My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 47

“If I didn’t talk to Evelyn and let you go back to the hotel alone, you would not have met with the incident.” Cooper’s voice was full of guilt and reproach.

He never felt so vexed. Last night he met Evelyn and neglected Florence which resulted in the incident.

Florence didn’t think too much of it, “I can’t blame you for that. You’re not my bodyguard and had to protect me. Furthermore, it was Channing who set me up and I was careless to fall for it.”

Florence just arrived and was set up and framed but who could be the person behind it? Florence’s eyes narrowed as she thought about who would want to harm her…

“I’ll find out the one tried to frame you,” Cooper said with a very stern voice.

Cooper thought of something and continued, “I’ll keep track of their investigations and endeavor to find the culprit as soon as possible. I will also not let anyone set you up again.”

Cooper sent Florence to her room and thereafter went to look for Winnie to request to be involved in the investigation.

After he left, two tall ladies appeared at the other end of the corridor. They were Isabel and Evelyn. When Evelyn saw Cooper walking away, her beautiful face was full of disdain and hate.

“The investigation will definitely start from Channing. What if they find Channing?”

Although they paid Channing, they could not be certain that Channing would not reveal the details. Furthermore, now Cooper had joined in the investigations…

“They won’t find Channing. Last night I had someone send him away.” Isabel said confidently, “It will take them several days even if they could find Channing to prove Florence’s innocence. By then, she would already be out of this competition.”

Once they forced Florence out, she would totally be expelled from the designer industry. This was Isabel’s ultimate goal.

At this moment, a limited edition Lamborghini drove quickly towards the hotel by the beach.

Sitting on the driver’s seat, Timothy pressed his earpiece and respectfully said, “Mister, the news from that end said that they are starting investigations on what happened last night. Before the results of the investigations are out, Ms. Fraser is temporary suspended from the competition.”

The man in the back seat listened but maintained expressionless.

Timothy was unsettled and looked into the rearview mirror and wasn’t sure of Mr. Hawkins’ intent but was shocked at his method.

Mr. Hawkins was holding an important meeting which involved almost a hundred participants but when he found out about the injustice done to Florence, he didn’t hesitate to end the meeting and insisted on returning to the hotel to look for Florence.

He even called the director of Ovi Fashion Design Contest to strongly threaten him not to make things difficult for Florence.

This was the first time he saw Mr. Hawkins so openly using his position for personal gains.

During lunch, Florence went to the hotel restaurant. As she walked in, numerous eyes looked at her. Practically all of them looked at her with scorn and disgust. Some even said sarcastically, “How does she still dare to show her face here? She had done such a despicable thing. It’s one thing that she wasn’t disqualified but now she still swaggers in for lunch!”

“Perhaps she is willing to do anything to cheat. Imagine that she is even willing to sleep with a middle-aged security guard.”

“It’s so disgusting to be in the same competition with such a person.”
