My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 448

Stanford’s obvious alienation stunned Phoebe, making her feel a bit disappointed.

She liked Stanford, but it seemed like he didn’t have any feelings for her.

Stanford noticed Phoebe’s disappointment and felt a bit conscious-stricken.

He pressed his lips together and said uneasily, “Thank you for your favor just now.”

Phoebe’s eyes suddenly lit up. She looked at Stanford in surprise.

He thanked her just now. It seemed like he was not that indifferent, right?

Even so, she felt hopeful in heart again. Phoebe said smilingly, “Nothing. It’s what I should do. If you really want to thank me, can you gift me a necklace?”

Stanford was rendered speechless.

He had never seen such a proactive person before.

Yet Stanford still nodded his head gentlemanly, “Okay, select one. I will pay it.”

Phoebe felt delighted. Even though it was asked by herself, it was the first present from Stanford and this was enough to make her happy.

She walked to the cabinet in a good mood and said to the shop assistant, “Can you please show me the best necklaces in your store? I want to select one.”

The shop assistant immediately took out several best-sellers and then put the necklaces on the cabinet orderly.

“Miss, these are the specialties of our store. These styles are the best good-looing and are all selling good.”

Phoebe took a glance at them and then turned around and said to Stanford, “Mr. Fraser, come and have a look. Which one looks best?”

Stanford replied expressionlessly, “Choose the one you like.”

“Now that you are the presenter, you should choose the gift.”

Phoebe looked at Stanford stubbornly and said meaningfully, “Only in this way will it show your sincerity.”

If he didn’t choose the gift for her, did it mean that his gratitude was insincere?

Stanford was rendered speechless. He sighed in his heart again that it was really difficult to cope with women because they were always pretentious and unreasonable.

Yet he had no other choice. With a gloomy expression, Stanford walked to the cabinet.

He looked down at the necklace.

They were all accessories hanging in front of the neck and the styles looked similar. Why did he have to distinguish which one was better-looking?

Knitting his brows, Stanford felt that it was really hard for him to choose one.

Florence, who watched this by the side, couldn’t help but chuckle.

She said to Ernest in whispered, “Looks like Phoebe is an invincible opponent for my brother.”

Even since Phoebe came here, Florence had seen the uneasy and hesitant expression on his face for several times.

A touch of unfathomable light flashed across Ernest’s eyes. He then pulled Florence to the cabinet in front of them.

“Don’t pay attention to them. Select one. Do you like this one?”

He then reached out and picked up the necklace.

Ernest’s hand which had clear and symmetrical knuckles added some magical charm to the necklace and made it looked more beautiful.

Florence subconsciously curled her lips into a smile. She nodded her head, “Yeah, I like it.”

“Lady, please package this one.”

Ernest directly handed the necklace to the shop assistant, suggesting her that he would buy it.

The shop assistant immediately took the necklace from Ernest. When she was about to print the bill, a hand was suddenly reached out from aside and snatched the necklace locker.
