My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 215

Ernest was applying the ointment for Florence. Looking at the broken red lips, he felt sorrier and sorrier.

He even regretted it, blaming himself for being so rude just now.

He moved extremely carefully, bit by bit, afraid that it would cause pain.

The ointment made Florence feel cool. Still feeling pricking, Florence frowned.

“Does it hurt a lot?” Ernest asked in concern.

Florence looked up, only to find that worry was written all over his pretty eyes.

Inside, her face was reflected as well, so clear and enlarged.

It seemed that she was the only one in his eyes.

With such an illusion, Florence withdrew her gaze quickly.

She shook her head, “Nothing.”

Ernest still couldn’t rest assured. He pulled out the phone. “I’ll call my doctor to come over.”

“No, thanks.” Florence grabbed his hand to stop him immediately.

She said in a panic, “It’s really nothing. Please don’t make a fuss.”

Ernest’s big hand was grabbed by Florence’s.

He frowned, “Are you sure?”

“Yes, I am.” Florence nodded.

Ernest gave up the idea to make a phone call. He just remained in the posture, his hands grabbed by her.

Florence felt a bit weird, but she couldn’t tell why. After several seconds, she suddenly realized that she was still holding his hand, wrapping it completely.

It looked so intimate.

She was frightened and let go of him instantly. “I’m sorry. I was just anxious.”

Her flustered face looked more adorable in Ernest’s eyes.

He curled up his lips into a smile. “You don't need to apologize. You can hold my hand as long as you like.”

His tone was full of affection and ambiguity.

Florence’s face turned redder. She truly didn’t mean to do it, but how come he spoke in such a way?

Before she returned to her senses from the embarrassment, Florence saw Ernest walking towards the bathroom. She understood that he was going to take a shower. Immediately, she turned around.

“I’ll go out first. Call me when you are done.”

“It’s midnight. Do you want to go out in a bathrobe,” Ernest asked.

Florence paused. It was indeed not good for her to go out in a bathrobe.

However, there was nothing else in her wardrobe.

Ernest walked into the bathroom and turned around. He didn’t close the door. Instead, he was leaning against the door and gazing at Florence’s back.

“It’s cold outside. I don’t mind you staying here.”

Staying here? The glass wall was so transparent. Florence felt awkward.

She didn’t think it was a good idea at all. When she was about to insist on going out, she heard the man’s voice again.

“Why? Do you think you would peep at me? Or, do you think you can’t help peeping at me?” Ernest said with a smile on his face. His tone sounded quite serious with a trace of scoff.

Florence clenched her hands. “No, I don’t.”

“In fact, if you peep at me, I don’t mind.” Ernest finished his words and walked into the bathroom, closing the door behind.

Hearing the sound of closing the door, Florence stood at the spot with a blushed face in shyness. She didn’t know whether she should stay or go out.

If she went out, would it mean that she wanted to peep at him or couldn’t help peeping at him?

However, if she didn’t go out, the walls of the bathroom were all glasses. Even if she didn’t watch him deliberately, she would see his naked body more or less.

Hence, as a result, Florence kept her current posture with her back to the bathroom, standing at the spot for almost twenty minutes.

It was such a long time and it was late at night. Besides, she had been busy for a whole day during the daytime. She suddenly felt so sleepy, almost falling asleep.

When Ernest finished taking the shower, seeing she standing at the spot and looking so sleepy, he frowned.

His inner voice called her a silly woman.

He strode over and helped her up to stop her from falling.
