She wondered what he was doing.
The man’s attack broke in full fury, which was so strong and fierce as if she would be swallowed and chewed shortly.
Florence’s heart was tightened. Her body was stiffened, slightly trembling.
She was so scared that she felt as if she was in an abusive nightmare.
By instinct, she suddenly closed her teeth with strength.
“Hiss.”
Ernest felt the pain and stopped his movements.
A red blood bread oozed on his thin lips.
He slightly frowned, gazing at Florence with surging furies in his eyes. She couldn’t tell if it was because of his anger or desire.
He still looked quite dangerous.
As if Florence had become extremely scared, she finally fought against him. She glared at him without any fear.
She questioned, “Ernest Hawkins, what do you take me for?”
What did he take her for?
Ernest was taken aback slightly. Looking at the blood on the woman’s lips and the resistance on her face, he felt like that someone had just thrown a punch on him. He returned to his senses immediately.
What had he just done? Was he bullying her?
He came back to his senses and immediately released her. “Florence, I...”
“Ernest Hawkins, I don’t want to see you again!” Florence yelled in anger and shyness.
She stood up from the sofa and trotted out of the suite without looking back.
She trotted so fast as if he was a monster.
Ernest was stiffened while sitting on the sofa. Looking at Florence’s receding figure, he felt so upset as if there was a heavy stone pressing on his heart.
He had always been calm and restrained, but he had lost his control to Florence just now.
Florence trotted out from the room. Until she got downstairs of the hotel, she slightly relaxed her tightened body.
Just now, she was almost raped by Ernest.
He was so aggressive and fierce as a bandit, almost eating her up. He behaved so rudely and possessively, which only brought her fear.
She wondered what he had taken her for.
How could he do anything he wanted to do to her when he got angry?
“Florence, what are you doing here?”
She heard a man’s pleasant voice from the lobby of the hotel.
Reynold strode over to Florence.
When he got close, he saw that Florence’s lips were swollen and her clothes were in a mess. She looked as if she was bullied by someone just now.
Reynold immediately frowned. He quickly took off his jacket and put it on Florence’s shoulders.
He asked in a voice full of concerns and suppressed anger, “What happened to you?”
Feeling the sudden warmth, Florence was taken aback for a moment. She turned around and saw Reynold.
Looking at the jacket on her shoulders, she suddenly realized that she hadn’t straightened up her clothes when trotting out of the room. She must look quite embarrassing now.
Her embarrassment was seen by Reynold.
Florence lowered her head. “Nothing. I just came out for a walk.”
She wanted to give the jacket back to Reynold. When she lowered her head, she saw that her clothes were still in a mess, so she had to bite the bullet and walk forward.
Reynold looked annoyed, staring at Florence with concerns.
He followed her to go forward. “I’ll accompany you.”
He pressed his thin lips without asking anything else. Since Florence didn’t want to tell him, he wouldn’t bother her.
