My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 223

“Although you are couple-to-be, you haven’t married yet. Since you are staying together, I don’t think it’s that convenient,” Reynold said with a smile as if he was giving a sincere suggestion like a friend.

“The hotel staff said that a guest would check out today, and there would be a vacant room. Perhaps you can check in,” Reynold didn’t say it quite obviously, but his meaning was quite obvious.

In that case, Florence would stay in a different room than Ernest.

Florence felt delighted. Subconsciously, she asked, “Really?”

Seeing Florence’s reaction, Reynold could tell that she wanted to stay in a separate room from Ernest indeed. The guess in his mind was finally confirmed.

He curled up his lips into a smile happily and nodded, “Yes.”

Florence, however, didn’t notice Reynold’s reaction, and nor did she know what he was thinking. To her, it was super good news.

She was on a business trip, and so many coworkers were with her, but she was still sharing the same suit with Ernest. Although others didn’t have the guts to gossip about her, their ambiguous gazes always bothered her, and she felt quite embarrassed.

If they could stay in different rooms, Florence believed that would be much better.

With the thought, Florence didn’t have much appetite to eat at all. Hurriedly she finished eating, and then she proposed to go back to the hotel.

Certainly, Ernest was quite happy to accept it. Without any hesitation, he drove Florence back.

When they arrived at the hotel, Florence made an excuse.

“Mr. Hawkins, I just recalled that I want to buy something from the supermarket. You can go back to the room first.”

“I’ll go with you.”

Without any hesitation, Ernest turned around and walked out.

Florence wanted to send him away, so she was unwilling to let him go with her, waving her hand immediately to refuse.

“No, thanks. I can go there myself. Please go upstairs first.”

Ernest stood motionlessly, gazing at Florence. Obviously, he didn’t agree.

Florence felt a little migraine. If Ernest wanted to go with her, she couldn’t stop him at all.

Feeling annoyed, she rolled her eyes cunningly and thought for a moment. Then she stood in front of him and looked at him in embarrassment.

She said in an extremely low voice, “Well, I don’t think it’s a good idea for you to go with me to buy the things I need.”

“What is it?” Ernest asked directly without any hesitation.

Florence felt more awkward. Gritting her teeth, she squeezed a few words between her teeth after hesitating for a long while, “The sanitary pads.”

Upon hearing it, Ernest was a bit taken aback. A trace of embarrassment flashed through his handsome face.

Then, he asked, “Did it come?”

Florence didn’t get what he meant at first.

She thought for a moment and then realized what he was asking. Then her face turned redder.

She couldn’t believe that as a man, he asked her such a question.

She looked away and didn’t dare to meet his eyes, nodding.

Ernest walked closer to her, took off his suit jacket, and put it on her shoulders.

With an arm holding her, he asked gently, “Does it hurt?”

Florence was speechless.

She was agape and standing at the spot, and her cheeks turned so red that it seemed to be bleeding.

She shook her head in embarrassment.

Ernest embraced Florence, making her almost nestle in his arms.

“Shall I go with you, or do you want me to buy them for you?”

Florence gaped at him. He gave her two options, but she wanted to choose neither.

After hesitating for a moment, Florence answered with a blushed face, “Well... Please buy them for me.”

Ernest said, “All right. You can wait for me here in the lobby, or you can go upstairs first.”
