My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 254

After sitting down, Florence didn’t struggle too much because all the attendees had known that she was Ernest's date, although she wasn’t used to sitting next to him when there were so many people around.

She decided to sit obediently to avoid another incident happened.

Seeing that Florence was sitting still next to him but didn’t talk, Ernest felt a bit annoyed.

It seemed that he still needed to keep putting effort to make up his relationship with her.

He asked in a flat tone, “I have a dinner party this evening. Would you like to go with me?”

Hearing that Ernest was talking to her all of a sudden, Florence shook her head to refuse.

She still believed that it would be better for her to keep her distance from him.

“I’ll have dinner with Tina alone. Don’t you want to explain what has happened just now and change her impression of you?” She heard the man’s elegant voice again.

Florence immediately looked over at him and nodded in agreement, totally forgetting her principles.

“Sure. I’ll go with you.”

Seeing her vivid expression, Ernest curled up his lips without speaking.

Florence couldn’t guess what was in his mind, wondering if he was angry about her refusal at the beginning.

Thinking that she couldn’t let go of such a valuable chance, she rarely took the initiative and talk to him, “Mr. Hawkins, I didn’t know you have such a large network. It seems Tina respects you very much. It’s indeed my pleasure to know you.”

In fact, despite their personal relationship, it was indeed her honor to know him.

Otherwise, she might need to struggle for decades or even half her life to reach the door of this fashion show.

Ernest seldom heard the compliment from her. Although he knew that it was because of the dinner party tonight, he still felt delighted.

Also, he knew to stop where it should, so he didn’t continue pushing her hard.

He answered gently, “The network is quite important for a businessman. It’s not strange for me to know people in the fashion business. If you are interested, you can attend such occasions more with me. Then you’ll know a lot of people that you want to know.”

He implied that if she kept being with him, it wouldn’t be difficult for her to attend such occasions as the dinner party tonight.

Florence hadn’t expected that he would be so easy-going. She nodded with gratitude.

“Thank you, Mr. Hawkins.”

Hearing her distant words, Ernest’s expression changed from being friendly to cold again.

“You’ve thanked me twice in just ten minutes.”

They shouldn’t be so polite and distant from each other.

“Have I?” Florence smiled, pretending not to understand what he implied.

He wanted to help her, so it was natural for her to thank him.

Soon the lights were out in the hall. The fashion show began.

Florence titled her body, looking over at the runway.

Shortly, the tall models with good shapes walked out from the backstage in catwalk one after another.

On their bodies, there were the latest and state-of-the-art designs, which would be destined to become a blockbuster in the fashion business.

Florence was shocked by the design works one after another, fully concentrating on them.

She hadn’t noticed at all that Ernest was looking at her while sitting next to her.

To Ernest, he hadn’t had many interests in the fashion show. Even he might have a little interest just because of Florence, he was fully attracted by her.

At this moment, she looked at the runway wholeheartedly. In her ink=black pretty eyes, the stunning design works, and lights were reflected, making her eyes as black as obsidian and as shiny as the stars.

She was pure and simple, but her image kept flashing in his mind, making him unable to tear off his gaze from her.

It seemed that she was the most gorgeous one in this hall.

Florence fully concentrated on the show for a long time. Suddenly she felt a bit thirsty, and subconsciously she reached out to get the water bottle next to her feet. However, she fumbled for it for a while but failed to get it.
