My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 468

Under the stares of so many pairs of eyes, Ernest’s expression remained calm and collected.

He slowly opened his mouth and said, “You can’t take spicy food yet.”

In the past few days, Florence had eaten only light food, watching her diet carefully.

But she was someone who enjoyed spicy food, after so many days of taking light food, she couldn’t take it anymore.

Now that she could join everyone for meals, of course she wanted to eat a few pieces of spicy chicken to satisfy her craving.

Florence raised her eyes and looked at Ernest pitifully.

She said, “I’ve already recovered, I’ll just eat a little, just two pieces.”

Her voice was soft and gentle, as if flirting, it made people’s heart soften and couldn’t bear to reject her.

Ernest’s gaze flickered, his voice gentle, but his attitude was firm.

“Nope.”

Florence, “…”

She pouted, extremely unhappy, Ernest was being too bossy.

She looked at the spicy chicken cubes on the dish with reluctant eyes, unwillingly retracted her chopsticks, and said pitifully, “Fine, I’ll not eat it, I’ll eat them in two days.”

Looking at her pitiful expression, Ernest gave smiled dotingly.

His chopsticks swung around, and rested on a dish that was light but flavourful. He picked up a piece of meat and put it in Florence’s bowl.

“Eat this.”

Even though it wasn’t as spicy, the sauce concocted by the chef was extremely fragrant, it was also delicious.

Florence gave a laugh, picked up the chicken happily, and started eating.

Victoria looked at the interaction between the two of them quietly, and gave a satisfactory smile.

The concern that Clarence had shown Florence, was considered extremely attentive, but most importantly, he was gentle but firm, and could keep Florence in place.

If it were them, once Florence had flirted with them just now, they would have let her eaten a few pieces.

But not only could Clarence make Florence not eat, but he could also make her happy in the mean time.

If in the future, Clarence could be by Florence’s side taking care of her, they would not have to worry anymore…

“Uncle and aunt, cousin and I have been here disturbing you guys for quite some time, sorry for troubling you. Once Florence has recovered after a few days, we should also be heading back.”

With a smile on her face, Phoebe said.

Their sudden intention to head back made Florence suddenly stopped eating, her heart suddenly filled with anxiousness.

Why didn’t they mention to her that they were heading back?

If Ernest left…

Even the thought of it made Florence’s face pale, she couldn’t bear to leave him.

Victoria was also slightly taken aback, she didn’t expect Phoebe to mention about heading back now, but this was also within expectations, they were visitors, and had to head back soon.

But, when Victoria saw Florence’s fallen face, she felt a little sad and she couldn’t bear to see her like this.

Florence’s mood had only gotten better recently, if Clarence left, she would be crestfallen for a few days again.

What’s more, the key issue was that Florence and Clarence’s relationship had not settled down yet. If Clarence left, their long-distance would result in Florence thinking about Ernest, and her relationship with Ernest would be rekindled.

This was not worth the loss.

Victoria pursed her lips, laughed, and said gently,

“You guys are Florence’s closest friends, and so you are family to us, there’s no such thing as disturbing us. What’s more during this period of time, you guys are here keeping Florence company, she has been so much happier. I have to thank you guys for that.”

Phoebe was surprised by the sudden praise, “Aunt you are too polite, we had fun here too.”

“If you guys had fun, then stay back for a while more.”

Victoria continued smoothly, and gave Clarence a meaningful look, “After some time, when Florence is feeling better, you guys can bring her for travelling.”
