Chapter 57 Alexander’s Three Questions

Alexander was stunned by Beckham's appearance.

He immediately recognized that this child was the one who called Florence mommy at the family feast.

"Why is this child here?" Alexander was surprised and asked subconsciously.

At the family banquet, Alexander and Beckham were separated by a certain distance. So, he did not see Beckham clearly. Now that Beckham was standing right in front of him, he found Beckham inexplicably familiar.

Florence was nervous, then she forced a laugh while explaining, "I took him here."

"Sis, I have to pee." Beckham clenched his legs and was in a hurry. "I can't hold it anymore."

"Hold it for a moment. I'll take you to the washroom right now." Florence was anxious when she found Beckham's face was flushed.

There was quite a distance between the office and the washroom, and there was certainly no way for Beckham to hold himself and walk there.

Florence found Alexander's washroom was open. Then she said, "Mr. Logan, I want to borrow your washroom. It is kind of urgent. " As she said, she scooped Beckham and rushed into the washroom of the lounge.

"Florence." Alexander could not stop her before she went in.

Florence took off Beckham's pants quickly, but the toilet was too high, and Beckham could not hold them anymore. So, he directly peed on the floor.

Alexander followed right after them. He looked at the urine all over the ground, but somehow, he did not get angry.

Even he was surprised by himself.

Alexander had got mysophobia. If this happened in the past, he would have kicked them out.

Florence hurried to clean the toilet and flushed the urine off the floor. Then she took Beckham to wash his hands.

The washroom was full of the aroma of shower gel, and even the vapor had not yet dissipated.

Alexander stood in the doorway. He looked at Florence washing Beckham's hands. Somehow, he felt this scene warm, and he did not want to disturb it.

After urinating, Beckham felt released. He wiped his hands and asked, "Sis, can you leave now? I am still hungry."

Florence wanted to leave, but her big boss was still here, and he didn't say that she could go.

Florence looked at Alexander and smiled brightly, "Mr. Logan, can I leave now?"

Alexander was afraid that the scar on his face would scare Beckham, so he put on his mask.

"This kid..." Alexander stared at Beckham. "He teamed up with Thiago to put on a good show and it almost ruined your reputation. How could you stay with him?"

"Beck has no parents, and Thiago was in prison again. No one can take care of him. I thought he was cute, so I adopted him." Florence said. "He is just a kid who can't tell right from wrong. I cannot

let him stay with bad people again."

Alexander was surprised. he did not expect Florence to have adopted the child.

"You are unmarried... but you adopted a child. And your boyfriend is fine with that?"

Florence said without hesitation, "I have broken up with him."

Alexander frowned. He was wearing a long face under the mask.

After hearing Florence say these words without hesitation and with no sadness, Alexander was even more unhappy.

He repressed his emotions and asked, "But you will marry someone in the future. How could you get married if you are with a child?"

Florence shrugged, "No one says that a woman has to marry someone."

After breaking up with Alexander, Florence had not planned to be in a relationship again, let alone get married.

With Beckham, she felt that her life was enriched, and she did not need a man at all.

"Did you really break up with your boyfriend?" Alexander knew the answer, but he still asked and laughed. "Didn’t you say that you would not marry anyone but him before? Or did you lie to me back then?"

Florence felt embarrassed. She could not talk to Alexander about her personal relationship. She also could not admit that she was talking nonsense to get rid of him back then.

When Florence was embarrassed, Beckham stared at Alexander. He crossed his arms and said, "Do you want to pursue my sister? She is mine. She promised me that when I grew up, she would

marry me. You are not a gentleman if you take away my love by force."

Florence was stunned. How could he know these words?

Beckham looked at Alexander as if he was looking at a love interest.

Alexander had a naughty smile. The way Beckham spoke in front of him reminded him of Vincent.

Florence pulled Beckham and smiled at Alexander, "It is just a babble of a child. Mr. Logan, please don't take it seriously."

Then, she said to Beckham, "Beck, this is my big boss. He doesn’t intend to pursue me. You misunderstood it."

Mr. Logan was pursuing her?

It was scary to think about it.

Florence still wanted to live well. Even if Marissa said marrying Alexander would bring her many benefits and she might have a chance to get the inheritance directly, she still needed to keep herself alive to spend the money.

Seeing that Florence was so afraid to get involved with him, Alexander was in a gloomy mood again, then he said, "Go."

"So can I leave?" Florence felt happy.

"Well, I'm hungry too. Let's go for dinner together."

"What? Together?"

"What? You work in my company. Shouldn't you invite your big boss to dinner? Hmm?" It seemed that Alexander was saying, “I am allowing you to suck up to me, your big boss. You should be grateful.”

Florence was stunned. Why should she invite him to dinner?

Shouldn't it be the boss to treat his employee to dinner?

How could she afford to pay for his dinner?

But Alexander's tone made Florence a little afraid. She didn't dare to refuse him.

He was the person in charge of the Logan family and her big boss.

"Of course. It's my honor." She said with a wired smile.

Right after finishing the words, she saw Alexander pull off the bath towel on his waist in front of her. Florence was shocked and turned her head away immediately and covered Beckham's eyes.

Then she realized that Alexander was wearing a pair of undershorts instead of being naked.

Florence realized that Alexander was teasing her. Then she held Beckham’s hand and said, "Mr. Logan, we will go out and wait for you outside."

"OK." Alexander said in a cold voice and then reminded her faintly, "Do not run away. You have done this before."

She even dared to run away from the wedding. So, it was no big deal for her to run away from a meal.

Florence was rendered speechless.

She took Beckham out.

She wanted to escape, but did she have the guts?

Whether she can keep her job or not depended on the mood of Alexander right now.

Alexander watched Florence going out with Beckham hand-in-hand. And he could not help but smile.

He put on his clothes, and when he went out, he found Florence waiting for him obediently with Beckham in her arms.

Alexander didn't ask Easton to drive today and drove by himself.

Florence knew that his lameness was fake anyway, and there was no need to hide this from Florence.

Florence and Beckham got into Alexander's limo, which was very spacious. Beckham stared curiously at the mask on Alexander's face and asked, "Sir, why are you wearing a mask? This mask is so cool. Can you show it to me?"

Florence thought of Alexander's scarred face. If his face was intact, he would not want to wear a mask in public.

Then she thought that if he took the mask off, Beckham would definitely be scared.

Only then did Florence notice that Alexander had put on the mask when he saw Beckham. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

He was afraid of scaring Beckham.

Florence hadn’t expected that Alexander was quite thoughtful.

Alexander felt speechless and asked, "Why do you call me sir, but call her sis?"
