My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 272

Since she couldn’t gain Reynold’s heart, why Florence could have it?

As long as Florence was Ernest’s fiancée for one day and as soon as she married Ernest, she couldn’t marry Reynold at all. In that case, Annabelle would have a chance.

Annabelle wouldn’t give up on Reynold so easily.

“Reynold, I know you are obsessed by that temptress now, so you behave in this way. But I believe you’ll see through Florence Fraser’s true colors one day. After fooling around her, you’ll get tired of this kind of freakish woman!”

Florence couldn’t help twitching the mouth corners when listening to her.

She was just an onlooker, a passerby. At most, she was the third wheel. How come she was pulled into the battlefield and became the victim that was attacked and hurt the most?

She truly wanted to defend herself.

Walking out from Reynold’s back, Florence faced Annabelle.

“Miss, I’m sure you’ve misunderstood. Mr. Myron and I are only coworkers and friends. No affair happened between us. It’s not like what you’ve thought.”

“No affair happened?”

As if she had heard the biggest joke, Annabelle looked at Florence in a disdainful and hateful way.

“I’ve seen a lot of hypocritical women, but I didn’t know you are this kind as well. You are such a bitch indulging yourself in prostitution while boasting your chastity.”

“Miss, please be self-respected. Don’t wrong and hurt others based on your ridiculous imagination.”

“Do you think it’s gonna work if you don’t admit anything? All right. Let me ask you. During this period, didn’t Reynold take special care of you? Whenever you went, he would pick you up and send you there deliberately. He made breakfast for you and had meals with you. Let alone his profession ... he even took you for field trips in the fashion industry personally, taught you everything carefully, and answered all your questions.

“Who is Reynold? I guess almost all women in Riverside City know him well. He could be very good to one woman. Even if he treats her extremely well, his ultimate purpose would just for a one-night-stand.

“He always has his purposes on whatever he’s done. When have we seen him treating a woman so patiently before? But how does he treat you?

“Just in his profession, he even didn’t teach his students so carefully, let alone taking them for the field trips to study. Florence Fraser, haven’t you ever thought about it? Why would he treat you so special and so well?”

Annabelle’s words had choked Florence, who was in a daze now.

She couldn’t help but recall the first day when she got in town. Reynold treated her so well, extremely gentlemanly, and considerate. However, his purpose was to have sex with her.

However, after that day, Reynold had changed to be a man of aboveboard. He said he would friend her, so they became friends. In the recent period, he truly treated her so well, but he hadn’t done anything over the boundary.

Florence had thought that he indeed had changed his mind, treating her as his friend. Hence, she also treated him as a friend truly.

She only noticed his change but she never thought why Reynold, such an excellent design, would treat her, his friend, so well.

She hadn’t noticed how Reynold treated others and other friends.

Upon listening to Annabelle’s words, Florence finally understood something.

Looking at Florence’s thoughtful face, Reynold couldn’t tell how he was feeling now.

Nothing relevant to romance happened between Florence and him indeed. He always knew that Florence had been treating him as her friend. It was him who always had the bad intention to her.

He had planned to take it easy and gradually gain her heart, making Florence fall in love with him unconsciously. However, Ernest’s appearance had ruined his plan.

Right now, Reynold had no confidence to gain her heart at all, but he had decided to confess his love to Florence.

Although it might be too sudden and Florence couldn’t accept it, after the farce made by Annabelle, it seemed that Florence would be mentally prepared for his confession.
