My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 419

Ernest frowned more deeply. “You got injured because of climbing the wall, didn’t you?”

Florence’s face changed between pale and red. She nodded in embarrassment.

“Florence Fraser, did you have a death wish?”

Suddenly, Ernest raised his voice, sounding so furious.

No wonder she would be injured so seriously. It rained so heavily outside and the wall was so high. He didn’t expect that she had the balls to climb the wall.

Florence lowered her head like a kid who had made a mistake.

She whispered, “I was well-prepared. I just didn’t expect that the wall was so slippery. Otherwise, I wouldn’t fall...”

Florence lowered her voice gradually when speaking. Looking at Ernest’s eyes full of blames, she couldn’t utter any sound.

She had planned to sneak out even if she would get hurt, so she didn’t think about the consequences clearly at all.

Ernest gazed at her deeply. The waves of anger kept surging in his chest. Pressing his thin lips, he raised his hand and hung up the video call.

The call was cut off so suddenly. Florence stared at the call duration time, her heart sinking.

She wondered if he was angry.

Feeling wronged, she turned around and looked at the downpour outside the window, her eyes sore.

She didn’t purposely get injured...

It was because she longed for seeing him so much.

“Little Miss, what’s wrong? Do those wounds hurt too much?”

As soon as Tammy entered from the door, she saw Florence almost burst into tears, so she rushed over to the bed.

Florence looked at Tammy, shaking her head.

“Nah. I’m just upset.”

As she spoke, Florence noticed the door was open. She looked a bit nervous when thinking about something.

Just now, Ernest seemed to be angry, so he hung up the call. She wondered if he would come here again. However, if he would show up suddenly later, the door shouldn’t be opened.

“Tammy, could you please watch the door for me outside? Don’t let anyone come into my room unless I call you.”

After a pause, Florence added, “Including the doctor.”

Tammy was confused. “Little Miss, what are you doing? You want to escape again, don’t you? You can’t do it. You’ve injured all over.”

Seeing how much Tammy worried about her, Florence felt warm in her heart.

In the past few days, Tammy did help her a lot. Florence didn’t plan to hide from her.

She directly told Tammy, “Ernest might come over later. Please watch the door for me, Tammy.”

Tammy understood.

She was relieved. Turning to look at the downpour outside the window, she said, “Mr. Hawkins truly cares about you. He’s even coming over in such heavy rain.”

No wonder Florence would try to escape in such a downpour. Tammy believed that they both cared about each other a lot.

Florence looked at the rain outside the window, speechlessly and bitterly.

She wondered if Ernest would truly come over. He must be quite angry just now.

Ernest was such a picky and tough man. If he were angry, Florence didn’t know what to do at all. She didn’t know how to coax him.

After Tammy walked out, Florence lay on the bed, looking out of the window expectantly.

The heavy rain continued without any intention to stop.

Florence’s heart was flustered. She was looking forward to seeing Ernest, but she didn’t expect him to appear either. The rain was so heavy, which would make it way too dangerous for him.

“Tat. Tat. Tat.”

Suddenly, she heard the sounds of raindrops falling on the raincoat.

Florence instantly held her breath. She looked out of the window nervously, only to find a tall and strong figure walking closer in the rain.

It rained so heavily that she couldn’t see his face clearly, but she knew that it was Ernest.

The figure with the raincoat approached her window. Then he opened the unlocked window from the outside skillfully.

Cold air came in, making Florence recognize his face.

It was indeed Ernest’s breathtaking handsome face. However, it was wet by the rain. The rain streamed down along his face, and even his eyelashes were wet.

Florence felt extremely guilty under his gaze. She cowardly reached out her hands, trying to pull down her quilt to cover her, so that he wouldn’t get more and more irritated.

However, Ernest acted faster. He pulled down the quilt and covered her.

He stared at her deeply but asked helplessly in a deep tone, “Does it hurt?”

Florence shook her head. “Not at all.”

Knowing that she lied, Ernest felt sorrier for her.

If it weren’t that Florence wanted to see him, she wouldn’t have done such a dangerous thing and injured herself.

He said solemnly, “You can’t do it again in the future. If you dare to hurt yourself again, I won’t meet you anymore.”

His tone was threatening and serious.

Florence was so scared. If he wouldn’t meet her anymore, she wouldn’t be able to find him.

Immediately, she grabbed his hand and made a promise. “I won’t do it in the future. Absolutely not.”

Seeing her look, Ernest felt his heart softened as if it was melt.

He couldn’t do anything to Florence at all.

Since she kept staying under the quilt, her hands were warm. However, his hands were as cold as arctic ice. Ernest frowned. He didn’t want to freeze her, so he pulled his hand out of hers.

“Tuck yourself in the quilt...”

Before he could finish his words, his withdrawn hand was grabbed back by Florence again.

She pulled his hand into the quilt and said with a smile, “I can warm your hand up.”

It was pretty warm in the quilt, and her palms were warmer.

As if it was burning with the flame, the warmth from her hand burned from his palm into his heart.

Unconsciously, Ernest didn’t look as cold as earlier. Looking at Florence, he pressed his lips helplessly.

Seeing that Ernest’s anger faded away, Florence finally relieved.

It turned out that this man was much easier to be coaxed than she had imagined.
