really get off the operating table alive.

"There is no if." Florence helped tuck Zachary into his bed and said, "Have a good sleep."

"Sis." Zachary eyed Florence, and his eyes were gloomy with a trace of tears. But he forced a smile on his face, "If something really happens to me, can you help me find them? I just want to know why they don't want me. Do they hate me?"

The word "they" that Zachary referred to were his biological parents. He had been comforting himself for so many years that it was because of his illness that he was abandoned by his parents.

It was almost early morning when Florence left the ward.

The cold wind made her feel cold.

She walked down the steps and suddenly stood still. Her eyes fell on Alexander who was standing not far away.

Alexander stood under the street lamp with a cane. He was looking at her with a smile on his face.

"Alexander."

Florence felt a jolt in her heart and the scenes about the car accident came to her mind. She whispered and suddenly ran toward Alexander.

Florence hugged Alexander excitedly and her eyelashes were wet by her tears. "I'm really afraid that I won't be able to see you again."

Even if William had called him, she still felt uneasy when he stood right before her.

When Alexander stood in front of her alive, the emotion she had suppressed for so long finally broke out.

Florence hugged Alexander tightly and sobbed.

"I'm back." Alexander smiled and hugged Florence. He wished they could melt into each other. "I'm sorry to make you worry about me."

Florence hugged him for a while until she calmed down. Then she angrily beat Alexander's chest. "Who told you to risk your life? Alexander, you did it on purpose. If something really happens to you, do you want me to be guilty for the rest of my life?"

Florence cried, and she still remembered the panic she felt at the time.

The feeling when the doctor gave the critical illness notification was still fresh in her mind. She was really afraid that Alexander would die, and afraid that he would lose his legs.

"I'm sorry." Alexander smiled and held Florence's hands in his palm.

"You think it's fine to just say 'I'm sorry'?" Florence pretended as if she wouldn’t forgive him.

Alexander suddenly coughed badly, his body swaying as if he could not stand steadily.

"Alexander, are you okay?" Florence was frightened, and quickly got him. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"I pretended to be lame, and it almost came true. Do you still think I was okay?" Alexander teased. "If I was dead or lame, Kingston and his son would profit a lot."

Florence was startled, and she stared at him with her eyes filled with shock and mixed feelings.

Alexander admitted that he was the head of the Logan family, and that he was not an Uber driver at all.

Florence loosened Alexander little by little and stepped back to widen their distance.

Even if she had already guessed that he was the person in charge of the Logan family, she couldn't believe it when Alexander admitted it.

"Florrie... Florrie." Alexander furrowed his eyebrows and began to feel panicked.

Florence's eyes flickered. She curled her mouth and forced a smile. The memories that she had with Alexander came to her mind. She was deceived and played like a fool.

Florence sneered, "A billionaire Uber driver?"

Alexander couldn't think of anything to say.

Florence eyed Alexander's legs and face. She gritted her teeth and said, "Mr. Logan, as the rumors go, is a disfigured and crippled man. But from what I see, you can walk and have a fair-skinned face."

Alexander was silent.

Florence was in a rage. "Didn't you say that you couldn't survive for long?"

Alexander was silenced by her words. "Florrie... Florrie, this is a misunderstanding! Let me explain."

"I won’t listen to you." Florence turned around angrily, looking like she was not that easy to be coaxed.

Alexander walked around and stood in front of Florence and then said, "Florrie... Florrie, I am sorry that I lied to you."

"I won't listen to you." Florence covered her ears and turned around again.

Alexander explained patiently, "You just escape the marriage and I had no choice but to make such a move."

In other words, from the very beginning, Alexander already recognized who she was.

Florence thought of what she had done in front of Alexander before and she felt so embarrassed.

She was even worried that Alexander could not afford to pay for the meal in the Yard Kitchen.

But she was so stupid. There were so many clues, but she didn't even notice them.

William was the biggest clue.

How could the son of the James family who owned the James Film and Television Group really befriend an ordinary Uber driver and always took orders from Alexander?

The necklace ‘Heart of the Goddess’ which was sent by Alexander was worth eight million, but she didn't believe it.

It was not a coincidence that Christian's company was acquired overnight.

In addition, soon after Camden asked someone to kidnap her, his son was crippled. It was Alexander who protected her from behind and helped her out.

Florence thought of the past, and she was angry but moved.

"Florrie, can you forgive me for the fact that I almost broke my legs?" Alexander had a strong survival instinct.

"Oh, you are the dignified young master of the Logan family. Do you still need someone's forgiveness?" Florence sneered and said, "Since you are all right, then we are even now. Bye. I'm going home to sleep."

Florence's mind was in a whirl. Her top priority now was to leave. She thought leaving was the best way.

As soon as she took a few steps, she was lifted by Alexander.

Florence instinctively put her arms around Alexander's neck and said angrily. "Alexander! Put me down."

"I won't." Alexander was holding Florence as he walked toward the car and said overbearingly, "If I let go of you this time, then I will have no chance. Florence, I know you. There is no room for deception in your eyes."

Alexander was so determined this time. No matter what Florence's reaction was, he would never let her go.

Alexander held Florence into the car and found that Florence did not react at all. He lowered his head and looked at Florence who was in his arms, only to find she was staring at him in a trance.

Florence asked slowly, "Alexander, why does it have to be me?"

"I don't know." Alexander couldn't give her an accurate answer. "Perhaps, it is arranged by God."

Otherwise, why did Florence happen to bump into him when she ran away?

And that night, his car happened to break down.

When everything was so coincidental, it was fate.

Florence was taken aback and was unable to refute.

She was not heartless, and she knew what Alexander had done for her.

If a man could risk his life for her, then she needed to doubt his love for her.

What made Florence surprised and unbelievable was that Alexander would choose her, an imperfect girl.

There were only two of them in the car, and she was leaning against his arms. She felt as if she could hear his heartbeats.

She had lied to him, but they were even.

"How did you know I am here?"

"I know what has happened tonight." Alexander hugged her tightly. "Florrie... Florrie, let me take care of the rest. I will make those who hurt you pay a hundred times of the price"

He already knew it?

Florence's heart tightened, and she felt a sense of inferiority that she didn't dare to face Alexander.

Florence wanted to get up from Alexander's arms, but Alexander seemed to be able to see through her mind. He hugged her tighter.

"Don't feel inferior because of your imperfections. Florence, no matter what you’ve experienced, I, Alexander, will not leave you." Alexander said solemnly, "You are the only one that I want to marry."

The only one that he wanted to marry?

At that moment, Florence felt her eyes were glistening with tears.
