My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 206

As if he had noticed Florence’s confusion, Reynold got much closer to Florence and whispered in her ear, “In fact, I can’t drink much as well. But they wouldn’t skip any chance to make me drink. If I continue staying here, I’m afraid I’ll be drunk as well.”

It turned out that misery loved company.

Thinking about leaving with Reynold, Florence had someone in the company, so she made up her mind.

“All right. Let’s go. How can we escape from here?”

“Pretending to use the restroom.”

As he spoke, Reynold stood up. Pulling Florence, he strode towards the outside.

Someone noticed him and asked, “Reynold, where are you going?”

“The restroom.”

The man also noticed Florence who was following him. He asked again, “How about Florence? Is she also going to the restroom?”

Florence blushed, looking so guilty.

The question also sounded so ambiguous.

Feeling awkward, she didn’t know how to answer him.

At this moment, Reynold answered the man for her, “Florence has never been here before. She can’t find the restroom, so I’m showing her the way.”

It was a good excuse.

However, several male designers from Riverside City raised a spoof and started teasing them, as if Reynold and Florence had an affair.

They were heading to the restroom, but suddenly the action became so ambiguous.

Florence had a stronger migraine when hearing their jokes, wondering why those men’s minds were so nasty.

If they continued staying in the booth, they might imagine some more rumors.

Immediately, she said, “Mr. Myron, shall we leave?”

“Sure,” Reynold agreed immediately.

He turned around and walked out of the booth, ignoring those noisy men.

Since the protagonists had gone, those men didn’t have the target to make fun of, so they sat down again and continued to drink.

Erica, who always had fun, was staring at the door without a blink, slightly frowning.

Although those men were just teasing, Florence was Mr. Hawkins’ fiancee, after all. If she had some scandal with another man, would it impact Mr. Hawkins’ reputation?

When she was hesitating that if she should follow them, a glass of wine was handed in front of her.

It was a female designer from Riverside City. She said to Erica friendly, “Erica, I’ve paid attention to your works before. You are really an excellent designer. I admire you very much. I hope I can’ learn a lot from you in the following days.”

“Certainly. Wish us pleasant cooperation.”

Erica’s attention was distracted completely, so she could only keep talking with the designer.

On the other side, Reynold took Florence out of the bar from the back door.

Walking out of the small door, they arrived at a quiet street, which was completely different from the noisy bar just now.

Suddenly, there was only silence around her. Florence felt so relaxed and comfortable.

With admiration, she said, “Mr. Myron, you are awesome! You even know such a hidden back door of the bar.”

Since their booth was on the top floor, they could see everything from the above including the exit.

If she walked out from the main exit, her coworkers would absolutely see her.

Since they came out from the back door, it was secret. They made a perfect escape.

Reynold answered casually, “If you’ve been here more often and got to know the bar well, you would know it.”

Florence felt a bit surprised ... she hadn’t expected that Reynold, who was considered as a god, was also fond of hanging out in a bar.

Besides that he was a noble gentleman, he was more like an ordinary human in this case.

Reynold pointed at the road in front and said, “There’s a river in front and a park built along the river. The environment was quite good. The air is fresh at night, too. Shall we have a walk and sober up?”

Florence felt a bit dizzy after drinking, and she always wanted to enjoy the night breeze.
