My One-month Marriage With Mr. Hawkins novel Chapter 497

After all, the person that had his face touched that day was Clarence, hence only he knew whether there were wounds on Collin’s hands, and Ernest hadn’t been exposed to it personally.

Regardless of whether he said it was comfortable or uncomfortable, it would mean that he had admitted to either one of it, whether there were wounds on Collin’s hands.

But if he gave the wrong answer, this would become concrete evidence in Benjamin’s hands.

Florence frowned angrily, indeed Benjamin was up to no good when he wanted to stay back for a chat.

He was highly suspicious of Ernest, hence he had intentionally set traps for them in his conversation, to test them.

Perhaps, he even had a sound recorder on him.

She was anxious and upset about why she hadn’t properly observed whether there were wounds on Collin’s on his hands when she was interacting with him.

But come to think of it, Collin was a doctor, he was constantly in touch with surgical knives and these types of sharp items, as well as chemical medicine and machinery, it would be normal for him to have accidentally hurt his hands.

It should be more rational for him to have wounds on his hands?

Florence was speculating in her heart, she couldn’t help but turn to look at Ernest. Her hand tapped secretly on the table, hinting at him.

Ernest pursed his lips and secretly shook his head at her.

After that, he turned to look at Benjamin, and smiled mockingly, “Looks like Mr. Turner always gets his news wrong. First, it was the mistake during the face examination, then now you’re mistaken about the wounds on Collin’s hands. Looks like your informer has to be changed.”

These sarcastic words were despising Benjamin for being incapable.

Benjamin’s expression was ugly, he felt his chest boiling with anger.

Damn it, Ernest hadn’t fallen for it.

Or could he be guessing?

After all, he was a man, why would a man observe another man’s hands?

Benjamin gritted his teeth, and said, “Oh, were there no wounds on Collin’s hands? I must have remembered wrongly, on his hands were no wounds, what’s more, he studies medicine, he has taken care of his fingers very well, they’re also especially soft, that’s why he is so meticulous during his surgeries.”

Benjamin laughed and said, “I made a mistake, Mr. Jenkins you won’t mind right?”

Ernest smiled coldly.

He could see through Benjamin’s sinister trap immediately. He was talking about feeling sorry, but in fact, he wanted to talk about the softness of Collin’s fingers.

If he hadn’t been careful and replied without thinking, he would have been caught red-handed.

Ernest laughed coldly, “Collin’s fingers aren’t soft, on the contrary, his bones are very hard and strong. Even if Mr. Turner you want to have a go with him, I don’t think you are his competitor.”

His rebuttal carried an obvious mock and sarcasm.

Benjamin was stunned and at a loss for words, his expression changed again and again.

Ernest hadn’t fallen into any of his traps, and even told him the characteristics of Collin’s fingers! Did he know this through investigation or from his touch?

Why did he know all this, how did he have such an understanding on Collin’s hands!

Benjamin was so mad that he wanted to flip the table, Ernest’s preparation was way better than he had expected.

Just when he was upset about this, two servants walked over carrying fruit juice and red wine.

They placed the fruit juice and red wine on the table orderly, and said politely, “Miss, Mr. Jenkins, Mr. Turner, what do you want to drink? Should we fill it for you?”

“Fruit…”

Florence opened her mouth but suddenly thought of something. She waved her hand and said, “It’s okay, I’ll help myself, you guys go busy yourselves.”

“Alright, if there’s anything please give us a call.”
