My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 200

Flustered, Florence hurriedly lowered her body to hide herself.

On the other side, Erica was making an arrangement and hadn’t got on the car.

When she saw Ernest, she stooped respectfully to greet him, “Good morning, Mr. Hawkins.”

Ernest had been in a good mood recently. He nodded as a response although his handsome face was still expressionless.

Erica seemed to be encouraged and continued with a smile, “Mr. Hawkins, you’re really good to Miss Fraser. You’re busy with your work every day, but you still come out in person to see off…”

Florence, who was hiding in the bus, felt nervous when she heard the words.

She tried to hide herself, but Erica exposed her at the next moment!

Florence was so anxious that she felt like her heart was going to jump out of her throat. At the critical moment, she grabbed her colleague’s bag and threw it out of the window.

With a loud sound, the bad landed right in front of Ernest.

Ernest stopped and looked towards the window coldly.

He was exuding a cold aura.

Florence’s colleague, the bag’s owner, stood up in a panic, “Mr. Hawkins, I didn’t throw it to you. It was…”

However, before she could finish her words, Florence tugged her sleeve.

Florence looked at her pitifully and said in an extremely low voice, “Tell him that you accidently threw it out of the window. I promise you’ll not be punished.”

Her colleague’s face became paler. She was in a dilemma, “But…” She didn’t dare to deceive Mr. Hawkins!

By the way, why did Florence act so weirdly? Mr. Hawkins was here, but why did she hide herself?

Fearing that Ernest would notice the commotion here and doubted something, Florence hastily told her colleague, “Jessica, if you tell him that it’s me who throws the bag, I will not admit it. Ernest will only believe in my words, but not yours.”

You would offend your CEO and his fiancée if you do that.

Jessica Leon’s forehead broke out into cold sweats. What sins had she done in her previous life that she had to suffer this in this life?

She looked at Ernest with fear and stammered, “I… I’m sorry, Mr. Hawkins. It slipped it down just now.”

Ernest took a cold and indifferent glance at Jessica and then shifted his gaze.

Ernest then left.

Then the stressed-out ambience in the car was relieved and everyone felt like they had survived a disaster.

Luckily, Mr. Hawkins didn’t go into it.

Jessica felt all the strength in her body were drained out and she slumped down onto the seat.

Florence popped her head out of the window and stole a glance at the direction where Ernest left. When she saw Ernest getting on the car that was parked by the roadside and left, she heaved a sigh of relief.

Phew! Ernest almost found him.

Erica watched Ernest’s leaving and then rushed up onto the car and began to blame Jessica, “Jessica, what are you doing? Can’t you hold your bag? It fell down just now! Luckily, it didn’t hurt Mr. Hawkins, otherwise, you’ll be a dead meat! Since you were so careless just now that you almost angered Mr. Hawkins, you have to be punished. Your reward for this month will be cancelled!”

“What?”

Jessica felt more despaired.

Since Florence was the culprit of this accident, she felt sorry that Jessica was blamed because of her and hurriedly stood on her feet, “Erica, you mistake her. It was me who threw the bag, not Jessica.”

Erica changed her rigid expression into an amiable smile when she saw that it was Florence.

“Miss Fraser, she was wrong. You don’t need to defend her.”

“You really misunderstood her. It was me who threw the bag out of the window. Everyone in the bus has witnessed it. Please don’t punish her. You can deduct my reward.” Florence said with a resolute look.

Jessica looked towards Florence surprisingly. Because of her defense, her resentment towards Florence disappeared.
