My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Phoebe was staring at Ernest’s side face with a fan-girl look at a corner of the lift. She secretly gossiped with Florence. “Flory, he’s really handsome, and he was domineering when he defended for you, even I have become so eager to take your place. Why don’t you strive more to avoid cancelling the marriage?”

“I hope so too.” Florence tossed her hands helplessly. Ernest had kept a distance away from her the moment they entered the lift and he had become so unapproachable once more. She then understood that he was just pretending in front of the public when he defended for her and stood with her back then, since she was still his nominal fiancée this one month.

Reluctant to think of anything unrealistic any further, she digressed and asked with a low voice, “Phoebe, have you found out who that man is?” She clenched her fingers subconsciously when she mentioned him. The only way to save herself now and avoid getting caught by him was to find him out first.

Phoebe shook her head. “I can’t find him, but I was informed that someone important is looking for you, and I’m afraid it’s him.” Florence instantly felt a chill down her spine and her hair bristled. Wouldn’t that mean he would find her soon enough? “But don’t worry, the surveillance cameras at the Style Hotel have broken and it’s not an easy task for him to find you. You still have time to make preparations to deal with him.” Florence rolled her eyes at her and secretly blamed her for not finishing her words at one go. That had scared the daylight out of her.

Phoebe clung to her and made faces at her. “Why don’t you take the time to win Ernest Hawkins’ heart? With him backing you up, no matter how great the man’s capability is, he won’t dare to lay a finger on you anymore.” Florence glanced at Ernest. Although he had turned his back against her, he still looked elegant and was surrounded by a charismatic aura.

It tugged at her heartstrings, but also forbade her to come any closer. By looking at Florence’s expression, Phoebe could tell what she was thinking, she then continued to persuade her, “Flory, there’s no one around him and you as his fiancée has the privilege. You have a high chance. If you’re not brave enough, I could get that kind of drug for you, and I promise you’ll get pregnant and it would be too late for him to cancel the marriage.”

Slightly startled, she then realized they were going to reach the engagement hall when the lift opened its door, and there would be lots of people watching from the outside. She quickly kept away all her out-of-place thoughts and held his arm, standing there with mannerism. With a soft ‘ding’,

The guests who were going to toast also stopped their movement. “I’m alright, granny.” Florence shook her head and tried to stay awake. She did not want the progress of the banquet to

for too long while standing, her legs went numb and she lost balance as she moved, falling straight onto Ernest. Ernest did not have any intention to lend her hand and he wanted to dodge, but his movement froze when he noticed Georgia and Florence fell straight into his arms the next moment. She was instantly surrounded by the man’s masculine odor and the man’s domineering aura made her heart leapt. Ernest’s body went slightly stiff but there was not much change in his expression. He looked down
