My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 177

Harold, who was at the other end of the phone, seemed to be busy with something and his breath was heavy.

But Florence had no time to care about this, “Mr. Brooks, something bad happened to Ernest. Please come here as soon as possible.”

“What’s wrong with him?”

“I don’t know. But he looks really bad. Come here quickly, please.” Florence urged him anxiously, her voice full of worries.

Harold seemed to realized that it was urgent and said hastily, “Don’t be anxious, Flory. I’ll be right there.”

After finishing the words, he stood on his feet and changed his clothes and then ended the call.

After hanging up the phone, Florence walked to the bathroom.

“Ernest Hawkins, hold on, Harold will arrive soon.”

But only the sounds of running water could be heard.

Standing at the door of the bathroom, Florence paid attention to the sounds inside in worries, fearing that something bad would happen to Ernest.

Florence felt more confused.

Ernest looked good before going out of the bedroom. When learning that Charlotte had come back, he came to find her, yet he was in such a state when coming back after a short while.

What had happened during this period of time?

Florence subconsciously landed her gaze on the ointment on the dresser and pondered: could it be that Collin came again and framed Ernest?

Why had happened to Ernest when he was downstairs?

Florence was lost in her thoughts and couldn’t calm down herself. She didn’t realize that she was quite worried about Ernest.

Harold arrived after ten minutes.

But Florence felt like several hours had passed. When hearing the footsteps, she hurriedly walked to the door and opened the door for Harold.

“Oh, you finally arrive. Ernest is in the bathroom. Please have a look at him.”

“Bathroom?”

Harold raised his brows in confusion. Wasn’t Ernest sick? But why did he lock himself in the bathroom?

Although he was confused, his major concern was Ernest and not willing to waste time, he walked to the bathroom directly.

Florence knocked on the door and shouted, “Mr. Hawkins, Mr. Brooks is here. Open the door please.”

The sounds of running water from the bathroom stopped abruptly.

Then the man’s deep voice, voice seemed to be tinged with sexual desire, sounded, “Florence, wait outside.”

“But…” Florence didn’t want to go out now because she worried about him and wanted to make sure that he was safe the first time.

But Ernest was determined and refused to open the door if she didn’t go out.

He said in a low and resolute voice, “You shall go out first.”

Florence knitted her brows.

Harold gazed at the bathroom and then shifted his gaze to Florence. Judging from Ernest’s depressive tone of voice as if he was trying to suppress something, he, as a man, quickly realized what was happening.

He gave an ambiguous glance at Florence and then said in a low voice, “Flory, please go out first. If you’re worried about Ernest, you can peep at the door.”

Oh, it works.

Florence’s eyes lit up. She shouted at the direction of the bathroom, “Then I’ll go out first.”

After finishing the words, she walked towards outside, deliberately making some loud sounds.

There came the sound of the door closing. At the next moment, Ernest opened the door of the bathroom.

Ernest was only wearing a loose bathrobe, which exposed a large part of his chest. He looked messy yet sexy.

His hair was wet with water dripping down from it.
