My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins
Chapter 414: The Gift
Florence went back to her room and called over Tammy.
Without giving up, she asked, “Tammy, my brother isn’t home in recent two days. Do you know what he’s busy with?”
Tammy shook her head. “What Young Master is busy with should be the business outside the family. I’m just a maid in this villa. I don’t know anything.”
It was the answer that Florence had expected.
Feeling helpless, she could only nod and let Tammy leave her room.
However, she became more and more and uneasy.
Ernest suddenly had become so busy, and the time just matched with the time when Stanford couldn’t come home. Besides, Victoria seemed to be hiding something from her. Comparing the three matters together, Florence believed that they had something to do with each other.
However, none of them wanted to tell her.
The more she thought, the more uneasy and annoyed Florence became.
For a whole day today, Ernest had limited time to interact with her.
Florence was so depressed. When the evening came, she didn’t hope that Ernest would come to see her again.
Unhappily, she took a shower, put on her pajamas, and lay down on the bed.
Feeling bored, she browsed through the websites while checking the time, waiting for Ernest’s “goodnight” message.
However, at eleven o’clock, she didn’t receive the message as usual.
Looking at the message box, Florence turned pale gradually, feeling flustered.
She comforted herself that it was probably because he was way too busy, so he couldn’t send it on time.
Hence, she kept waiting. However, it was ten past eleven, but no new message came in.
It seemed that he wouldn’t send her a goodnight tonight.
Florence’s heart kept sinking as if it was pulled down by an invisible hand. She felt drowned.
All her worry in the past two days rushed to her. She couldn’t help recalling about the mattes that he was hiding from her, his ignoring and cold, and his perfunctory to hang up the phone when she called.
Florence kept thinking about Tammy’s words.
“Most men abandon the old for the new. They are fond of the novelty. Mr. Hawkins has been after you all the time probably it’s just because of his persistence. For a superior man like him, he wouldn’t be reluctant if he hasn’t gained your heart yet.
“However, after he has achieved his goal, his persistence would naturally be gone.”
