Chapter 83 The Last Warning
Katherine was crying like a weeping beauty. With her beautiful face, any man who saw her crying would be softhearted.
She was really sad. This was the first time that Alexander had yelled at her.
Seeing Katherine was so sad, Maxwell couldn't help but speak for her. "Alex, Katherine has already known she was wrong. Jessica just has one sister. For the sake of Jessica, forgive her this time. I have already taught her a lesson." Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Alexander slapped the table, gave him a sharp look, and said in a cold tone, "Get out now."
Katherine shivered subconsciously when hearing the slap, and her face turned pale.
Maxwell glanced at Katherine and pursed his lips. "Okay."
As soon as Maxwell left, Katherine panicked, and hurriedly said, "Maxwell."
If Maxwell was here, he could more or less help intercede for her.
Katherine's voice failed to stop Maxwell. What she had done was indeed serious this time. Katherine showed no repentance at all. Her words were full of lies, and she should be taught a lesson.
In the huge office, only Alexander and Katherine were left, and the air froze.
Alexander didn't say a word. He only sat in a chair, staring at Katherine coldly.
Katherine felt guilty and said, "Alex!"
Alexander lit a cigarette and smoked expressionlessly. "I am partly to be blamed for what happened to your sister. And because of this, I treat you well. I have been always thinking that you can learn to be gentle and kind like your sister, but I didn't expect you to be vicious that you broke the brakes. Don't tell me that you just want to teach Florence a lesson."
She wanted to kill Florence.
Katherine confessed her mistake immediately. "Alex, I didn't want to hurt Florence. It was just that I had words with Nora, so I wanted to teach her a lesson. I didn't expect it to have a serious result. Alex, I was wrong."
She would never admit that she was targeting Florence.
"Katherine." Alexander's eyes were cold and he said furiously, "You should be thankful that you are Jessica's sister, otherwise, you won't be able to leave here safely."
Katherine's heart trembled, and she said unbelievably, "Alex, are you going to kill me because of Florence?"
Alexander brushed the cigarette ash from his sleeve, arched his eyebrows coldly, and said, "This is what I owed your sister. Now we both are even. Go back to Liasaverde right now. Without my permission, you will never be allowed to come back."
When Alexander finished his words, he rolled his chair around.
Katherine's eyes were red, and her tears dropped. "I can go, but I hope you will not forget that my sister died for you, and five years have passed, her body even has not been found. You owe my sister forever. You forgot my sister. You failed her."
Katherine finished her words without a stop and then she ran out of the office, crying.
Alexander was silent. Five years ago, Steven drugged him. At that time, his enemy found him. Jessica lured those people away and never came back.
Alexander closed his eyes with a heavy heart. As Katherine said, he owed Jessica forever. He couldn’t pay her back in his life, nor could he have a chance to pay her.
Maxwell saw Katherine crying and running out, and he immediately chased after her.
"Katherine."
Katherine stopped and looked at Maxwell angrily. "You are satisfied now, right? Alex told me to leave Croycor and I am not allowed to come back again."
"Katherine, I'm just here to give you a piece of advice. Don't be a smart-ass and treat people as fools." Maxwell put his hands in his pockets and said in a light tone, "Your sister used to take good care of me, so I remember her kindness in my heart. I didn't sell you out just now, but Alexander has known everything."
"I'm against Florence. So what? She is nothing compared with my sister." Katherine wiped away her tears and said, "When I first saw Florence, I hated her so much. My sister loved Alexander so much. He is my sister's man. No one can have a relationship with him!"
"What about you?" Maxwell said with added emphasis, "Are you doing it for your sister, or because you love my cousin?"
"I..." Katherine was silenced by what he said. "I have always been envious of the relationship between my sister and Alex. You all thought that my sister died for saving Alex. But who can be sure that my sister is really dead?"
Maxwell frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"I always dreamt of my sister recently. I think my sister may not be dead."
Maxwell suddenly became solemn. If Jessica was not dead, then things would be worse.
Alexander had already fallen head over heels in love with Florence. If Jessica was still alive, it would be a big problem.
However, they hadn't gotten any news about Jessica for five years. How could it be possible that she was still alive since she was caught by those people?
Florence finished her work and got off work on time.
For fear that she would be asked to stay by Alexander, Florence took her bag and ran out of the company as if she was running away from a monster.
Alexander's face suddenly became terrible when he learned that Florence had left.
And the fact that Alexander called Katherine to his office quickly reached Steven's ears.
"Alexander scolded Katherine and made her cry?"
His secretary nodded, "Yes. I saw it with my own eyes. Ms. Preston ran out of the office tearfully, and Maxwell chased after her. Alexander seemed to ask Ms. Preston to leave Croycor."
"Why? Did you hear the reason?" Steven was interested.
"It seems that it's because of Florence's car accident." His secretary asked, "Mr. Logan, does Alexander have feelings for Florence? I asked someone to get a line on it. Florence was recommended to work in the headquarters by Maxwell. And he is on Alexander's side. Do you think it is Alexander's idea?"
Steven frowned, and he suddenly remembered that Florence had almost married Alexander before.
Before her, the three women who had married Alexander died inexplicably.
Florence was the only one who wasn't blamed by Alexander for escaping the marriage.
Alexander disappeared for a while but he came back suddenly. He asked someone to investigate what had happened and knew that Alexander had an accident. Even their grandfather was also alarmed. On the day that Alexander had an accident, Florence also had an accident.
How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
Steven thought for a while and suddenly laughed. "My cousin is so good at hiding secrets. After waiting for so many years, I finally found his weakness."
Florence got a call from the police when she was on the way to the hospital to visit Zachary.
Colleen was clamoring to see her in the house of detention.
Florence thought for a while and turned the car around and headed to the police station.
Camden personally went to the police station to find Declan, but the latter still refused to help Colleen get out. He couldn't figure out who else was supporting Florence.
His intuition told him that the person who helped Florence was also the one who crippled his son before.
Camden couldn't bail Colleen out, so he could only go through judicial procedures.
Colleen was panicked and scared, and she clamored to see Florence.
The police couldn't stand it anymore, so they called Florence.
Florence stood outside the iron gate while looking at Colleen who was shrinking in the corner indifferently.
"I heard that you want to see me."
