Drowning In His Deep Love (Re-edited)

Chapter 51 Breakup

Chapter 51 Breakup

After Florence started working in the headquarters of the Logan Group, she had been very busy, and gradually left Alexander behind.

This day, as soon as Florence handed in the report and came out of the office, she ran into William.

William was the eldest son of the James family who owned the James Film and Television Group. It had been a few days since he worked in the headquarters. Florence also knew that William was the vice president of the Logan Group.

When Florence saw William, she naturally thought of Alexander.

Since they broke up, they had never contacted each other.

Florence was about to turn around and walk away. But William saw her and called her, "Ms. Scott."

Florence had to stop and said, "Mr. James, what a coincidence."

This was the first time that Florence had seen William after joining the headquarters for so long.

William didn't often stay at the company, and he just came here occasionally.

"Ms. Scott, you seem to be hiding from me?" William said half-jokingly and half-seriously. "Even if you broke up with Alexander, we are still friends. I feel a bit sad that you are avoiding me."

"How can I hide from you? I didn't see you just now." Florence smiled and lied through her teeth, and quickly changed the subject, "Mr. James, are you going out?"

Of course, William could see through Florence's mind. She wanted to send him away.

After Florence joined the headquarters, he asked someone to keep watching her.

After Florence and Alexander broke up, Alexander often got drunk and his temper became so bad. But Florence seemed to be not affected at all and did what she needed to do as usual.

William said, "Yes. By the way, Ms. Scott, haven't you contacted Alexander during this period?"

"We have broken up, and there is no need to contact him or meet him again." Florence said, "Merry meet, merry part."

She was so determined to make a clear break with him.

William sighed deliberately and said, "I have to go to the hospital and I can't talk with you now. By the way, Alexander is in hospital. Ms. Scott, do you know about this?"

William asked as if he didn't know her answer. Of course, Florence didn't know about that.

Upon hearing this, Florence was shocked, and she asked anxiously, "What's wrong with him?"

Seeing that Florence still cared about Alexander, William felt that there was a chance for them to reconcile. And then he heaved a long sigh on purpose and said, "What else could have happened to him? He had a car accident. The fact that you broke up with him had a big impact on him. He always got himself drunk. He is an Uber driver and still needs to work. Drunk driving must be dangerous. He drove yesterday and collided with a large truck."

Florence's heart skipped a beat and she asked, "Is he okay?"

"It was very serious. He is still in the hospital. The car was crashed and scrapped on the spot. He passed out and was in a coma at that time. The doctor issued several critical illness notices. After one night, he was finally out of immediate danger."

William exaggerated the accident and told her it was very serious. It was actually a small car accident and Alexander just had a mild concussion. He didn't even scrape his skin.

William observed Florence's expression, and added, "Alexander is seriously hurt. Even if he is out of the immediate danger, his heart has already died."

Florence asked anxiously, "Which hospital is he in?"

"Gold River Hospital." Slyness flashed across William's eyes, and he said without any facial expression, "Ms. Scott, you already broke up with Alexander. You don't need to go to see him. It will have a negative impact on you."

"Nonsense. He was seriously injured and was sent to the hospital. How could I not go see him?" Florence said anxiously, "Take me there. I'll go with you."

"Ms. Scott, didn't you say that there is no need to contact him or meet him again?"

"Do you believe in women's words?" Florence hurriedly walked out and said, "I changed my mind, couldn’t I? Being capricious and two-faced is the exclusive right of women."

William was speechless.

In the hospital...

Leaning against the head of the hospital bed, Alexander was flipping through newspapers and magazines when the door of the ward was suddenly pushed open.

Florence just appeared in front of him unexpectedly.

"Alexander, are you hurt?"

They were looking at each other's eyes.

Florence found that Alexander was sitting on the bed, looking so well without any injuries on him, let alone serious injuries. She suddenly realized that she was fooled.

Florence glared at William, the culprit.

William touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Alexander, your physical quality is really good. You woke up so soon. You guys may have a talk and I'll go out for a walk."

William made room for them.

They hadn't seen each other for a week. Florence felt a little uncomfortable when she met him again, especially when Alexander's scorching eyes were fixed on her. It made her feel very guilty.

There was a sudden silence in the ward.

After a long while, Florence finally broke the silence. "Since you are all right, I gotta go."

"Who told you that I'm fine?" Alexander suddenly said, "I had a mild concussion and the doctor said it may bring some sequelas."

Florence glanced at Alexander and asked, "Is it serious?"

"Yes." Alexander folded the newspaper.

"What did the doctor say?"

"I should stay in the hospital for observation."

"Then you..." Florence suddenly didn't know what to say.

This question-and-answer mode was a bit embarrassing.

Florence remembered what William said. She weighed her words and persuaded him, "Alexander, I didn't know that breaking up with me would be such a heavy blow to you. I hope you won't be so dejected. I feel sad when seeing you acting like this."

Alexander narrowed his eyes, and his voice was cold, "What did William tell you?"

"He said that you always got yourself drunk and that was why you were in a car accident." Florence already knew that William had exaggerated the situation, but she was also the one to be blamed.

Alexander's expression suddenly became colder. "Don't take his words seriously. It was just an accident. I didn't get drunk at all. It's just a breakup. I didn't take it to my heart."

Upon hearing what he said, William, who was eavesdropping at the door, complained in his heart.

‘Alexander is so stubborn and reluctant to admit he was heartbroken.’

‘Didn't take it to heart? Then why did he ask me to drink with him every day?’

‘How would Florence come back to him in this way?’

‘It seemed that whether they could reconcile would have to depend on me.’

Florence breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what Alexander said but she felt disappointed inexplicably. She ignored the faint feeling in her heart and said, "That's good, then you should take care of yourself. I have to go back to work."

"Okay."

Alexander moved his eyes away, and there was no expression on his face, but he unconsciously increased the strength in his hands which were holding the newspaper. And the newspaper became out of shape.

Florence just left.

At the door, she saw William, but she left without saying anything.

After Florence left, William walked into the ward. "Alexander, in your heart, you do hope that Ms. Scott will stay with you. But why did you let her go again?"

"Keep your mouth shut!" Alexander gave him a cold look. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

William pulled out a chair and sat down. "If I kept my mouth shut, would Ms. Scott come to see you? Alexander, don't make the cold war too long. Otherwise, your relationship will be really over. Look at Ms. Scott's talent and appearance. Many men are after her, so don't make yourself regret."

Alexander kept a blank face and said nothing.

A nurse walked in at this moment and said, "Mr. Logan, your discharge procedures are completed, you can leave now."

Alexander flipped through the newspapers, and said expressionlessly, "I will stay a few more days."

"Huh?" The nurse was confused.

How could someone be addicted to staying in the hospital?

William immediately understood Alexander's intentions, and he was delighted and said to the nurse, “I’ll pay for the expenses of the ward for next month."
