My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 42

It wasn’t that Cooper didn’t have feelings for Evelyn anymore. They couldn't be together anymore. Each time when Evelyn pesters him, it would remind him of what happened in the past and he would feel upset about it. It was best that they do not have any more interactions.

Cooper hesitated and then said, “Go ahead.”

Evelyn looked at Florence and said pitifully, “I would like to speak to you alone.”

Florence didn’t want to be the third wheel and said to Cooper, “I’ll go back to the hotel.”

Cooper frowned and reminded her, “Be careful when you go back.”

They were not far from the hotel so Florence waved goodbye to Cooper and left. Evelyn glared furiously at Florence as she left.

As Florence was about to reach the hotel, the hotel staff who welcomed them during the day, Channing, walked over and said, “Ms. Fraser, how come you’re back before the party ended?”

“I’m tired and would like to rest early,” Florence replied politely.

Channing looked at Florence and said shyly, “Ms. Fraser, since you’re back, can you help me out? Everyone else had gone to the party and I can’t find anyone to help me.”

Florence looked around. Other than a receptionist and a security guard, there wasn’t any other hotel staff around.

Florence didn’t think further and asked, “What do you need me to do?”

“I need to find a very important piece of information, “On saying this, Channing led Florence towards a different direction along the beach and apologized, “I’m so sorry to trouble you. I’m really running out of time, otherwise, I would take my time to look for it.”

Florence looked in the direction of where the staff was taking her and was puzzled, “Aren’t you looking for it in the hotel?”

“Yes, but it’s at a small hut next to the beach. There’s an information storage room over there.” Channing explained and his face flashed a trace of guilt.

After a while, Florence came to a small hut with Channing. The hut stood alone at the seaside and was a great place to view the scenery.

Channing opened the door and said, “I’m so sorry, there are just too many things.”

Florence quickly looked and saw all sorts of files and boxes in the room.

She didn’t enter immediately and said, “Aren’t this information concerning the competition? I’m a participant and it’s inappropriate that I go in.”

“It’s okay, this information isn’t that important.” Channing quickly explained and hastened her, “I don’t have much time, Ms. Fraser please come and help me.”

Florence frowned and didn’t move.

Not only was this competition closed to the public, but the details of each competition would also only be announced a week prior just as the distribution of an examination paper. Anyone who got a hold of any of the details ahead of time would be considered cheating.
