Chapter 99 Paving the Way for Florence

Chapter 99 Paving the Way for Florence

Abigail couldn't guarantee that！

She thought for a while and said, “I went to the washroom before dinner began. But these donations were all locked in the room, it was impossible for someone to enter as I just left for less than five minutes."

Florence was pretty sure that the bracelets were not hers.

Andrew looked at Florence and asked, “Florrie, are you sure?"

"Yes," Florence glanced at Colleen who was offstage. She was there too when Florence donated the item. So, was it she that did it?

"Godfather, we'd better check the surveillance video."

Things could be clarified only by the surveillance footage.

"Okay, " Andrew sent someone to the monitoring room to get the footage.

Everyone was waiting. The man turned back and panicked, “Mr. Ryker, the surveillance system is damaged?"

"Damaged?" Andrew raised his voice, “How could it be this coincidental? Won't you fix it now?"

At this moment, everyone in the hall knew that the surveillance was damaged, and there was another murmur off the hall.

No one knew whether the surveillance was truly damaged or not. The key point was the surveillance and it had been damaged.

Perhaps the Cooper family wanted to find someone to take the blame for Florence, so the surveillance went 'damaged'.

Things got even worse.

The staff said in embarrassment, “Our maintenance personnel is working on it, but the damage is serious, it probably cannot be fixed."

Florence also did not know what to do in such circumstances, the key point was the surveillance that got damaged, no matter if it was a man-made or accidental breakdown, they needed to solve this ASAP.

At this moment, a deep voice sounded from the audience.

"Let me check that."

It was Alexander who spoke out.

His words surprised everyone; how could Alexander want to lend a hand?

Florence looked over, and Alexander nodded at her. She said tactfully, “Mr. Logan, thank you for your help."

Andrew felt relieved when hearing that Alexander would like to help.

Maxwell pushed Alexander to the monitoring room. People moved aside to make the way for them and some of them followed the two to the monitoring room.

Thomas also got up and walked toward the monitoring room. Colleen followed him and said, “Thomas, don't worry, with Mr. Logan's help, my sister will be fine."

"Why would Alexander help her?" Thomas stopped; he understood Colleen's implication.

"I don't know either. But Mr. Logan had helped her before, perhaps he falls in love with her." Colleen said this on purpose. Actually, she did not know the true story between Florence and Alexander, she just did not like the care Thomas had shown toward Florence.

Thomas recalled that Florence was now working at the headquarters of the Logan Group, and she almost married Alexander before. After hearing Colleen's words, he thought there must be something fishy between them.

Thomas hadn't seen Florence's boyfriend for a long time. Perhaps she had kicked her poor dumb boyfriend away, then hooked up with Alexander. And that was why she rejected his pursuit.

It must be so.

...

In the monitoring room...

A lot of people gathered around in front of the door.

Alexander got into the room, and Florence walked to his side, “Can it really be fixed?"

The surveillance screens were full of black and white dots, and the system was seriously damaged. Florence was really worried.

Alexander took a glimpse of her and said calmly, “Be confident."

Hearing his answer, Florence smiled gently.

There was a chemistry between them, which shocked the other people.

What was the relationship between Florence and Alexander exactly?

Then, what was even more shocking was that Alexander patiently taught Florence while he was fixing the surveillance video. Florence nodded from time to time, or made a voice of surprise and admiration, “It's so simple."

Everyone else was rendered speechless.

They had never seen Alexander being this approachable.

The way Alexander looked at Florence was warm and doting. People sensed love in the air around them.

Did Alexander fall in love with Florence? Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Soon, someone recalled Florence's escape from the marriage and the Logan family's overlooking that.

A person whispered, “Didn't Ms. Scott escape from Mr. Logan's marriage? But look at them, it's unusual."

"Maybe they are just having fun. Look at the way he looks at her, it's so doting. I'm sure there is a thing between them."

"Exactly. I have heard that Mr. Logan is ruthless and keeps himself away from women. But now, it seems that the rumor is wrong."

"Don't you think that Ms. Scott and Mr. Logan are a good match?"

Florence did not hear these discussions at all, she was focused on what Alexander was doing.

Alexander's slender fingers were quickly tapping on the keyboard, with the last Enter key, the monitoring screen was restored.

Florence surprisingly exclaimed, “It gets right now, you are so amazing."

Seeing Florence's joy and admiration for him, Alexander curled the corners of his mouth and his eyes were full of pampering of her.

William smiled, “For Alexander, this is just a small case."

Florence slid the mouse, clicked the surveillance video, and finally stopped the picture where she handed bracelets to the person in charge.

She clicked the fast-forward, and the whole surveillance screen was on the wall from every direction with no blind spots at all. Everyone could see it.

The video fast-forwarded, and there was nothing abnormal until Abigail, who was in charge of the donations, left and a woman in a working uniform sneakily appeared in the picture.

Alexander asked the hotel manager, “Do you recognize her?"

The manager looked carefully, “I don't."

Only a silhouette could be seen in the picture, and it was not very clear.

Abigail's voice came out, “Manager, she is a new recruit, coming here for only a couple of days. I asked her to take in charge when I went to the washroom."

The manager asked, “New recruit? What's her name?"

"Danica Matias."

Florence, who was looking at the surveillance video, narrowed her eyes when she heard the name. She carefully looked at the person in the picture and found it indeed was Danica, her ex-colleague.

"How could it be her?" Florence felt puzzled and surprised.

Alexander asked, “You know her?"

Maxwell answered for her, “She used to work with Ms. Scott in the same company. Later she resigned because she had framed Ms. Scott."

Maxwell deliberately described the dismissal as a resignation, as he tried to prevent Florence from being considered a narrow-minded person.

Florence looked at Maxwell gratefully.

Alexander ordered sharply, “Lock down the hotel, go find her."

In the surveillance video, Danica sneaked into the room and left again, looking a little flustered.

There was definitely something wrong with her.

As soon as Alexander ordered, the manager sent people to block the entrances and exits of the entire hotel.

Half an hour passed, yet they found no one.

The charity dinner could not be delayed like this forever. Florence and Alexander looked at each other and planned to let the dinner continue first.

At this moment, Beckham's voice came out, “Sis, that person is still in the hotel, she must be hiding in the operation room now."

Everyone looked back and found it was just a little kid. They started laughing.

Who would believe a kid’s words?

Beckham looked serious; he was not lying. Florence did trust him and said to Alexander, “Send someone to the operation room."
