Chapter 85 Taking Over the Scott Group

Chapter 85 Taking Over the Scott Group

Florence was not happy at all when she heard the news. On the opposite, she felt a little bit disappointed.

She was once rejected by Lincoln when she implied him to hand over the company to her.

Now, he knew he was in trouble and could not withstand Camden by himself. The Scott Group would be hit hard sooner or later or even go bankrupt overnight. Under such circumstances, he wanted to hand over the hot potato to her.

To be honest, what Lincoln really wanted was the support of the Cooper Family.

Florence could figure out her father's intention, and so could Andrew.

"Florrie, what's your plan?"

Florence thought for a while, “The company is also the fruit of my mother's efforts, so I could not let them ruin it."

And that was the exact reason why Lincoln came to her.

Andrew nodded, he had already guessed Florence's decision, "It's late, go back and have a nice sleep, you need to refresh yourself. You've worked hard these days."

"Sure."

Florence left the study. Without an appetite, she only ate a little and went back to her room.

Beckham found Florence was restless, so he sneaked into her room in his cartoon pajamas.

Hearing Florence taking a shower in the bathroom, he slipped into the bed and hid himself well.

The door of the bathroom opened and Florence, wrapped in a bath towel, walked out and found her bed was bulging. Suddenly, Beckham's baby fat foot stretched out, it was so adorable.

"Beck, " Florence couldn't help laughing. She walked over and lifted the quilt. Beckham rolled on the bed, giggling.

"Sis, I want to sleep with you tonight, I can't fall asleep without you." Beckham hugged the quilt.

Florence was amused and laughed, “You know the rules, don’t kick the quilt, don’t..."

Beckham fluently took her words, “Don’t take advantage of you, I remember it."

Florence smiled. This little guy loved to find various reasons to sleep with her. And he never behaved well during his sleep, he always rolled into her arms after he fell asleep.

Beckham's skin was soft and smooth. In fact, with Beckham around, she could sleep more soundly.

It was more accurate to say that she became more and more inseparable from Beckham rather than the little guy clinging to her.

After Florence changed her pajamas, Beckham quickly hugged her around her waist. He raised his little red face and smiled brightly, "Sis, do you really like me?"

"You cute little thing, everyone loves you and even the flowers will bloom when seeing you."

Florence couldn't help pinching Beckham's face, it felt so great, "Go to bed now, you still need to go to the kindergarten tomorrow."

"Sis, sweet dream!" Beckham smiled and slipped into the bed.

Florence was about to turn off the light when the phone rang.

Alexander sent her a message.

Earlier, when they were off work, she had deliberately walked fast to avoid him.

Florence turned on her phone and found out it was a voice message from him. A mellow and bewitching voice came from the phone.

"Florrie, I can't sleep."

Florence was rendered speechless.

Why was he playing cute like Beckham?

Beckham suddenly got out of the quilt, “Sis, is it from Mr. Wheelchair?"

The first time that Beckham met Alexander, the latter was in a wheelchair, so Beckham gave him the nickname.

Florence answered, “Yes."

"Sis, could you please let me talk to Mr. Wheelchair?" Beckham rolled his black eyes with a hint of slyness, "I miss him."

The two could not get along well with each other, so how could he miss him?

Florence did not know how to reply to the message, so she handed the phone to Beckham.

Beckham smiled and dialed a video call directly.

Alexander, on the other side, was filled with ecstasy when he saw Florence's video call, he answered immediately.

"Florrie..."

"Alex, it's me!" Beckham waved at Alexander and smiled.

When Alexander saw Beckham in the video and realized he was sitting on Florence's bed, his face turned gloomy, “Little boy, where's your sister?"

Alexander did not see Florence in the video.

Alexander did not wear his mask this time because he did not know it was Beckham. Beckham looked at him and exclaimed, “Alex, you look so handsome!"

Alexander was pleased by Beckham's compliment, so he lowered his tone, “Little guy, you have good taste. Where's your sister?"

"My sister is sleeping with me, " Beckham adjusted the phone to Florence, held it in Florence's arm, and said triumphantly, “Alex, we are going to sleep now."

In other words, he was asking Alexander not to disturb them.

Florence was amused by Beckham, this little guy was obviously irritating Alexander on purpose.

Sure enough, seeing Beckham's little face rubbing against Florence's body with a look of enjoyment, Alexander felt like things that belonged to him were being occupied by someone else.

"Little guy, let go of your sister, she is mine."

"Hmm, no! My sister likes me the most, we sleep together every day." Beckham went further, he waved at Alexander, “Good night, Alex. I wish you a sweet dream."

"Little guy..."

"Beep!"

Beckham hung up directly.

Florence got dumbfounded by Beckham's behavior.

She did not text back. Now she found it was really interesting to see the two fighting against each other.

"Beck, go to sleep"

"Okay, " Beckham smiled and got into the quilt.

Hmm, don't even think about stealing his sister from him.

...

In the Southern Mountain Community...

After the video call, Alexander couldn't fall asleep.

"Easton, let's go to the Coopers’ mansion."

Easton stepped in and heard that Alexander was going to the Coopers’ mansion, he hurriedly said, “Yes, Mr. Logan. And why are we going to the Coopers’ mansion, it's so late."

"Pick up someone." Alexander walked fast with his cane.

He would definitely not be able to sleep tonight without picking Florence back.

Easton quickly realized that Florence was living in the Coopers’ mansion.

"Alexander, is it appropriate to pick up Ms. Scott this late?"

It was really inappropriate as it was late. He could not explain to Andrew, which was not good for Florence's reputation.

Therefore, he did not plan to enter the main entrance openly and honestly.

When they stopped beside the outer wall of the Coopers’ mansion, Easton looked at the two-meter- high wall and asked, “Alexander, are you sure we are gonna climb the wall and get in? Your leg hasn’t recovered well yet."

"That was why I want you to be here, " Alexander looked at the ground, and Easton quickly understood. He squatted down so that Alexander could climb over the wall with his help.

Even though Alexander had an injured leg, he climbed over the two-meter-high wall easily. Then Easton also climbed in.

The two stood against the wall, they wanted to find Florence but did not know which room she was in. Suddenly, two men were walking over. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

It was Andrew and Nicholas.

They also felt shocked and confused when seeing Alexander standing there.

The two...just climbed over the wall and got in?

Not expecting to be seen here, Alexander felt embarrassed. He thought this would ruin his fame forever, however, he did not show anything on his face, nor the slightest embarrassment.

In a second, Andrew realized that Alexander must come here to see Florence instead of him, and that was why he didn’t walk in through the main entrance and climbed in instead.

Andrew coughed lightly as if he did not see Alexander. He looked up to the sky, “The moon is really round tonight, Nicholas, did your sister sleep on the second floor?"

Nicholas was stunned, but he subconsciously replied, “Yes."

Alexander heard their talk and frowned.

Second floor?

Which room on the second floor was Florence's bedroom?

Andrew seemed to be able to hear Alexander's thoughts, and he asked again, “Which one was your sister's bedroom?"

Nicholas replied, “The third room on the left side of the second floor."

"Fine." Andrew nodded, “It's late, we'd better go to sleep now."

So they just left as if they had never seen Alexander.
