My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins
Chapter 26: As If Being Conned
Cooper Scott looked at Florence confusedly after hearing her words.
Florence paused for a second and continued, "Do you still remember the entrance exam of University A five years ago? I had an accident and I was late and not permitted to take the exam. It was you that helped me out."
If it wasn't for Cooper, Florence would have missed her chance to enroll in University A.
Cooper was not surprised and smiled.
"I thought you have forgotten me."
Cooper had recognized Florence at first sight.
Back then, Florence had an accident, and there were injuries on her body. Yet, she showed up outside the exam hall without any bandaging.
Until now, the persistence and enthusiasm of hers were still fresh in Cooper's mind.
Cooper's words were an affirmation.
Florence was over the moon, "I wanted to thank you after the exam but I couldn't find you at all…"
"After that, I had gone to Europe as an exchange student."
Cooper's gaze darkened, and he seemed not wanting to talk about it anymore.
He smiled and said, "You can still make it up to me now. How about treating me to dinner after work?"
"Sure."
Florence agreed without hesitating. Even if Cooper didn't request it, she would offer him too.
Elise Bennett was holding her phone, walking into the company with a smile on her face.
She was in a good mood today. She had finally found the right opportunity to release her anger after suppressing it for some time.
"Ms. Bennett, what makes you so happy?"
A colleague greeted Elise warmly when seeing her.
Elise Bennett was a senior designer with a high position in the company, so a group of women always surrounded her.
She raised her phone, "A tittle-tattle. Follow me to the lounge. I'll tell you."
As she said, Elise had a hostile stare at Florence's spot. But she was stunned when she saw that handsome man.
