My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 449

Florence knitted her brows unhappily. Benjamin was so despicable that he even threatened Clarence with his identity and power.

But would Ernest be frightened? Moreover, in terms of family background, Ernest was actually the only heir in line of the Turner family and he was much nobler than Benjamin.

But Ernest had disguised himself and he was now Clarence. He would be in at a disadvantage if he had a head-on confrontation with Benjamin.

Florence pulled Ernest’s sleeve and said in whisper, “Leave him alone. We can buy the other necklace.”

Ernest shook his head and gently patted the back of Florence’s hand, gesturing her not to worry about him.

He then glanced at Benjamin coldly and curled his lips into an aggressive sneer.

“As for whether I’m powerful enough to compete with you or not, you will not know about the result until the last second.”

Benjamin’s expression turned gloomy and his eyes ferocious.

He had been so straightforward just now, but Clarence gave a shit to his mercy and even wanted to compete with him until the end?

The proverb was true – ignorant people fear of nothing. Didn’t he know about the power of the Turner family?

Since he was seeking death, he would not give any chances to him again. He would have to experience by himself how it felt when his family was ruined by a top-class family in the world.

A gush of killing intentions emerged in Benjamin’s heart.

Stanford slightly knitted his brows when watching this scene.

He was the young master of the Fraser family and had been maintaining a good relationship with the Turner family. Therefore, he was roughly clear of the strength and ways of doing things of the Turner family, a small family like the Jenkins family in City N could by no means resist against such a powerful family.

If Benjamin really did something bad to the family, Clarence and his family would by no means resist against it.

In the past, Stanford would show no interest in any outsiders, not to mention being sympathetic and giving them a hand. But the situation was different now. Clarence was the one that Florence liked and maybe he would become his brother-in-law in the future.

Therefore, he would not allow Benjamin to do something bad to Clarence.

“Since you’re now in the Fraser family, you’re all our distinguished guests and we’ll try our best to entertain you. Please don’t damage the harmony,”

Stanford took a step forward with a gentlemanlike smile on his handsome face. Although his tone of voice was gentle, it somehow bore a threat.

Benjamin’s expression changed. He hadn’t expected that Stanford would stand out.

According to Stanford’s words, it was obvious that his connotation that Clarence was now protected by the Fraser family and that if he wanted to do something bad to Clarence, he would offend the family.

It was a trivial matter to ruin an insignificant family of City N, but it would be a disaster if he offended the Fraser family because of this.

Even though he had a high status in the Tuner family, he could not afford this consequence.

Benjamin had to suppress his surging anger and killing intention. He forced a smile and nodded his head.

“Mr. Fraser, you’re right. I and Mr. Jenkins all wanted to pay the bill for Florence, and we had a small quarrel because of this. It was all because both of us sincerely wanted to give a present to Florence, Mr. Jenkins, you won’t mind it or get mad, right?”

He looked towards Ernest with a smile, seeming to be very generous. If Ernest insisted on this matter again, he would be shadowed and look mean.

But Benjamin snatched the necklace that Ernest selected before and even threatened him. If Ernest said that he didn’t mind this, it would mean that this matter was a past and that it was simply a small quarrel.

Benjamin was at the upper hand no matter how Ernest replied it.

Ernest looked at him indifferently and curled his lips into a scornful smile.

He replied in a flat tone, “Since Mr. Turner is so gentleman and generous, please give the necklace to me.”

He didn’t reply whether he minded it or not and shifted the topic to the necklace.

Benjamin was now in a dilemma, not knowing whether if he should give the necklace to Clarence or not.

If he gave the necklace to him, he would miss the change to gift it to Florence. Originally, he intended to humiliate Clarence, but now he was embarrassed. If he refused to give it to him, he would appear to be mean and hypocritical.

Ernest was much more scheming than Benjamin.
