My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 100

“Boom…”

The sensation on Florence’s lips blew her mind.

Why, why did he kiss her?

They were at the roadside outside of town. It’s dark, and there’s not even a single person passing by. The two of them were in the car, a man alone with a woman…

Florence didn’t dare to continue thinking about it. Her heart was beating wildly, feeling panicked and chaotic.

“Mr. Hawkins, stop it!”

She felt uncomfortable and bit her lips. The words came out of her mouth one by one with immense effort.

“Mr. Hawkins, please behave yourself. I’m not the kind of woman you think I am.”

The woman’s voice was soft, even with a slight tremble.

The flame suppressed in Ernest’s body was instantly roused to the highest level.

His gaze was spectral. He almost lost his sanity.

After being frozen for a moment, Ernest slowly raised his head. He stared at Florence with a profound gaze.

His tone was cold, “I kissed you just to get your mind off the unpleasant memories.”

Florence was stunned, looking at the man in shock.

His voice was too cold, sounding without any trace of desire, giving an aloof feeling.

Did she misunderstand him?

Florence’s cheeks blushed even more. She felt so uncomfortable that she didn’t dare to look into Ernest’s eyes.

Ernest stared at Florence, breathing heavily as if he was trying to restrain something. After a while, he released her.

Then he sat back in the driver’s seat with an expressionless face and drove.

The car was quiet again, but the amorous atmosphere still seemed to linger in the tiny space, causing her cheeks to blush uncontrollably and her mind to wander.

Florence patted her face. She lowered the car window and turned her head to feel the wind. She no longer looked at Ernest.

There was no talk throughout the ride.

They were back in City N. On the way to send Florence back, they passed a bar, and they happened to stop at a red light.

Florence looked out of the window in boredom. She surprisingly saw Cooper Scott, who she hadn’t been able to contact for so long.

Unlike his previous charming and energetic image, his handsome face now had scruffs. There was also a light greenish tinge under his eyes. He looked extremely haggard.

He also had a bottle of alcohol in his hand. He walked very unsteadily but didn’t forget to take a sip from the bottle.

He looked totally like a drunk.

Florence frown. She felt puzzled and worried. Why had Cooper become like this after this period of time? Did something devastating happen to him?

She turned her head and said to Ernest,

“Mr. Hawkins, just drop me off here. I saw Cooper. I’ll go meet him.”

A trace of displeasure swept across Ernest’s face. He looked at Cooper, who was staggering by the roadside, with a cold gaze.

What an utter nuisance.

“He doesn’t need your care.”

“He’s drunk. It’s dangerous for him to be alone.”

Florence said worriedly. She looked at Cooper with concern, watching out that he didn’t go too far, while looking at Ernest earnestly, “Just let me get out of the car here. It’s late at night. I don’t feel at ease with him being alone.”

Ernest’s mood got even worse.

He pursed his thin lips and didn’t speak again, nor did he unlock the car.
