My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 221

“You’ve mistaken, Mister. I’m single and available for the time being. I don’t have a girlfriend yet.”

As he spoke, Reynold couldn’t help but glance at Florence. He emphasized “for the time being” inwardly.

Florence also echoed immediately, “It was indeed a misunderstanding. It doesn’t mind. It’s getting late. Shall we go in and take a look?”

“Don’t run so fast. You look like you feel guilty.”

Ernest reached out and grabbed Florence. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he pulled her closer to him forcibly. They were face-to-face, almost clinging to each other.

If he slightly lowered his head, he would be able to kiss her.

Their postures were quite ambiguous.

Florence blushed in embarrassment. There were still others watching. She couldn’t understand why Ernest could behave in such an embarrassing way.

She was so eager to break free from his grip. “Mr. Hawkins, please let go of me. We can talk in peace.”

“Talking in peace? Will you behave yourself?” Ernest spoke, stressing each syllable. When he was speaking, almost all the hot breath he inhaled went on Florence’s face, ambiguous and seductive.

The strength that his arms wrapping her waist kept increasing. His embrace was so tight that Florence could only cling to him, almost melting in his body.

They almost became one.

Florence blushed while her heart hammered. With a blank mind, she nodded in a panic.

“I’ll behave myself. I’m always obedient.”

‘Obedient?’ Ernest reechoed her answer inwardly.

If she was truly obedient, how could she come to City N without informing him? In two or three days, she could pester a man who she just got to know.

If she were obedient, there wouldn’t be any disobedient woman in this world.

Ernest gazed at Florence, but he didn’t call her bluff.

He lowered his head, and his sexy thin lips kissed her on her forehead gently.

He said in a deep and charming voice, “I like your obedience.”

As if she was struck by the electricity, Florence felt her whole body weak and numb. Her face was so red that it looked as if it would bleed.

She wondered how this man could be so seductive, just like an evildoer.

Besides, the other two men were watching them.

The mid-aged shop owner gaped at them, standing aside. Suddenly he felt so fed up while watching the two do PDA.

Reynold felt more upset. Clenching his fists, he tried hard to suppress his desire to vent his anger.

He reminded himself to remain gentle and calm.

Then, with a cold look, he turned around and walked into the studio. He didn’t wait for anyone.

The mid-aged shop owner looked at Reynold’s receding figure, and he could feel that Reynold was furious, lonely, and defeated.

He guessed that it might be because Reynold was feeling sad as a single man.

The mid-aged shop owner pitied Reynold.

Then he cleared his throat and said to Ernest and Florence politely, “This way, please.”

Florence followed Ernest in with a blushed face. She kept her head low, feeling too embarrassed to look at others.

Ernest held her in his arms, looking quite delighted.

Reynold was standing in front of a design when they walked in. As soon as he saw them coming in, he looked more annoyed.

Staring at Ernest, he said, “Mr. Hawkins, those were all design works. I’ll also teach Florence some professional things. You can’t understand those designs or my lecture. I guess you would feel quite bored. I’ve asked someone to prepare the coffee for you in the lounge. Would you like to sit there and wait for us, please?”

As he said, Reynold pointed at the lounge not far from where they were standing.

The decoration in the lounge was quite unsophisticated with a good environment. A young waitress was putting down a cup of coffee and some deserts on the tea-table.

Everything was ready.

For an ordinary person, he wouldn’t reject other’s kindness in such a circumstance.

However, Ernest didn’t care at all. He looked at Florence coldly.
