My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 28

Florence rushed out of the Director’s office. She could only breathe normally after a while, and her face was still flushing.

She needed to complete her design as soon as possible, or else she didn’t know what kind of embarrassing stuff could happen if she kept staying in Ernest’s office.

Almost all the staff in the Design Department had gone home. When Florence went back to take her bag, and she saw Cooper was still in the office.

Cooper was playing mobile games on the couch.

Florence walked over, “Why are you staying back?”

She could understand if it is for work, but game? It doesn’t make sense.

Cooper put down his phone right away, “I was waiting for you.”

Florence looked surprised. Cooper chuckled, “You said you are going to treat me dinner. Did you forget about it?”

Florence smiled in embarrassment, “No, I did not. Let’s go. What do you want to eat?”

Cooper asked, “Entirely up to me?”

“Of course. Any place you like.”

“Then I shall take you to a special place.”

Florence and Cooper chatted as they walked out of the office building. Laughter filled in along the way.

When they arrived at the exit, they called a cab and headed to the restaurant Cooper mentioned earlier.

After the cab drove away, a Lamborghini stopped in front of the office building.

Timothy, who sat in the driver seat, looked nervous. He looked at Ernest who sat behind from the rear-view mirror in a worried look.

Earnest just got off from work and left the office. He purposely asked Timothy to come to the exit of the building to pick Florence up.

However, they saw Florence left with another man when they arrive.

Timothy spoke with an uneasy tone, “Mr. Hawkins, Ms. Fraser has left. Where do we go next?”

Ernest’s lips sealed tight. He was sitting in the back seat, and his handsome face looked cold.

He answered in a cold tone, “Go home.”

Timothy held on to the steering wheel. He could felt the depressing atmosphere in the car. Mr. Hawkins was angry…

Cooper brought Florence to a restaurant which was located far away from the crowded place. There were only a few customers in the restaurant, and it made the restaurant a quiet place.

The ambience of the restaurant was especially praiseworthy.

It looked exquisite and refined. At the same time, it also provided a fresh and comfy ambience for those who dine in here.

Florence fell in love with the place almost immediately.

Cooper seated Florence besides the window, “You can always come here if you ever need a quiet place for inspirations.”

Florence gasped in admiration, “This is a great place. How did you find it?”

“When I was still drawing, I like to draw in quiet and exquisite places. I found this place when I wandered around.”

Cooper smiled, but his eyes showed signs of sorrow and nostalgia.

He used to be a regular of this place…

Florence was admiring the view outside of the window, so she didn’t notice Cooper’s mood change. She asked casually, “So, why did you stop drawing?”

Cooper got the first place in the admission examination.

But before he enrolled, he became an exchange student and flew to Europe to study another course. He only got back in the country three months ago.

This is why Florence had never met him after the admission examination.

Cooper was stunned for a second, then he replied in a helpless tone, “Some people can never choose how their life should be.”

Florence was in doubt. She could felt that there was a sad story beneath Cooper’s bright smile.

Although she was curious, she will never peek into others’ privacy.

“What do you want to eat?”
