Drowning In His Deep Love (Re-edited) novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52 Never Say Uncle

Florence returned to the company but she was absent-minded.

If she didn't meet Alexander, she wouldn't feel anything. But now when they met each other again, she couldn't calm down. She felt flustered. Memories they shared when they were in love came to her mind from time to time.

Florence shook her head. She couldn't think about it anymore. Now that they had broken up, she should just go ahead.

Florence went to the tea room to get water. She saw a group of colleagues gathering together and gossiping. Seeing Florence, they quickly asked her to join them.

"Ms. Scott, do you know Katherine Preston who came from a subsidiary with you?"

"I don't know her well, what's the matter?" Florence was confused.

After entering the headquarters, she hadn't even seen Katherine. If her colleague didn't mention that girl, she would have forgotten that Katherine came to the headquarters with her to study.

"Just now I saw her coming upstairs in the same elevator with Mr. Logan. She came from the same subsidiary as you. So, I thought you knew her background."

Katherine was here?

Florence was quite curious.

Another colleague said enviously, “That Katherine is so beautiful. Her figure is really amazing, with big breasts and a thin waist. Even I was envious of such a woman."

"I just looked at her waist. I can hold it with just one hand. I'm afraid that amid us, only Ms. Scott can compare with her in this aspect."

Florence was so curious about a person for the first time when listening to the gossip.

Who was Katherine?

The chat was in full swing in the tea room, and suddenly a beautiful lady in a rose-red dress walked in.

Florence heard a colleague next to her say, “This is Katherine."

She was very pretty.

Florence couldn't help looking at her a few more times. Katherine was so young. She should be in her early twenties, and her face was full of collagen.

"Hello everyone." Katherine took the initiative to greet everyone and reached out to get some water smilingly.

The colleague standing before the drinking fountain stepped aside.

Katherine smiled and said, "Thank you."

The colleague said in a hurry, “You're welcome."

Katherine took the water and turned her eyes to Florence, “You are the goddaughter of the Cooper family, Florence!"

This was not a secret. Almost everyone in the company knew that Florence was the goddaughter of the Cooper family.

Florence said naturally, “Yes, I am."

"I am Katherine. Nice to meet you. I should have come to the company with you on Monday. But I was suddenly ill and it was delayed until today." Katherine smiled and continued, “I hope we can get along well with each other at work in the future."

Florence smiled, “So do I."

Even though Katherine was very kind, Florence still felt uncomfortable when getting along with her.

After the first meeting with Katherine in the tea room, Florence returned to her seat and continued to work on herself.

Without the harassment from the Scotts, she rarely stayed quiet for a few days.

She clocked out early today. When Florence passed by the market, she got out of the car and went in to buy some food. She even bought a chicken to make some soup.

Although Alexander said that his car accident had nothing to do with her, she still thought that she should do something out of morality.

Florence persuaded herself in this way. She simmered the soup, went to the company early the next morning, and waited at the door of William's office.

When someone came, she handed the thermos lunchbox to William.

William asked, “What is this."

"Chicken soup."

William was flattered, “Ms. Scott, you are so kind to me. Thank you for sending me the chicken soup early in the morning."

"It's not for you. It's for him." Florence said, "Mr. James. Please give it to him for me when you go to the hospital."

"If it's for Alexander, Ms. Scott, you should send it by yourself." William said, "If Alexander knows that it’s made by you, he must be very happy. Then if you can bury the hatchet, that would be so good."

"I didn't make it, I bought it from outside." Florence lied, “Don't get me wrong. I just want to console him as a friend. And I meant nothing else. Thank you."
