My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 274

However, Ernest knew that Florence wanted to join this farewell party.

He suppressed the irritation in his heart and nodded seriously.

“Let’s go.”

Florence breathed a sigh of relief in secret. Ernest finally moved his frightening gaze from her. Under his heated gaze just now, she almost couldn’t control herself at all.

She couldn’t help complaining that this man, a CEO, was way too seductive.

His gaze was luring her.

Florence picked up her handbag and was about to walk out with Ernest.

Just when she walked out of the door, she realized something.

If she was going to the banquet with Ernest, it meant that she was going to attend it as Ernest’s fiancée.

However, it was the farewell banquet between the two design teams, which was supposed to be the focus.

Florence thought that it would be more proper for her to attend it as an employee.

After a hesitation, Florence said to Ernest, “Mr. Hawkins. Well... Can we go there separately?”

Ernest paused his pace.

Looking at her, he knew what was in her mind.

Feeling somewhat helpless, he realized that his fiancée refused to go to the banquet with him together.

Ernest pressed his lips, nodding. “All right. You can go there first.”

Florence was a bit startled. She didn’t expect that Ernest would be so easygoing.

Seeing him like this, she felt a bit guilty.

The venue of the banquet was in the hotel, in the banquet hall of the top floor.

After separating with Ernest, Florence took the elevator and went upstairs alone.

Outside the banquet hall, she bumped into Reynold, who was leaning against the wall casually and playing on his cell phone. It seemed that he was waiting for someone.

Florence walked over and greeted him.

“Good evening, Mr. Myron.”

Reynold immediately put away his cell phone. Seeing Florence alone, he felt a bit surprised.

“You alone?”

Florence thought about Ernest, feeling a bit embarrassed.

She nodded. “Yeah.”

Reynold didn’t keep inquiring. He was quite pleased to see that Ernest didn’t come over together with Florence.

That meant he didn’t wait for her at the door in vain.

Hence, Reynold suggested, “All right. Shall we go in together?”

“Sure,” Florence agreed, nodding.

Reynold was her coworker and friend, so it was normal for them to join the party together.

It seemed that she would overthink and care more about things when being together with Ernest.

Reynold curled up his lips happily, slightly bending his arm towards her.

Florence put on a smile on her face, took his arm like a gentlewoman, and entered the banquet hall with him.

Right then, there were quite a lot of people in the hall. They grouped with two or three, chatting and socializing.

When Florence and Reynold came in, they were seen by others.

“Wow! How wonderful! Look at the handsome man and pretty woman!” someone exclaimed.

Most of the attendees’ attention was drawn to them. They all looked over at the door.

In an instant, Florence and Reynold had become the focus.

Part of the attendees were celebrities in Riverside City, and they hadn’t seen Florence before. However, when they looked at her, they were stunned.

The aqua blue dress on her made her like a mermaid from the deep ocean to the human world.

Her beauty took their breath away and made them exclaim.
