My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 496

The fruit juice bottle in Florence’s hands dropped to the ground with a bang.

Her face turned as pale as a sheet of paper, and she was trembling violently.

So Benjamin had seen it?!

She was finished! This matter could no longer be handled properly.

Benjamin turned around to look at Florence, the smile on his lips even more sure and arrogant.

Ernest stared straight at Benjamin, his grave expression suddenly changed to one of indifference, the corner of his lips raised in a sarcastic smile.

He turned around and sat down casually on the bench.

“Mr. Turner, are you addicted to calling ‘brother’? Didn’t it hurt enough last time?”

His tone was mocking and scornful.

As if he was talking to a shameless man that was kneeling on the ground.

The smile on Benjamin’s face froze and turned into one of awkwardness.

He gritted his teeth, “Aren’t you afraid that I will tell people about the messages on your computer? Ernest, you still have time to be honest with me, if I am satisfied I will let you go.”

“Then go ahead and tell.”

Ernest said indifferently, his posture calm and collected, “If you have anything to say, go ahead.”

Benjamin’s expression froze a little, his lips twitched, but he didn’t manage to say anything.

Florence looked on stunned at the confrontation between the two men. She then turned to look at Benjamin’s defeated and angry expression. She suddenly understood.

Benjamin had seen nothing just now, he was only acting, intentionally bluffing them.

If Ernest had been shocked and lost his calm, they would have been exposed.

That was close.

As an afterthought, Florence shuddered in fear. This Benjamin could stoop so low.

She said in disgust, “Mr. Turner, have you not made enough fuss about the face examination last time? Now you’re even here accusing Clarence of being Ernest. If you continue this way, even if I have to make a fuss, I wouldn’t allow you to stay at the Fraser family as a guest!”

Florence said the last two words heavily, reminding Benjamin that he was only a guest, that he was an outsider.

The owner had the right to chase him away at any point in time.

Benjamin’s expression was unhappy, feeling extremely unsatisfied.

Even though he hadn’t managed to successfully bluff Clarence, but he had managed to surprise Florence. Her reaction to dropping her fruit bottle was too real, and that had reflected her guilt.

This guy in front of him, there was an eighty to ninety per cent chance that he was Ernest!

Benjamin pursed his lips, tightening his fingers in the pocket of his pants, he pressed on something, and with a calm look, as if nothing had happened, he sat down next to Clarence on the stone bench.

He laughed and said, “I was just joking around just now, even if I saw anything, I wouldn’t say anything, don’t worry.”

Ernest showed no expression, ignoring him.

Florence on the other hand stood outside the pavilion, her mood extremely unhappy. She had already said such awkward things to him, why didn’t Benjamin want to leave yet?

What did he want by staying back here? What other tricks does he have up his sleeve?

Florence looked at the computer in front of Ernest, her heart still felt restless, she was worried that something might happen.

She said, “Mr. Turner do you have anything else? If not, we won’t accompany you anymore.”

This place had such a nice view and location, it was specifically chosen by Florence. However, now that Benjamin was here affecting her mood, even though she felt reluctant, it was better if she left.

“No hurry, I indeed have something to say.”

Benjamin’s face carried a smile, he turned to look at Florence, and said in a gentlemanly manner, “Flory, I have a lot to say, can I trouble you to go bring some red wine and fruit juice.”

Florence’s temples throbbed, she didn’t believe that Benjamin was going to say something good.

What’s more, he wanted to divert her, what did he want to do to Ernest?
