My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 209

Back to her room, when Florence was washing her face, she still felt a bit embarrassed when looking at the skincare products given by Reynold.

It turned out that when he gave those things to her, he was hitting on her.

But she was so silly that she thought it was because he was a nice man.

She decided to ask him about the price of those things when meeting him next time and she would give him back the money as soon as possible.

When Florence was in the bar, the hotel staff had already cleaned her room and changed the beddings.

Although she had a long day, when Florence was lying on the bed, she was still sleepless.

She pulled out the cell phone and browsed. Except for the messages from her friends, Ernest didn’t call or send her a text message or a WeChat message.

And now it was past 2 AM.

He must have known that she escaped long ago.

However, he didn’t call her or try to contact her.

Staring at the clean desktop of her cell phone, Florence was in a daze. She couldn’t imagine Ernest’s attitude towards this incident ... would he be angry or would he not care at all?

He didn’t contact her, so she thought perhaps he didn’t care.

Although he wanted to marry her, as an arrogant man, he would felt humiliated because she stood him up.

Florence thought probably he was angry and even had given up on her.

After she went back in half a month, maybe Ernest would call off the marriage with her.

That was the result that Florence had expected. However, as long as she thought about that result, she felt so stressed and hard to breathe as if there was a heavy stone pressing on her heart.

...

Since she was bothered, Florence didn’t have a good sleep at night. She still looked a little depressed when getting up the next morning.

Fortunately, other coworkers almost stayed in the bar for a whole night, so none of them looked energetic. Florence wasn’t different from them.

In the morning, everyone was napping and recovering. The first meeting after they had arrived in Riverside City was held in the afternoon.

When Florence entered the meeting room, there were a lot of attendees already.

As soon as she found a seat to sit down, a few co-workers looked over at her.

The man called Steven spoke first while looking at Florence ambiguously, “Florence, you didn’t come back after going to the restroom. Where have you been?”

Florence was taken aback. She didn’t expect that they still remembered her whereabouts last night and that she didn’t go back to the booth after going to the restroom.

Didn’t they focus on drinking last night? Why did they remember everything so clearly?

At the thought that she escaped with Reynold last night, Florence felt a bit guilty.

“I was drunk last night, so I came back to sleep.”

“Only coming back to sleep?” Steven questioned again in disbelief.

Another man next to him also echoed, “Reynold also left with you together last night, Florence. Reynold didn’t go back. You two left together, didn’t you?”

Florence was rendered speechless. They did leave together.

However, if she answered them honestly as they asked in such an awkward way, it would sound quite weird.

However, those men didn’t intend to let go of Florence. Several of them raised an uproar.

“You left with Reynold together, didn’t you? You two... Did you...”

They didn’t finish their words, but their teasing and smirking faces mislead others to think in a certain way.

Unluckily, those kinds of matter almost happened to Florence and Reynold last night.

Under such gazes, Florence felt more guilty. She felt her cheeks heated, blushed.

She retorted in a panic, “Nothing happened. Don’t talk nonsense.”

Those men saw Florence’s reaction, truly getting their kicks.
