My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 383

Looking at the escaping back, Ernest frowned slightly. He lifted his foot and chased after her.

Since they both had gone, the maid finally returned to her senses, breathing a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Mr. Hawkins didn’t punish her. Otherwise, since she had seen such a secret, the maid was afraid that she could be killed at the scene.

However, this matter was a big unethical event. She wondered if she should inform the master about it.

Thinking of the master, the maid suddenly recalled that she wasn’t only delivering the high-tea here, but also she needed to inform Mr. Hawkins to go to the study as the master had known he was back.

She was in such a panic just now and she had completely forgotten about this matter.

How terrible!

The master wasn’t so good-tempered to wait for someone.

The maid’s face turned pale in fear. Without caring about anything else, she chased after Ernest in the direction that he just left.

Florence didn’t know when she was trotting, there were two people after her.

Upon her memory, she trotted out of the house and saw Stanford sitting on the sofa, waiting for her.

Stanford was tabbing on a tablet in his hands. Seeing Florence come out, he immediately put it down.

He stood up and asked in concern, “Flory, why are you running? What happened?”

His eyes were a bit sharp. He also looked behind Florence. Since he didn’t see anyone, his face was darkened.

Benjamin hadn’t walked Florence out.

“I...”

Seeing that Stanford was quite concerned, Florence paused a bit. For some reason, she was unwilling to tell him that she had encountered Ernest just now.

Then she lied at random, “It seems my period has come. Stanford, please take me home.”

Her period?

Stanford’s sharp eyes twinkled. He didn’t expect that he would hear such a reason.

Although they both were adults, he was inexperienced to face his sister’s period... However, he heard that such a matter could make a lady suffered and be embarrassed.

That explained why Florence trotted out in a panic.

Immediately, he walked up and took her hand. “Are you feeling OK? Shall I carry you out?”

Florence knew that she just lied, so she didn’t need him to do so.

Looking at Stanford’s nervous face, Florence felt a bit guilty. She shook her head.

“No, I’m alright. I can walk myself.”

Stanford was still a bit worried. However, Florence insisted, so he could only take her hand and walk out.

When Ernest caught up with her, he had witnessed their receding figures - Stanford was leading Florence to go out of the house.

Seeing Stanford, Ernest’s eyes suddenly became colder. Although he was Florence’s biological brother, if it were that Stanford suddenly had shown up and taken Florence away, Ernest didn’t think he would be apart from Florence for such a long time.

He wanted to confront the young master of the Fraser family today.

“Excuse me, sir! Sir!”

The maid caught up with him, gasping. She said immediately, “Master is looking for you. Please go to the study immediately.”

“Tell him I’ll go to him later.”

As he spoke, Ernest was walking out of the house.

The maid was so afraid that sweat oozed on her forehead. She rushed over and blocked Ernest’s way.

“I’m sorry, Sir. Please, you can’t leave. Master said that you must go to the study as soon as possible. You know he’s so determined. If you’re leaving, I’m afraid I can’t bear the consequences at all.”

The master was Ernest’s grandpa, his mother’s father. Currently, he was the master of the Turner family, a man had the final say and acted arbitrarily.

In the Turner family, nobody dared to disobey his words.

Ernest directly bypassed the maid and strode out of the house. He was quite cold and determined, completely ignoring what the maid had said.
