My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 204

Florence had planned to do it herself, but Reynold had already squeezed the medicine ointment. If she grabbed it from him, it would be quite troublesome and hypocritical.

Hence, she reached out her hand gracefully, letting Reynold squeezed the ointment on the back of her hand.

Then, Florence was ready to rub it with the other hand, but a big hand grabbed it.

Reynold’s finger fell on the ointment. Although he was not so skilled, he started rubbing the ointment at a certain pace.

“I asked the nurse when buying the ointments. The scald will recover faster if rubbing it in this way.”

As soon as he spoke, Florence stiffed her action that she wanted to withdraw her hand.

He was applying the ointment on her out of kindness and care. If she acted so awkwardly, it would seem so ungrateful.

Florence could only stiff her hand, letting Reynold apply the medicine for her.

Feeling the temperature from the man’s palm and the strange touch, she still felt not quite comfortable, extremely awkward.

Although Reynold was her idol, he was still a man, a strange man to her.

Seemingly she couldn’t be used to being touched by any other man besides Ernest.

Any other man besides Ernest?

Florence wondered if she was only used to the touch from Ernest.

She was suddenly startled. Thinking that Ernest always took advantage of her from time to time, touching, kissing, and even sleeping together, she had almost been used to them...

And for his touch, she didn’t feel any resistance or discomfort.

Florence’s heart trembled. She was in a panic. She couldn’t understand why she had been so used to Ernest without any notice.

She was even more closed to Ernest than she was to Grayson when they were in love.

Reynold applied the ointment for Florence. Casting a glance at Florence, he found she was lost in thought.

He slightly pressed his lips. Sure enough, this woman was playing hard to get. Now she was lost in her fancy to him.

After it was done, Florence immediately withdrew her hand.

She thanked him politely. “Mr. Myron, really appreciate your kindness. You didn’t only offer your room to me, but also bought me the ointment.”

His hand felt emptiness again.

Reynold felt a bit disappointed. Flipped, he looked at Florence, becoming more interested in her.

She was quite good at playing hard to get, and also she had aroused his interests.

Reynold put on a more charming smile. “You’ve come all the way from City N and taken a bus for such a long time. I’m sure you must be very tired. If you don’t mind that I’ve used this room, please take a rest. When we are gathering for dinner tonight, the hotel staff would come in to clean it up.”

“How would I mind? I’m already quite grateful that you offered your room to me,” Florence gave him a polite answer, shaking her head.

Reynold smiled more brightly. A woman didn’t mind staying in the room that a man had stayed in before and she was willing to continue staying here. If that was not a hint, what was it?

“Okay. Please take a good rest. Let’s go to the bar together in the evening.”

“All right.”

Florence nodded her head.

From the beginning to the end, Reynold stared at Florence with a smile. His eyes were crystal clear and gentle, making others fascinate him and feel that he was so easy-going.

Hence, Reynold had become a pure gentleman in Florence’s mind.

After Reynold finished packing his belongings, Florence thanked him again and walked him out.

Closing the door, she was the only one in the room.

It was a suit, quite large, luxurious, and clean.

However, Florence took a glance at the bed that Reynold used to lie on. After hesitating for a while, she walked to and lay down on the sofa instead.

She was not a neat freak. However, after being along with Ernest for such a long time, subconsciously she was not willing to sleep on a bed that another man had slept on to avoid getting another man’s scent.

Although Florence was lying down, she didn’t nap. She was looking at the map of Riverside City, searching for the supermarkets and clothing stores nearby.
