Chapter 26 Unexpected Humiliation
Stepdaughter?
Those three words were like thunder that shocked people at present.
Lincoln and Allison were stunned.
Colleen was also jealous.
Even the Hudson family couldn't compare with the Cooper family, let alone the Scott family
If Florence really became the stepdaughter of Andrew, then the her status would be higher than Colleen and she would be able to look down upon her.
Colleen was so jealous that she was about to go crazy. How could she bear that Florence might stay in a higher status than her?
And Florence was also surprised by Andrew's proposal.
Her biological father abandoned her, but a more powerful man wanted to accept her as a stepdaughter. Andrew's proposal was undoubtedly a surprise for her.
Andrew was very serious about it. He didn't look like he was joking, But Florence still felt it unreal.
"Mr. Cooper, are you serious?" Florence swallowed her saliva and calmed down, "Why do you want to recognize me as your stepdaughter?"
Andrew said with a loving smile on his face, "I will never go back on my word. Now that I hit it off with you, Ms. Scott, maybe this is the fate, as long as you are willing to take my proposal, then you will be my only daughter, and I will treat you as my biological daughter."
Biological daughter?
That was, even if Florence had no rights to inherit the Cooper family's property, the family would absolutely treat her well.
The offer was tempting.
Colleen longed for being the stepdaughter of the Cooper family. Why didn’t such a good thing come to her?
As a businessman, Andrew wouldn't do business at a loss. Now he recognized Florence as his stepdaughter all because he was gambling that Florence would become the hostess of the Logan family.
If he won, it would be good for the Cooper family.
"Sis," Zachary also felt excited and said, "What do you hesitate for? Just say yes. It's the best thing in the world now. If we have the Cooper family backing up for us, nobody can bully us anymore.
Zachary was telling the truth.
Lincoln's face turned red and he was ashamed.
Allison avoided looking into Florence's eyes.
Florence was not a fool. There would be only traps rather than pies to fall from the sky in the world.
However, the identity of the Cooper family's stepdaughter could really help her to humiliate these people.
Didn't Lincoln want to cut off relationship with her?
Wasn’t he afraid that she would get the Scott family in trouble?
Didn't Colleen want to bully her at any time?
Then she must take Andrew's proposal to be the stepdaughter of the Cooper family.
She wanted nothing more than the title of the Cooper family's stepdaughter.
"Good." Florence agreed. She looked at Lincoln and others and responded to Andrew with a smile, "I also feel very congenial with you, Mr. Cooper. And I just have a sense of inexplicable affinity."
Everyone knew how to talk nonsense. So did Florence.
"Well, I will prepare the ceremony of identifying you as my stepdaughter and let everyone know that you are my stepdaughter. I have a daughter now."
Florence had not expected there would be a ceremony.
So grand?
It seemed to be very important to Andrew.
Colleen's eyes were red with jealousy.
Allison was also jealous and angry, and she hit Lincoln hard.
Lincoln came to the front with a big smile on his face and totally changed his attitude, "Mr. Cooper, my daughter can hit it off with you. What a blessing for her..."
"Mr. Scott, didn't you just say that Florence was no longer your daughter?"Andrew interrupted Lincoln and pretended to be surprised, "Did you have such a poor memory and forget what you just said?"
That embarrassed Lincoln, and the smile on Florence's face deepened, but there was no warmth in it.
Zachary sarcastically said, "Now my sister is going to be the stepdaughter of the Cooper family. You change your attitude and come to suck up to her. Aren't you making a fool of yourself? Aren't you ashamed"
What he said was very soothing.
Lincoln had a complicated look on his face
Florence smiled indifferently and said, "Mr. Scott, this is the last time for me to step into the Scott family. When I step out of this door, I will have nothing to do with the Scott family. Please remember what you said just now."
Zachary sneered, "Don't be too realistic when it comes to being a human being. After all, sometimes people just slap their face too quickly. I tell you, it's too late to suck up to my sister now. You didn't hesitate when cutting off relationship with her just now. So please don't bother her any more."
With a glance at Lincoln, Andrew said to Florence, "The car just stops at the gate, let's go and discuss the ceremony. If you have any requirements, just tell me."
This place, Florence did not want to stay anymore.
Holding the mahogany box in her arms, Florence endured the pain in her waist and walked out from the Scott family.
Lincoln was about to say something but he stopped. He was too ashamed to talk to Florence.
