My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins

Theodore started to take action and Ernest got busy.

Florence knew that he was very tired all day. She would always take the initiative to avoid it so as not to disturb him or bother him, and never asked for him to spend more time with her in the building.

Perhaps because there were crises outside and she could not go out, she had a feeling of being locked up and was not in a good mood throughout the day.

In her heart, she longed for Ernest to be with her.

But she never said anything. Whenever Ernest went out to work, she was in a particularly bad mood. She would be depressed and her appetite was not good.

She also slept as much as she could, and slept at least a few hours more every day than before.

On this day, Florence was leaning back on the sofa in boredom and was about to drift off to sleep with a book on clothing design when the door to her room was gently pushed open a crack.

The maid's face was revealed.

"Ms, Ms. Fraser."

"Eh? What's wrong?"

Florence suddenly woke up from her drowsiness and looked in confusion at Yuna, who had been looking after her for the past few days.

Yuna smiled and said cheerfully.

"I just saw Mr. Hawkins coming this way from the roof. He's gone home."

"Really?"

Florence dropped the book in delight and stood up from the sofa in a flash.

Perhaps because she had stood up too abruptly, she was so dizzy that she almost fell over.

"Ms. Fraser, what's wrong with you?"

The maid rushed over and held Florence up with concern.

Florence shook her head, "It's nothing. Maybe I'm a bit anemic and I just got up too quickly."

The maid sighed, "You've been eating so little for the past few days and you won't let us tell Mr. Hawkins. What will you do if you don't get well?"

"Come on, don't worry. I'll eat more later. I'm in a good mood, and I'm sure I'll eat more."

Florence smiled and soothed the maid. Once the dizziness had eased, she headed outside joyfully.
