My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Boyfriend?

Florence flushed again when she heard the word.

She retorted uneasily, “You’re also clear of my relationship with Ernest. How can he be my boyfriend?”

“Yeah, oh yes, he’s not your boyfriend. He’s your thoughtful fiancé.” Phoebe replied in a teasing tone.

Florence glared at him with shy and fluster.

“Don’t talk nonsense.”

“I’m not talking nonsense. I was telling you the truth. Even among those real couples, few boyfriends could treat their girlfriends so well like Mr. Hawkins do. See, he’s very busy, but he still found time to accompany you to visit me and is now waiting for you, while you’re talking nonsense with me. Many women dream of having such a boyfriend. Mr. Hawkins is even more patient than those boyfriends who can accompany their girlfriends to go shopping.”

Gushes of weird feelings emerged in Florence’s heart when she heard Phoebe’s words.

She was clearer than Phoebe about how busy Ernest was in usual times. However, it seemed that he was willing to spend much time on her all the time.

Now he even accompanied her to visit her friend and was now waiting for her patiently.

Phoebe gently nudged Florence and said in a low voice, “Flory, Harold came to see me this morning and told me about what had happened to you in the party last night. Turns out that Gemma has been deceiving you and she has no relationship with Ernest.”

Florence nodded.

Phoebe continued, “That’s good! Since Ernest is not in a relationship with other woman, you’ll have the chance!”

“What chance?”

“Of course, it’s the chance to be his girlfriend!”

Phoebe said in a serious tone and with an ambiguous look, “Ernest doesn’t have a crush on the other woman and he’s so good to you. I heard that his birthday party was specially held for you, with the purpose to introduce to everyone in the city. When a man is willing to introduce to others in such an official and ceremonious manner, it means that he likes you very much.”

Florence stiffened with a dumbfounded look.

It was true that she basically met every one from the upper-class of City N. She thought that the reason why Ernest led her to toast the guests was because she was his female companion.

Florence recalled that Ernest brought her together when he went to toast the guests and he accompanied her to the lounge when she said she wanted to have a rest.
